Is this his main source of income? Is he living the dream? Does he get to watch and read genre stuff and then pontificate about it, and make decent money?

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
It's not his main source of income yet, but it seems that he's doing pretty well. He recently opened up a store to sell merchandise and ebooks. Perhaps one day he can live the dream!

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
Ok, I have to start reading this stuff. What is the link?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
quester, here you go.
I'm one of those picky heathens who devours pretty much all of Mark's watchings and readings but barely lurks in the comment threads because of all the policing and the tsuris and the glayvin and all the rest of it. But his posts alone are so well worth it. His Harry Potter readings, particularly, have been so thoughtful, truthful and deeply felt that they've changed the way I read the entire series: about the highest praise of a critical evaluation I've got to offer. But his Buffy love and astonishment are, so far, pretty delightful themselves.
I mean, he's no Nilly, but I'd love to lock Mark and Nilly in a room together with a handful of key episodes and make podcasts of the conversation.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I also liked his astonishment and love of Firefly.

Watching Graduation Day Part 2, wrappingup my season 3 rewatch. Seriously though, Mayor Wilkins- best villain on Buffy or best villain EVER!!?!?!? I love him.

He's also reading Lord of the Rings for the first time, and I'm rather adoring watching him fall in love with Tolkien. He is so not prepared.

Nope, Angel and Drusilla outdo him in my book. Maybe the Master too.

For fun -- most underused villain? My vote is for Mr. Trick. He could have been really fun. "It's called an Uzi, chump!"
