There's also no essay on Gunn, sad to say.
That is so wrong.
But, sounds like a cool read. I think I'll have to check it out.
There's more than one way to skin a cat. And I happen to know that's factually true.

[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.

I didn't get the Amy Acker love until Illyria showed up. It's always fun to see actors whipsaw between utterly different characters.

Respect is Back. Fear is Next.
Smile Time was the perfect antidote to what had been a very long and busy day when it first aired. I could not stop laughing throughout the episode. In terms of the Buffy and Angel series, that made it into my personal top 20 episodes.

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...
Whoa whoa whoa, peoples. In case it wasn't clear, I think Amy Acker is as ridiculously pretty as the next guy. I was merely using Joss' standard deadpan sarcasm that he employs on the commentaries. And in case he's not clear either, he, too, thinks Amy Acker is as ridiculously pretty as the next guy.
Urge to kill Polter-Cow...lowering. Deadpan sarcasm doesn't always work when typed.
The Angel book sounds like a great read, I'll try to pick it up.
Speaking of great reads, I formulated a question today that I'd like to ask: Are there any literary works (generally I think this is a literate bunch) that remind you of a Buffy or Angel episode or vice-versa? I'll start...
W. H. Auden's Musee des Beaux Arts: [link]
I'm always reminded of this poem during the scene in "The Body" where the Scoobies are basically falling apart with grief (Anya doesn't understand, Willow can't make decisions, Xander punches the wall) and the last thing we see in the scene is of a cop ticketing Xander's car, which he had only meant to park for a few minutes, and of course the cop has no idea why it has been parked there for so long. As in Auden's poem, the mundanities of life go on amidst the suffering of a few people.

Bugger...don't you hate it when you think you have a decent idea and then it kills a thread?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
As in Auden's poem, the mundanities of life go on amidst the suffering of a few people.
The Auden poem Funeral Blues that was in Four Weddings and a Funeral is like that. It makes me cry every time.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Oh goodness yes, and in John Hannah's lovely burr, too. ::snif::

Art Crawl!!!
There is an Official Season 5 DVD website and this is funny:
In the section called "Cast" when I clicked on Cordelia's name (who shouldn't have been there, you know?) -- it went to Spike.

"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
He pretty much stepped into her role on Angel just as he did on Buffy years earlier. Maybe the website designer was a regular watcher?
