[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That is correct. She looks very good blonde.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

How was "Five Days..."? Worthwhile so far?

It's in the second hour. It's getting cooler with the "It was in the briefcase! And now it's happened!" business. I'm into that shit. It's definitely intriguing, but that's a function of the premise.

The interesting thing is it's being treated realistically. As in, since the characters don't know they're in a sci-fi movie, they're treating it as if it's a hoax.

Hey. New board.

Mmm. The Body.

Every time I see that episode, it gets better. The last time I saw it, it finally surpassed "Hush" as my second favorite Buffy ep. Because "Hush" doesn't impress as much on continued viewings (still awesome, plus, yay!, Tara intro, but not much MORE awesome), while "The Body" just becomes more and more impressive.

I also like that Tim episode, "The Horrible Painful Death of Spike." Though I wish they'd left in the extra scenes on the DVD - you know, the exclusive, real-fans-only Dawn Massacre scene.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

you know, the exclusive, real-fans-only Dawn Massacre scene.

I sooo wanted to see that.

I can't even.

They should film this double-feature and show it every ... day.

Hush still ahead of The Body on my Enjoy-O-meter. Don't see that changing.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that. I love "Hush." It's just so brilliantly constructed and shot. And funny.

Hush is my favorite. Always will be.

Hey. New board.

Yeah, they cancelled the Dawn massacre section when they realized that so many people would enjoy it, rather than get overwhelmingly sad and depressed. Tim wouldn't go for a happy death. You know how he is.

(Personally? Sad. Love Dawn. Whatev'.)

(If anybody asks, I'm not here. I'm working.)

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I still can't figure out why we were tortured with Dawn. Or SaintCordy. Why torture the audience? Why was 15 year old Dawn written as a 9 year old spoiled brat?

Did they not learn from Oliver on the Brady Bunch? WTF?

ETA: Why didn't they just buy Buffy a puppy?
