nothingidputbeforeyou:They used the implication that Jared and Jensen aren’t friends anymore at least 6 times in The French Mistake. The first time I watched it, I thought they were playing on the whole spoiled, douche actor stereotype and that it was leading to some punchline about Jensen having a bigger trailer or Jared getting top billing. But that never happened- instead they just repeated it over and over. In fact, it’s the last line of the episode. I could never understand the purpose because everyone knows that Jensen and Jared are extremely close in real life. When I rewatched it a couple of weeks ago, I finally got it. The title of the episode comes from the scene in the movie Blazing Saddles where the cowboy movie literally breaks through the fourth wall and into the set of a musical called The French Mistake. In an interview, Mel Brooks explained that a “French mistake” is when two supposedly heterosexual men have sex in the heat of the moment and then regret it afterwards. Get it? It’s a big J2 joke. In that parallel universe, Jensen and Jared did something they regret and now they don’t talk.So not only is Supernatural the first show that included their characters’ shippers (with the Wincest mention in The Monster at the End of this Book and then by creating Becky), but it’s the first show that I know of that gave a wink to people who ship its actors. God bless this show. -- source link
