Visions of Winchesters: Supernatural Blog Carnival, June 26

So, it’s summer, and we’re all like loosey goosey and relaxed, so I’m not going to force us into rigid categories for our Supernatural news. In this post, we’ve got the news items and fun stories. Then, we have a separate page of spoilers. Don’t visit it if you don’t want to know.

CW Sets Fall Premieres
Supernatural will be back on the air September 10.

Tater Tops Poll: Best Genre Show
If you haven’t already, vote for Supernatural (or your actual favorite genre show, if it isn’t SPN).

Supernatural Comic-Con News and Thoughts on the First Season of the Show
Maureen Ryan will be moderating the Supernatural panel at Comic-Con this summer, so she talks a bit about the show and her experiences watching it as newer viewer.

Warner Bros. Announces Comic Con Panels
In related news, J2 haven’t yet signed on to be part of the SPN panel.

Supernatural Flashback: The Usual Suspects
Diana Steenbergen takes us back to a very fun episode starring Linda Blair, Jason Gedrick, and a creepy ghost. If I remember correctly, it was the episode when the writers addressed fan concerns that there is no way the boys could constantly get away with the dead bodies they were leaving in their wake. I still don’t understand why they never spent more time wiping their prints, but that’s just me, I guess.

Why Jensen Ackles is the Best Choice for Captain America
The Comic Book Movie site ran a poll earlier this month to see who should play Captain America. Jensen won. This is a fun fan post arguing for his casting.

Supernatural Star Jared Padalecki is Just a Big Softie
OMG!!11!1 Jared and I are the same! We both cried at Marley & Me! Seriously, though, this is a nice profile piece from the Sunday Mercury.

The Angel in Trench Coat
The Phillippine Star gives us a profile of Misha Collins and discussion of his character Castiel.

Mega Buzz
Where else can you find Jim Beaver? Apparently he will be on an episode of Psych sometime soon.

That’s it for this month. I’ll be back with another blog carnival in early August. There should be a great crop of spoilers by then!

Note to Spammers

If the spam comments touting Kim Kardashian and Miley Cyrus nude don’t make it through, it’s a pretty fair bet that the ones touting Jennifer Lopez and Fergie nude also won’t get through.

Sexist Vitamins

The commercials for the new One-A-Day targeted teen formula vitamins makes me want to die.

The boy vitamins target his healthy muscle development. The girl vitamins support her need for clear skin.

Discuss.

Now Guys Can Go Wild, Too

Have you seen the ads for Guys Gone Wild?

It makes me laugh and cry at the same time. It was only a matter of time before sleazemaster Joe Francis took advantage of those of us who prefer to ogle hot guys, and the commercials are really funny. But it is also sad that Joe Francis continues to rake in his money. At least pay the little college guys and girls, Joe. You’ve got enough money to share the wealth a little.

OMG. Vince Is Back.

I saw Vince doing the Shamwow commercial again last night. Did the hooker drop the charges? Or did they think we had forgotten about his little scandal?

Fun Websites

Here are a few of the ways I like to waste my time.

Stuff White People Like
As a white person, I endorse this site fully. I like many of the things they mention–I am white, after all–and I love the tips they give to non-white people that help them get along with us.

Television Without Pity Forums
Got four hours to kill debating the minutiae of your favorite TV shows? Then this is the place for you. I typically start with the Supernatural forum, and move on to the Chuck forum. Then I visit other shows, as time allows.

Hecklerspray
Yes, this site is based on Britain, so I don’t always get the references. But the writers have reached the highest levels of snark, and I love them for it.

What are your go-to sites when you are bored and simply need a little Internet fun?

All-American Boy Beats Brit Heartthrob

People magazine has named Chace Crawford the hottest bachelor. Yes, even hotter than Robert Pattinson.

I support their decision wholeheartedly. As I have mentioned before, Chace was my mental image of Edward Cullen, and I would have loved to see him star in Twilight. I think Edward’s creepy stalker tendencies would have been less distressing to me if they had been delivered by Chace.

TV = Background Noise

This isn’t breaking news or anything, but it makes me feel good that I am not a freak. A recent study found that most women leave the TV on as background noise while they do other things. Interesting stuff.

The World Is Good: Last Night's True Blood *Spoilers*

Okay, they are only spoilers if you haven’t watched the first episode of season 2 yet, but be warned. Read no farther if you don’t want to know the identity of the body in the car on the season 1 finale.

They did not kill Lafayette. They locked him up in some weird underground dungeon, but that is better than dead.

I love that the AIDS burger dude had a gay experience. I love that Maryann told off Lettie May. I love that Jason is so weak-minded that he doesn’t see that the Fellowship of the Sun is a bunch of money-grubbing predators. I love Terry Bellefleur and his weird fascination with Arlene’s bottle-red hair. But mostly, I love Eric touching up his highlights–even vamps need to take care of their hair.
