Dan has never watched AtS in order, and missed a couple of seasons entirely so he's running through those as fast as through SPN. So I am catching some of them too.
And speaking of Awkward Comic relief, Dancng Angel! How could I have forgotten!
It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Aaah! I'm loving Mark's big-hearted love for both shows, but so many of the comments (not any of the ones by Buffistas) are making me want to spork my eyes out. I know I'm being completely irrational in getting so annoyed by such a trivial thing, but:
STOP CALLING IT BANGEL. That ship predates portmanteaux, dammit. All right-thinking and linguistically historically accurate people everywhere know that it's B/A.

I don't know, I would have thought the sight would sear itself into the memory of any viewer, like reading The King in Yellow.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Mark has his review of hush up early. He decided to post his comments as a "live" blog-style.
Beware the capslock...
Plus this?
I have feelings about Tara and Willow and I don’t know what to do about them. Is this real? Like please don’t let this be taken away from me because that was the most gay queer gay scene ever and I need it. Right now.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Mark has his review of hush up early.
Every week has a couple two-post days on which the first post goes up at 5 PST and the second goes up at the regular time.
He didn't know anything about "Hush," so this bit was particularly great:
I am dearly hoping this isn’t an episode where no one says anything interesting, because that would suck so much.
And then...
OH MY GOD WHY DID I SAY THAT I WAS WORRIED NO ONE WOULD SAY ANYTHING INTERESTING. WHAT THE FUCK. I REGRET ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING I’VE DONE EVER.
Also, he predicted Tara would die THREE TIMES. He's already attached! Oh, this will be sad.

Heh, I think Mark and everyone else is definitely way more into Angel now, which makes me happy! Wesley's appearance has been greeted with much joy, as has Cordelia's vision thing. I did decide to punch everyone in the gut, though, by responding to this line in Mark's review:
I'm hoping that Wesley can find his place among his old friends, though I don’t know quite what that might be yet.
