First Details Released at Comic Con!

LOCATION: San Diego Comic Con

THE SKINNY: At San Diego Comic Con, the cast and crew of SUPERNATURAL during the press roundtable event talked about their plans for the fifth season and what we would have to look forward to in the coming year.

It did not disappoint.

First off let?s just begin with the news everyone has been looking, hoping, searching and asking forCreator Eric Kripke says that while originally the plan for the show was to do five season onlyb> ? and this being the fifth season upcoming, fans are getting nervous ? but because the show is doing well and actually gaining viehe says they may indeed do more seasons of the show.w.

And the good news is the Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles are contracted to do one more year of the show after season five, Kripke says.

?Because I have low self esteem, I never thought we?d make it to 100 episodes,? Kripke says. ?I had a five-year plan and I thought we?d do a comic to wrap it up [laughing]. But the ratings are getting better and better but I still have to do a five year plan and want to finish this chapter. We are not going to delay it. [sam and Dean] are going to be facing the devil this year but there is not reason why a new chapter can?t begin.?

And that my friends is what we?ve all been hoping for. Hope, that the show will continue.

Kripke goes on to say that he plans on tying up some of the loose ends from previous season ? mainly the Croatian virus and Meg. Both will be taken care of iKripke says there will be an episode in season five where Dean jumps five years into the future and we will see an apocalyptical world ravaged by the war with Lucifer and the Croatian virus will play into it.s will play into it.

?It?s our version of 28 DAYS LATER,? Kripke says.

What else will be seeing in SUPERNATURAL season five? Well for starters the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, more mythological creatures from the bible and elsewhere and ? celebrity ghosts? Yes, that?s right celebrity ghosts including a homicidal Abraham Lincoln ghost.

Kripke jokes ?The Four Horsemen are not going to be riding horses but color coordinated muscle cars. Why ride a horse when you can be in a Mustang??

Ah but that?s not all! Also returning in season five will be Ellen and Jo Harvelle, Jessica Moore (played again by Adrianne Palicki) and Rufus.

And we may actually get to see God as a character at some point, according to producer Sera Gamble.

?We are approaching it cautiously,? Gamble says. ?There is a lot of doubt because a lot of characters are angry at God for not stepping in and doing something about what?s going on.?

Also getting some more camera time will be Bobby Singer, played by Jim Beaver. Beaver says that Singer will play a huge role in the first three episodes and that the first three episodes will set up the rest of the season.

?I will be more involved this year than in the past,? Beaver says. ?When I read the first script [for season five], my jaw dropped as to what is happening with bobby, not what I expected.?

And let?s not forget about Castiel. Misha Collins says that he will be on the run with Sam Dean as they will all be hunted by angels and demons alike. Castiel will also have less powers than he did in season four after being ?fired? as an angel.

Lots to look forward to and we can?t wait.

I like this show more then I did the X-Files which is saying something. The show only got better as it went on. The introduction of angels could have led to the show becoming a bit of a joke, but they handled them so well.

I can only look forward to what season five has in store for the brothers. I love the idea of the four horsemen driving cars!

Paris Hilton will guest star in the October 8th episode of The CW's "Supernatural," reuniting her with her House of Wax co-star and "Supernatural" series regular, Jared Padalecki.

"Paris Hilton is playing a demonic creature that takes the form of....Paris Hilton," said series creator and executive producer Eric Kripke in describing her role on the show. "It'll be a fun, irreverent episode and we here at Supernatural' are thrilled that Paris agreed to do it."

The episode, titled "American Idol," will air on October 8, 2009, at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.

[coming soon]

I really want to see what they do with Bobby, Lucifer, and the overall plot of the 5th season; but damnit I wish they would keep the show short and sweet. Too many shows have gone on too long just for the sake of doing more episodes and have suffered for it. I don't want that happening to this show.

And I'm not happy about Paris Hilton guest starring in an episode. I don't think I can put into words how much I loathe her. And I won't like having to deal with her being on one of my favorite shows of all time.

Also, read this a few days ago. Some stuff is a repeat of what Rappy posted though. (Contains some big spoilers, so read at your own risk)

With an all out Armageddon underway, the show will enjoy using twists on some famous Biblical stories. Don't expect huge effects as due to the budget, much of the big scale action takes place offscreen.

Lucifer (Mark Pellegrino) will be portrayed as a nice guy, a sympathetic version using many elements from Milton's "Paradise Lost"

The four horsemen of the apocalypse will be introduced throughout different episodes of the season, though their 'horses' will be muscle cars.

Whether the show gets a season six or not, the plan is to finish up the 'apocalypse arc' by the end of this upcoming fifth season, an ending that "will end with a bang...[and] be bittersweet"

Unlike the very dark and almost morbid tone of last season, this year is the show's "most hopeful" season and one of the most fun with the brothers seemingly back together throughout after some division last season.

Castiel will serve as a recurring character, his angelic powers gone. Stuck on Earth as a human, Dean takes him to a whorehouse.

The almost mentor-like character of Bobby (Jim Beaver) will undergo a "dramatic transformation" early in the season that shocked the actor when he read it.

The fourth episode will involve a jump five years into the apocalypse-ridden future and will question whether fate can be changed.

God, who has disappeared it would seem with the angels kicking off the Apocalypse on their own, will be involved toward's the season's end.

Returnees include Ellen, Jessica, Meg (in a new body) and Rufus.

Eleanor in Salt Lake City: Any new news on Supernatural?

Jim Beaver told us to expect a huge Bobby-related twist early in Supernatural's fifth season. He says, "There's something pretty big that happens with Bobby in the first episodes. Really big. It's going to have a huge impact on his relationship with the boys?but I don't know what that impact is, because I've only seen the first three scripts."

I haven't seen this reported anywhere, so this may actually be a bit of a scoop. A casting agency has posted a casting call for episode five ? and they're looking for actors to play Abraham Lincoln and Mohandas Gandhi. Apparently these are "heavily featured co-star" roles, but neither character will actually talk. I'm wondering if they have a voiceover speaking thru Lincoln and Gandhi, or if they just stand around? Actually, I'm really wondering if Sam and Dean will be forced to team up with Lincoln in an arena of death. Did Ben Edlund write episode five?Casting Callb>]

If the promo images are any indication, we're in for a load of tussling in the Supernatural season premiere, "Sympathy for the Devil:"

The season's sixth episode will center on the show's version of the Tooth Fairy, whom the casting notice suggests may exist as the result of a young boy's powers:

Jesse: An all-American boy age 11 who is wise beyond his years. He was adopted as an infant and remains perplexed by his unusual powers. He possesses a childlike innocence-he believes in the Tooth Fairy (Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!)! He suddenly finds himself faced with a very adult decision. Recurring role.

Creator Eric Kripke says we'll never learn how Ruby's demon knife got its powers, because a little mystery is good. But we will see the magical kill-anything Colt pistol again ? it pops up early in the season, and then plays a major part in episode ten. The Colt is the Winchester boys' best chance at shooting Lucifer in the face. And there's always a possibility Jeffrey Dean Morgan might pop up again at some point. [EW]

    • Latest Rufus update improves new Windows 11 install method by Taras Buria Pete Batard, the maker of Rufus, a very popular app for creating bootable Windows (and other OS) media, has released a new beta version of its app. Rufus 4.15 beta is now out, and while it offers no new features, there are all sorts of improvements and fixes, including for the new Windows 11 installation method that was introduced in version 4.14 in early May. The "Silent Windows 11 installation" is a new feature whose goal is to automate operating system installation. All you have to do is boot from the drive, and then Rufus takes over, doing all things for you, such as setting up a new account, skipping ads and prompts, and more. It is a very handy tool, but initially, it had some bugs and issues that required addressing. With version 4.15 beta, Rufus is fixing that, particularly a bug with installation failing at 75%, crashes on Snapdragon X-based PCs, and more. Here is the changelog: Rufus 4.15 beta is now available for download from its GitHub repository. If you have never used Rufus before, you can check out our guide here. It is a very useful utility to have, as it allows you to deal with plenty of Windows 11's annoyances, which are still there, despite Microsoft's ongoing efforts to fix them.
    • Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations by Usama Jawad Microsoft began integrating Copilot into Excel a couple of years ago and has been upgrading it with new functionalities since then. While some changes have been controversial, Microsoft is hoping to win over users by allowing them to be more productive via Copilot. To that end, it has now announced a Copilot improvement that may actually be appreciated by people who use it regularly. Excel customers often use the Copilot prompt box to issue instructions to format and customize their data, but it can become quite tiring to keep repeating the same instructions again and again. Microsoft now allows you to define Copilot personalization rules for formatting, naming conventions, formulas, and report styles. These can be accessed via Settings > Personalization, where you can explain your rules in natural language like "Always format currency in USD with no decimals", and just let Copilot take care of the rest. Microsoft is going a step further in this direction by allowing you to set workbook rules too. These rules are stored as a .Rules sheet, and are preserved while the workbook is shared. This fosters collaboration while making sure that standard rules govern the Copilot editing experience across the organization. Other advantages of this capability include pointing it to specific examples, defining dynamic formulas, and referencing an entire sheet and asking Copilot to infer rules based on that. You can leverage this feature by opening Copilot in Excel, clicking on "+", and selecting Create workbook rules. If you have an existing .Rules sheet, you can simply start listing the rules in column A as well. Personalization features are available to all Copilot in Excel users across the web, Mac, and Windows. Meanwhile, workbook rules are currently being previewed for Windows and Mac customers on the Insiders channel. General availability is scheduled after a few weeks, but a concrete date is currently unknown. Overall, the Excel capability is quite similar to ChatGPT's memory features, which allow you to permanently store items in the AI model's context window.
    • Imagine you still haven't discovered Total Commander that is doing all those things for three decades already...
    • This sounds like underneath the nice marketing spin, either someone at Adobe got tired of their lazy devs and asked Microsoft to help them sort at least some of Adobe's ancestral spaghetti code to make it go faster, or Microsoft wanted Adobe's crap to run better on Windows to make it look better when compared to Apple, so they offered to intervene. Either way, GOOD.
    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature by Taras Buria Files is among the best File Explorer alternatives for Windows 10 and 11. This free app is packed with all sorts of features and conveniences, but there is one crucial feature that is still missing—Tree View. Fortunately, the latest update in the Preview channel finally delivers it. With version 4.1.4, which is now available for download in the Preview channel, developers implemented Tree View, a new mode that displays folders in an expandable hierarchy. Windows 11's stock File Explorer always had this feature, but it was nowhere to be found in Files until now. Starting with the latest preview update, you can expand each drive and its nested folders without leaving the current location and then open the folder you need in the main view. To try Tree View in Files, update the app to the latest preview version, then click the small arrow next to a drive to expand its content. The developers say they are rolling out Tree View in Preview first to gather feedback from users and improve the feature before bringing it to all in the stable channel. In addition to Tree View, Files 4.1.14 improves the Windows Fonts folder. You can now preview each font directly in Files with no need to open the built-in font viewer. For now, these two features are only available in the Preview channel. For those using the stable release, developers recently released version 4.1.3, with improvements for the built-in tag system, on-demand folder size calculation, and plenty of various fixes. You can check out the full release notes here. You can download Files from the Microsoft Store (paid version) or its official website (free).
