Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

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.

Isn't it basically 75 years after the author's death?

The public domain laws have been tweaked in recent years, driven in part by Disney paying a lot of money to keep Mickey Mouse out of the public domain.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

So, I was reading this for some reason: [link]

The only highlights are James M being missing several teeth due to people kicking him in the face whilst shooting Dragonball Zeeeee (that shoot is going well, then) and the girl who flew from Ireland to the US to see him play a guitar.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Best Episodes of Buffy?:

The Body, Hush, OMWF

This is a recommendation for a co-worker. Any thoughts?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I wouldn't start with The Body if they're unfamiliar with the show.

OMWF is the one that sucked me in.

They are familiar with it in that they know what it is about and have seen the movie. I was trying to explain how the tone of the series is completely different.

I might start with season 3

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I think "Prophecy Girl" would be good. Once you get into the second season, the mythology starts to build and it's harder to just jump in. I watched it from the first episode, though, so what do I know.

I am not expecting to "convert" this person and get them to watch all of it. Just give them a taste so that they know what the fuss is all about.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

The Body is really good television , but not anything that will convince anyone unless they are an analytical television watcher. The power comes partly fro knowing the characters and partly from knowing the usual way tv is deals with death.

Prophecy girl is good and Hush and OMWF but I might also pick something like BB and B or the Zeppo or something like that where Buffy is far from the focus of the episode
