Fangasm
Jared (sweaty from the run to the panel) says he hasn’t paid for a haircut in 12 years.
Jensen was laughing about a meme Jared showed him, called it a me-me and the audience helped him pronounce it correctly lol. Jared tweeted it out while on stage because they think it’s hilarious.
Jensen on how he got into acting: Well I needed an art elective and I couldn’t draw, but I figured I could make an ass of myself in front of people…
Jared: I did always like to act, but I wasn’t always this 6’4” guy, I hadn’t yet grown, so I couldn’t be a professional athlete. I was a mathlete though…I did mathletics.
Jensen: A woman in the audience just said, “hmm, sexy.”
Someone asks where Jesus was in all of the drama last season, and Jensen jokes “it’s kinda obvious” and gestures to Jared.
Fan gave the boys a gift, looked like a long fan-made Supernatural poster.
Fan starts off “Jared you’re my favorite person” Jared: “Two for two!” Then she continues: “But my question is for Jensen.”
That question turned out to be a complaint about Jensen not being at the Saturday Night Special (so definitely a win for Jared). Jensen indignantly protested that he was on a plane trying to get here, and Jared immediately began to pat him to calm him down. Awww
Jensen jokes superhero parts only go to guys named Chris, then says he does get to play a superhero, only to a 3 year old 🙂
A fan asked if they take their characters home with them, and Jared said yes, sometimes too much. He talked about how he approaches Sam — that he wants to give Sam what he deserves. So if Sam is going through something, he kind of feels like he has to as well.
Jared says that when Sam was going through the trials in s8, it was a dark time. “It was following me home.” Jared talks about how at the end of season 8 Jensen had to tell him, man, you don’t have to take this to heart so much. Jensen: He embodies a lot of the emotion that Sam goes through. But I don’t think he’s giving himself enough credit. We’ve both been doing this so long, we can kind of turn it on and turn it off.
J2 talking about how quickly they can snap into character and how it messes with the guest actors. It throws Misha off, too and they laugh.
When Jensen met Genevieve he said he was gonna call her The Vieve lol
Jensen outs Jared as a huge fan of DuckTales. Jared declared that Jensen will sing the theme song (maybe in their main panel lol?)
Jared talks about only watching animated shows all of the time (because of the kids) Jensen brings up Game of Thrones. Jensen re-enacted JJ saying Game of Thrones like “Game of Twones.”
Jared came onto the floor to see how tall he is compared to a girl. In the pic he seemed surprised/pleased at how tall she was (looked like she was nearly his height from the pic). Jared then gave her a hug.
Apparently when Jared was hugging the fan Jensen got onto the floor as well and had like three girls hug him like, “Hey Jared, look at this” lol.
In the graveyard scene where he replies to Sam's line he loves chick flick moments with "you're right, I do" was improvised, it felt more big brotherly and emotional in that moment.
3:15 PM J2 Main Panel x (v)

J2 come running into the panel out of nowhere. There are some chair/personal space shenanigans, being in sync. “11 years” 😛
They argue over when Jensen was last in Pittsburgh. Jared thinks it was 2008 but Jensen said he was there in 2009 when the Pens won the cup. Jared said it was before he met Gen, which was July 2008. Jensen says he’s gonna check with Gen.
Jensen: Sorry, we’re fighting. Usually that’s about the time one of the crew members goes ‘I hate it when they fight…’
Jared says this con is the final stop before s12 begins shooting. Jokes Sam is getting a new look, a shaved head. They are touching each other’s hair and beards talking about how they’re gonna get them cut tomorrow. Jared grabs Jensen’s shirt, saying it’s going to come off too 😉
Jared’s newest running song is Fitz and the Tantrums “HandClap.” Plays it for the crowd. Jensen says he listens to mainly Barbara Streisand when he runs lol.
Fan: Sorry Jared but Jensen is my favorite. Crowd: oooo Jared: That’s okay, he’s my favorite, too

They get a question about bucket lists. Jensen: Like before I die or the show because I’m afraid Dean might die before me. Jared: She just wants to know what’s your favorite bucket!
Jared: On my list is to usurp Jensen as your favorite.
Jensen wants to do more traveling not related to work. Talks about putting on a squirrel suit. Jared: Same thing. I want to put on a squirrel suit. Or a moose suit. Go through the woods lol. Wants to go skydiving.
Jared and Gen hiked Machu Picchu and were gonna do Kilimanjaro when Gen got pregnant. He’d like to scale Everest one day.
A question about eating scenes prompted some funny stories. One was about guest actress Brit Sheridan, who started to say her lines and suddenly some spit dribbled out of her mouth. Predictably, Jared and Jensen could not let that opportunity pass them by – they decided to prank her by filling their mouths with water and then letting it go when they finally spoke. Merciless! Jensen did give her some empathy though.Jensen: She drooled. It was a scene with Sam and Dean, and she drooled. It wasn’t her fault.
His other story about eating scenes was about the one with Briana when Dean finds the powdered donuts. Jensen said he could tell that Briana had a knack for comedy, so knew she’d probably be tough to break. This apparently was too much of a challenge to turn down, so he thought well, if I get enough donut in my mouth so that when I speak it’s like a plume of powder coming out, that will do it. It took quite a while, and all that sugar in his mouth made his mouth and tongue start to swell. But I got her!
Jared: She just stopped and was like it’s too much, it’s too much, I can’t. Jensen: That was a proud moment. Then I threw up. Ah! Spit bucket, that’s my favorite bucket!
Jared talks about the brothers working together, being on the same page. Jared says talking with Dabb for s11 was a lot (God, Amara, etc) so they’re getting back to “what makes the boys tick” getting into the minds of the boys, due to Mary’s return. Jensen: Yeah, ditto.
Jared says they had a meeting recently talking with Dabb about Mary, etc. Jared mentioned their meeting with Andrew Dabb and company, and said that he and Jensen know that the fans like it when Sam and Dean are on the same side. Will see a different side to them because we’re seeing them with a parent. Jared talks about how amazing Samantha Smith is.
Jensen bent over for water and Jared stared at him. So Jensen gave him the water with a lovely Grumples look and grabbed a second for him aww lol.
Jensen is really proud of the “Baby” episode. “It was cool, just us two, no crew around, and setting the cameras. Then driving around just us two.” Jensen: To find a new way of what we’ve been doing for so long, I was super proud of that. Robbie did a great job. And the crew, to get thrown that massive curve ball in Season 11 and do such a great job with it.
J2 are really in sync. Just drank “beer” together (aka the mics) after Jared tried to talk into his water bottle instead of his mic lol.
J2 whispering and having side conversations.
Jared’s stripper name is everything’s bigger in Texas. Lots of hilarity ensues. The band immediately started playing stripper music, and Jensen jumped up and sat on the floor expectantly, bouncing to the music and miming “c’mon, c’mon” to get Jared to do it

Jensen goes with the formula of first pet and street they grew up on, so his name would be Pudgy Midway and Jared’s would be Bootsie.

They discuss some bad audition experiences.
Jensen: Or when they send you 15 pages of dialogue that’s broken up into 3 different scenes and you just study your butt off and memorize everything because a lot of time casting directors don’t want to see someone walk in with their head buried in a page. So you try to memorize it as good as you can and umm…. and you get there and you got all 15 pages memorized, you just got it,you stayed up all night doing it. And they're we'll just do the first scene , — "no, I'm sorry, I spent my time memorizing this crap you call a script, you're going to sit there and listen to me say it to you." I have never said that!
Boys joke they were shocked Misha could act re: playing Lucifer. Jared honestly thinks it was awesome, he’s been in those same shoes. Jared talks about his first scene with Misha as Lucifer in “The Vessel” and Jared didn’t mess with him. Jared told him great job and Misha was like “Really? You were throwing me off because you weren’t fucking with me.” Jared didn’t want to mess him up because he was doing so good. Jensen didn’t envy that position, because Mark Pellegrino set such a tone for that character, but they were both impressed with Misha.
Someone asked a great question about what they do when the script is not true to their character.Jared: You call the writers and say okay her name is Amelia, and Sam isn’t looking for his brother why???
“We got through it.” There have been times when his vision of Sam doesn’t match up with the writer’s vision. Jared is convinced he can be honest to Sam no matter the situation, though, so if he doesn’t like something, he’ll act that, make sure Sam shows that. Adapts to what is given and stays honest with Sam all the way through.
Jensen jokes the writers would never do that to Dean. Serious answer: There are many times when lines themselves are changed. There was once an entire scene, towards the end of s11, where they felt it was written like they had put the names of the characters on the wrong lines. Without asking permission, they literally scratched out Sam and Dean and flipped every line between the two of them to make the scene fit and work.
Jared talks about how their kids go to the same preschool. Tells the story of how JJ wanted to play with Tom because they are obviously friends but the kids in Tom’s age group said she was too little. JJ started to cry so Tom played with her instead of his other friends.
During the story Jared called JJ “Jaybird” :))
Just this past weekend Jensen was driving JJ to gymnastics. She asked if Tom and Shep were gonna be there and he said no. He asked if she missed them and JJ said yeah, that she missed Tom, Shep and “Quiet” (a kid named Wyatt who is the son of another friend of theirs). JJ calls them her boys :))
If they could change anything in any season? Jared: Charlie. Jensen: Yeah. They would not have have killed off her or Bobby.
Favorite emotional ep for Jared is “Sacrifice.” Jensen jokes his is “Yellow Fever” – there was a lot of “emotional commitment” he says. Jared says his favorite tattoo is of Jensen’s face screaming at the cat. Jensen’s serious answer was the emotional scene between Chuck and Dean, he connected with it when he approached it like Dean viewing Chuck as a father figure and thought about JJ and if she had to be without him.
Kathryn showed them how to make meme’s but “none of it sank in” lol.
Last question: Will Sam and Dean do a case in West Virginia? After some joking with J2, Rob and Rich on stage, Jared answers that if the fans continue watching and supporting the show like they have been then maybe they will end up on a case in West Virginia 😉
Fans come up dressed in moose and squirrel outfits. Jared says the resemblance is uncanny. Jensen cheers: Moose and squirrel! Moose and squirrel!
The boys give a heartfelt goodbye and fist bump as they walk out.
