Ha, someone found a
Washington Post
article about the delay in airing:
WB execs were concerned about the climactic scene of the season- wrapper. In it, the mayor is giving the commencement speech at Sunnydale High during a solar eclipse, which causes him to morph into a 60-foot serpent and attack the students. Buffy and her classmates defend themselves with Goth-type weapons.
As the commenter said, "Damn goths and their flame throwers."
It's hard for new watchers to comprehend the social relevancy when they don't have the "bootleg the puppy" experience of tape trees making up for network delay of Earshot and GDII, and the "reasons" for the delays.
As the commenter said, "Damn goths and their flame throwers."
WHY HAS NO ONE GIVEN ME A FLAME THROWER YET?
WHY HAS NO ONE GIVEN ME A FLAME THROWER YET?
Because you have Clovis, silly.
WHY HAS NO ONE GIVEN ME A FLAME THROWER YET?
Because they have gluten?
WHY HAS NO ONE GIVEN ME A FLAME THROWER YET?
IF I HAD A FLAMETHROWER I'D KEEP IT. Sorry.
How about a flamecatcher?
Because you have Clovis, silly.
As in he's a reason WHY I shouldn't have a flame thrower? Or because I have him instead of a flame thrower? If it's the latter, okay. If it's the former, Clovis would like everyone to know that he will make sure I use the flame thrower in a calm and responsible manner.
Oh, dear, I just snorted in disbelief.
