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.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

...Huh. Do you think the people who put that together actually ever watched Buffy?

Heh. Considering they called it "Sunnyvale," I'd say no.

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

Good collection of eps, but most of them really need context. (Hush and Halloween will work on their own, but Passion? The Wish, maybe, but if you have no idea what the characters are like normally, the AU thing's not going to have much impact.)

I'd hoped someone would catch that. Heh.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Good collection of eps, but most of them really need context.

Also, both of the Halloween episodes lean towards the funny rather than the scary. "Fear, Itself" has a few good jump moments, but any show with Sombrero!Giles (now with chainsaw action), Bunny-suit!Anya, and Actual-size!demon is not especially dark. And I'd consider it the scarier of the two.

Because books.

Anybody remember in which episode Spike tells Riley that Buffy likes a little monster in her man? Anybody remember the exact quote?

The demon eggs episode. When Riley comes back with his wife. Some time in S6. Was it "As You Were"?

Nope. The interbunny tells me it was S5, "Into the Woods," and the quote was "The girl needs some monster in her man... and that's not in your nature... no matter how low you try to go."

Ah! Could be.

I was thinking of the one where Buffy's at the hospital, and Riley doesn't know it, but you may be right. My memory, she ain't so reliable anymore...

AmyLiz, check my edit. Though I think Spike does say it again when Riley walks in on them in the crypt in "As You Were."

And yes, a little more searching on the interpipe tells me that Spike did also use that phrase in "As You Were" -- "What can I say, she needs a little monster in her man."
