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.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

They didn't mention when the DVD would be out.

However, they did (in the last 5 minutes of the panel when I finally got in) say that the soundtrack would be available for download in a few weeks.

Also, Hi, I'm finally caught up, yay!

I don't know if this was posted or not but Hulu is running DHSAB for 4 months, including a full episode version here:

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Completely random:

A Brit blogger whom I occasionally read, whose usual topics are ethics, theology, the problem of Susan in the Chronicles of Narnia, exactly how barking mad David Sim is this week, and gobs and gobs of Doctor Who, has just gotten the ginormous Buffy DVD set. He's currently working his way through S5; when I checked his blog just now, he'd replaced his usual Tuesday Doctor Who post with his thoughts on "The Body" and "Forever." Which I may have to run home and watch at lunch now.

I just watched those yesterday! Now I have to run over and read the post

The answer to the question "Can we have an episode of Buffy in which nothing happens?" turns out to be "No"

He's going to be so surprised when he sees The Weight of the World.

Art Crawl!!!

Surprised?

Or disappointed?

JZ, thank you for linking to that blog, really excellent reading and makes me want to break out my season 5 dvds.

I had to go Googling to remind myself of "The Weight of the World," which doesn't speak well for how memorable it was. Still, a lot of stuff happened; it's just that they had almost no episodes left in the season, so the whole thing was crammed with Things We Forgot We Really Need Before We Head Into The Finale, and it was about as unexciting as any massive infodump usually is.

Except for that moment when Doc's eyes popped open again. I distinctly remember screaming like a thing that screams when that happened.

I dunno, it's certainly been years but I remember there's a lot of "Willow watches Buffy do the same thing over and over in catatonic-ville," which seems more like padding than crammed. At the start of the episode Dawn's been captured and they need to stop Glory. At the end of the episode, Dawn's been captured and they need to stop Glory.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I remember there's a lot of "Willow watches Buffy do the same thing over and over in catatonic-ville,"

I think that's all I remember from that episode....
