[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.

I may have to seize the cat.

No, it was Mark Fish.

That's what I thought I saw in the credits and then I second-guessed myself and checked the interweb. Now I feel slightly less crazy. Thank you, Kristen! (That is a real thank you and not a sarcastic thank you. The internet makes me feel a need to clarify these things.)

Okay, now that you mention it, I do seem to recall that Pamie hated WF.

Just a drive-by, mostly non-related comment:

I second Polter-Cow's motion that the "just kidding, I'm really gonna kill myself, not you" moment be retired as an overused TV cliche.

Not just TV, movies too. I caught it at the end of Tomb Raider 2: Let's Make Another Crappy Tomb Raider Movie the other day (my mom was flipping channels).

Actually, Laura shot what's-his-name at the end of the move. He didn't shoot himself. (I can't remember the character's name...wait... I think it was Terry Sheridan. Damn my brain cells that can remember all sorts of useless trivia, but can't be depended upon to retain the stuff employers value. Anyway, he was played by Gerard Butler, aka "The Phantom of the Opera." Looks mighty fine in tight pants and a cape.) (This message brought to you by Morgana's overactive hormones. Sorry.)

Restraining the Michael Crawford fangirl within.... There, I beat her down. Good deal.

Proceed!

(By the way, my family's beagle ate me yesterday. Really. She started with my ears, and before I knew it, I was being digested. She's so cute! Curse her.)

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

It was quite the fiery hate and utter disdain, it was.

Actually, Laura shot what's-his-name at the end of the move. He didn't shoot himself.

Oh, well, I didn't have a clue what was going on in that scene, but it looked like he was holding the gun, so that's where my conclusion came from. Hell, I thought it was the end of Beyond Borders at first.

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

But not as much as he really wants to rip someone's face off.

Hey!

"Either it's murder, or this library has a very strict overdue policy."

I do sometimes wonder if I watch the same thing as other people.

Kevin, me too. Me too. At my local Swedish Buffy-board, some people just don't watch the same show as I do at all. (Those who don't like the Inside there also dislike House. That's the only common denominator I've found so far.)

What is even happening?

Wonderfalls could have been my next one-true-love. I can't believe anyone could hate it. I know people did, but I can't wrap my mind around it.

It would be like not enjoying Wesley on Angel. *cough*

Mine too, Cindy. It could have been, but it was taken away.

And then Veronica Mars came along.

Hell, I love Wonderfalls. True, true love. Only 13 episodes but it still beat down all seven seasons of Buffy hands down. It was frightening to watch.
