SUPERNATURAL Season 7 Charisma Boost

A couple days ago, Charisma Carpenter let her fans know she was going to be on The CW’s Supernatural via her Twitter account. This is fantastic news. Carpenter is best known for her role as Cordelia Chase in both Buffy the Vampire Slayer and its spin-off Angel. She should feel right at home in Supernatural. And how exactly did Carpenter react to being cast?

“My people called me yesterday to see if I wanted to do it and I’m like, ‘Yeah, I’d love to go to Vancouver in the summer!’” Carpenter said. “It’s probably one of my all-time favorite cities.”

Aw, thanks for the love Charisma!

Speaking of Buffy, another former cast member will appear in Supernatural. TVLine reported that James Marsters, who played the vampire Spike, will join Carpenter in the show’s fifth episode, titled “Shut Up, Dr. Phil” (gotta love those Supernatural titles!), where they will be play husband and wife. “This episode is ‘Bewitched gone wrong,’” says showrunner Sera Gamble. “[It was] all upside for this successful man (Marsters) while he was married to the witch (Carpenter), but now that he’s pissed her off, the whole town is paying the price.”

Supernatural Season 7 – Sheriff Back in Town?

So not only are we getting a big Buffy/Angel reunion, but also we’re getting the return of witches to Supernatural. What a splendid gift to us! I will be heavily disappointed if the episode is chalked full of references Buffy. Supernatural wouldn’t pass up the opportunity to add some tongue-in-cheek jokes just for fun. Filming for the episode begins the week of August 22.
