'Objects In Space'


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.

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

Angel imagining himself dancing is what made me fall in love with David Boreanaz. So cheerfully, cheerfully dorky.

The first time that scene aired, I laughed so hard I fell off the couch. Probably because it built up - there was a definite lag between processing what I was seeing initially and reacting to it.

“Not dead yet!”

As I recall, it was the rapid-fire hand clapping that utterly sold me.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I agree.

I'm like a fucking toddler amused by the same damn thing. That clapping gets me every.single.time.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I remember Plei saying that she started watching Angel in the middle(ish) of S2, and that she seriously thought that Wes and Gunn were in a relationship.

We watched "Thin Dead Line" the other night, and DAMN if that isn't true. Gunn's reactions to gut-shot!Wes are 100% L-U-V.

Even The Boy agreed, and he's more disinclined to see slash where there is no canonical basis.

Heh-- they were, weren't they? However, I will forever maintain that the majority of S2 they were building up to a one hundred percent grown-up relationship between Cordy and Wes that all of a sudden took a left turn to Pylea.

I don't see it yet, but we have a while to go before Pylea.

(Oh, and "Happy Anniversary"? Still. Just. As. Lame. Joss did a much better job with Dr. Horrible's freeze ray [not a death ray or an ice beam; that's all Johnny Snow].)

No, I started watching Angel the day it aired. I did, however, seriously believe (pre-fanfic days) that Wes and Gunn were in a relationship in S2. Like, they introduced Fred, and I was wicked confused, because weren't those guys both gay?

Ahem.

(Later, I'm watching that one where Fred decides to stay, and they're painting her room, and I'm kind of seeing where they're working in the eventual triangle, and then Wes and Gunn start arguing about painting techniques or something and they are SO TOTALLY MARRIED, and I throw up my hands and give up trying to believe in their heterosexuality again.)

I *did* think on rewatch that they were building to Cordy/Gunn at one point. Which would have rocked. For what it is worth.

See, I would have sworn you started mid-S2, because that was my only explanation for you assuming they were in a relationship (as in, maybe you thought you just missed the episode where they first got together or something).

But no, you just have the glorious gift of seeing the slash wherever it may lurk. In plain sight.

Wow, that possibly could have spared us pain from so many directions.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Yes, it would have. I like the Fred/Gunn, but would have happily given it up to not have the Saint!Cordy/Angel. While I admit that I was a B/A shipper (who am I kidding with the "was"), that shit just didn't work.
