'Bring On The Night'


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.

“Not dead yet!”

I really can't believe that. I like Nick, but he doesn't have the chops or the, I think presence is the word I want, to carry the role of Mal.

Especially given the "now" picture they used-- he bore an eerie resemblance to Jack Nicholson's Joker, sans makeup. Which really... not such a compliment.

Bwah! That is what DW and I have always said about him, though he seems to really be morphing into him as he gets older.

What is even happening?

Uh, since when did Whedon want Brendan in the role of Mal Reynolds? I hadn't any idea!

That seems like fanon, to me. Buffy was still on the air when Firefly premiered, and Xander had already become a nearly secondary (tertiary) character. Maybe Joss said he wanted Mal to be a Xander-type who was damaged by the war, or something.

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

I wouldn't count on that article for facts since it says Fillion went from Buffy to Firefly. Wasn't he in Firefly first?

Yes. And they referred to the Initiative as the Syndicate. Hmph. Know nothings.

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

Okay, so "the Guild" - Season 2 just started and it is on MSN instead of youtube.

I must confess that while I find the show funny, her relationship to super-stalker who has moved in really creeps me out. Does anyone feel the same way?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I got sucked into some fanfic with Mal/Jayne with Mal as a closet drag queen, and...

Hmm. I got nothing to finish that statement. BUT I COULDN'T STOP READING.

And laughing. And then I read some more. There was lots. I couldn't stop.

But NB as Mal? Doesn't work for me. Yeah. That's my sequitor.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Oh yes, very.

I hadn't heard of the show before now, but watched the first few and had to quit. Too creepy, not enough funny.

I haven't started season 2 of The Guild yet but I'm surprised she's still putting up with the stalker. I hope it makes sense in context.
