"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade
What Kevin Said. Also Frank about the farce.
I mean, when I stop to think, some of the bad reaction shouldn't surprise me. Like a lot of us, I tend to hang in the sex-positive, "sexuality is fluid" parts of fandom, and, for all we criticize, the Buffistae tend to be pretty positive on Buffy (and Buffy) in general(The scans_daily post, particularly, is full of people saying "This is just what I've been expecting since Joss ruined Buffy in Season Three!").
What actually surprises me is that there's coverage from even the online section of mainstream media. I mean, ABC News? The NYT? Is someone at the AP wire a fan, or did Joyce Millman bribe somebody?
In any case, I probably won't be doing an Anya, both because I missed the chance for callbacks("This is, of course, ENTIRELY PLATONIC post-coital cuddling ") and because I can't possibly improve on the bedroom farce.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
The new Spiderman animated show debuts tomorrow on the CW at 10 am (Eastern), sandwiched between new episodes of The Legion of Superheroes and The Batman.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Yay Mr. Toomes!
later: OK now I'm getting a little annoyed with how they're shoe-horning all these villains in.

I'm liking this Batman show a lot better than Spectacular Spider-Man.

Was that the last of The Batman? Because Tivo isn't seeing anymore episodes.
Spectacular Spider-Man was cute - but no more than that.
