I'd be more reluctant to lose Season 5 than 3 and 4, to tell the truth. "You're Welcome" and "Smile Time" are basically the 2-years later payback for sitting through "Provider" and "Tomorrow" without chucking my TV out the window Jaye Tyler-style.
Do you know what else has blood in it? Blood.

Will there be celebration? There should be celebration. Here - tosses confetti.
You're so sweet! Yes, there should be celebration. But it all happened a bit sooner than expected so I didn't really have a chance to plan a celebration. Maybe this weekend.
I love Kristen.
I love you, too. Also, did I hear correctly that you're recapping Herb Saunders, FBI Agent? Should I send flowers?
And last five minutes of Home don't really bug me. Because it's, like, Connor never existed. He never had sex with Possessed Demon Saint Cordelia. He never danced with Disco Satan. Angel never went goo-goo-ga-ga to an infant. (Damn you, David Goodman!) It's all good.
The only way it could've been better is if Angel had come out of the shower at the end, wearing nothing but a (sweeps) towel, and told me it had all been a dream.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Oh yes, indeed. It's October 7th. Let the Dance of Freedom, Joy & Happiness commence.Whoooooot! I am pretty sure that my dad's gonna be mad I forgot his birthday but excellent news that your Oct. 7 came early.
had sex with Possessed Demon Saint CordeliaWhy? Why did you have to mention this???? Ewwwww
Home would have been a good ending... There were hits and misses after but Home just worked for me. Especially if you skip that last scene, but I also get why it mattered.

Whaddaya mean? She just wanted to make his first apocalypse special.

Life is eternal, Love is immortal, and death is only an illusion.
I like the naked dream part.
I would also give up 3 for 5..
I can't give up any of the Faith arch in 4 because it had some of the best Wes, Gunn and Conner scenes with Faith. Not to mention watching DB and ED work off each other again. And then there is Orpheus.

Hey! That's my birthday, too. I've never known another 10/7 person. And I still don't, technically, I guess. Still... one step closer.

I like you better. Not that she isn't perfectly lovely in her perfectly Orange County ways... She is, of course perfect.
(And, bonus round, I'll likely remember your birthday now too.)

Aw, I still like "Tomorrow." Evil Connor entertains me so much.
Also, did I hear correctly that you're recapping Herb Saunders, FBI Agent?
Mmmmyessssithink? That's why I asked if I could quote you before. I'm subtle!
JenP - Aug 31, 2005 8:07:31 pm PDT #3529 of 10001
I like you better.
Yay! (I have no shame)
((And I'm sure she is... but, still, I win!))

Okay, who stole my RS:INXS thread? Just put it back where you found it and no one has to get hurt.
Mmmmyessssithink?
I can't wait to read it. I have so many issues I wouldn't know where to begin writing them down myself.
When Hallmark just won't do?
When you care enough to give the very best.
