Supernatural‘s creator, Eric Kripke, and super talented actor, Jensen Ackles, were both recognized for their outstanding achievements Monday night in Los Angeles at the Astra TV Awards!
Eric’s genius in creating 6 groundbreaking television series – Tarzan, Supernatural, Revolution, Timeless, The Boys and Gen V – won him the highest award of the evening, the TV Icon Award.
While I’m proud as hell of these shows, it’s really weird taking credit for the talent of literally thousands of other people. Like the actors, a bunch of whom are in the audience tonight. I saw them earlier and I’ll hug you at the party but I know there’s Supernatural in the house, I know there’s Timeless in the house, and I know there’s Boys and Gen V in the house. – Eric Kripke
