It's simple. I slap 'em around a bit, torture 'em, make their lives hell...Sure, the nice guys'll run away,but every now and then you'll find a prince like Spike who gets off on it.

Buffy ,'Get It Done'


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.

What is even happening?

I just wanted to slap everyone who wasn't Buffy. I wanted to line them up against a wall, and let hand fly down the line. Flippa flippa flippa flippa.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I just wanted to slap everyone who wasn't Buffy. I wanted to line them up against a wall, and let hand fly down the line. Flippa flippa flippa flippa.

Which is my basic reaction to, oh, all of S7.

Well, I don't want to slap Faith, but that's about it.

Well, maybe a *little* slapping...

Because books.

I just wanted to slap everyone who wasn't Buffy.

I sort of understood their bitterness and resentment, though. She just poofed, and they didn't even know if she was alive. She was the center of their world, once she arrived -- she brought them all together, and they had a purpose they'd never had before she came. (Except for, you know, Joyce.) They were entitled to a little acting out, I think, but I'm glad they got it over with in one episode.

Yes, this. And once in a while I wanted to slap Buffy, too.

That said, JZ convinced me that a marathon of S7 might not be a bad idea.

I gave Joyce a pass for her behavior post-Buffy's return, though of course it was her ultimatum in "Becoming" that made Buffy feel she couldn't go home. But "freaked-out Mom who hasn't heard from her teenage daughter in months" trumps just about every other excuse for overreaction.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Joyce gets a pass- there is so much she didn't know, and she still wasn't sure what she knew.

Ack! I missed the Sunday rebroadcast and the "Witch" rewatch!

*Bangs head penitently*

Something I didn't notice anyone comment on, was that a cheerleader named Amber has a coach named Benson.

Oh, and about "gimme the Spielberg," yeah, it's from the "Harvest" commentary. Joss says something about how he told his director that and got exactly what he wanted.

Edited for tagginess.

Oh, yes. I actually do give Joyce a pass. I can't blame her for not trusting Buffy once she's back. It's all new to her, too. In fact, I think Buffy was a bit of a crankybabyhead with Joyce.

I sort of understood their bitterness and resentment, though. She just poofed, and they didn't even know if she was alive. She was the center of their world, once she arrived -- she brought them all together, and they had a purpose they'd never had before she came. (Except for, you know, Joyce.)

I don't know. When Buffy and Willow talk it out at the end, I want to slap Willow, even though we're at the making up part. Buffy was discovered by her mom, kicked out of her house, and had to kill her lover, and Willow's all, "I was going through some major stuff." Bitch, please.
