This made my day (my week, my year):
Is there a subfolder in your scoop files for “things that are never gonna happen”? If not, get out the label maker. You see, even though John Winchester hasn’t been on Supernatural in, oh, five years, I still get asked if he’s ever slated for return. So let’s let Jeffrey Dean Morgan put this to bed for good. “Yes, I would go back if they asked me. My stance always is I would love to come back. In fact, they have trashed John so f–king much on that show that I would like to come back just to set the record straight the real way,” he says. “I’m not that bad of a dad. I saved my kids. I went to hell to save my kids. How bad can I be, people? But there are a couple of story lines that I’d like to resolve and more importantly those people mean a lot to me. Jensen [Ackles] introduced me to [girlfriend and White Collar star Hilarie Burton] and they’re family, so it’d be fun to go back. But I don’t think it will ever happen.”Yay, Jeff. And
thank you for saying it.
I'm going to leave comments open so y'all can express and/or share your John/JDM love with me (I kinda need it right now) and with each other, but don't be offended if I don't respond to every comment. My state of mind is rather shit right now, so I'm not very chatty.
In fact, had Jeff said anything short of
"they have trashed John so f–king much on that show that I would like to come back just to set the record straight the real way," I probably would have let other folks cover it/pass the word around. But since he
did say
"they have trashed John so f–king much on that show that I would like to come back just to set the record straight the real way" (and yes, I AM going to repeat it over and over and over again, thanks), I'm going to honor the integrity of that statement by poking my head out long enough to make sure everybody who's been hanging in there all this time on the John front hears it.
So once more, both because it is FUCKING TRUE and cause I just plain love reading it, Jeff said:
"they have trashed John so f–king much on that show that I would like to come back just to set the record straight the real way" right
here and that is the Best. Present. Eva.
Thank you, Jeff.
That is all.
(Except this ...
Fair Warning Given: while I am normally a big proponent of my journal being a free venue where anyone can express whatever opinion they want (within reason), this is an exception. If you have ANYTHING negative to say about EITHER Jeff or John, go say it somewhere else. This post is solely for the Jeff love and the John Love. Consider yourself warned.)
(Oh, and this ... thank you to all of you who've sent your condolences via email and/or PM. I'm still in batten-down-the-hatches mode right now, but it helps very much to know y'all care. Thank you.)
