From what I've gathered, S&L is 5m/ep, TW is 4.7m/ep, Walker is 3.5 m/ep.

I don't know if these numbers are accurate at all, but IF they are - how TF does a FIRST season show with practically all green actors with little to no name recognition cost soooo much? We know it wasn't the vfx/sfx because those were TERRIBLE (Jensen did say at JIB that they cut money from other areas to pay for the expensive finale music and I'm guessing a bunch of that was the fx budget but still). So where did all the money go? We established it wasn't fx, it clearly was NOT wardrobe either, we know they spent a LOT on music but I don't know about enough to hike the budget per ep that much.. so was this all the stunt casting? Did they really blow the budget casting a bunch of spn alum that half the audience didn't even care about? We know new watchers wouldn't know any og spn cast so it was all for the handful of AA's and hellers who, lets be honest, only watched for Dean or dest*el so the stunt casting wasn't even all that necessary for them either.

Plus shows only get more expensive the longer they run. S&L is on s3 and they have some pretty impressive vfx for a cw show so I'm sure that's where a chunk of their budget goes. Not to mention there are quite a few decently well known names on the show which always ups the budget. And Walker is also on s3 and are much cheaper. I get that Walker doesn't need as much vfx as a DC show would but they have still managed to keep their budget low even though they are 3 seasons in. Where is TW going to go? The money they spent per ep was a waste and it will only get worse. They claim they want to bring in MORE stunt casting if they get a s2 which will ramp up the budget. I'm sure Jensen will want more expensive music and D will probably try to do something stupid with wardrobe. I would HOPE they would put more money to fx in the future but we know they won't bother with silly things like that when they can spend money on their friends and background music!!

So, pure speculation, since the proof provided is 'from what I've gathered,' (though I have seen others mention TW is fairly expensive to produce).

But, if this is the case, then I do have to wonder where that money's going, because it certainly wasn't being spent on the show. I know Jensen said he gave up his salary for the last episode so they could get Led Zeppelin, and they probably saved money in other areas for that, but I also have to wonder what his and Danneel's EP salaries were for the other episodes. Not to mention, they had to hire a few more EPs when the Ackles proved themselves incompetent at the job.

If those numbers are accurate, there's no way they're getting a second season, especially not on the CW. The WB already said they would support Superman & Lois. Funny they didn't mention supporting TW.

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love ❤

ah thank you!

i only have five spn fics so far so those are here:

maybe god will cover up his eyes (wincest, ahbl, necro)

and on the third day (follow up to the above)

down throat (you let it slip) (wincest, sub!dean, cockwarming)

brand-new (wincest, virginity kink)

a choice i’d make (WIP, wincest, dom!sam, character study)

but in terms of fics for other fandoms my fav is probably now isn’t the time (to play it safe), which is a short lil kirk/spock piece, or cicada love songs or i thread the needle through (beat the devil tattoo). both of those are justified fx fics and the latter was my first multi chapter. all of my justified stuff is stuff i’m really proud of actually.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road I-III

I want to thank @han-ban-bam for hosting their SPN au event, without it as one of the factors driving me, I probably would not have finished this and had the chance of exposure for my pet project of the SPN rewrite, FX Supernatural.

This scene is apart of my Alternate Season 8 (technically season 7 🤫) wherein Dean and Benny leave each other on much better terms than what the CW gave us, long story short: semi-established friends with benefits break-up after one, freshly out of the closet still unwell man, realizes the discord of his life is not amendable to settling down with a Louisianan vampire bear who owns a food truck. No decapitation just an angsty intricate rituals of ‘brotherhood’ and a first kiss of parting~

Watching Supernatural at the same time as reading Morganville Vampires and being in a Justified discord means you see these similarities and frequently go feral for a moment. Please enjoy my 3am offering.

In the very middle it says 'Daddy Issues. Doesn't do feelings. Good at killing. Ladies' man. Mum died.' In the Dean & Shane section it says 'Big brother. Mouthy. Fights supernatural evil.' In the Shane & Raylan section it says 'Got married. Escaped home town but forced back.' In the Raylan & Dean section it says 'Cowboy hat. Bisexual. Likes guns.' Just in the Shane part it says 'Lives in a house.Plays video games. Can cook chilli.' Just in the Dean part it says 'Loves his car a little too much. Owns a lot of salt. Constantly on the move.' Just in the Raylan section it says 'Loves ice-cream. Has a steady job. Is a dad.' End image description.]

When I started watching Supernatural in 2014 (I’ve known about the show since season 1, it's just difficult to watch on cable in Canada...even though the show is filmed here), I never thought it would impact my life. To me, when I put that DVD in and clicked 'play', I was just starting a new series. If only... I quickly got sucked into the show and binged the whole nine seasons over the summer. What a great summer it was!

Before watching the show, I was not in a good place mentally and I didn't really know what I wanted to do with my life. The more I watched, the more I realized how the series was changing my mood. I wasn't so down anymore; Sam, Dean and Castiel's adventures caused smiles to appear on my lips - good laughs too -and pulled me out of my 'bad place'. It became a therapy - and still is today. 

Then, something I didn't expect happened. I figured out what I wanted to do in life, what I really loved: FX (special effects) makeup. This sudden passion for the makeup world was unexpected as I surprisingly was never into gore-y things or horror movies - which I'm all about now. Beauty makeup has always been something I was into and loved, but I also love recreating iconic looks from the show like the burned out eyes, Cas’s handprint burn on Dean’s shoulder, the Mark of Cain, etc. Bring on all the blood and ‘gross’ makeup!

Without Supernatural, I don’t know what direction I would have taken in life, what my life would be now. For now, although I’m nowhere near my dream job (only doing makeup on my Instagram/building a self portfolio - and clients here and there during Halloween), I am moving toward my dream career with full ambition and creativity 🖤

if you combine all the canon-adjacent (journal, said by actors etc) shit surrounding dean and John the picture painted is genuinely like. GENUINELY so horrific. yes I am SPECIFICALLY talking about the fact that around the time dean had to burn the dead gay nuns he’d probably already started tricking. hbo spn this fx spn that like this is hideous enough as it is  

[dotthings]

Me: I...I just want them to be able to go out for cheeseburgers... SPN: CAS’S EPIC LOVE CONFESSION REACHING BACK OVER 12 SEASONS OF CANON!! CAS OPENLY WEEPING WITH TEARS STREAMING DOWN HIS FACE FOR THE FIRST TIME!! TELLING DEAN HOW MUCH HE LOVES HIM HOW MUCH HE HAS ALWAYS LOVED HIM!! SPECIAL FX BUDGET!!! DEAN’S TEAR-FILLED EYES AND BEGGING CAS NOT TO GO THEN DEAN’S CHOKED QUIET SOBS IN THE SILENCE THAT FOLLOWED!

Dean dont let Sam to see new season of American Horror Story

[casgirl]

Hbo spn is literally just spn but Sam is a self hating catholic and they’re a bit more overt with some stuff people already read into the show (like dean being a former prostitute and John being physically abusive). Also dean has lung cancer for some reason? I think if we were going to remake spn they should just smoke weed instead

Hbo spn is for Sam girls and therefore I find it dumb and beneath me. Starting a new thing for cas girls it’s FX spn where Ryan Murphy is showrunner. What that ultimately means is cas gets to wear fun costumes.

[saawek]

Koalas are cute and cuddly and Dean loves them (and sometimes imitates them ;) )

I’M PRETTY SURE THIS ISN’T WHAT YOU HAD IN MIND BUT HELL I WAS INSPIRED. And you sent me this ask right after I published something where cas is dead and dean’s crying?? You were asking for it.

Please don’t block me :(

In case of resolution too bad on some phones, here the text : “Oh you’re asleep, Cas? don’t worry about getting cold. I’ll be your blanket.”

// blanket!dean tag right here //

[transsexualbloodlust]

on either fx or hbo spn when dean is trying to convince sam to trust benny sam would have looked at dean with his tired ally eyes and say “why because you fucked him”

and dean wouldn’t say he didn’t
