Supernatural was a series that fans went crazy over pairing off the huge cast of characters (google "Destiel")
Never watched that show. No interest.

No, I'm just not familiar with it. We're both Gen X-ers, I see. And yes, to say "who you gonna ship" to suggest a relationship sounds awkward as hell. To me, anyway.

Sorry, I meant generational difference between you & ELO. I could be wrong, but I don't know many GenXers who use that phrase.
