Supernatural Brings Back Meg
by Ileane Rudolph June 30, 2009 10:39 AM EST
For those who’ve been wondering what happened to Meg, the sassy demon with a huge grudge against Supernatural’s Winchester brothers, she’s back! And Rachel Miner, the former Mrs. Macaulay Culkin, who got her start on Guiding Light and was most recently seen as a bisexual S&M practicing character on Californication, is playing the character, last seen in Season 2. “I’ve been wondering, what Meg’s doing out there,” creator Eric Kripke tells TV Guide Magazine exclusively. “I’ve been continually asking the writers, ‘Where’s Meg?” She’s would make a really formidable adversary. I got impatient and ended up writing her into my own script.” So far, Miner’s been signed for one episode.
~~~~~
So I guess that casting call for Meg we saw a week or so ago was indeed real!
But...that photo of Miner at TVGuide's site...she looks like she's twelve years old. Personally, I think she's got HUGE shoes to fill, because Nicki was AMAZING as Meg, and I'm not really sure I'm keen on another actress playing that character.
What do you guys think? Glad to see Meg back in another body, or should we have seen the last of Meg with Nicki?

Date: 2009-07-01 05:46 pm (UTC)No way! Ok, that's a bizarre coincidence!
Of course, that's different because then I can picture her acting the way I want.
Exactly. Much easier to picture it in your own head than actually on screen.
Having another actress portray her, though? Hmmm...huge shoes to fill, indeed. I don't know that anyone will ever play her the way Nikki did, but I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt.
I know I'll miss Nicki, because I loved her performance as Meg.
I just hope Miner's got the chops to pull off being a demon, because Katie and Genevieve surely couldn't! And she needs to act like Nicki did, not a complete 180 turn around in attitude like when we went from Katie's Ruby to Genevieve's Ruby.
I don't know why Meg needs to come back at all. It's like Eric has a compulsion to always have a female demon on the show.

Date: 2009-07-01 01:47 am (UTC)Plus, she's pretty short, I think. They couldn't possibly try to have her be a love interest when the height difference is so big!

She does look young, but that could be a plus. (I think the most effective demon they had was the little blonde girl who played Lilith.)
I preferred Lilith to be in a child's body. Both those girls did a great job. And it was extra creepy because she was a child. I couldn't stand the the actress who played the grown up version in the last few episodes.
Plus, she's pretty short, I think. They couldn't possibly try to have her be a love interest when the height difference is so big!
LOL! I love your reasoning! :-)

Date: 2009-07-01 05:44 pm (UTC)That's what I'm afraid of. Because I loved Nicki's version of Meg. I guess I'm wondering why we need to bring Meg back again. It's like Eric has a compulsion to always have a female demon on the show.
This will be an interesting part for her.
I really hope she's got the chops to pull off being a demon, because IMO, Katie and Genevieve surely couldn't. And she needs to act like Nicki did, not a complete 180 turn around in attitude like when we went from Katie's Ruby to Genevieve's Ruby.

Date: 2009-07-02 07:44 pm (UTC)Geez, me, either! Not from day one! So many people were convinced that she was a good demon, but I never bought it for a second.
Depends how they write her this time
Very true. If they don't keep the dialogue true to Nicki's version it's not gonna work.
