I don't think we don't care, Katie. It's just that, speaking only for myself, I don't see the same vibe-change that you see.
Whatever happened to the still beating heart of a virgin? No one has any standards anymore.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You can see where the vibe of the titles changes, and guess from that where the Angelus mini-arc's going to end.
You can. I honestly can't, and am curious if you can see it with hindsight, or you could tell this going in.

"the one where Kennedy is annoying..."
Sorry, that's about half the 7th season.

Daniel, what does even the former title tell people who already know the show's casting changes?

Really? I thought that was a relatively recent development -- a cautiousness that became ingrained.
Late to the discussion, but I fully agree with ita here.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
IJS, if it's the former? Semi-spoilery to some, not to others.
It won't be spoilery to anyone who's seen (1) the opening credits of the first episode or (2) the promo.

That seemed to be a common point people mentioned in the discussion about the casting spoiler amendment -- that we've drifted way over to the side of overly cautious.
I'm only half joking when I say I think there are people who still consider it a spoiler that we talked about Buffy not coming back for an 8th season.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I like absolutes. I like not having any confusion.
We created a short-cut for spoiler font, and it's pretty much the easiest thing in the world to white-font something.
I don't particularly care about ep titles or directors, but I also don't understand the violent objections some people have toward white-font. (Or why the hell people voted to get rid of the Spoilage Lite thread, but *shrug*).

Art Crawl!!!
or (I'm hoping) (3) numerous spots on the WB promoting not just that episode but all of Angel
Well, maybe that is too much to ask for.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
(Also, that rumour is months old, and the likelihood of that being the title of 5.2 is slim to none.)
