"Oh, so you're the one who sees."
Can we maybe vote on the whole murdering people issue?

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.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Thank you, connie. Awesome.
The One Who Sees. Good title.

that bit is the source of much fic speculation. I'm very annoyed with Joss for throwing out these delicious tidbits without more explanation.

But if he'd taken time to explain, we might have had to forego one of Buffy's inspirational speeches to the Potentials!

Ann, that's a ferret.
And the downside, Matt?

I still wish they'd CGI'd a bug or soap bubble passing through her during one of those.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda
"The Body" was on FX this morning. Still gets me every. time. Especially Anya's little speech.

What is even happening?
Am I the only Buffista who had mixed reactions to Anya's fruit punch speech? On one level, I was touched, but on another (even the first time I saw the episode), I felt manipulated, and it felt like a conscious attempt on Joss's part to capture the this-side-of-the-mortal-coil feel of Emily's Goodbye to clocks ticking speech from Thornton Wilder's Our Town.
By the by, I don't mean to disrespect The Body. Like a few other episodes of BtVS, it holds a perennial spot on my great TV list. I know I have some Anya issues, and many of them involve the writers' (what I saw as) over-reliance on the I-am-recently-human facet the character, so my reaction to that speech will never be all that pure.
