Ah yes, the PTC...(rolls eyes)...don't pay much attention to them...it was only after I read their review of Season Six that I got the allusions to oral sex in "Under My Spell." Good thing we have people out there keeping a close eye for anything indecent.
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.
Okay that didn't sound right...I mean that they let those of us that like "indecent" stuff know where we can find it.
They *are* decent characters. They just happen to enjoy oral sex.
My mom didn't have any trouble with the lesbian storyline in OMWF, but she did say of Willow and Tara "why are they wearing those ugly clothes?"
I know, I know, don't take offence, I love W&T too
When I got my parents to sit through the first half of OMWF (no small feat—Dad makes David Boreanaz look focused, and Mom's reaction to musicals is akin to that of pod people to humans in that 70s Invasion of the Body Snatchers remake), Mom's reaction to the big Willow/Tara serenade was "are those two girls... witches?" You had to be there, but her tone so matched the euphemistic treatment of "doing spells" on the show itself, I could barely keep from cracking up.
Oh, I was paraphrasing The Goodbye Girl.
Sex and violence on television? Since when?
Rating the season finales-I liked them all a lot, though Prophecy Girl (as with Season 1 as a whole) is the least of them for me. My favorite ep is Graduation Part I (which I suppose is technically cheating as it didn't end the season). The one that makes me cry every time is The Gift.
I don't think that's cheating. I think the actual two parters (one whole episode, split between two hours) should only (have to) be counted as one episode. For me, Becoming is just Becoming. Ditto Surprise/Innocence, What's My Line, Graduation Day. Two to Go/Grave and Bargaining are a bit more splittable for me, but the others seem more seamless.

You should show her Willow wearing Elmo's pelt, just to give her some perspective.
So, I watched Band Candy this morning and realized that I have been totally corrupted by erika's AU version in Buffistafic. I kept waiting for Munch to show up. I also realized that I may be a little bloodthirsty, because my first reaction was, "Only five babies? That's not much of an offering. Why'd they go to all that trouble if they were only gonna take five?"
Band Candy. Sigh. Good times.
