Yep. They made Joss rework some stuff. He also had to take out some shots of the school exploding. Which was rather unfortunate because the effects guys had worked so hard and done such a great job.
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

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.

I can't even.
Thanks for the warm welcome folks, time for me to hit the hay.
Perhaps I'll be able to get some work done tomorrow instead of mourning the show all day. If not, well, I tried, but it would kinda suck to lose a job over a wrapped show, no?
G'night.

My depression lifted two days after I saw the finale, but I was really surprised that it had that effect on me at all. I can't usually attribute my moods to events in my daily life.
It's really cool to be able to post in the Buffy threads after spending all season on my own. I think I came a little closer to understanding "Show, don't tell" from the discussion before. It's easy to say, but hard to separate from "I didn't believe it, so they must have only told it." I came across a really neat prediction from Julie.
I want Buffy's legacy to be that no one girl will ever have to deal with the isolation and separation that she had to face. If that means there's no slayer, I'm okay with that. Because, I think, the price was always too high.
I am so chuffed, on board, behind, in love with the slayer empowerment thing. It's absolutely the perfect wrapup to the myth and to the struggle of Buffy. That's just why.

Um, I'm sure lots of you felt a void much like I did tonight. Couldn't they at least show a rerun instead of that inane model show? Meeting some of you this weekend should help with the withdrawal though. . .
I flipped thru the channels and realized that there's nothing worth watching on Tuesdays now! I think this will become a homework night now. Tonight though, I watched the DVD of "Real Women Have Curves" instead. (It was a good movie, btw).

The REALLY annoying thing is, according to the TVGuide, they were supposed to rerun the season 7 opener. Which I missed. Instead, we get miserable vapidity. Curses.

Huh? Oh. Good morning Buffistas. It's chilly. I'd better dig out my letter sweater.
Welcome, JohnSweden.
Say it loud and there's music playing,
Say it soft and it's almost like praying.

They edited before they fed it.
But the US version of "Graduation Day 2" (when the finale finally aired) was the same as the Canadianland version wasn't it?

Is the DVD version of Graduation Day complete?

I believe so. I don't think there were any further edits.
Is the DVD version of Graduation Day complete?
I've never seen the DVDs so I don't know.

So, I took the opportunity last night to spend some time playing video games last night. I had a big open spot in my schedule.
But when I made the realization that I could do whatever I wanted, there was about fifteen minutes of wandering around the apartment like a lost puppy saying "it's over, she's gone..."
It was sad.
