Allyson, I spent some time this morning searching both SEC filings and news sources for the revenue info. Unfortunately, while Fox Entertainment Group (a subsidiary of Newsgroup) does mention in the notes to their financial statements that one of the shows they get licensing and merchandising rev from (as well as DVD and syndication revenue), they don't get very specific in listing the sources of revenue. In fact, they don't even separate out mechandising from other sources of revenue.

I did however learn that in 1999, the L&M group put out a line of prom dresses based on the dress Buffy wore in the homecoming episode.

Wow. That is cool. I kind of want one now.

Before or after drowning?

That's what I was wondering, Betsy.

She didn't drown at homecoming, that was the Spring Fling, or something, homecoming was when she and Cordelia were in Slayerfest.

I thought it was Slayerfest 2000, though, and this was definitely 1999.

Maybe the L&M info meant "Spring Fling" and said "Homecoming."

ETA: Slayerfest '98. By 2000, Buffy was in spring of her freshman year of college. I know cuz we're the same age.

And it's this dress: [link]

Though I'd rather have Cordy's: [link]

My prom dress was green.

Oops.

I had to look it up to find out what year it *was.* I just knew it wasn't 2000.

So howsabout that Tim Minear, huh?

I now have "Green Dress" by Jonathan Larson (from Tick, Tick, BOOM!) stuck in my head. Thanks Kiba.

Tim is awesome. I crave Inside DVDs. CRAVE them. For petting and hugging and watching and getting disturbed at in such glorious glory.
