Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

I have nothing but bad, bad words to say about the Kittens.

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

It really had nothing to do with Kittens, at all.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

(I still think it's all bullshit, and there was never a Tara in S7 for AB to turn down.)

I don't know if this was to me or CaBil, but my bad words for the Kittens have nothing to do with CaBil's post. I just don't like them.

I agree with Jess.

Jessica, if a talking cantaloupe had been planned as the Big Bad, but the cantaloupe's negotiations fell apart, I'd believe it. If they told me that the reason that Giles couldn't touch stuff was because the snowcone conjugated a bean dip, I'd have to buy it. Why? Because the season was tossed together with all the cohesion of baby snot.

See, it's because Buffy was ressurected that the Eye of Botox legume fish burlap sack. Look! Over there! 48 girls in stupid hats beating up ubervamps that could not be killed 16 eps ago!

Less actually. (Messy!Co-worker has baby with cold - that shit's purty sticky.)

And yet, I am still mad about not watching a re-run right now. Also mad at still being at work right now.

Oh, ITA, Allyson, but this specifically sounds too much like the Wild at Heart commentary for me to take it even a little bit seriously.

If skills sold, truth be told, I'd probably be lyrically, Talib Kweli. Truthfully I wanna rhyme like Common Sense But I did five mill' - I ain't been rhymin like Common since (Jay-Z)

I agree that it sounds like bullshit. According to interviews with Amber, she turned down CWDP because she didn't want Tara to come back as the First. This Joss interview was the first I'd heard of a planned actual Willow/Tara reunion. If that had been the proposed storyline, it seems like Amber would have jumped at it.

Somebody (Amber or Joss) is full of shit, and the fact that there is a shooting script of CWDP that has Tara in it seems to support Amber's story.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If Joss made even a bit of sense ... but he doesn't. It didn't even read like he was trying. Which, as Allyson might contend, fits in with S7. Or as I might, fits in with the idea that ASH films with no pants on.

If Tara had come back as a zombie, and eaten Kennedy's brains, I would have cheered.

Not enough wrod in the world.

I really think AB did the responsible thing in turning down appearing in S7. It was such a crappy misguided year, they would have utterly ruined squandered Tara anyway.

Oh, and I can't believe that Joss Whedon thought that the stupid "I may be dead, I may be evil, but either way I'm poorly written: The Rupert Giles Story" was amusing. Forget the whole part about it being a cheap trick, a lame stunt, and insulting to the audience. It just wasn't funny. I thought this man was supposed to know comedy.
