Sounds unbelievably... expensive.
Cheapest model (40 hours of recording space) is US$249, plus either a $12.95 monthly fee or a lifetime fee of $299. You can also rate shows as "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" as you're watching them, and it'll use those ratings to figure out other things you'll like and either have a list of "suggestions" or automatically record them.
The nicest thing is that for shows you know you want to watch, you can tell it once and it'll record those shows every time they come on (it uses the phone line to check for updated listings at least once a week). So you don't end up, like me, sitting at work cursing yourself because you forgot to set it for the new
Firefly
(I wish) for the third week in a row.
Touched spoilers: I was totally up for Faith/Wood last week but when it actually happened I was all: meh.
Me too. 'course, that might have been because I spent the whole scene sulking because really? There is no way Faith would be having the type of sex which involves leaving on her bra unless it was in the back of some kind of vehicle. I don't care if she was in a hurry, there is no excuse. And yes, my interest in the matter is a purely academic concern for how out-of-character it seemed, why do you ask?
SQQQUUUUUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
I'd like to second the squealing. I am so Lilah's bitch, it's not even funny.
Isn't that funny, though? Two characters
with so much chemistry (Faith in particular has a BBoC thing totally going on) and yet when it actually happens....eh. Kennedy just makes me want to kick something, but I liked the B/S interaction better than y'all did, I think. I like seeing them move on to a new stage in their relationship, where Buffy's able to accept support from him in a way I don't think she's ever really done before - and yet it doesn't in any way hark back to when they were sexually involved. That's my read on it anyway. And part of it's just relief at seeing Buffy let go of being wound so tight all the time - she makes me tired just watching her.
Leigh, many of the Ams found the
bra unacceptable as well and for the same reasons.
Sighhh.
Although
she does look hot in it.
IJS.
I think Touched sort of re-affirmed by love for Buffy as a character, because I felt, for one of the few times this season, the link between who she is now and the girl of seasons 1-4. My Spike hatred was kicked up a few notches though, but I've always loathed RRK's Spike, so that wasn't unexpected.
I think we can safely say that Faith looks hot in everything. Though it'd be nice to test that theory with a demonstation of some kind.
Check out
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
for some totally hot Eliza Dushku action. Can we say skin-tight leather catsuit without fainting?
