Oh Lord. I have no doubt that the February 25 meta episode of Supernatural - where Sam and Dean find themselves playing the actors who actually play them - is going to funny. To back this up, I'd like to present to you exhibit A: the video below. You can also view another sneak peek for this episode here.
TV Line first released this trailer that The CW will likely release next week to promote the upcoming meta episode, entitled "The French Mistake". In some respects, it's reminiscent of both "Hollywood Babylon" and the other self-referential episodes the show has done (such as "The Monster at the End of This Book" and "The Real Ghostbusters"). The trailer shows us Sam and Dean being forced to act like Jensen and Jared (or, as Sam says: "a Jared Padalecki"). It's all so dramatic with the voice-over guy that you can't help but laugh as the boys are thrown into walls while dangling from wires and Dean freaks out when they smear makeup on his face.
But the best part may be when Misha Collins starts sobbing when a knife gets put to his throat.
We know that the boys are transported into an alternate reality by Balthazar when Raphael sets an angelic hitman after Castiel and his friends. We also know that Genevieve Cortese will be making a re-appearance on the show, playing Jared's wife (which she is, in real life).
This may be the greatest Supernatural episode ever, folks. Marvel at the trailer below, then go take a look at promo photos for the episode. And if you missed it, check out the slide-show we posted earlier today about Supernatural's best villains.

Possibly the most meta episode of TV ever! Love the fact that Supernatural is so playful with the genre and medium. Can't wait!
