Is this supposed to air before or after Season 5? Because Amazon has got to cut down the time between airing new seasons and is he just going to film both shows at once?

[klutzy_girl]

I'm guessing it'll air after season five. Plus, I don't know how he's going to film all of this at once since Countdown starts filming in September.

A show headlined by racist characters as protagonists, one of them an actual Nazi? No thanks.

Oh, that's a good point. Yikes. I love Jensen Ackles but I'm also not sure I wanna see Black Noir get abused since we know how it ends for him.

[waffletaco]

i imagine this takes place before that. Hopefully a one-off series.

[violue]

right? i enjoy both ackles and aya but are there going to be any marginally LIKABLE characters in this?

[klutzy_girl]

Holy shit, this man is booked and fucking busy - he'll also recur on Tracker next season (which luckily films in Vancouver too). Guessing Rust turned him off movies for a while, which is understandable.

But ugh, I didn't watch season four (only kept up via gifsets, Twitter, and Discord). I didn't want to have to watch season five either, even though I figured he'd be back after the cameo.

More excited for Countdown (which starts filming in LA this September), tbh.

Also guessing this pushes back a possible SPN revival, which they've always talked about potentially filming in 2025. There's no way to fit it into his already packed schedule.

Not everything these days needs multiple spinoffs. Unless it's that one thing I want a spinoff of, in which case, spin away!

Me being a lesbian, I would've much preferred a Maeve spinoff where she tends to her farm and bangs Elena over whatever the Hell nazi shenanigans will ensue with Stormfront and Soldier Boy

[almostlawyer]

Didn't the actress quit acting?

[robinanthem21]

She likely did. No one's really confirmed it besides that VoughtHQ leaker. My spinoff idea with Maeve is just a pipe dream.

Surprised he’s been upgraded to series regular for S5, he’s great as soldier boy but I don’t know how much more they can do with his character - especially without Noir, I really liked their dynamic.

I rewatched You’re the Worst late last year and Aya Cash is a treasure, I’m glad to have her back in any capacity.

[v_is_for_violet]

All four of the mains of You’re the Worst deserve so much more! The acting on that show was so good and so ignored it’s crazy

[waffletaco]

They put his character on ice for a reason. They knew they wanted to go back to that well eventually!
