Buffistas

Take me, sir. Take me hard.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I imagine she gets very little sleep, but that it works for her, that if she gets too much she starts to feel like her brain is foggy. In my mind, when Rebecca leaves the office, she just goes home and waits to go back to the office.

Well, she never went home in between her first two days at the office, right?

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Drive-by, since I'm 2 episodes behind and may never catch up. But SMRT-tv has a column on The Inside this week, as well.

Melody is the flip side of Harmony

I feel like people are reading in-jokes into the show that never even occurred to me.

Me, too. Also, the implication that the shout-outs are a nose-thumbing to Fox execs. is odd. I always take them as a wink to fans or to friends of the showfolk, neither of which bother me. For, I am a fan. And I (rarely) catch the friend kind, de-gloved Allysons excepted, so they couldn't bug. Interesting take.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

THEY DIDNT EVEN MENTION ME

Also, today a browncoat asked who this Allyson person is and if I'm legit.

I'm 2 legit to quit, baybee.

"I so wanna storm out on you right now, but if I stand up, I'll fall." --Jaye

I don't get how the in-jokes are stabs at the network.

Angel was on the WB. FOX had nothing to do with its cancellation. Besides, naming a cat "Angel" and putting "Wolfram" on a uniform are really weak digs if that's the point of the in-jokes (which I highly doubt).

And Buffy ENDED on UPN.

I can respect her opinion on the show, but her whole ending paragraph wasn't really well thought out. Plus, these little fleeting moments don't take me out of the world, or affect the story quality.

No, they're love notes to the hardcore fans.

Yeah, the show analysis seems perfectly reasonable. I should've said that, too. The last part just made me go, "Whuh?" so I got distracted.

Which I am. And proudly. :-D [re: hardcore fan]

Next, Tim should have Rebecca's car be a blue Studebaker. Like Jaye's.

Except I might think it'll break a tail light on its own because of a wax lion on the dashboard that Rebecca got at the zoo who talks to her and helps her with her profiles, and be completely removed from that week's plot. Oops. Better not then.

K, I'm done. Can you tell I'm annoyed?
