I thought it was very sweet. It's the only episode I've bothered to save on the TiVo.
This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

[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.

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

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Yeah, there were other people who liked it too. Me, I just couldn't past the ludicrousness of seeing the "EIGHT YEARS LATER" card. Although I do like what they did with that in the last episode, where Alana had trouble keeping her realities straight.

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.
I was hooked during season one, but this season fell short of my expectations. The tension does seem to be building up to a fairly decent finale though.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
the episode with the [spoiler omitted] was great, I thought, and had excellent emotional through lines.
That was a really great ep.

Life is eternal, Love is immortal, and death is only an illusion.
Anyone here caught the new Battlestar? It is really good.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Lotsa people have. Discussion happens in the Boxed Set thread.

I debated whether to post this here or in music, but with the soap connection and the cheesiness, I decided on here:

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs
He was head of Research, wasn't he? The whole crew were VP or above level W&H employees. Only one I can see getting out of it would be Fred, what with her soul getting destroyed and all. As for Wesley's likelyhood of signing away his soul, the Wes who signed up probably thought he was going to Hell anyway what with the Connor betrayal thing. Fred, Gunn, and Lorne don't strike me as the sorts to check the fine print, and Angel didn't seem like he really cared much at that point. End of Season 4 Angel Investigations was kind of a bleak crew.
They had kind of a special deal, though. I don't imagine that they signed standard contracts, and I am pretty sure that none of them would have signed contracts that included their souls, at least not without a lot more angst first, or a funny line.
