Buffy 4: Grr. Arrgh.
This is where we talk about Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No spoilers though?if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. This thread is NO LONGER NAFDA. Please don't discuss current Angel events here.
Is it wrong that I want the entire town of Sunnydale and all its occupants to get sucked into the hellmouth, closing it forever
Heh. I do think it's kind of interesting that they've been openly evacuating Sunnydale for the last three weeks or so and yet none of us really picked up on what that likely meant.
Okay - I think it's very funny (in a fun way) that Plei, candy and I all think there was most likely the sex, are all cool about it, and all dreaded it since the end of Seeing Red.

it was a selfless act on his part to give her the freedom from any acute mourning
This was also my take on Spike's, "No you don't."
I *loved* it that all the potential Slayers were activated. Somewhere, probably in Cleveland, a mugger is going to go after what he thinks is an easy mark and is going to get his ass kicked by an 87-year-old (who aged out in the late 1930's) in really cute orthopedic shoes.
And somewhere, probably also in Cleveland, there is a two-year-old Slayer. Horrors.

Oh deena... what is Raptor Girl up to this morning?
I dunno - I thought Willow won the Awful Outfit award for the episode. Though it's a shame she didn't get to wear one last bad hat. I guess Vi took that role.
My big overall regret for the *season* is Giles. He is to Season 7 what Aeryn Sun was to Season 4 of Farscape. Maybe they ran off together before their respective seasons started.
Okay, I'm totally on board with this concept.
Ken - GBH was a 1991 UK series by Alan Bleasdale, starring Robert Lindsay, Lindsay Duncan and Michael Palin. It was about a left-wing Labour council leader in a Liverpoolesque city and his decline into madness. It was just one of those perfect short run TV shows, and I'd recommend it to anyone. It just sums up the '80s in Britain.
Oh, and they didn't have The Sex.
I, too, believe that Buffy and Spike had comfort sex on the eve of the battle, and I find myself feeling surprisingly OK with this, despite myriad objections I've harbored about their getting back together in any kind of physical sense. Because of the extraordinary circumstances they were in, and because of the subtle way it was implied. Just the long wordless look across the room, then quiet fade-out to black. I loved that.

I wish Joss had written all B/S scenes from S6 til now. I would've been OK. The other writers just don't get it right IMO. I really think Joss is THE best writer of the relationship stuff. Not too schmoopy, they are more like real people and he makes it fit with the characters. I felt more emotional truth with B/S in Chosen than I ever have.
I am so grateful for that because my bitterness is vast.

Dagnabbit, Plei! You stole my post!
There was no sex. Stop it.
Yeah, I wish Joss had written the whole thing too.
Bastard.
