'Dirty Girls'
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.
Unfortunately, unless you were really going out of your way to avoid spoilers, it was pretty common knowledge at that point that Angel was in the early planning stages
Oddly, I don't recall knowing about the spin-off until sometime in Season 3. And I was a regular at the Bronze in 1998.
I definitely knew about the Angel spin-off when "Becoming" aired, because that's why I was so surprised by what happened. I think I was just lurking on usenet at the time.
And, er, this is maybe a little tacky, but I was given a "Liam/Angelus" doll (with ceremonial skull!) and I took pictures, and, well... I think they're funny. Or the last one is, anyway. Look, just humor me.
Dial-up folk, be advised that there are 5 (crappy, medium-sized) photos.
the last one is my favorite, Strega. it actually looks like DB dancing, which may or may not be an insult to DB.
Heh, thanks. I have to take more, because later I realized that you can raise the stand enough to hold him up above the ground (or table, whatever). He can fly!
Those were really funny. (Funny enough that I'm commenting on how funny they are twice.)
I'm sad that I lost all my action figure action shots in the great hard drive crash of '02, but honestly, none of them were that good.
Too funny. The skull is very fancy. The dancing, well, the dancing is always funny, isn't it?
Strega, that's too funny to look at, first thing in the morning.
the last one is my favorite, Strega. it actually looks like DB dancing, which may or may not be an insult to DB.It really does.
I just read in yesterday's paper that Michelle Branch and her husband Teddy Landau (who is in her band) had their first child recently, a boy girl, and named him her Owen. The paper says she's 22. She's that young?
Oh, just found confirmation on E!online [link]
Around the time Monique started posting the Dawn FAQ
That was back in my fandom youth. When I thought I could make a difference. Ah, memories...
Narrator and Cindy, have you listened to Nick's Audioblogs yet? There are no Speedos, but maybe I could have him work them into future entries.
As for B1 and B2, I was nowhere near the fandom at the time, and worked nights. I really liked the show, which meant I actually taped it and watched it when I got home from work -- other shows, I was just too lazy to go through all the hassle of buying tapes. I remember watching it at about 1:30 a.m., and my mouth just dropping open. Then I hit rewind and watched it all over again, just to make sure I had actually seen what I thought I had just seen. I was completely stunned.
As funny as the photos were, it was the "Oops! Oh no, my soul!" caption that cracked me up the most.
