CW Source Exclusive: Jensen Ackles, Part One
This is turning out to be quite a Thursday at the Source. We got the day off to a great start with Allison Mack, and now it's time for part one of our interview with Jensen Ackles! We've had lots of Jared over the past week, but now it's Jensen's turn. In this chat with Jason C. from Vancouver, Jensen talks Dean's to-do list, what attracted him to the role, and more. Without further ado... here's Jensen!

A nice interview. I think the boy is a very good actor and I enjoy watching him bring Dean to life. I hope the show soon returns to its original dynamic drama of two brothers on the back roads of Americana in their Impala, doing their jobs, complete with the great classic rock and the urban legends, without the Hermione Granger/007 wannabe mixup of a character like Bela. (No disrespect intended to the actress).

Hmm. I thought season two left off in a really good place, with Dean saying "we have work to do". I was very excited at seeing our determined Dean who really believes in the job he's doing and was eager to see him driven to put as many demons and supernatural things away before he dies. Now, it' sounding like he's going to be distracted and wanting to have fun, with Sam having to remind him about the work they have to do. Not that I begrudge Dean having some fun but I really hope they don't overdo it. I want them to show us the Dean I fell in love with. Which is the Dean that believes in hunting things and saving people.
Again, I don't begrudge him wanting to have some fun and live life to the fullest but I don't want it to take away from things too much. I hope they leave that to their off hours where they are hanging out in an appropriate setting, like a bar or a diner or something when they're still piecing things together and not full on into a job yet. And, I hope they don't have him allow that to interfere with how he does a job. He's always been a little flirty but he's always managed to focus on the job at hand and remember why they're there and to get the information they need, so I hope they keep it that way and don't go overboard and have him being led around by his dick anytime a woman is around to the point where he's slacking off on the job.
I'm more than a little worried about this season, with the "apocalypse" talk in that little promo we got during this past episode. I was drawn to the small scale intimate feel of two brothers fighting evil. I am really quite bored with the big scale apocalyptic type of thing. Saw enough of that with Buffy and Angel.
I really feel that they're moving away from all of the things that drew me to the show in the first place. More hunters. More demons. More, more, more. I don't want *more*. I want my little two lone hunters, with a little help from the likes of Bobby or Ellen or maybe crossing paths with one or two hunters along the way, but no one that we'd see again and again and again.
Season 3 looked so promising and now it looks like they're going in every direction *I* didn't want it to go:(
Anyway, forgive my rambling. I just like this show and would hate to see it change too much. So my fingers are crossed that it keeps that core feel enough to where I don't feel like I'm watching an entirely different show.
Great interview, Jason. It gets kind of tiring hearing the same questions and answers, so kudos for giving us a chance to hear something new! Jensen talking about that scene with daddy Win possessed by the YED was a nice change from the stuff I keep seeing and reading of late.

Way to Go Jason for bringing us an interview with this fabulous actor. Thanks for giving us part 1 (cant wait for part 2).
Its great that you obviously gave Jensen space to relax (he even made eye contact, thats a result). The man is a fantastic actor and I hope that he soon gets the recongnition he so deserves.
Please keep the scoop coming, this show is fantastic and the fans appreciate your support of our SN obsession.
Roll on Season 3!

Ha just watched this like 5 times. Loved it! Great interview! Jensen is so adorable and really gets into what he talks about. Can't wait for season 3.
Part 2 please???
Posted by: Christine | September 15, 2007 12:53 PM
oh GOD!
I love him so much!
Jensen ROCKS!
;p
Posted by: Cecy | September 15, 2007 9:43 AM
Great interview, Jason! You did very well in asking Jensen the right questions and giving him room to answer.
But honestly, can you give them a note from Yours Truly asking what they're doing in the Wardrobe department? Brown coat on Dean?
Posted by: Devi | September 14, 2007 8:02 PM
We all love you Jensen!
Posted by: Deidre | September 14, 2007 4:51 PM
Such a wonderful man :) Jensen is the best! :)

Thank you, Rebecca!!!

Great Interview! I love hearing from Jensen... hoping there is a part two maybe???.. Great job!!
Posted by: Jennifer | September 14, 2007 12:41 PM

Thanks for this, it was great fun to watch! Jensen is such a sweet person ...

Thanks !!
Posted by: azerty | September 14, 2007 8:43 AM
Thank you guys for this interview I was beginning to worry if all we were ever gonna see where the "new girls" on Supernatural. Nice that CW remembered the boys.
Jason you are an awesome interviewer, thanks for that !!!
I cant wait to see part two !!!
Hey Krip if you read this... round two with Cassie please KTHX !
Posted by: Roxanne | September 14, 2007 8:05 AM
Hi Jason,
you interviewed Jensen really well. Gave him the time to think & respond and ready with another intelligent question.
Thankyou for that. I love Jared but Jensen is so low key and quiet it is lovely to watch him and I think you gave him a good, relaxed interview. Well done.
P.S. Of all the Stars you have interviewed, I would love to hear your take on each of them. I got the sense that you really responded with Jared and very much with Jensen.
Posted by: Elaine Swan | September 14, 2007 6:58 AM
BTW I have to agree with everyone else, Jason did a real good job - asking great questions that fans want to know the answer to, without getting all up in the star's face.
More please!
Posted by: Inferi-tremen | September 14, 2007 3:54 AM
Thanks for the interview, Jason (& thanks to Jensen too. that is, if he ever stumbles upon this for some reason).
I still can't really believe that we're almost into season THREE. I feel like I just watched the Pilot for the first time and now we're already going into our 3rd year of the show. It's crazy.
Posted by: Laura L. | September 14, 2007 1:35 AM
"Lots of Jared"? Like, three forty second clips! I'm not complaining, I swear. :X
Thanks for the interview! It's nice to finally hear from Jensen, since we hacen't seen him like...all summer.
Thanks again.

Nice haircut, guys.

**bowing at the altar of Jason for giving us this vid**
Jason, great interview... thank you so much! As always, Jensen is charming and eloquent. Only one problem... we want more!! :))) Thanks again!
(um, can I get up now, my knees are starting to get numb?) ;)
Posted by: Mousitsa | September 13, 2007 9:09 PM
Thanks for the interview, Jason! It's great to hear from Jensen once again. Can't wait for the rest of the interview!
Posted by: Rachael | September 13, 2007 8:31 PM
Jeez. Jensen has a *voice* man. :::swoon:::
Awesome interview. Thank you!

*sighs happily* Love hearing about Jared, but it's great to hear something from Jensen here on the blog :) It was great to hear Jensen's views on Dean and Season 3. I can't wait for the new season!
Posted by: Liv | September 13, 2007 6:32 PM
Thanks so much for the interview. Jensen looks so great and well-rested. I can't wait until S3 starts! (But I am sure that he's got nothing to worry about when it comes to Dean's survival.)

Thanks, Jason - you give good interviews! Love it that you ask good questions and then let the actors talk ... and thanks for giving us Supernatural goodness with Jensen and Jarod!
Posted by: Bardicvoice | September 13, 2007 5:53 PM
Thank you soo much for posting this. it's great ;D
I love how he lets us in on What dean has planned :D
Cant wait for all the twists and turns :D
Posted by: Lissie A | September 13, 2007 5:42 PM
Thanks Jason, gotta love your interview style. :) Quick quetion: do you plan on informing Jensen of the Supernatural winning streak of the Sourcies?
It was nice to get an interview with the other star of the show and not Katie and Lauren.
Posted by: Rebecca | September 13, 2007 5:21 PM

Posted by: Ashley | September 13, 2007 5:05 PM
Why do the videos never show up for me? Had the same problem with the one of Jared only a few days ago. It's driving me nuts - anybody there who can help me?
Posted by: annie | September 13, 2007 4:37 PM

and how awesome is it, John as YED was one of my favorites too. it was an excellent twist in the show. bring on the angst.

Thank you all very much.
It is very much my pleasure to track down the stars and get you all the "skinny" on everything you want to know.
I can't wait till you all see the rest of the Vancouver trip interviews. Be prepared for lots of EXCELLENT material.
-Jason C.
Posted by: Jason C. | September 13, 2007 3:44 PM
Does Jensen have a problem looking people in the eye? Seriously! I know he's kinda shy and he's thinking about his answers, but that was weird, he wouldn't look at Jason!
Posted by: Anonymous | September 13, 2007 3:15 PM
ah thank the CW gods! its been too long since we seen any info on Jensen here at the Source!
Posted by: Kristy | September 13, 2007 3:03 PM
I love hearing interviews with Jensen, he's so thoughtful and articulate about his work and I too want to congratulate Jason on his interviewing technique, it's nice to actually get to hear what the actors think.
Posted by: Emily | September 13, 2007 2:50 PM
Jensen looks so hot and I love hearing him talk about Dean. I do hope Dean's passion for hunting does not get lost like last season.
Posted by: Katie | September 13, 2007 1:35 PM
Jensen is just fantastic - articulate about Dean, dedicated to his art and a real charmer!
We're so lucky to have him (and Jared) in our show. Good luck with Season 3, Jensen!
Posted by: Inferi-tremen | September 13, 2007 1:35 PM
Thanks for the interview,it was nice to hear his perspective on his character and why he likes playing him!!Cant wait to see how Jensen hits season 3 out of the park!!!
Posted by: magoghair | September 13, 2007 1:33 PM
I so have to agree with viv! It was great to hear Jensen talk and finish his thoughts and then have another question ready when he was done; great style Jason!
I really enjoyed the interview, it was nice to get an update on where Dean is right now, and as ever I can't wait until Season 3!
Posted by: Hannah | September 13, 2007 1:32 PM
Great interview and poor Jensen still doesn't know if Dean will live or have to face the Hellhounds. LOL
Thanks for the interview
Posted by: hermitme | September 13, 2007 1:31 PM
Thanks so much Jason! Hope you bring us more sn stuff soon. Lucky dog you get to head to Vancouver.
Posted by: Bambi | September 13, 2007 1:22 PM
Great interview! Jason, I must compliment you on your low-key interview style - it definitely encourages the actors to talk more!
