No double-scooping!
1. So. Strike. To be honest, I'm feeling pretty damn pissed off at the moment. Because I've realized that realistically it's not so much a matter of whether this'll all be over in time to finish the season as it is a matter of hoping for as many episodes as possible. 10 out of 22. 17 out of 22. Maybe one more. Maybe a handful less

Even with Ewan being, you know, EWAN, I'm constantly forgetting that they're actors.
I know exactly what you mean. I mean, you're constantly aware of who Ewan is (Charley isn't famous enough as an actor for me to be aware in quite the same way), but at the same time it's hard to equate him with The Star Wars Actor, or That Moulin Rouge Guy. I have to be forcibly reminded of that fact. As I was during those very actor-y segments.
Definitely, I can upload the caps. I wasn't sure if you had also capped it.
I'm kinda trying to weasel out of capping this one. *g* And I'm not even sure if icons will happen, but there were some AWFULLY pretty caps in this episode, and I kinda feel...urgings.
Your gallery will be perfect! (My .avi gallery is really just a dumping ground for me, they're not even listed in my cap post.)
If the strike goes on for as long as it COULD, I think the problem becomes less "will we get more episodes this season" and becomes more "will it get renewed for another season". And, well, SPN might, sure. Or maybe next season there will be a huge crop of new pilots. Not ones written during the strike, of course, but ones that writers came up with the idea for when they were on strike and then wrote after. I mean, it wouldn't surprise me since they're not exactly channeling their creativity into their work at the moment.
The CW, however, will do just fine, I think. Of course, it helps that their most popular show isn't affected by the strike, and that I see them as willing to put just about any reality dreck on the air.

Exactly. I wonder why that is? Because I found the same thing during Long Way Round, even though I hadn't had much exposure to Ewan the real person before that. Maybe it's something about the roles he chooses, or that he's good at his job. There are definitely some actors who I always see as the actor whether their in character or not. Like, Tom Cruise is always just TOM CRUISE to me. I can't really see past the man. But it's weirdly different with Ewan.
Here are the caps.
I agree completely about the strike. And, I mean, waiting to hear which shows get renewed is stressful enough. And who knows what to protocol would be if the strike is still on at the time when they usually announce such things (god forbid, considering how far away that is from now!). Ug. I'm going to try not to worry too much. All we can do is enjoy what's left and hope for the best.

I was thinking about that too. Like, Joss has this new idea for a show, and he must still be in this phase of constantly thinking about it and coming up with new ideas. It's hard to imagine NOT sitting down to write when that's happening. But I agree with you that if nothing else it'll mean they have a lot to write about when they do get back.
The CW, however, will do just fine, I think.
I'm glad you think so. I'm an over-worrier!
