As Willow, they keep the hair cutesy. Her face is unusual, with strong, almost masculine features and those incredible forest eyes. In shots like these, the hair softens the nose and chin, and brings out the eyes best.

I'd love to see AH do drag. That may be just me.

Thanks for all the fish.

just as it was with NB, who is much too good looking to really be a Xander.

I think that Joss commented (on the WTTH DVD) that NB was too pretty and muscular to really be that unpopular in high school.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Maybe by late high school. I don't know. I knew a guy all through middle school who didn't get many second glances. He wasn't unattractive, just not one of those guys girls tend to notice.

By the end of his senior year I thought he was very very pretty. Of course, by then I was dating someone, but I'm sure he's done well for himself.

All is well that ends in pizza.

You know, it's funny. I don't think of Willow on the show as being particularly beautiful. Cute, attractive, sure. Beautiful? Not so much.

But Alyson Hannigan is jaw-droppingly gorgeous.

Exactly. Adult, confident and glowy.

Cute Willow, sexy Alyson. It's like she's an actress or something.

She needs more screen time in a variety of genres.

Hell, they all do.

Pity NB's show wasn't picked up.

Anyone know if NB's pilot is downloadable?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Still looking for the ones for you from WTT Hellmouth SA, anything else?

Nope, just that. Thanks.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

WRT Storyteller, we had a bunch of storms and I lost power from 7-12 last night. So, no 'vamPYR' fun for me. t pout On the plus side, I did finally get a decent night's sleep. Amazing how sitting in the dark with nothing to do makes you sleepy.

I'd love to see AH do drag. That may be just me.

Hmm. Not just you.

Just rewatched The Pack, and NB does 'smoldering' very very well. I love Xander, but it would be fun to see this aspect of NB some more. And by aspect, I clearly mean 'naked and wet.'

Nobody

Maybe it was because I had seen each episode only once as opposed to Buffy - but I lost my shit when I got my Angel DVDs - I have re-watched them a zillion times now. I had forgotten how much I loved Doyle - and how sad I was when he wasn't there anymore. And now, of course, it's all just sad.

Dh and I were noticing how many comments were made to and by Doyle about drinking in The Bachelor Party, by his soon-to-be ex-wife, Cordelia, etc.. It wasn't too far ahead of Hero (or is it Heroes?) in the line-up. I think only I Will Remember You was between the two. It was widely rumored that GQ had to leave the show because of substance problems, and (now) in the wake of his death, it makes me wonder if the writers weren't trying to reach out to GQ, through the dialogue. Of course now, I couldn't remember another specific example of that dialogue to save my life. But still...

I know with Doyle, there were, always, the Irish character - easy cultural stereotype drinking - jokes at work, but the comments in The Bachelor Party (and I don't mean this in an unkind way toward anyone - actor or writer) really hit me on the meta-textual level this time. I really enjoyed Doyle, and although at this stage in the game, if AD hadn't turned up and given us the Wesley we've been so fortunate to get these past few seasons, I don't think I'd still be watching, I can't help but wonder what might have been, had GQ been in a place where he could have stayed on as Doyle. It is all so sad.

edited - because I'm lucky I'm not up on charges for grammer bebutcherment.

I know what you mean about the meta with GQ Cindy and the alcoholism - but I do really think that even before they cast the part that they had wanted to run this metaphor of addiction and alcoholism through the whole show.

In the Season 1 overview, Greenwalt mentions that their idea was that Angel was always "one drink away" from going back to his old ways - and I think Doyle's alcoholism *would* have played more into that had GQ stayed on the show.

Probably the RL problems they suffered with GQ made them all a bit squicked on carrying on with that metaphor. It is just too weird to watch the Joss/Greenwalt commentary on City of because they talk about every extra and prop and NEVER mention GQ - even when he is the only thing on the screen.

Haven't done this. Didn't know that. Now I want to.

And a couple of million others (me included).
