Yay more stories! *puts that link away to be read later*
I'm not sure how much time had passed between cancelling the show and recording the commentaries. I'm sure that whatever words and actions the writers gave Alec, Jensen Ackles would have found a way for it to work in character. He's one of those actors who's amazing at created layered characters no matter what sort of crappy line he has to say. ... but I do think it would have been sloppy character development. It's one thing to have him freak out a little and take a step back. It's another to have him just decide to abandon everyone so he can find more hookers and blow.
