because in some way the episode was exactly how we view the Show - this weird melange of fictional and reality where we cross from talking about the actor to the characters without blinking.
Very true. It's even doubly the same for me, since it was set in Vancouver, but in every single episode, I'm like "Oh, they're in Stanley Park" or "That must be down in Delta."
And I loved that they obv made the episode as much for the crew as they did for us. i am sure there are a dozen more jokes we don't get (And i think the penultimate was bc the director Charles Beeson uses it all the time)
Yes, they could probably publish a little paper about all the in jokes in A French Mistake. When I talked to Jim Micharls about it, he said that there were some visual jokes that only the crew would get. Like Serge and his laser-pointer...and Bob Singer always drinking coke.
Also, I briefly dated a woman who was a PA on the Xfiles. The little she told me sounded terrible, esp as it was usually the poor PAs who had to deal with co-stars who literally didn't speak once the cameras stopped.
Oh man, that sucks. I couldn't imagine having to work 12-15 hour days in that kind of atmosphere. I really love the fact that the joke here is that Supernatural is (in reality) the complete opposite. And it's true, at least with the stunt guys from the show that I've talked to, they basically confirmed that Supernatural was a show that everyone wanted to work on and no one wanted to leave.
I actually even wondered if you had gun shops in Canada! There certainly rare as here.
You know, I have absolutely no idea where people buy guns around here. I know where you can buy hunting crossbows...which is basically just any hunting-outfitters store. And those things a deadly and massive and awesome...but guns...I've never actually seen a gun-shop, though there must be some. I've known people with guns (farmers) but I don't actually know where they got them. :P
And I'll leave the musing on angel gender for another day!
There's probably not much to muse on. I think I just have a not-so-secret desire for there to be a genderless person on TV and Supernatural has loose enough rules that I can pretend. :P
