The CW Upfronts: Loads of Pretty People, J2 and Misha in Nice Suits, and A CW Selfie?
Today was a pretty fun day for our show. Jared, Jensen, and Misha all got to dress up and represent their network at the annual CW Upfront Presentation in New York City, adding a lot of pretty to an already very pretty set of actors. I think Jensen won the award for suit of the day, but I found Stephen Amell’s bowtie positively adorable, as well as Daniel Gilles’ white jacket.
This is only Jared & Jensen’s 3rd appearance at CW Upfronts. They were at the 1st CW one at the end of S1 & weren’t asked again until S7!

There were teasers to be given! We know Jared was teasing, cause he’s that kind of guy.
SUPERNATURAL’s @jarpad says finale has “the best last 5 seconds” of any season to date. Does it change the landscape? “Oh God, yes!”

My favorite photo is this one with Misha and John Barrowman. These two in real life are the goofiest guys imaginable and had a blast hanging out together at Comic Con last year. They announced at the Upfront that Barrowman was being added as a regular to the Arrow cast for season three!
Jared and Jensen got to do a little presentation on stage after they aired a Supernatural montage for the crowd.
Massive #Supernatural retrospective playing now — Jared & Jensen looked like babies when this show started in 2005…

When it was all over everyone gathered on stage to socialize. Here’s Jared interrupting Jensen’s conversation with Paul Wesley and Nina Dobrev. Pictures caught Jensen chatting with Nina a few times, who was next to him on stage during the star parade.

Last I’d heard, the J’s were in Europe to get ready for a convention. Does that mean that they flew back for today and are going back to Europe AGAIN?! Ah, what a life….
It also kills me to know that they were in my own neck of the woods (big, big woods) and I missed it… I always miss it, usually finding out after the fact. Does anyone know where this was held? I saw the BIG TENT going up at Lincoln Center…
Word on the Internet is that Jensen was here already and Jared flew back from Europe partly because he didn’t want Jensen to have to be there alone. In any case, they both made it. I thought they might announce the status of their contracts, either that they had both re-signed or 10 would be the last season, but apparently not.
Aww.. that’s pretty nice of Jared, nothing like an extra 6 hours on a plane each way. I believe that the rest of his family is in Europe right now with Clif. More convention video soon. I thrive on that stuff! :p
No more CONCORD’S either unless some Zillionare has a private one. :p
The CW Upfronts were held at The London Hotel (ironically) in NYC. J2 also presented at the CW Affiliate Award Dinner, which was held Wednesday night at the St. Regis Hotel in NY. There are 4 pictures of them on stage from that event floating around various web sites such as this one. http://www.adoring-ackles.com/photos/thumbnails.php?album=182
Ah.. the St. Regis…on the east side. It’s so hard to get from east to west in the city that they might as well have been two states away at that point. But, the London Hotel is west side… near Carnegie… very accessible….Dang :(. I always miss them.
