Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

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.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Recappy goodness!!!! Yay!

I sat down and watched Once More With Feeling this morning on F/X. You know that feeling you get when it's been a really long time since you've seen or talked about Buffy? And then you see a really good episode and it reaches right into your gut and you remember what's so great about it?

Yeah, it's kind of like that. *sniff*

What is even happening?

{{{Cashmere}}}

Scott had to work late (from home) last night, and I was going to put on my season 6 DVD and watch OMWF, but I was on the couch when the idea hit, and the DVD player and DVDs were so very far away. Now I wish I had.

What's cut from the FX version? I remember hating the cuts on the UPN re-run version of OMWF. It must have killed Joss to make them.

They cut the best part of Rest in Peace (Spike on his knees *swoon*). There were other bits.

But they left the MUSTARD IN!!!

I just forget sometimes how great the songs are. Under My Spell made me tear up.

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

Cut from the original:

  • I have a theory song - the verse(s) after Anya's bunny rock-n-roll interlude.
  • Dawn telling the group at the magic box that she gave birth to a baby teradactyl & Anya asking "Did it sing?"
  • A verse from Spike's Song - the second verse
  • After Spike saves Buffy from self-combusting Dawn says "The hardest thing in this world is to live in it."

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Didn't they also cut Dawn's dance with the masked kidnappers in the Magic Box?

Trust my rage

Don't they also cut the "getting ready in the morning" parts from the intro (before Buffy flashes back to the previous night)

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Unfortunately, they left IN the Xander asspull, but I guess they couldn't have cut that out without reshoots.

Yup. Forgot about that.

Art Crawl!!!

I was happy to see the last ten minutes of OMWF this morning.

I'm glad I waited so long to watch it again. It really is like watching it for the first time. That same excitement. Makes me all fangurlie again.
