However, I am now curious about anybody else's combo pack of Watched/Read.
Battlestar Galactica S1 and Casanova.
With Faction Paradox as an alternate in case of emergency.
There's lots of other stuff I love, but those 3 loved me back.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.
Mal ,'Serenity'
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.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Strega! I just finished reading This Town Will Never Let Us Go. That was a fantastic read. I felt the end let it down a little, and possibly showed up the limits of its style of continental philosophising, but nonetheless I loved its rather deft readiness to weave those thoghts into it. Reminded me of some Kundera.

Because books.
My sweet spot would probably be Supernatural/the Harry Potter books.

billytea - Oh hooray! I think I love that one the most. (Although I still have a couple in my in-progress pile, to be fair.) And the narrative style is a big part of that. I can't find it at the moment but there was a nice interview with Miles talking about his desire to be more experimental.
The ending did seem unsatisfying on first read. Although I had almost no context going in... so it became much more sad after I'd read The Book of the War.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Which season and which book?

Oh, no. That's a cheat. Pick!

Oh no, what le nubian said. ALL OF THEM.
Although if you're going to be really mean and make me choose, probably S2/Prisoner of Azkaban. ::sobs::

I like it when authors take risks like that, and I think it mostly paid off here. It certainly made reading the book fun.
