Oh, yeah. I pop in during the commercials on Nip/Tuck. It's fun watching all the color commentary. People talk about all kinds of stuff I never noticed and now I can pay special attention when I do go to watch the episode.
I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Missed the W&P due to an actual social engagement. But I love reading the conversations those times when I am not an active participate in real time.

I'm excited. One of my friends and I have been talking about making some time to spend together. She has a husband and a son health issues, so the usual drink or dinner out is hard for her. We made some time last night, I brought pizza over and we hung out. Then she said "you know, i've never seen buffy. what say you bring the DVDs over and we watch them?" SO EXCITED. A new buffista.

Toaster!
And a great way to spend buddy time together.
I did that with a friend when ROME was on HBO. Gotta say those where some excellent Sunday evenings. All 12 of them.
Congrats on the Fanufacture.

Totally. I've had a few friends I've done that with (also, general "get together and watch a bizarre movie or two" nights). It used to be a weekly or near weekly thing. Unfortunately, everyone I used to do that with is scattered.

My poor mom got the worst intro for a newbie ever because we started watching in real-time with "Normal Again". She actually turned to me and said "Ok, what the hell was that?" But FX started evening Buffy and a fan was born.

Hey. New board.
I quite like "Normal Again." I was probably the only one pushing for the finale to end with her waking up in the mental hospital again.
The outcry would have been awesome.
(P.S. I wouldn't actually have liked that.)

What is even happening?
Gris, if they were going to have a there-is-no-victory sort of post-modern ending, it would have had to be a shot of Spike dancing with Dru on Buffy's grave.
(and I wouldn't like that ^ either)

I'm so jealous of your friend, Vortex. She gets it all brand new and shiny and fresh, with you as her sherpa--a sherpa who cries at all the right moments.
eta...
I sure hope 'sherpa' is the word I'm thinking of.
