Eric Kripke

Eric Kripke: (on his newborn son's birthday) Want to hear something creepy? My son was born on Sam [Winchester's] birthday. It freaks me out. My son was born on May 2nd, and Sam was born on May 2nd. It's disturbingly coincidental. I mean what are the odds that with any day out of the year he is born on Sam's birthday? Very, very troubling

Eric Kripke: (About Jared Padalecki's injury in season 2 of Supernatural) Ah, Jared. We're making it work. Luckily, he gets in fights every episode so it is easy for him to break his hand. It turns out the zombie breaks his hand. I'm glad he's OK, and I'm glad it all worked out, but I do have to say there is a part of me that wished he broke his hand a little earlier because it would have made so much more sense to come out of the car crash with the broken arm. He survived getting T-boned by a semi going full speed, but a zombie broke his hand? We do what we always do — we made a joke out of it and we had Dean give a funny reaction. Not once does it get in the way of the story.

Eric Kripke: (On the third season of Supernatural ) This is a season where war breaks out. And there's no longer any of this, 'Who's the psychic kid? And I should follow the yellow-eyed demon, what?' It's war. We're at war. Choose a side. It's the end of the world. We feel this is the most exciting season yet. We feel this is the season to join the party. I'm not promising that we're not going to make missteps, as any show does. But the difference between us and other shows, is when they make missteps, they say, 'Go f--- yourself.' When we make missteps, we pay attention to the fans and we course correct. So, fans, I love you all, but stop worrying.
