And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

So we aren't saying NO "SSTWAL.," we're saying SSTWAL in six months or however long it takes us to get thru Buffy 4?

I could get behind that.

As a SSTWAL person from many posts back, I can get behind this scenario as well.

To me Grrr Argh represents the sign off to all the M.E. shows. Whereas SSTWAL is distinctly for Buffy, and laying her show to rest. I guess I'd like the title to be about Buffy, and only about Buffy. Of course, that's just my opinion.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I am stuck between Grr. Argh.

and

We're taking a moment....and we're done.

Also, are we opening a Wonder Falls thread?

Grr Arrgh was a Buffy thing first. Furthermore, it's been both a line on BtVS (Tara in Bargaining) and an aria at the end of OMWF.

We're taking a moment....and we're done.

I do love that, too. But I'm thinking there are going to be more Buffy threads. Sure, they'll be slower coming, but like SSTW.AL. There'll be time for it.

Okay, realizing I'm overly invested in a thread name of all things, I'll just leave my vote for

Grr Arrgh and shut the hell up.

It's Buffy's. Dammit.

I'm anti-thread proliferation, so this is an odd proposal, but I think I would like a thread that is specific to the shows ME writers are going off to write. Jane is going to Gilmore Girls, Marti is producing a new series, and others haven't made decisions yet.

I don't know if others would like to discuss the writers' work beyond Buffy, just that I would like to do so, and hey, who doesn't want to be just like me?

Anyway, lobbing the ball out there.

I'm with Allyson on this one. Also, Tim also conveniently provided us with a name for his series, should we choose to have one.

Wonder Falls 1: Touched By A Crazy Person.

You figure, we won't need new Buffy threads after the Un-Americans get the finale. Once that happens, it will make the Previously thread obsolete, or the de facto Buffy thread, depending on how you view it.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Allyson, I was thinking about it Wednesday, and I think it's a great idea.

We could call it Post Graduate Studies or something.

Art Crawl!!!

I liked the idea of at PG thread -- although the Wonder Falls: Touched by A Crazy Person is a great thread title idea.

Still like Grr Argh. . . but there are so many good ideas for the last Buffy thread.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Were we thinking just one thread for all the 'graduates' or one per graduate?

Touched by a Crazy Person is actually what the press is calling the show...in a snarky way.
