Supernatural Boss Eric Kripke Spills on Dean's Soul and Plans for Season Four Posted by DarkUFO at 08:04 (Comments: 1) Labels: Dean, Eric Kripke, Season 4

Ticktock, ticktock...the clock is ticking down on the big Supernatural deal that sends our boy Dean Winchester (Jensen Ackles) down to hell in exchange for the life of little bro Sam (Jared Padalecki). Can they undo the contract before it's too late? The time to determine these things is drawing nigh—yet another reason to love sweeps—so to get a few hints about the outcome, plus a smidgen of insight into Supernatural's fourth season, join me for a brief interrogation of boss Eric Kripke.

• What's left to learn about Lauren Cohan's Bella

• What stories were left behind in the wake of the writers' strike

• What fans can expect from next season's adventures

• Click in for the answers to these Q's and more!

What's in store for us on this Thursday's episode, "Time Is on My Side"?
We continue to ramp up the tension around Dean's upcoming deadline of whether or not he will be going to hell.

I assume the drama is extended to the finale though...
Yes, there's a good chance they'll fail to save Dean on Thursday. His soul is coming due, and the boys are getting more desperate, trying to find ways to stop it. This episode is about them trying two very different, desperate methods to save Dean. Then on top of that, it's sort of tied in with a really creepy urban legend about a couple-of-centuries-old doctor living in the woods on the East Coast who basically keeps himself alive by stealing organs...We're kind of delving into that, and it's definitely one of our creepiest episodes. There's a lot of surgery while your still alive and maggots, so that's really good times. And then we really climax our Bella storyline for the season. Lauren comes in...

Does she make it out alive?
Tune in and find out. But it's not great news for her, and we show a couple of cards we've been holding onto all season, and we sort of reveal why she is, who she is and what kind of secrets she's been holding, in a way that will surprise the audience and kind of tie her into the story.

Will the boys ever best Bella again? It's been said that she seems too smart for her own good.
We were well aware of that note, and we designed this storyline for her to let the boys best her in a way. Hopefully, it will play conflicted and human, and we've already announced elsewhere that Lauren will not be coming back next year, so I think we kind of send her off in an appropriate and dramatic way.

Do you get to show everything you wanted to show about Dean's deal or was anything pivotal sacrificed because of the writers' strike?
We did get to show everything we wanted to show—it just came at the expense of every other storyline in this last part of the season.

And then about the finale, "No Rest for the Wicked," I assume Jensen Ackles' character dies and that's the last we'll see of him on the show?
Yes, Jensen wanted to focus on movies, and he wouldn't give me the 25 percent salary kickback I demanded, so he's leaving the series. Chad Michael Murray is joining the cast to replace him, and next year will be like that season on Dukes of Hazzard where it was Vance and Coy instead of Bo and Luke. Everything's gonna be a little bit off, but it'll be good...I think you'll like it.

Love it. Seriously, though, how long will it take Dean to climb out of hell?
I seriously can't answer that question...and who's to say he goes to hell?

OK, let's jump to season four! What can we expect from that? Besides Coy and Vance.
We're gonna spend a little less time talking about giant movements and war and more time talking about the brothers' relationship and how they react to that war. I think we sort of have a new species of supernatural being that we'll be introducing in season four that will take people by surprise. We have a few tricks up our sleeves.

And now for my favorite part of the show: Fan questions! Lindsay from Royal Oak, Mich., wants to know, "Do you still want to do only five seasons of the show and why?"
Yes, I do, because when you're creating these types of stories, you want to go out on top—when you're still creatively effective—and you tend to inevitably get a little floppy in the storytelling when you go too long. So you want to pull the plug on the patient before you get a little too deteriorated. Also, this kind of a story, that has an epic sweep and has heroes and demons and the end of the world, you want the saga to come to an end definitely, and you want to watch a final episode that doesn't peter out like a limp balloon. You want it to end so when you cut to black, you can truly say, "That is the end of that story." So, I'm really campaigning hard to do that.

Another fan, Smilineyes, asks, "When or how will we learn about Mary Winchester's side of the family?"
In terms of Mary, we're definitely delving into all of that. I think my goal is to answer those questions sooner than people are expecting us to. I think in the first half of season four we'll actually answer a lot of those questions.

Fan Sandy asks, "The episode 'Croatoan' seemed to be all about testing Sam to see if he was immune to a demonic virus, but then the subject hasn't come up again. Will the results of the tests be significant at some point in the future?"
We have the Croatoan virus on our board of ongoing mythology, and it will return in some form or another that we're working on.

Any last things the fans should know?
Tune into the finale. I think it will be a jaw-dropper and crucial viewing to understanding season four. I think we send the season off in grand fashion.

Burning Questions Answered Posted by DarkUFO at 07:40 (Comments: 0) Labels: Ghostfacers, TV Guide

Thanks to The ODI for the heads up.

After an impossibly long two-month hiatus due to the writers' strike, Supernatural finally returns with new episodes this week. And to celebrate, we've conjured up another Q&A. Will there be an extended Season 4? How do fans' opinions affect the show's direction? Will we get answers about this year's finale? Supernatural creator Eric Kripke is back to tackle your questions and theories. Plus, he has a special message about this week's all-new episode. Supernatural airs Thursdays at 9 pm/ET on the CW.

I've had a long-term theory regarding Sam and his visions — that they were not his but given to him by YED through the connection of blood, which he used to keep track of and communicate with the chosen children. Is this right? Or am I just smoking something? So totally dying to know!Thanks! — gloriaoliver
Eric Kripke: It's an interesting theory… but I'd be crazy to confirm or deny. Sorry, but you just have to keep guessing.

Is there any chance you'll ever appear in a brief cameo role? — ckll
Kripke: No, no. It's funny, when I'm in the writers' room or discussing a scene with a director, I tend to be quite animated, acting out the parts and reading the lines the way I see them in my head. And so it's become a running joke that the writers and directors are always asking when I'm gonna go up and shoot a part already, because I'm clearly a frustrated actor. But the thing is, I'm a deeply, deeply terrible actor, so no friggin' way. After my performance in the lead role of Southview High School's You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, I swore never to torture an audience like that again.

Do you have any plans to extend Season 4, since the strike shortened Season 3 to only 16 episodes? — acsgrlie
Kripke: I was certainly willing to; the entire writing staff was rested and ready after the strike. But alas, the network only ordered 22 episodes, so we'll be presenting our usual length.

In "Mystery Spot," did Trickster really bend time or just Sam's mind (e.g., another dream-like experience akin to DaLDoM), or both? — racestaffer
Kripke: Sorry to be Dungeon Master here, but again, I'm not gonna answer. What do you think?

In "All Hell Breaks Loose: Part 1," the YED said to Sam that he was looking for the best and brightest of your generation. Sam replied, "My generation?" and then the YED said there were others. My question is, was Mary or someone we know part of the other generations that the YED was talking about? — chillgirl12
Kripke: Way to pay attention. Specifically, the YED was making a reference to children like the baby girl — Rosie — seen in the Season 1 episode "Salvation." If you remember, when John was tracking the Demon in Season 1, the pattern he discovered was that the YED was visiting children in their cribs on their 6-month birthdays, the same way that he visited Sam. So, over two decades later, the YED was repeating his old pattern, visiting a new generation of children. Presumably, there are generations older than Sam... and generations younger.

In recent interviews about the last episode of Season 3, a giant cliff-hanger was mentioned. I know you can't give anything away about Dean's deal, but is the "jaw-dropper" something about Mary ? — nic875
Kripke: Nope. You gotta wait for the Mary information. It's coming in Season 4.

You said that the Demon war is now Season 4, so my question is, to what extent will we see it? Will it be like in "Jus in Bello," or will there be blow-out battles? — Padackles13
Kripke: All right, here's a brutally too-honest answer: They will mostly be like "Jus in Bello" — skirmishes and off-camera battles — because we can't afford to produce actual blow-out battles. There's an interesting story behind all this: When Season 3 was beginning, the biggest note we received from the studio and the network was to open up the scope of the story, to make it more epic. We told them that costs money, and they said that they understood, but we should still go for it. The writers already knew that we wanted to release a bunch of new demons onto the landscape…. But we basically escalated it, increased our number of demons, turned it into a war, opened the Devil's Gate, all that. Then we produced "The Magnificent Seven," and it was way, way over budget, and that wasn't even full-scale war yet. Immediately the studio clamped down and said we had to stick to our budget for the rest of the season. We protested — how do you present a war on our bargain budget? They basically said, "Figure it out." So here we are, a war without the money to mount it. And our Season 4 budget is even smaller than our Season 3 budget. Therefore, we'll be employing all kinds of tricks next year — the war will be smaller, more contained, underground, more guerrilla-style. I actually think it'll improve the show. Looking back over Season 3, the spectacle and size is never as interesting as the episodes that focus on the brothers. I think we probably got a little too distracted at times. So in Season 4, there will still be the war, but we'll be presenting it in our scruffy, angsty, Supernatural way, and we'll return to concentrating on the relationships and the characters.

With all the debate about Bela, etc — whom I personally don't mind — I find myself wondering how much the displeasure or pleasure of the fans affects the direction of the show. Are you swayed or do you stick to your vision and hope they'll stick with you? — islandgyal
Kripke: Here's another honest answer. The reality is, I have a core story that I want to tell, and I've never wavered from it, not once. It's the saga of the Winchester clan — who the brothers really are, who their parents really are, why Demons are so closely intertwined with them, what their destiny really is. It's an epic, emotional family story at its heart, and to me, that's what Supernatural is really and truly about. Beyond that, story elements come and go, some are introduced, and others discarded. And whether we keep a storyline or toss it is based on several elements: the writers' opinions, the realities of actors' schedules, and yes, at times, the opinions of the fans. We value the fan response. It works as a kind of real-time audience testing. We never listen to specific comments…. But if the fans overwhelmingly reject something, over and over and over, on every website, we tend to pay attention to that. Again, I want to stress, it never alters the core story and central mythology; if the fans don't like that, then they should go watch Grey's. But if one of the outer-orbit, less important stories just isn't working, the writers don't feel so self-important that we need to keep it. There's always room to make the show better, and that means trying new things, keeping the things that work, losing the things that don't.
