Jared and Jensen are so attached to Dean and Sam (obviously they're not the only ones ;)). It's really nice. Not sure how old the clip I saw recently was, but I saw one of someone asking Jensen which Marvel or DC hero he'd like to play, he asked if it could be some other hero and not Marvel or DC, the answer was yes, so he said he'd like to play Dean Winchester. Not sure if I'm holding out hope they do more Supe or not, in case it isn't too good!
Yes, I am still watching Firescape! In two places still which can be confusing, hubby and I are at S2E11 or so together, but I'm also on S1E12 by myself, where I can pay more attention. Life is troubling me too, I have difficulty concentrating unless I really focus, but getting in that state of mind is hard. 
One episode I've just watched was when something pushed them out of their bodies and into the person next to them. Some excellent and very funny acting there! The "blender" sounds even more crazy!
I'm so glad you've enjoyed the rewatch! It is a good distraction, I wish it was a different time and we could both have watched without every else swirling round. I will definitely continue to watch, it will just take time.
US politics just won't go away, can't stop following it even though it's wretched. I don't pay too much attention to UK politics for my own sanity. Turns out though, being with very aging parents is pretty brutal, and just being a middle age woman has its own sucky issues, so double whammy here. Could be worse... could still be in the US and unable to get away from you know who.
Hmmm, I will keep my eye out for 2073, although at the moment here it only seems to be available to buy on Apple, no streaming anywhere else.
Btw, Jensen's new series Countdown starts June 25th on Amazon for you, not sure when I'll get it here. And Jensen, Jared and Misha have filmed the episode of The Boys where they share a scene, despite everything saying S5 won't air until 2026. Can't wait for that.

Kitt, here's a little peek just for you. These "alternates" from an alternate dimension are lovely, don'cha think?
Claudia Black becomes Chiana
It actually took me a minute or to realize why "Chiana" seemed "different". Btw, Claudia was great doing Chiana's movements and head tilting.
Rygel becomes D'Argo
Anthony Simcoe becomes Jool
(I think the Jool character shows up in s03)
Anyhow that's just 3 of the alt crew that you'll see somewhere in s04. This alt ep is one I had trouble following because I was so enthralled just staring at the various "blended" crew and doing rewinds to get a better look...while laughing hysterically! 
Yes, the "Freaky Friday" episode (body switching) you mentioned was a hoot, they kept switching so much they had to wear signs saying who they really were....and every switch they had to quickly switch signs again.
I'm think this wasn't too much of a spoiler...after all it's only a comment on the wardrobe without any reference to the plot's Who, Why, How, and WT*, right?

Kitt, you said:
"Yes, I am still watching Firescape!"
Be honest...was that a joke, spellcheck, or are you just drunk?
Also wanted to add that the source for the photos above were screenshots from the shows.

Firescape, lol. I wrote it, thought that doesn’t sound right but couldn’t think what else it would be!!
Those photos are amazing! Especially the Rygel one, the puppet and make up team are so talented! I wonder if Claudia Black had to wear that same old ratty wig. Simcoe was great at the Chiana movements on the Freaky Friday episode, they must spend a long time watching each other and getting those things right.
Btw, I think I finally don’t see Rygel as just a puppet anymore, at least unless he travels about, where it’s too distracting not to. But just head shots/conversations I finally forget.
No, not a spoiler , although I haven’t met Jool yet.

"Drunk" it is....Thanks for your honesty. 
"Especially the Rygel one"
The crew were all played with different actors except Rygel. He is a puppet that was played by a different puppet.
" I wonder if Claudia Black had to wear that same old ratty wig."
I believe she did. Every season it got noticeability more haggard and sad.
That reminds me. I discovered I have a gripe about this show. I remember how after the cliffhanger of season 4, it was awhile before they were renewed for a final season of a 2 part miniseries.
The final two eps do wrap up the show and they put to bed a lot of questions and tied up loose ends. However, I didn't recall that the final "season" was obviously a lower budget and/or a rush job and the production values suffered a bit. Chiana had a different, shorter hairstyle (they must have thrown out that dead lab rat she was wearing in the last couple of seasons!) They were also less detailed and new puppets were more puppety.
Lucky you...you still have most of an entire epic story to unfold! I'd be jealous if I hadn't just watched the whole thing!
PS - I just learned from the news that I'm 5 years older than Disneyland!

Or... 10 years younger than colour tv???
Shame they lowered the budget. Maybe ratings had dropped and that's the only way they got renewal for that last year. I've been amazed right from the start how excellent the make up was, easily equivalent and maybe superior to Star Trek and shows we know have a big budget. Although thinking about it, a lot of it might just be talent - who their make up artists were and how willing the actors were to wake up early and sit in the chair.
I noticed in season 2 Zhaan is showing a lot less skin. In season 1 she must have pretty much had to go in something like a tanning booth every day to get blued all over her chest like that. I guess they needed more time to spray Chiana monochrome.

"I've been amazed right from the start how excellent the make up was, easily equivalent and maybe superior to Star Trek and shows we know have a big budget. "
In the miniseries finale season, Rygel is a lot less detailed. His face sometimes looked like green rubber, without any of the texture that gave him more of lifelike appearance. Also his eyebrows that stuck up almost like owl ears became flat against his face without sticking out at all. You saw how delicate the art is on Zhaan....the very detailed designs of various subtle shades of blue and green and gold that overlapped was amazing on her face and head. A lot of that kind of subtle texture/color became a lot more simple and less ornate everywhere in s05.
Still, I don't mean to trash the miniseries ending because the story was still there even with the production flaws I didn't remember noticing originally. Of course I watched the ending the day after I finished season 4 this week. I originally saw s05 more than a year after seeing s04. That would have made the differences a lot less obvious than an immediate comparison.

I actually remember when color TV came out. I even remember when the US flag had only 48 stars on it. Hawaii and Alaska didn't become states until I was 9 years old.

The miniseries being in 2004, before all the high-def tv, would have probably made a difference on first viewing too.
"I actually remember when color TV came out."
I thought I found that was 1940, but looking again it was the first field test that were in 1940/41, not tvs for consumers. There must be somethings that happened before you were born!  Citizen Kane! Casablanca! There, you're a spring chicken in relative terms!

The French Mistake episode was a jewel that never stops shining and making people laugh. I never knew about Misha's tweets making their way out of a TV show's jump from a fictional fake reality into an alternate reality that was creating the fake reality they came from only to end up in reality reality!
Supernatural is/was/always will be magical.

That’s for sure. I keep wanting to rewatch the whole series but I’m not sure I could take the emotional upheaval right now, lol, but I might treat myself to that one episode for the sheer delight of it.

Ya know....given the connections between the productions and cast of "Supernatural" and "The Boys"....a frenchmistakelike episode could be made for "The Boys".
I'm pretty sure no one would complain or claim "copycat" or "derivative"....they'd probably just laugh at the absurd meta fun!

Nada, you'd probably get a kick out of it....but a lot of the humor is how the boys react to being in that irl situation based on their past relationships and shared experiences.

Just watch out, Naja, if you watch it and love it and decide to watch the show there are 15 seasons - 327 episodes - you’ll need to urgently make room for in your life .

Well, it looks like our Mr Ackles has a main character role in some new TV series called "Countdown". He's a special cop and I suspect he's one of those cops that "doesn't-like-following-the-rules" (although I only think that mostly because almost ALL cop shows use that theme.)
However, he still has some "Dean" in him as evidenced by a very short conversation he has with a woman who sighs and walks away rolling her eyes.
IMDB says it has 13 episodes and it's labeled as a drama/thriller. It also shows that the first ep is July 25.
Looky:

Even better, it will also be on my Amazon, which not all new US shows are at first! 
I'm actually a bit nervous about it, in case it's not good. I'm sure he'll be charming but these cop shows often get repetitive, and I hope the writing's not weak. Fingers crossed.
I read Vought Rising doesn't start filming until August, so that is a way away, but there's going to be a lot of Jensen over the next year or so.

"but these cop shows often get repetitive"
i know but it does depend on the show...I've seen all eps of Will Trent and I am totally engaged while watching it. The characters are interesting and diverse....it's always a fun ride.
Also I have watched all eps of Tracker because it's so easy to watch...and to tell you the truth,right this minute I can't remember any particular people he has found. It's sort of a show that you can miss half of it and it still understand the plot because it's a formula that never changes.
This Ackles trailer looks fun but Jensen will still be Jensen...maybe a tad less "teenagery" and not as hung up on babes and burgers as Dean. Or not.
