I absolutely ADORED that
It mostly just made me giggle, because of how completely off-handedly it was treated. Just like saying,
"So, young Bobby seems to be taking an interest in football." "Oh really, darling? Good for him!"
There was one moment that just JUMPED out at me, where I felt like the show had *something* there, that I'm hoping will just take off like gangbusters -- in the
kitchen, when Dahlia says they're "investing" the money, and Wayne says "American Dream," yadda yadda, we're going to LIVE here, and then youngest!son says, "That's the craziest thing I've ever heard," -- there was this LOOK between Wayne and Dahlia that was, just for a moment, LOADED with everything about their relationship, and all the potential they have together to be an utter force of nature.
Or did I maybe misinterpret? Little things like that tend to be *everything* to me.
Ah, thanks. I'll search BS for it.
I kind of felt that there, too, Tep. So, not necessarily just you.
But my sanity is frequently suspect as well.
You know those little credit cards they send out that fit on a keychain? I got one with my Bank of America credit card but I thought I'd never use it.
At the salon, after getting cut, colored and an eyebrow wax, I realized I'd taken my wallet out of my purse and did not have anything to pay them with.
EXCEPT wonderful, tiny, emergency credit card.

I dunno - the science-y parts of Buffy and Angel were not really why I watched the show....
I think that the fun in such things, if it exists, is taking the casually dropped incoherent McGuffins that the Joss and Co. uses as plot bunnies, and sculpting them into a scientifically plausible alternate physics. So fun springing FROM the show, not fun to be found IN the show. Whether you like that sort of thing depends on whether that sort of thing is what you like.

I find very funny. I suspect reactions will be divided evenly between "hilarious", and "Meh".
They can't complain about Eurovision any more!
Ya gotta love the Finns. Or maybe only if you're Finnish (like me).
Jennifer Ouellette (The Physics of the Buffyverse) was fun. There were about 25-30 people there - somewhat more than I expected.
Raines
is chockful of "It's that guys"! (So far: Alexa Davalos, Eve from Northern Exposure, the XO of the Pegasus and Meredith Gray's bio-dad.)
Ha! Ring tones!
that was funny
