My mother was really into Grey's Anatomy and she kept telling me about this Denny guy. "Have you seen Denny? Oh, he just breaks my heart!"

Now, you need to know my mother to know that if there is a character that just breaks her heart, he has to really be something special. And it turned out, he really was. At least in my own personal experience, I discovered that the actor, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, was.

I never watched Grey's Anatomy, but I had been coerced by a friend to start watching Supernatural over the hiatus and I became instantly addicted to it. I mainlined the entire season in the course of a weekend and when I first saw John Winchester when he went back to Lincoln, Nebraska in 'Home', I fell in love. Those two minutes that he was on my television screen were just enough to have me completely enamored with him. To see him play a character whose heart is breaking is enough to make your own heart ache.

It's been a long time since I have encountered an actor that I found to be so expressive and just completely involved in what he does. I look at him and he is John Winchester. There isn't another person on the face of this planet who could have played that role and that really says a lot about him. By the time he was in 'Shadows', my eyes filled with tears when I saw him for the first time. He was crying and he had ME crying. Now that is powerful stuff. And I don't have to mention watching him in 'In My Time of Dying.' I'm still trying to recover from that and it's been six weeks since it aired.

I admit that I am going to miss him like nobody's business from Supernatural. But he sure did help Kleenex's stock go up the night that In My Time of Dying aired. He gave such an incredible performance, he had turned dying into an art-form. Now if he could just score a role where he lives, there would be a number of very, very happy fans out there.

We're crossing our fingers for that day to come sometime soon.
