Buffy ,'The Killer In Me'
Discussion of episodes currently airing in Un-American locations (anything that's aired in Australia is fair game), as well as anything else the Un-Americans feel like talking about or we feel like asking them. Please use the show discussion threads for any current-season discussion.

Nou, I know exactly what you mean about the collective opinion and the freshness. It's part of the reason I've decided to stay completely unspoiled for the past year-and-a-bit. If it's one thing to partake if you're an American, imagine if you haven't even seen the episodes yet.
I love going back after I've seen an ep and reading the live posts, though.
I kind of agree with Noumenon about the groupthink. I mean, I've come across people, real hardcore Buffy fans, who seriously think that everything about Glory was utterly fabulous. I don't think I would have even let myself entertain that idea!
Angus, the "utterly fabulous" line as applied to Glory only makes me think about how wonderful the character would have been if Patsy or Edina from AbFab had the role.
Actually, Anne, I first wrote "absolutely fabulous" and changed it for that very reason...
I don't have a problem going against the groupthink. But I do understand getting Buffy-fatigue from discussing the show instantly after it airs. In that way, I'm glad that I have a 24 hour advance viewing, as my brain is fairly slow to process things. Of course, when the majority are in the "Best. Episode. Ever!" mode, I'm already in "Actually, now that I think about it...." mode.
I also have no compunction about skipping the show threads if I am not in the mood. And I love watching "live". It's a giddy thrill.

Oh god, is it too late for Joanna Lumley to be a Buffy villain? That's just a brilliant idea.
Yes, absolutely fabulous.
Fiona and other Un-A s who were asking about Firefly:
The second episode, Tim written and directed, rocked like a rocking thing. Giddy anticipation is again the proper mood.
Buffy's back (reruns that is). on 7 Australia. Who with their usual custom are giving it no publicity.
Anyway Tuesday 10:30pm with Gingerbread which unbelievable as it is, is where they left off way back last year.
Oh god, is it too late for Joanna Lumley to be a Buffy villain? That's just a brilliant idea.
Especially since Buffy has never had a chronically drunk and funny villian chasing after men half her age...
Wait, that's her *character* never mind.
Hmmm... OTOH Jennifer Saunders can look quite spiffy outside of ABFAB.
