Next week’s SUPERNATURAL episode is all about Halloween! I know some of you might be thinking that that sounds crazy seeing how “Monster Movie” seemed like their Halloween episode – well it wasn’t and we’ve been doubly blessed with SPN ghoulness.

Episode Description:
Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) investigate some strange Halloween-related deaths that are taking place in a town during the days leading up to the holiday itself. As they begin to solve the mystery, they also learn the real origins of Halloween and find themselves trying to save the entire town itself from a surprising pair of would-be assassins. Introducing Robert Wisdom (“The Wire”) as ‘Uriel,’ the episode also guest stars Misha Collins (“24”) as ‘Castiel.’ “It’s the Great Pumpkin, Sam Winchester” was written by Julie Siege and directed by Charles Beeson.

“It’s the Great Pumpkin, Sam Winchester” Clips:

Hopefully Kripke wasn’t reading my blog today and that’s what spurned his response to the fans that I’ve printed below.

In response to fan reactions to the “Yellow Fever” mystery of the week, SUPERNATURAL creator Eric Kripke wants to clear some things up… about Dean’s dick… or rather Dean being a dick. Hey we can all dream.

“So I’ve never before responded directly to the fandom’s comments about an episode, and I don’t plan to make a habit of it, but I couldn’t resist dropping in a thought about the episode “Yellow Fever.”

Which is this:

Dean is not a dick.

None of the writers, or anyone on the creative team of Supernatural, think Dean’s ever been a dick, past, present, or future. He’s a hero. Dean did NOT contract the ghost sickness because he’s a dick. Victims contract the illness because they use “fear as a weapon.” Dean asks Lilith at the episode’s end, “why did I get infected?” And she cryptically responds, “you know why. Listen to your heart.” We, as the writers, probably should have emphasized this mystery more, I take responsibility for that omission. But the point is: the reason he was infected is because of a SECRET he’s keeping. A dark secret that will be revealed in Episode 10. And not at all because of any dickishness, implied or otherwise.

Thanks, gang.”

It’s kinda great that he used bloggers to get the word out to the people, no? Love that guy.

This was pretty much the only part of last night’s SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE: WEEKEND UPDATE THURSDAY worth mentioning. Here’s the video of Will Ferrell portraying President Bush endorsing John McCain whether he likes it or not! Once again Tina Fey shines as Sarah Palin.

I’ve been helping the folks at SUPERNATURAL tease this cramazing “Eye of the Tiger” outtake/blooper clip for the last couple weeks so I’m more than pleased to bring you the entire clip in all it’s hilarious glory!
