One of the highlights of going to Salt Lake Comic Con events is seeing the "Twisted Toonz" panel, where voice actors of our favorite childhood cartoons come together and do a script read of a popular movie.

Supernatural is the longest running show on the CW with one of the largest fan bases in the world. With parodies, cons dedicated specifically to the show, and a following that is hard to match, getting to have a moment with any of the cast is pretty amazing.
