Simon: Captain... why did you come back for us? Mal: You're on my crew. Simon: Yeah, but you don't even like me. Why'd you come back? Mal: You're on my crew. Why we still talking about this?

'Safe'


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.

Always Anti-fascist!

Either that or he's...slow. Because I think he'd start to guess they aren't riding off into the sunset or anything. Just like Wallace from the Wire isn't saved because he's super-secret Nigerian royalty(Even though I wished really hard,since it was compared to Dickens...)

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

He does this to himself on purpose, doesn't he?

I think it must be for dramatic effect for his audience.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I am looking forward to a shrieked Giles.

Oh yes. I'm fully expecting "I'd like to test that theory." to get an unbelievable scream of joy.

And monstrously grateful sobbings to the crayon speech.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I did it. I was unspoiled for S6 (I don't remember why I decided to be unspoiled, since I was super-spoiled for the other seasons), and I just yelled "GILES!!!!!" at the top of my lungs.

Damn fine entrance.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

I just yelled "GILES!!!!!" at the top of my lungs.

yep, me too. (us, actually, I think that I was watching with people)

Damn fine entrance.

Top 5. Not just Buffy, but ever.

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

I don't remember whether I yelled or what I yelled, but I can vividly recall watching that moment for the first time in my dorm room.

Not sure anything beats Senor Chang in "Modern Warfare." EVER.

That was a great entrance, yes.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I don't remember whether I yelled or what I yelled, but I can vividly recall watching that moment for the first time in my dorm room.

I remember watching it on my friend Chip's massive plasma TV when I visited him after the Chicago F2F. He had never seen Buffy before but gamely watched it with me, and I had to explain why I just yelled, "Giles!"

It's fun reading that thread because it's about 14 people in a row posing, "GILES!!1!"

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I watched that episode with the Boston-area Buffistas -- the first time I'd met most of them -- and we ALL yelled "GILES!!!!!!" Still one of my favorite experiences of communal fannish glee.
