Today kicks of the Supernatural convention in New Jersey. I will be compiling tweets and updating this blog post as new tweets come in. Fair Warning - This will contain SPOILERS for season 7. Proceed at own risk. Also, since I am writing this for various venues it will contain information beyond just the TV show. (Credit goes to Adinarj and Jessie Reed for photos and the many people who are tweeting from this event. See #njcon on Twitter to follow them.)
Corin Nemec (aka Christian Campbell) Panel:
Nemec was jetlagged since he just arrived back in the US.
Talked about working on The Stand, his co-workers there, and Stephen King.
His dad worked on The Goonies, which inspired him.
He's 6 ft tall but felt short on Supernatural and Stargate SG-1 sets.
Defended Christian as standing up for himself.
Had no idea he was a demon until got the script.
Wasn't pranked on set but hopes to come back and prank them.
Has a movie called Sand Shark coming out.
Likes to paint, especially graffiti style painting.
Claims he and Christian are both demons - black eyes and all
Wants a movie where he defeats alien zombies from Mars (Can't be worse than OctoCobra)
Talked about his most interesting scars and how the hospital knew his name as a kid
Kim Rhodes (aka Sheriff Mills) Panel:
***Sheriff Mills will return in season 7. Heads to set July 29.
If her character dies, Rhodes wants it to be bloody and not just her blood.
She thinks Bobby needs a woman who can handle a gun.
Supernatural is the only TV show she was on that she asked to come back.
She compliments Jensen Ackles as a director.
Jim Beaver's daughter loved Suite Life.
She loves working with Jensen and Jared. They were very supportive during an emotional scene.
She'd rather work with zombies than kids. ha!
Wanted to do Sheriff Mills with a Minnesota accent but TPTB said no.
Her sister is a huge Supernatural fan and showed her the video of Jensen doing Eye of the Tiger.
Took training in how to handle a shotgun.
Hasn't been pranked on set yet because her character always carries a gun. May be targeted this year.
Can be seen as a mom in Beethoven Christmas movie later this year.
Gabriel Tigerman (aka Andy Gallagher) Panel:
Started con by Vogue-ing on stage.
Was on Punk'd. Doesn't like pranking people because it makes him feel guilty. Made Jesse McCartney cry.
Wants Andy to return so he can get payback on the demons.
Recently joined Twitter. His followers are now named Gabie's Babies.
He has a man crush on Michael C. Hall.
Thinks Andy would hang out with Bob Marley and Einstein in heaven.
Combined his honeymoon with a Supernatural convention in Birnmigham.
Never had a successful pickup line but thankfully hasn't needed one in a while because he's married.
He would try his pickup line on Richard Speight, Jr. (Trickster) if had to choose.
His guilty pleasure is Teen Mom - (say it isn't so)
Disappointed the audience didn't look like the cast of Jersey Shore (BWAH!)
STAY TUNED FOR MORE UPDATES

I will update as con events continue. Thanks to all #Supernatural fans who are tweeting to those of us not fortunate to be there.
ReplyDeleteShouldn't you guys at least be crediting all the folks who are tweeting?
ReplyDeleteYou can find all the people who are tweeting @njcon. However, there are many people tweeting so I am posting in my own words the jist of what all of them are saying.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! Sheriff Jodie's back - and it's not a resurrection cuz she didn't die!!!
ReplyDeleteThings are looking up :P
I reckon she'd make a darn good hunter too - Bobby could show her the ropes. :)
Thank you so much for that summary and also a huge thanks in advance for putting together all of the other stuff that you will find from that con!
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful! Thank you so much for keeping us updated, Dahne! I adore Gabriel Tigerman to pieces. <3
ReplyDeleteI can imagine her hooking up with Bobby. But seeing how relationships went in the past seasons of SPN, I fear that she wouldn't make it through the epi.
ReplyDeleteBut she could be an asset to our hunters. For once the police will be their friend and not after them.
Bobby/Jodie please! Also, really, another Beethoven movie? Whyyyyyyyy?
ReplyDeleteIt would be awesome if she was trained as a hunter and I'm okay with her being a romantic interest. Maybe those who are interested in Bobby will fare better than those interested in Dean and Sam. After all, Marcy made it through the episode. It was just a bit gross.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I will be gone for the rest of the weekend so hopefully someone else will add tweets tomorrow. If not, I will pull something together Sunday night.
ReplyDeleteAndy was one of my favorite PiPs. I was so disappointed when he died. Maybe if Jo returns in heaven (and who knows if that's how it will go), they can meet up with Andy there too. It would be funny to see Andy's heaven.
ReplyDeleteMine too. I absolutely loved him, but to be perfectly honest, I don't want to see them go back Heaven or have anything to do with the angels. I'm probably going to get my head bit off because of this, but I'm not fond of Jo returning either. <.< It's nothing against Alona Tal, I'm just not really a huge Jo fan. If she must return, make it a flashback or make her a ghost. No returning to Heaven, no bringing her back to life! lol But if they did give us some Andy if they did for some reason go back to Heaven, that'd be just awesome. :D
ReplyDeleteI'd prefer to avoid heaven also, but my theory is that Jo is a pawn Cas is playing. So it seems heaven is the natural place for that. I'd prefer if no one came back from the dead in any capacity for two years to allow death to become significant again. Since that's not in the cards, I want to mitigate the consequences of any resurrection and have everyone turn back to their original state (dead or alive) before the episode ends.
ReplyDeletethanks for this summary :)
ReplyDeleteAh, not a bad theory at all, but man that's way harsh and cruel if Jo is a pawn Cas is playing. If it goes to that, I'd say Cas will definitely end up as the big bad this season because that sounds like something the big bad WOULD do to these boys. Yikes. How terrible and how painful!
ReplyDeleteCas said he'd be a better god, and he's probably trying to make that point. He seemed very intent on winning his argument with Dean in the finale. Cas probably remembered that Dean liked Jo in Abandon All Hope.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Airbat, Jodi could help the hunters. Hope the fans like her so she can stay on the show.
