Willow, check you out! Witch-Fu!

Buffy ,'Lessons'


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.

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

Eat a muffin, whitel!

All is well that ends in pizza.

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.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

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.

Maybe my brain was trying to protect itself?

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.

And then he burned his hand on a TV dinner.

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).

Because books.

I keep catching occasional episodes on some cable channel (Chiller, I think? and sometimes Logo), and it always hits me all over again how much I love this show. I think it might be time to do a dedicated straight-through rewatch.

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

I wish I hadn't been watching Angel DVDs with someone who fucked me over emotionally, because it makes it unwarrantedly hard for me to even open the DVD case now.

Because books.

Oh, I have movies like that. Emotional associations suck when they ... suck.

I could stand to rewatch Angel, too, but not until I get through the first three seasons of Buffy. Not that I have any idea when I'm going to do this, since I don't think S. will be interested.
