Willow ,'Conversations with Dead People'


Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Yep, that would certainly work.

The prospective for the "reboot" has already gotten so much better than when I first heard about it, I'm cautiously optimistic that whatever ends up on screen may very well please me.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

My gut feeling is that they will do a reboot/reimagining.

Our new black Buffy will be First Of Her Name. She will have a Giles and a Willow and a Xander and one of them will be gay, and maybe her watcher is a woman etc.

In a way they could do it like the Dini animated version of Batman which just cherry picked the best stories and smoothed them out into one timeline. And this way they could correct some of the bigger mistakes such as Spike's rape attempt, or Dead Lesbian Trope, or Willow's power grab equated with addiction.

I think the interesting angle is that you could find the metaphorical angle on black experience in America as Hell in the same way OG Buffy explored High school as Hell.

Vortex, I like your plan!

Certainly very possible

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

DB says Buffy reboot sounds great, ok with him to recast Angel

What is even happening?

Maxium Hairloaf:

In fact, unlike Buffy fans, the actor doesn't sound perturbed at the notion of someone else donning's Angel's signature leather jacket, should that be the direction Owusu-Breen chooses to go. "[Angel] doesn't age, so it's not like he's not around! Whatever they want to do with the character, it's such a wide, huge universe, you can really go anywhere with characters. I think the storylines will somehow reflect what the characters were about in the past. It's all bloodline, so to speak. Ironic that I called it that! There's always a bloodline somewhere, right?"

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Been rewatching Angel for the first time since the initial showing. I forgot how much I love the show theme music.

Our wings are not tired.

Theme music of beloved shows = comfort food.

Oooh, that's a super interesting read! Nice to hear about arbitration going apparently fairly

I don't know why I asked this on Twitter, when I could ask it here, instead.

It seems to me the reason Dru just sort of whammied Kendra & killed her without a fight in Becoming, is because one of the stunt doubles was hurt, but I can't find a source. Does anyone remember? Does anyone have an online source? My Google-fu is broken.
