I think Misha is kind of a troll heh. Not in a bad way, but he has fun playing around with the fans and there's a sense of it's fine to ask Misha these questions, half the Destial shippers on tumblr seemed convinced that it was going to happen in canon because of quotes from Misha this season :scratches head: Whilst people seem to draw the line when it comes to the other actors
I haven't watched for a while either. Not for lack of caring, just I'm falling behind on so much tv anyway, and I never ended up starting season 8 because everyone was so negative about the brother moments and how Sam was being portrayed as not looking for his brother. But the second half reviews are much happier, so I'm planning to catch up with season 8 soonish, or over the summer at least. I've still been following fandom and the reviews for it though lol, which is kind of odd I suppose :P
Supposedly there was an episode in season 8 with a guy hitting on Dean which suggested that Dean wouldn't be totally opposed by it. I'm just going on heresy for that of course, but definitely I think the later seasons saw the writers responding a lot more to fandom and giving them more subtext to play around with, i.e in Changing Channels it's hard not to see some subtext in Dean's awkward shuffling respondes around "Dr.Sexy". Yet it seems to be a complete faux pas for fans to treat it as anything more than the writers having a wink wink joke with the audience
