If my book ever gets published, I wonder if I'll be defined as the World's Foremost Authority on Wasting Time on the Internet Talking About Buffy.
Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.
'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.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

What is even happening?

Of course, I only know Rhonda, because *I* am actually the world's authority on BtVS.
Now you know you're just going to make us check Rhonda's cites to see if you're listed.To be clear, I meant to say I only know *of* Rhonda. I wouldn't know Rhonda herself, if I tripped over her.

If Joss himself and the people who actually worked with him on the show are excepted, wouldn't Nancy Holder be the next logical claimant for that title?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
In my experience, writers and actors and designers and suchlike are not experts on their own work, because they work hard making it but then it's over. Most of them don't rewatch shows they've worked on because they already gave what they could to it so there's no need going back, or they only see the flaws. They don't rewatch and they certainly don't study--too busy working on the next project.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
I think Robin just had the last, irrefutable word.
This may be a Buffistas first.

But no refutations.
She won. She's scrappy.

So what you're saying is that last post != last word. I'm hip.

Who? moi??
I just finished watching Waiting in the Wings. Joss was commenting on it and points out a place where he set up a beautiful shot of David's reflection. The crew had to remind him.
He also told us that he wrote the episode because Amy Acker was a dancer. He had to cut the sequence of her (and Alexis's) dance sequence, but it is shown on the DVD. Hilarious.
You all knew this, but I had forgotten that Summer Glau was the ballerina.
