It's all about the meta. This week Supernatural goes deep into the world of meta-fiction with "The French Mistake," an episode where Sam and Dean are sent to an alternate universe where they are Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, stars of Supernatural, a TV show in its sixth season. From that simple yet utterly complex premise, Supernatural takes full advantage by poking fun at itself, its stars, its producers, its creator and more.The result is pure perfection, an episode so rich and detailed that even the most eagle-eyed of die-hard fans might not catch every little detail the first time through. It's a love letter to the fans who care deeply about the show, the characters and also the team behind it. This is an episode for people who know that creator Eric Kripke stepped down as showrunner this season and that Sera Gamble took over.
