Possible Context: Fans found out that Misha/Cas wasn’t going to be in the 200th episode (“Fanfiction” season 10 episode 05 ). Certain factions of the fandom were upset over this, and made their upset known on social media. Fandom fights then occurred over this issue for a while. And then on September 17 Adam decided to create this series of tweets in response:

AdamGlass44: ”It's almost impossible to say anything about #Supernatural without pissing off someone in our fandom but here goes nothing. The show starts”- 11:48 AM Sep 17, 2014

AdamGlass44: “With Sam and Dean but for anybody to deny the contribution that Cas has brought to #Superatural is crazy. @mishacollins is woven into the” - 11:49 AM Sep 17, 2014

AdamGlass44: “Fabric of #Supernatural and has been a great help in sustaining the show. As has Mark_Sheppard these past few years. Great shows are as”- 11:51 AM Sep 17, 2014

AdamGlass44: “Good as not only their leads but also by their supporting cast. And we on #Supernatural have both. And we should rejoice in that not fight.” - 11:52 AM Sep 17, 2014

After an hour later Adam then tweets out:

AdamGlass44: “Mark_Sheppard mishacollins r contracted 4 a certain amount of #SPN episodes, so we can't use them all the time. Thus they r in what we can”- 12:56 PM Sep 17, 2014

Then Adam started to respond to a few fans in the replies of the tweet above:

AdamGlass44: “relahventharry Mark_Sheppard mishacollins ask them. They will tell you it's the truth. It's also online. Look it up.” - 12:58 PM Sep 17, 2014

ryan_curtis: “AdamGlass44 Mark_Sheppard mishacollins pretty sure season 10 is the most for both isn't it?”- Sep 17, 2014

AdamGlass44: “ryan_curtis Mark_Sheppard mishacollins yup and people who say great excuse can look it up. It's public record.” - 12:59 PM Sep 17 2014

And then clarified in another tweet that he wasn’t pressured into saying anything:

AdamGlass44: “BTW, no one did anything that made me say these #SPN things. They were just on my mind and I felt like sharing them. No one bullying me.” - 1:02 PM Sep 17, 2014

(...) Here’s how the Q Scores marketing company arrives at its results for its clients, which include television networks, among others: President Henry Schafer and his team provide a celebrity’s name and a brief description to more than 1,800 study participants. The viewers are asked if they recognize the person and how they feel about him or her. The outcome of that study is a Recognition score, a Positive Q Score — meaning the individual in question is the respondent’s favorites — and a Negative Q Score, which is the exact opposite of what one hopes to be associated with. “TV personality Q Score metrics provide unique insight into the momentum that primetime casts bring to the opening of the fall television season,” Schafer told TheWrap. “For returning shows, personality-driven appeal is extremely important for determining how strong or polarizing the cast is for maintaining viewer commitment,” he added. “For new shows, the strength of the personality driven-factor is very important for enticing viewer sampling prior to exposure to the quality of the storylines.” The men in this ranking averaged a 24 recognition number and an 19 Positive Q Score. Across all actors the company has compiled, the average familiarity number is a much higher 44, but the same 19 Q Score. In this study, CBS pulled nine slots in the Top 21 (there was a tie taking us beyond 20), NBC had four. ABC scored three, as did the CW. Fox had just two. (...)
