On what his relationship with Jensen means to him: "It's really special. You know, he's been around for births and deaths in my life and vice versa. Triumphs and losses . . . and he's not the only one, obviously. It's been he and I for the longest, but I've met a lot of people that have changed my life and remain pretty special to me."
On why they work so well together: "We're really good buddies and that's been probably the best thing about Supernatural. In the last three years of my life, I've spent more time with Jensen Ackles than with any other human being and vice versa. Luckily, we get along really well and we are very similar guys. We're both from Texas, we both love our families, the same kind of music, and the Dallas Cowboys. It's been a huge blessing to work with somebody who is easygoing on set and who I'm friends with."
On how their bond is just as strong off screen: "The best part about Jensen and my relationship is it's gonna be that way when we're on the show and not. I mean, unfortunately for him, he's stuck with me for life now and that's important."
