Buffistas

Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Michelle Forbes is the actress, her part was Dr. Marian Bowles, and last time we saw her she was introducing Sarah to her daughter, Charlotte, in the last episode of Season 2.

Then in the last episode of Season 3, Charlotte tells Rachel that Rachel will be her new mommy. So what happened to Dr. Bowles?

In case you have missed it, the BBCA Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell was great (and still available on demand). It diverged from the book as little as possible, mostly in places where the differences between video and the written word demanded it; IMO it was very faithful to the spirit. I find myself speculating that one change that appears minor may result in a major divergence when the second volume comes out. If my speculations are right, a sequel from the same network may have to do backflips to restore a seemingly unimportant subconflict they eliminated.

It really was! I'm thinking of going back and giving the book another go. And I really want a sequel!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I have it all recorded and waiting for a binge watch! This weekend, hopefully.

I've decided to cancel cable at the end of next month, so I have a few weeks to watch everything I still have on the DVR before the box goes away.

I gave it three episodes and it didn't grab me. Which is disappointing, because it's right up my alley.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I was recording it, but I never read the book and I don't think I will anytime in the near future. So, I erased it. If I ever get around to the book, maybe it will be available on netflix or hulu.

I really liked it. I also really liked the book.

Yeah, I really liked the book. Then again, I enjoyed the travelogues and extensive descriptions of scenery in the Hobbit and Lord of the Ring books.

"I make mistakes, but I am on the side of Good," the Golux said, "by accident and happenchance.” – The 13 Clocks, James Thurber

My DVR erased the first episode. I never read the book. Will I be able to follow the story if I pick things up in episode 2, or should I just go ahead and delete everything?
