I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

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.

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

Normal Again is the one you're thinking of, I think.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Again, he needs to be careful what he wishes for

Well, the very next one is the creepy Monkey's Paw resurrected!Joyce one (I mean, an argument can be made that it *isn't* Joyce, but really, it is.) I hope that doesn't fuck Mark up too much.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

That fucked me up.

I was praying to Joss that we wouldn't SEE Joyce. I'm dead serious. The last third I watched through my fingers.

Yes! Thank you. It was on the tip of my brain but I couldn't quite get it.

Always Anti-fascist!

Ironically, "Normal Again" was the first ep I watched out of syndication...man was I confused!

I never think about Kate.

Heh. I rewatched season 1 a few weeks ago via Netflix. At some point I realized that almost every regular/recurring character we see in S1 is doomed. I think Kate and Faith are the only ones who get out alive. So, hey, good on them.

I took that as further evidence that Angel probably had the right idea back in Amends.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

And "Epiphany" is Kate's last episode! I wonder how long it will take for Mark to stop waiting for her to come back.

There was some controversy in the comments about who wrote the "If nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do" conversation, but someone linked to a podcast where Tim confirmed it was all him. Which was good because I think we talked about the line in Minearverse once, and he didn't say it was a Joss line then!

brillig

When is the Angel episode where Angel saves Kate and she tells him she didn't invite him in?

edit: OK, so we've had it already. I thought that bit would make more of an impression on Mark.

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

Anyone else remember cousinjean and her circle on MBTV?

I am slowly becoming convinced that Mark Watches allows just enough time between episode posts that we'll wind up watching a complete reprise of the Spike Wars, at 78RPM, in the comments.
