He announced it when he went into rehab.

Heh. It seems so simple when you put it like *that*.

Isn't CC on Veronica Mars? I thought she and Joss parted on somewhat bad terms, but with him recommending VM I'm guessing it wasn't bad enough for him to hold a grudge.

Have you read his whole post gushing over VM? Total fanboy. In the good way.

I believe Jack is Anthony Bourdain's middle name. Though I could be wrong. That I will then blame on the husband.

I saw a review he did of it and he liked what he saw.

I am very glad Nick is so happy and taking care of himself. I thought he was not used alot until the end of sixth season. And once again only spottingly in most of seventh. Alot of Spike scenes could have been Xander scenes. Should have been Xander scenes. Like the one in touched.

True, but there are extremely petty people who would refrain from recommending a show if they knew that someone would be on it.

I mean, I know that Joss and I aren't close personal friends or anything, but he doesn't strike me as the kind of person who would be like that. He might not recommend her for a role, but I don't think that he would dis a whole show just because an actor he had issues with/disliked was on it.

Especially if she wasn't in what delighted him so.

NB just wasn't up to doing more work in those latter seasons. They wanted to use him more but it wasn't feasible. I am glad he is back on his game and hope this new show is a success.

Okay rewatched Home.

Now does Conner belong like contractly to w&H?

I mean Angel did kill him, and they brought him back to life. So if they crumbled and were destroyed would Conner's contract be destroyed? OR like the signed shanshue is it all up in the air?

I don't think Connor was, strictly speaking, under contract. His re-creation was part of the terms of Angel's contract, but contracts pretty much have to be consented to, and there's no way any version of Connor would have signed anything like the W&R contract. The rest of the crew, however, are pretty much damned, post-mortality. W&R contracts don't break, or burn, as Wesley demonstrated, and all of them were holding VP level positions or better. My guess is that only Wes and Angel actually know this, though. None of the rest of them seem like the sort to read the fine print.

And I don't think there's any way Angel didn't make Connor's free-lance status a condition of the deal.

For that matter, I don't see any of his associate's positions, which were all contingent on him signing, involving more than the usual power corrupts-style risks to their souls if Angel had anything to say about terms.

The Big Broody, however, may be left hoping that he can outlive the Senior Partners if he doesn't want a replay of the end of "Becoming, Pt. 2" when he dies.
