Take away the jaunty music, however, and it’s easy to see why Jared Padalecki had such a hard time filming “Mystery Spot.”
The episode got pretty dark after the end of the Groundhog Day gag as well, so Jared Padalecki didn’t even get a break from the gloom and doom after he was done filming Dean’s many deaths.
Supernatural returns to The CW for Season 12 on Thursday, October 13 at 9 p.m. ET.
Padalecki played Sam’s heartbreak and frustration every single time he had to watch his beloved big brother die, and it had to be exhausting.
