To every idea a shelf...

I totally agree with the criticisms of the Italian episode. I thought it was funny -- "I signalled her with my eyes." is a top ten quote candidate -- but I hated how it interrupted the build-up to the finale and I didn't think it was a good resolution to the Angel/Spike/Buffy thing. I think it will be worse going back and watching it now because we've since learnt that Angel was planning to throw himself to the wolves, and it just doesn't hang together.

eg the one where Connor came back (the first time). But then I lose my critical faculties when Connor is on screen.

The connor one rocked

Loved that episode. I want to marry well-adjusted-but-still-slightly-dark Connor.

The finale left me utterly broken. I felt like I should get the day off work today to mourn. They give doctor's certificates for that kind of thing, right?

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Anthony Stewart Head's appearance on New Tricks just happened. Still weird seeing him not as Giles. :)

...and was called Sir Timothy...and drank Cognac older than America...

I wish they'd gone ahead and made Ripper.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

I know. I was watching New Tricks anyway (Dennis Waterman-- don't ask), and somehow I hadn't spotted ASH in the listings, and... I sort of broke.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

hey, nowt wrong with Dennis Waterman. Sure, he became a bit of a prat after the success of Minder but still: Minder. Not to mention The Sweeney ...and now, of course, New Tricks, which is terrific (he says, after seeing only one episode).

On a different note: BIG SURPRISE! eBroadcast.com.au doesn't list Tru Calling for next week.

Wow, didn't see that coming at all. t /Sarcasm

eta: re New Tricks ... also wanted to add: Amanda Redman = Hot.

Who says women in their 40s and older can't be sexy?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Not me!

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

Nor me, a woman who plans to reach her 40s.

Good plan, ita! I'm all for it.

hmmm ... maybe you really should marry me, jimi, or was it, have my babies, I can't remember which.

eta, hi all. I also watched ASH, nice to see that glint in his eye and that he was still in trouble for what he got up to in his youth.
