'Touched'
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.
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.
Bangel would have me tearing my hair out.
And speaking of Awkward Comic relief, Dancng Angel! How could I have forgotten!
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.
Eat a muffin, whitel!
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.

Maybe my brain was trying to protect itself?
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.
"I had my throat cut and all my friends abandoned me."
And then he burned his hand on a TV dinner.
tee hee.
P-C you are a mean, mean man. But that is brilliant. I suppose posted in the spoiler text I can't read (and don't care to because, well, I never try to read the comments anywhere).
