I'm not sure I buy anything Fred could do in her lab being effective against a Great Old One's predestined efforts at resurrection.
My thought at the time was that she injected herself with the crystal creature venom.
It's a real burden being right so often.

Angel 5: Is That It? Am I Done?
[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
It turns out that Buffy S7 and Angel S5, while both final seasons for their respective series, are not the same thing. This dawned on me in the middle of Firefly. The resulting exclamation startled my visitors, to say the least. I am very sorry for causing confusion and extra work.Hee. Right after I checked Costco's site I wondered if maybe it was a last season mix-up because my brain suddenly did the same thing. No worries at all.
I think the way they did it just felt very rushed --- like the writers thought, gee, we have to wrap the show up, and we haven't established this Sooper Sekrit Villain Cabal yet, let's just toss 'em in there anyhow.
The one saving grace for me was that they were all players that Angel & Co. had been introduced to earlier in the season via their work at Wolfram & Hart.It felt very very rushed to me, but then the show was ending... I just did a little mental hand-waving about the whole SSVC being so easily destroyed.

Art Crawl!!!
We are, in fact, getting Season 5 dvds before Region 2 is -- the only time for either Buffy or Angel that this has happened, I think.

If I only had a brain...
Lost leapt on Angel writers as soon as the cancellation was known.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Good to see the Ultimate Drew abuse keeping up"
"It's cool," Abrams says, "that the 'Lost' writers' building is right across the way from the 'Alias' one. I'll be looking for Fury, and Fury will be in Bell's office, talking about an episode of 'Lost' or 'Alias.' I'll go over and be at 'Lost,' and Drew Goddard wrote an episode of 'Lost,' so Drew will be over there -- crying, I think."
"He's a very weepy man," Bell says.
"He's tall and weepy," Abrams says.
"Evidently," Bell says, "it's not easy being tall and handsome. There's a lot of weeping going on."
"I would know," Abrams says, "being as tall as I am and good-looking."

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I love the idea of Abrams poaching Mutant Enemy for talent as soon as the axe fell. "Hey little boy, would you like a piece of candystorywriting responsibility on an angsty genre-crossing drama airing on network TV? With an obsessed internet-savvy fanbase?"

Smart man, that Abrams.

The lost storyline I mourn most is the robotic Watchers that led to Wes shooting "Dad." Who were they? What were they doing? How is Wes' Dad involved?
Curse you, WB. Curse you.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
OK, I'm rewatching "To Shanshu in L.A." (it's been a loooong while since I watched it last) because I was talking about it earlier elsewhere, and Wesley looks absolutely *scrumptious* in it. He's all angsted out about the prophecy, with furrowed brows and 5 o'clock shadows and hair sticking up and looking damn near S3-worthy scruffy. I had no idea. Yumm.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Yes, he was yummy. It just serves to point out how good an actor he is with clumsy, geeky S1 Wesley. You'd think he was made for an interminable run in The Importance of Being Earnest. And then he comes on with the scruff and the shadow and the angst and the rrrowrrr.
Why do I have the feeling that AD is probably closer to geek-Wesley?
