'Soul Purpose'


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.

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

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

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 useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

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.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Sense and Sensitivity has REALLY not aged well. Go on, act surprised.

But it did give us "Be a rainbow, not a PAINbow," so that's something.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I had almost completely forgotten about Kate.

That line is the only non-cringeworthy moment in the entire ep.

I don't know, I loved ""My parents were great. They tasted a lot like chicken!"

20 years and umpteen rewatches later, The Body still makes me sob for 43 minutes straight.

Luckily, Epiphany is a marvelous palate cleanser.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I might not ever be able to watch The Body again.

I hope too but it was brutal at the time. After my Mom didn't show up to walk dogs and I drove to her place to find her, it's more than I am prepared to do and that was 14 months ago.

I've even just moved into her house but I cannot imagine watching that ep. It was so well done.

I know I actually will one day but not today.
