Nicholas Brendon is getting good reviews in a play running in Los Angeles. (registration or bugmenot required for LA Times)
It's a play about Salvador Dali's brief stint working at Disney. Dali is played by...Noah Wylie.
These girls have the most beautiful dresses. And so do I -- how about that?

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…

Lobster Alice! Huzzah!
(It debuted at the Jungle Theater right when I moved back to the Cities. Actually not a large fan of the play, but glad to see more exposure.)

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
So, I got home and found a message I my answering machine from a woman who is half a couple I've had the first season of Buffy out to for years but they've never watched, in the hope of converting them (someone tried to convert the husband OUAT, and the episode in question was "Innocence" where he decided the way they dealt with the judge was so stupid vis-a-vis the prophecy for him that he's never given it a chance since), and who I did convert to FIREFLY and FARSCAPE.
The message? "Do you have the first season of ANGEL, because I've been watching it at the gym, because it's a lot better than the alternative watching the middle east bomb the crap out of each other, and I really like it.", or words to that effect. Better a late toaster than never, I guess.

Well, you really can't have too much toast.
OUATWhat does that mean?

Once upon a time. Probably should be OUaT.

Hey. New board.
he decided the way they dealt with the judge was so stupid vis-a-vis the prophecy for him that he's never given it a chance since
But... I LOVE the rocket launcher! And it's totally sensible vis-a-vis the prophecy, very similar to how he was disabled the first time.

Unfortunately, he didn't hear the part about the army taking him apart in the first place (which was in Surprise), which clearly indicated that while he might not be killable he was disable-able, but only the prophecy of "no weapon forged of man" could kill him. On those terms, it seems like a cheat (plus the whole backstory on how Xander knew about the base wouldn't be at all clear).

Hey. New board.
Fair enough. I can see how Innocence would be a bad introductory ep. Without any backstory, the Buffy angst is so much less meaningful. And I rather think it's over-the-top myself (though I love it SO much) but I think that's partly because until he's on Angel, I just don't care about Angel.

My friend Niels cares little for Buffy, but several times he's insisted that we watch the "What does that do?" KABLOOEY! bit of Innocence. Like, 10 times in a row. It makes him laugh and laugh. I keep meaning to put it on loop and just record 10 minutes of that for him.
And then we watch the part where Angelus is all mean to Buffy, because I have the same reaction to "Love you, too. I'll call you."

I came to Buffy in season 3, and didn't really know DB could act at all, until I finally got to see season 2, and his switch from Angel to Angelus. I'm not saying he's Olivier or anything, but after coming to know Angel on season 3 of BtVS, it was a pleasant surprise.
