Aw, I was expecting new fun stuff. That video was linked here a little while back, Hec. Get my hopes up, why don't you?
'Objects In Space'
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 just saw the actress who played Halfrek on a preview for a new show on NBC called Teachers.
I liked the video from Veronica Mars the best because of its sheer efficiency at delivering the Alyson storyline only. It's like you hired somebody to fastforward your Tivo for you. Someday episodes of TV shows on DVDs will let you watch "The A plot" or "The B plot" and skip all that annoying "There's no Urkel on screen here, yet they keep filming!" footage.
I looked at Wikipedia for Spike, and it says that Joss declared William's last name to be Pratt (for pun of "prat" and because it's Boris Karloff's birth name). There was no citation for Joss saying that, and I'm wondering if anyone else has the information.
It was in the Spike comic book, Old Times.
Huh. Still, Pratt. I wish Joss had decided to resist the pun.
X-posted from movies: Jonathan Woodward (he of the ME trifecta) is playing Bettie Page's boyfriend in THE NOTORIOUS BETTIE PAGE.
Bear with me, this is BtVS-related. Truthdig did an article recently on a book by Robert Scheer, Playing President: My Close Encounters with Nixon, Carter, Bush I, Reagan, and Clinton--and How They Did Not Prepare Me for George W. Bush. In the comments after the article, there's a Buffy reference. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the page.
I googled the name in question, in case the writers took it from history, and found no historical reference for the name. The commenter is one of us!
What name did you mean?
If it's the Kakistocratic thing -- that's actually a type of government. .. although not a recommended one.
Sounds like an interesting book, but I am a little annoyed that he spelled Jesse Jackson's name wrong.
