Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

'Underneath'


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.

Whoops! This is what happens when I get busy at work and start skimming too fast.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

And this made me laugh: "Play the cover of 'Wild Horses' by The Sundays. See how fast you can get a Buffy fan to cry."

I wasn't aware of the name or artist but from the context knew right away which song it was. Now I am listening and even though I thought I wouldn't, getting a little choked up. In a moment I will start singing along.

Oh honey, the mentally unwell people have been in the fanbase since Game Changers was Stucky fanfiction on the internet. The calls have been coming from inside the house the whole time!

"The Prom" left me unmoved so that song has never had any real import to me.

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

"Never Kill a Boy on a First Datte" and "When She was Bad" (along with The Pack and Anne as others mentioned) are way lower than I would have put them.

Yeah, both of those are among my favorites, as is "Reptile Boy." Meanwhile, someone liked "Doublemeat Palace" well enough to rank it in the middle of the pack rather than close to the bottom?!?

In general my impression is that the author seems not to like early episodes other than those dealing with the Buffy/Angel romance.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Does anyone want S2 and/or S3 of Buffy on DVD? I just arrived for my volunteer night at the library bookstore and there are copies on the shelf. I'll be here for 3 hours.

If no one else speaks up, I have a friend who came to Buffy late (and was watching with an ex, so doesn't have her own copies) and would be very interested in them. What's the pricing like?

They're $5 each.
