Read the interview below!
Nerds & Beyond: You attend a lot of conventions all over the world. What has been a memorable or favorite place that you visited for a convention?
Felicia Day: It has to be Hawaii for the Creation conventions. I also went to Poland once, which is incredible, and what a wonderful opportunity to be able to go somewhere new, where I have tons of family and roots. Actually, I discovered that after that trip, so it was a really cool thing that added to my life in a way that was special. And the Hawaii trip was just the funnest weekend I’ve ever had.
Nerds & Beyond: Is there a city or country that you haven’t been to yet that you’d like to go to for a convention?
Felicia: Wow, yes, I would love to go to Japan. It’s something that’s been on my bucket list forever. I think I might be going this summer, just with my family. I haven’t had a work excuse to do it. But for sure, it’s been one of those things that I’ve held out for. I haven’t explored Asia nearly as much as I would like. I’d love the opportunity to go there.
Nerds & Beyond: For Creation conventions specifically, what’s your favorite part about those and celebrating Supernatural and Charlie?
Felicia: I love Charlie. She’s a character that’s so close to my heart. It’s pretty strange to kind of play a character that has strengthened me over the years, and aspects of her were there that are so strong in me, but didn’t come out until after I acted and played her on screen. I just love to see people loving Charlie. It’s such a privilege, and she’s such a character that is unrepresented in the world. Women are very glossy on camera, and they’re either super, super character-y or they’re super, super gorgeous, glamorous. And that’s not everybody. That’s usually, it’s actually 1% of people. So to see authenticity of a fan girl on screen is just really resonant, I think, for me and for the people who love Supernatural.
Nerds & Beyond: Recently, the number of first-time convention goers has significantly increased at the Supernatural conventions. Does it surprise you that people are still discovering the show, and what has been your reaction to seeing how many new people are coming to the conventions?
Felicia: I think it’s wonderful. And the show is certainly more popular now than it was when it went off the air, quite frankly, and I think it’s because of the content that people are making now. We’re all watching shows. We don’t have shows that have so many episodes that you can really immerse yourself in the characters. I mean, aside from Stranger Things, I can’t think of a show where people are loving the characters so much. When you have eight episodes every two years, it’s just not the comfort level of a show that I think a lot of people crave. And they’re just not out there unless you want to watch Law and Order. So to have Supernatural be found by fans of all ages way after the show ended is so gratifying, and it really gives me hope that we can continue the story somehow with the cast.
Nerds & Beyond: What is something that conventions, being around your castmates, or meeting fans has taught you?
Felicia: It’s taught me that there are so many interesting people who are part of fandom. And I learn something from fans. Every single time I do a con, I’ll meet people who are astronauts. I met a person who helped design the Treasury coins. I’ve met people who were world-famous microbiologists and people who own wolf rescues, and it just really makes me feel like I belong to a group of people that is super inspiring, and I’m so lucky that they like my work. I work in Hollywood, and Hollywood right now especially is not very original. And a lot of the things that they offer and the way they think about characters and story is very narrow and very resonant, to be honest with you. And I think that the more you can have face-to-face, in-person contact, then you get a sense of people’s reality, and you connect on an authentic level. And that’s what I’m always trying to get in my work, but also in my interaction with people, truth and authenticity, and that’s what conventions give you. You know, we’re all people, we’re all doing a job, but we’re all celebrating in this communal world we’re creating as a family.
Nerds & Beyond: The fandom is a big part of why Supernatural and the conventions have been so successful. If you had to say something directly to the fans, what would you say?
Felicia: I would say thank you for being a part of one of the longest-running TV shows in history. Thank you for supporting content in a way that surprises the big people who fund all the things. Because really, the fans have dictated where the show has gone. It’s dictated how long the show was on the air, and they’ve dictated how much of a life we’ve gotten and continue to have because of their celebration of the show. And so I would just say that we love the show as much as you guys do. We’re all in together, and that’s what makes it special.
