I might have to change my mind!

I can't believe this promo! Just after saying these two are my least favourite characters they go and do this! I am loving the tongue-in-cheek nature of the video promos. This one cracks me up! I'm not sure how these would come across to those who have never watched the show, but for a fan I think they are great fun.

Also...is this more promotion for an episode than we've seen before? I feel like we're being spoiled. (heads up for mildly spoilery chat - of the speculation kind).

I'm going to be a bit spammy tonight. I want to chat about the latest CW poster - but it's potentially spoilery so I'll put that on a separate post. Also...more 30 days! :))

Or maybe just that they are the major secondary leads this season.
Carver already confirmed that S9 will see more b-storylines than ever before, with both Castiel and Crowley getting their own plotlines. It's my impression that the narrative will be divided into the Sam-and-Dean storyline, the Castiel storyline and the Crowley storyline, and that they will come together at certain points in the season.

I have seen alot of speculation that the reason Cas, Crowley and possibly other characters are getting their own independent storyline this season is that the writers / network are treating it as a test run of sorts for the spin off. They want to work out which characters would work as full blown protagonistsin their own right and independent of the brothers on the spin off :). How true that is I don't know but it makes sense.

Maybe "Oh, Crowley" will become reality after all :)

Yeah - I can see that also. I think the reality is that having the Js continue to carry the whole show after 9 years is too much (er..unfortunately...). But being family men now it's probably a big ask... It could be good. Depending what they do with them of course...;)

Actually, if we have to have less sam and dean time, this is the only way id want it. Not Cas and Crowley specifically, but giving screentime to stories that are independent of the boys. That way at least it doesn't feel quite so much like they're diminishing the bro relationship the way it would if the show was pushing them as an ensemble group, or reducing the screentime by separating them and sending them off with other people.

I might be very wrong (or I could be right and they could execute it in a way that isn't Sam and Dean focused), but this seems like Sam and dean are still together and weird about each other, and independently Cas and Crowley are sometimes going to show up to do their own things. And I am a bit encouraged by how much jensen keeps talking about how happy dean is with his brother, or how it's the only place he belongs. Both he and jared keep seeming genuinely pleased about what's happening.

Yeah, I have to admit I like that they could potentially have independent stories from the boys - for the exact reasons you state here.

At least it looks like they are starting off that way...:)

(And Jensen isn't the only one happy about Dean being with his brother...;D)

Mark Shepperd's a regular on White Collar this year. I'm not sure how much of a story line they can give him.
