Changing Channels

November 5th 2009
The CW

The Trickster (guest star Richard Speight Jr.) throws Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) into an alternate universe where they are characters in different television series, including a sexy medical show, a Japanese game show, a forensics show and a sitcom. The brothers realize the only way to get out of this world is to play along and become the characters in the shows. However, Castiel (Misha Collins) appears and warns them this universe is dangerous and they must get out before they become trapped.

Charles Beeson directed the episode with teleplay by Jeremy Carver

Anita, in Canada unless you have cable or satilite that gets the CW or Space you can't see it, CW runs it at 8c so that works out to 9 eastern time, and Space will air the newest episode, the Wed after the CW at 9 Central so that would be 10 Eastern time. If you watch it on Space, watch Inner Space after it because they have a SPN discussion period that is always fun.

Haha okay, this sounds interesting. I wasn't sure if it was new this week

Thanks Bee! Hopefully my hotel will have cable then.

They should at least have Space.

It's a CTV sister station.

Jeremy Carver is my new hero! Why? Let me count the ways...

- Sam getting sacked! OMG!

(need icon NOW)
- Sam getting bitch slapped! Hee!
- Sam doing the STD commercial!

Ok those are my top reasons, but wait I have more!

- Dean worried about Cas

- Cas always trying to help Dean.

- Dean asking if Cas was ok.

- More epic eye contact between Dean/Cas
- Dean is a fanboy of Dr. Sexy!
- Dean wearing sunglasses at night and looking damn gorgeous doing it!
- Dean's epic sandwitch
- Sam as the Impala and Dean making him uncomfortable! Hee!
- The opening cedits...DOUBLE BIKE! FOOTBALL! GOOFY SMILES!
- Dean speaking Japanese
- JACKPOT!

and so much more! I enjoyed every single second of this episode!

Did not like the Trickster ending up being an angel.

How do we get another Trickster episode if he's an angel?

Not sure if I can crown this as my favorite episode of all time, but it's top 3 for sure! and possibly the best episode they've ever done!

Jensen and Jared were AMAZING TONIGHT!!

That was really good episode,but not the best of this season(The End is still my number one).It was hilarious,loved Supernatural opening credits, STD commercial and many many more scenes

Jensen,Jared and Richard were awesome.I was little disappointed about Trickster being an angel,but acting was so amazing especially last scene with Dean and Gabriel and the talk about family.So I didn't mind it that much.
10/10

Jensen was AMAZING in this episode! He totally made me laugh through the whole thing.

marikela_s · 11-06-2009, 07:21 AM

I lkoved the episode!! Every moment every quote.. And OMG guys playing football in shirts!!! And Basketball and Dean is again in shirt!! We've never been luckier..

And tandem bike riding?? And Dean as Dr. Sexy fan?? He was SUPER awesome fan!!

And Sam as Impala? And I can come with soo many more.. Trickster as Gabriel! well that was unexpected but soo well played. And he said loudly what we all thought about for soo long: brother vs brother! I'm in love with this episode! And the opening creedit omg that was just another show!!

**faith_in_Faith** · 11-07-2009, 01:46 PM

This was sure something new! I laughed so hard so many times and there were just too many hilarious momnets to list them all! And Jensen sure is a true genius! OMG! he's so good on everything!

And as a side not, Jared was amazing too this week.

But the ending...

I didn't like it at all.

Let's hope he's wrong!

And, yeah, still love Cas.
