Holy shit, that poster was crazy! Sure, Marti Noxon's done some bad work, but she's done great work as well, especially in Buffy's early seasons. I've never really understood the Marti-bashing (but then, I really loved season six, even if not everything worked). There are some writers I largely dislike, but I can still recognize when they do good work. Like David Simkins. When Joss hired him as the showrunner for Angel I was freaking out, cuz his previous work wasn't very good (Charmed, FreakyLinks). Then he left because of "creative differences" and I was happy. And then he wrote the "God's Will" episode of The Book of Daniel, which was the most brilliant episode of that series, and I gained a newfound respect for him, even if he's still not one of my fav writers.

Thanks for the info on Pruittgate. Now I can take the crazy rantings of a nutcase on the Wonder Woman IMDB board and put in context. Not that I ever paid attention to it, but now it is nicely filed away in my brain.

"The Parable of the Knight" by Jeff Pruitt

Oh my God. Wow. That's...nuts. (The General is Tim, right? No wonder he pretends he never worked on Buffy. Murderous fiend.)

I was amused at the presence of a Sheriff in the story. winks at Cindy

The fights between Buffy and Faith were always cool and exciting and very character driven.

Did he do the fight at the end of "This Year's Girl"? Because that kicked serious ass.

I just Googled for Jeff Pruitt, and found a link going on about Pruittgate and The Bronze, with quotes from Allyson. Heh!

Nothing beats Pruittgate

I saw you bring that up over there and almost snorted milk out of my nose. Pruittgate, color wars, blinking tag? all before my time, but all still so much fun to relive.

I love what Joss did for Marti, right there. I love it like chocolate covered in chocolate, filled with chocolate, and topped with chocolate sprinkles.

For the record.

P-C, you will have mail in a few moments.

I was out running in a sling. I came back to Cindy mail. And it was good.

Hi, Cindy. I had to go check out what Joss said- yeah, I lurk- and I totally agree with you. Good for him. I stand second to no one in my disdain of the last two seasons, but good lord... Marti rocks. or just what Joss said about her. Plus, the hotness and pleasant singing voice.

Allyson- I'm really looking forward to the book. I remember you putting together a gift pack for Marti when she had a baby. And as I recall, Jeff was online for days, like all weekend. But he and Sophia made the fights rock.

God, I'm posting at the Bronze, posting here, I have no idea what's going on.

But waiting on TV's hit Drive! More Tim, please. Oh, yeah, that's why I still lurk in this thread...

Um, dang.

little bam bam! How the heck are you?

oh bam! I wished I had your email addie for the longest time.
