Man. Remind me to keep Ida Moon away from the cute pile of puppies.
The Minearverse 4: Support Group for Clumsy People
[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.
"Now, pile of cute puppies, we will meet the real you...."
But in this case it's canon that somebody said "the line goes through Faith" or whatever. It's not canon that what they said was true.
Right. And I think it was Cordelia who said it.
Joss also said Spike has a sole (not a misspelling nor a typo). Joss said Amber would be back. Joss said what he said about the line running through Faith, in response to questions (at least some of the time) if they were gonig to add a new slayer character after Buffy's death in The Gift.
I’m putting you on an infinite NEENER loop. You are hereby NEENERed to infinity.
See if I stick up for your 99% reliability, again. I won't, because...oh wait, before I continue, do you still have access to the file o' Jossy lying goodness?
Joss said Amber would be back.
I thought Joss wanted Amber back and it just didn't work out. I know he talked about the episode he had planned for Tara's return at Wizard World Chicago last year.
and it just didn't work out.
It didn't work out because Amber said, "No." She thought she'd be betraying the fans by having Tara come back as only a front for the First Evil.
I don't see where you're going with citing the sole thing, or Joss's casting intentions. What do they have to do with him giving more detail on the show bible?
It will be revealed that Ida Moon did not actually rip the pony's face off. No, the pony ripped off its own face because its attempts to understand Ida drove it to madness.
It just didn't realize that all Ida's rage came from the fact that no one could pronounce her name correctly.
I don't see where you're going with citing the sole thing, or Joss's casting intentions. What do they have to do with him giving more detail on the show bible?I don't think there is a show bible. Joss says what he means at the time, but he also doesn't lock himself in. He's actually mentioned not giving too much back story in the shows, so that he's not written into a corner.
He's not above rewriting backstory if it doesn't suit his goal at the moment.
I don't think there is a show bible.
Okay, canon. Not show bible. Joss explaining what was canon at the moment. What does that have to do with his casting intentions? And I have no idea what the sole thing is supposed to mean. They seem to be three concepts, related mostly by the word Joss.
