Any Supernatural fan remembers the long-running gag in the Season 6 episode "The French Mistake." "Well," says a fictionalized version of real-life Supernatural manufacturer Robert Singer. "At least they're talking." 

The gag had fans in a tizzy, wondering, do the lads really now not communicate in real existence? It turns out secure to mention the line was simply a funny story, because, 10 years later, Jensen Ackles is still Dean Winchester and Jared Padalecki remains to be Sam, and the 2 nonetheless love every other like brothers.

But as the street involves an end, let's glance again on the pair's famous friendship, 15 years within the making.

Jensen and Jared bonded right through their first assembly.

According to Jared and Jensen themselves, no one else showed up on the day that they had been intended to learn for their roles. As Jared recalled all over a fan convention, "Johnny Handsome" walked in and the 2 waited for more other folks to show up, however nobody ever did. While they waited, they realized they had a good deal in common, both of them being born in Texas, being Dallas Cowboys enthusiasts, and liking country music.

Once they have been solid, their bond grew so briefly that they decided to live together during the first few seasons of the show. When Jared met Genevieve Cortese on the set of their collection, as she performed the demon Ruby in Season 4, Jensen and Jared's roommate status changed, but their friendship did not. Jensen ended up as a groomsman for Jared's wedding to Gen in February 2010.

Jared would go back the favor only a few months later in May of 2010 when he was a groomsman at Jensen's wedding ceremony. Keeping Supernatural all within the family, Jensen's spouse, Danneel Harris, would later visitor star as Sister Jo at the series.

Nowadays, Jared and Jensen both live in Austin with their households.

Though they have got spent the ultimate 15 years filming in Vancouver, Canada, both of the lads name Austin, Texas house. They are both fathers to three kids. And, similar to Danneel and Gen have turn out to be friends via their husbands, their kids have literally been friends since their births. It turns out safe to mention that the relationship that Jensen and Jared have has created a bond that can last in their families lengthy after Supernatural ends.

Back in March, and back when COVID-19 hadn't yet averted the Supernatural collection finale from airing in May, Jared shared a touching tribute to his pal on his birthday, along a photograph of their arms wrapped around every other. "In the 16 birthdays I’ve been able to share with you as a friend, you’ve become a brother. Now, we have one month left to play brothers on TV. No one I’d rather cross this finish line with ... Let’s take those boys home."

Although that end line got moved somewhat a little bit, and the Supernatural collection finale is finally almost right here, it looks as if Jensen and Jared are taking the boys home eventually. 

The ultimate episode of Supernatural airs Nov. 19 starting at Nine p.m. ET, following a retrospective particular at 8 p.m. ET on The CW.
