The Minearverse 6: Fiery Thread of Death

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath. Oh, and help us get Terriers dvds!

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

Then my imagination is just real good at filling holes cause, it really did make sense to me.

And I still refuse to read the script no matter how much I am teased with it. My source is saving it for me to read after the episode airs. I want to see how much it changes.

I was kinda surprised by how much the season around that episode sort of... um. Er. Gotta go.

Snerk. But at least there was OMWF, which redeems a lot. It was kind of worth it.

And I think the scariest Buffy ep for me was probably Hush. That I find not being able to talk scary will come as no surprise to anyone who knows me. Or has been in the same room with me. Ever.

How sad is it that I'm even behind in Minearverse. Sigh.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Just be glad you know somebody to tease you with it, T.

This comment about the Dollhouse trailer made me laugh: "Please dear God, no more Papyrus". Word. I quite like the trailer, but it risks turning into a Powerpoint presentation at times.

Also, EW Dollhouse feature: [link]

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

it really did make sense to me.

Me, too, Tamara. Enough to be intrigued, anyway.

"Conversations With Dead People" was the only Buffy episode that really made my skin crawl.

Oh, I am. I'm just trying to walk this fine line of not being completely spoiled while searching out any and all info that I can on the show. I do realize that this behavior isn't exactly rational.

We've got a new Dollhouse trailer going online in about 30 minutes.

I think "Hush" is the all time creep episode for me. The music is so sinister throughout that there's no real musical cue to say "close your eyes, now, something icky is going to happen." Gyeesh.

Kevin, go to sleep. Let it wait until tomorrow.
