I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

Angel ,'Chosen'


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.

Our wings are not tired.

Sumi! Good to see you. Yes, I just saw that and posted in Natter. Such sad news.

"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

So sad. I read that she'd recently been the recipient of a liver transplant. I guess they don't do those unless things are pretty dicey.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Oof. 39 is way too young.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I have a friend (who is young enough to be my child...sigh) who is watching Buffy for the first time and was asking for contemporaneous discussions about the show (they're on S6).

Are our old threads archived anywhere?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Archived threads are here: [link]

Caution: although there are a lot of thread titles shown there, many turn out to be empty. Explore and test before recommending.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Hey SMG just posted on Instagram the moment where she hired the lead for the new Buffy show.

It's the young actor who plays Fern on Skeleton Crew.

So charming.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Very sweet!

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

So, I'm trying to convince Aeryn that it's time to start BtVS, and Dylan kept jokingly suggesting eps we should watch first (Restless a surprisingly strong contender!)

Somehow this led to me saying something about not having the option to watch episodes out of order the first time around and BOTH of my children insisting that "you could dvr it and watch it later" and me explaining that, no, 1997 was before DVRs, too, and going into the history of When Come Back Bring Tape.

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

and going into the history of When Come Back Bring Tape.

Which is how JZ and I got together.

I first met her at the S5 Finale party she hosted in Berkeley. But early in S6 I missed an episode and we realized that she worked around the corner from me at UCSF, so she walked down and dropped the tape off with me.

And thus began the Hanging Out (which lead to the Making Out).
