Things You May Not Have Known About Supernatural

Every now and again I come across a thing or two I didn't know about the boys or the show and I know I'm not the only one. So I'm going to give you some facts you may not have known so you can dazzel your Supernatural friends the next time you're watching an episode and can whip out a fact or two.

-Jensen Ackles was originally up for playing Sam
-Kripke's original idea was about a reporter who traveled the country covering urban legends.
-Kripke's wife suggested Jared Padalecki because she was a big fan of Gilmore Girls.
-Jensen and Jared were the only two considered for the roles of Dean and Sam.
-Kripke deliberately specified the music in the scripts.
-John was originally supposed to be the one on the ceiling at the end of the Pilot
-Jessica was supposed to be a demon
- Sam originally was supposed to think Dean was a serial killer and killed their father.
-The intended ending for the season one finale was the Impala doing a 'barrel roll' in the air after the truck smashed into it, but the Impala did not come off the track it was on and instead was plowed forward.
The truck driver momentarily lost control of the truck but when he eventually regained control he steered the truck and the Impala into a field camera causing the shot to go black. Kim and Eric liked this so much that they made this the ending.
-During the filming of 'Route 666' the trucks kept getting stuck in the mud, at one point Jared and Jensen were out in the mud themselves pushing the truck which eventually ended in a mud fight.
-Jensen sings relatively well so Kripke must specify in scripts that Jensen sing off-key.

Just a few to get you started. I'll try and give you between 10 and 20 every time.
