Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Riley ,'Potential'


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.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

I wonder if Harry Groener knows that there's a group of people who think "OH NO NOT HIM" every time we see him in anything. (still not over him being the Designated Survivor on The West Wing)

What is even happening?

I just get a kick out of the "fact" that the Mayor of Sunnydale is Ted Mosby's hippy drippy stepfather, Clint, in How I Met Your Mother.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Still not a fan of Amends and the magical forgiveness snow.

The now-officially-a-teenager wanted to see more of the Wishverse. But I promised no spoilers so I didn't say anything...

We have turned the corner and started S4/AtS S1 last night. S4 is such a culture shock it's almost like starting two completely new shows.

I had forgotten how much I love the Angel theme music. And also how INTENSELY pulpy AtS was in the early days. SMASH CUT TO THE LIBRARY! WE'RE GONNA RESEARCH THE SHIT OUT OF THIS CASE BECAUSE THIS IS A DETECTIVE AGENCY SHOW! BROOD! BROOD HARDER!

I remember someone saying (here, maybe?) that "It doesn't make even the slightest attempt to not be Batman."

I mean, the very first thing Doyle says is calling Angel's apartment the Batcave, so.

"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

Remember when Angel used a grappling hook gun in one of the early episodes?

This happened last night in Lonely Hearts (ep2)!

Which also contains an explicit reference to the bat signal and a subplot where the vigilante main character who is never seen during the day and wears an extremely dramatic cape coat strikes up a tentative alliance with a police officer. SUCH SUBTLETY.

(I love it so much. Oh AtS I'm so glad I decided to rewatch you.)

Sense and Sensitivity has REALLY not aged well. Go on, act surprised. (Not that it was a top-tier ep the first time around, but against the backdrop of today's real world...yikes.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I thought for a second you were talking about Sense and Sensibility, and I was prepared to defend Emma Thompson and Ang Lee with my life.
