To every idea a shelf...

Loved it.

I had thought of two directions that could have been possible fitting endings to the series. A third one hadn't occurred to me. It occurred to Joss. That's pretty much my definition of good storytelling.

Yep, this is how I feel. I adored it because it took me places I didn't expect to go. Also, it made me laugh like a loon and broke my heart into tiny tiny tiny pieces - which is what Joss does best. So just to clarify: can we talk about specifics now?

I've been consoling myself with the Buffista archives. I know it's been said before but: geez, you are an articulate, entertaining, witty bunch of people. I love reading all the praise, the nitpicks, the random memories, the theories, the fanwanks. It's like watching a very quiet, texty episode of Buffy - I giggle, I cry, I get annoyed, I nod emphatically.

Le sigh.

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

Safer than UK beef these days, but I don't think you have to worry about that either

Seriously doubt that. Once bitten, twice obsessive about precautions against disease.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

For those Aussies -- and others -- who have yet to purchase all the Buffy or Angel DVD Box Sets, AtlanticDVD is the place to get them ... provided you're willing to wait another couple of months. Starting October 22nd, 2003, Angel and Buffy will be going out at the bargain-basement price of only $71.90 per season. Glad I held off buying Buffy Season 6 and Angel Season 1 (2nd half), 2 & 3.

Nobody

Y'know, I'm sitting here calculating how I'm going to afford every single Buffy season on dvd by getting rid of that pesky desire to consume money wasting foodstuffs. It's possible that the end of Buffy has affected me more than I thought.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Those are good prices. About twenty pounds off list.

Whyinhell don't they ship to the US?

Do they not? I missed that. Surely LA is Asia/pacific?

Their country list (for address entry) neglects to include our¹ great western economy.

Bastards.

¹: I mean LA, not the US.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Question to UnAms anyone-not-living-in-Australia-and-who-saw-the-NonAussie-version: at the very, very, very end of Buffy, did she say, "Dawny, we're going to Disneyland.", or did the Buffster just smile after Dawn's question then they cut to credits?

The latter.
