{Angus}, I watched it tonight, and was crying in the end too.. even my brother's eyes were tearing up. Seems I cry more about sad things in movies and tv when I'm generally feeling happy in real life. When real life is sad, tv just doesn't seem that important anymore.

I like conflicted Spike. I think the whole rape scene last season was a mistake, but at least his crisis of confidence now gives it a counterpoint.

Hi Plasmo...glad to know I'm not the only crybaby.

Angel tonight had one major problem for me: not enough Connor! Also, I thought the writing wasn't nearly as sharp as last week's. I did quite like Gwen though. X-Men much?

Angus, in the NAFDA thread, we ended up dubbing her Electrocutie! And yes, she's mere smith's character, so we're pretty sure it's an X-Men reference.

I jsut can't deal with Connor's hair. When I was stranded at the bus station last Friday, there were several college-aged guys also waiting who had the same floppy hair. I wanted to go up to them and say, "In the name of Vincent Karthieser, cut your hair!"

While waiting for Buffy last night, I had the displeasure of seeing glimpses of the Aussie version of Meet My Folks. One of the bozoes on that show had a similar haircut.

Good to see Wes isn't letting the grass die under his feet and even better to see Lilah get her "nyah nyah" pulled out from under her's. :)

Electrocutie! I like it. Though she reminded me more of an amalgamation of Glory and Fray, in look and attitude at least.

Definitely not enough Connor.

You know what I miss? I miss the shot in the credits with Angel kicking down the door in game face when the drums kick in on the theme song. I always love(d) that moment.

Good god, Amy Acker is skeletal. I sometimes feel like a broken record, because I react this way so often, it seems, to these skinny women on TV or in the movies, but I just wanted to spoonfeed her a thick beef stew and wrap her up in a blanket.

I liked the ep, but I continue to dislike A/C (but not a/c, because I think I might die here without it). Grr.

I've sat in my own house. on my own. Watching The Office and I've had to cover my face with my hands and go "Noooooooooooo!" really very loudly indeed, so i couldn't hear what was going on.

It's brilliant.

UTTAD the big guy who plays Keith used to work up here in Edinburgh. He's post-Bedlam theatre.

Kate -- I miss that shot too!!!

Nice to get to see it again in the dvds.

Ooh... the DVDs... now I'm in my happy place. Where I own a DVD player...

I miss the credit shot in Buffy of Faith and Buffy dancing. I think it was replaced with Anya dancing, but it is jst not the same.
