Amy Acker on Supernatural next week?
Okay, so AA will be in an upcoming episode of Supernatural. And, from the promo, it looks like next week's ep. But the promo confused the heck out of me. At the start, it says, "In the coming weeks on Supernatural," and there's AA. So that implies she could be in any epsode between now and the last one they filmed. But, at the end of the promo, it says, "Next week." Which makes it look more like she's in next week's ep.
So, I went to the WB to see the guest star list for next week's ep, and she's not on it. But, from the promo posted at the site, it looks like she is. So I'm just gonna assume she is. Hey, I was gonna watch the ep anyway, since I like the show, but I'd still like to know when AA will be on. Oh, what the heck. Here's a link to the promo. What do you think? Superntural: Dead In the Water promo

I think it's pretty obivous that Acker is in this coming episode - her character mentions something about water and that's what it appears this next episode is about

Ladies and gentleman, it's official! Someone has beaten James Marsters for "biggest downgrade since the Jossverse!"
Sorry to any fans of the aforementioned shows. I simply could not resist. |

Well, I liked the first two eps of Supernatural more than I liked most of the eps in all of SV's season 4. I almost dread seeing what they'll do to JM on SV, while looking forward to seeing what part AA will play on Supernatural. Although, I guess a one-shot part isn't as good as a recurring role.
However, something interesting Supernatural has done is used actors well known from other genre shows in each ep. Ep one had "Dwayne Barry", from a well-known X-FILES episode. Episode two had Donnelly Rhodes (a well-known character actor, and also Dr. Cottle from the new BATTLESTAR GALACTICA) in a cameo-type part. (One scene.) And, now, Amy Acker from ANGEL. It's almost like they're paying homage to genre shows in general. And it's fun to wonder what other familiar actors are going to pop up.

AA could certainly do worse. Like Will & Grace. Or Alias (I know a lot of ya'll likes that show, but it's going down faster than Ben Affleck's career). Quote:

Well, I guess we all have a right to our opinions. Honestly I don't see how you could do worse than Smallville S4, so I'll give you that. I'm not watching next season, not even for James.
I agree that probably not very many people outside of the AtS fandom know of Amy... I wouldn't exactly call her well-known. But I thought she was great in S5 of Angel, making the transition from Fred to Illyria. it's nice to see her finding other work, even if it's in something I won't be watching. |

Is AA well-known in general? Probably not. But people who watched AtS, or kept any kind of tabs on genre shows (and probably stumbled upon her in an article or two) probably knows who she is. And I wouldn't call those other two actors exactly well-known either. Like, with the actor in the first ep, I didn't really know who he was. I just knew he looked familiar. Then, when someone told me which episode of the X-FILES he was on (and he's pretty well-known by X-FILES fans for that part) I thought it was pretty cool.

So maybe Supernatural is paying homage to the "Hey, It's that guy/gal!" actors and not necessarily to sci-fi actors. Though really, some of these actors show up over and over again on all kinds of shows (Like Duane Berry). So maybe it doesn't have to do with anything. Amy could do worse than becoming a "Hey, it's that gal!" actress. At least they seem to get steady work, and eventually some (like duane Berry) get a cult following all their own.

i know in the behind-the-scene books Chris Carter was excited he was able to get him on the show. |
