I thought "Waiting in the Wings" was about the highpoint of that ship.
yeah...no. that was the time i wanted to scratch my own eyeballs out. it was more wrong than when they tried to make Cordy/Wesley happen.
I thought Cordy/Xander worked.
this is who she should have ended up with. or Doyle. if he hadn't sacrificed himself.
Okay, apparently there are a lot of people who didn't now Numfar was Joss Whedon. Heh.
(Turns out Mark didn't know after all, too!)
Numfar, do the dance of unpreparednesss!
More Mark: It occurred to me, while talking about these episodes with my wife, that the last line of the "Angel" finale -- "There's no place like ... Willow?" -- is the best knife twist in the history of television. Just that shot of Allyson Hannigan, silent and devastated, brought all the pain of the Buffy finale we had just begun to get over back again.
(The last line is actually "It's Buffy." But yes. There was much cursing of Joss Whedon for exactly that reason.)
Mark's viewing of The Gift is up. It's pretty much what you'd expect.
I am evil. I've begun looking forward to Mark's pain.
I just have to bring this bit over from enigmaticagentscully's review because it is wonderful and will be appreciated:
The SHRIEK that came out of my mouth when Xander proposed to Anya was nothing even close to human. It was like...imagine a Ringwraith. Then imagine someone has fed that Ringwraith a ton of energy drinks so it’s really hyped up on sugar. Then imagine it’s sucked up a bunch of helium from a balloon so it’s voice is really high pitched. Then imagine someone told that Ringwraith that it’s favourite show Firefly has been renewed for a second season.
That is the sound I made.
the "wedding" episode is going to hurt.
