So you constantly have visions of monkeys beating the shit out of Dawn. Good to know. DON'T TELL ME ABOUT IT AGAIN. I get the idea already!
Hmm. I think this should be filmed and shown as the Buffy Christmas Special every year. But I don't have gigantic glowy green asspull issues, no sir.
I watched OMWF over the weekend, and it struck me, even more so than it did the first time I saw it, that Tara's song is the porniest thing EVER. God love UPN's lack of an S&P department.
Did you watch the commentary? Joss even says it was porn!

I had thought that Tara's song was intended to end after the first syllable of "complete" but that S&P said no way. Given what was latter aired on the show, however, I am thinking that there was no S&P department at UPN.
Oh, Rayne...your tag. So. Fucking. Proud.(I knew at least one Buffista would love that...who isn't me.)
Oh, my...off topic...call a cop. And I know just the one.
Buffy is wearing (brace yourself -- seriously) a green, lavender, peach, and brown beaded halter top, skintight flared brown pants with a white tie-dyed pattern thing on them, and a full-length (as in, to the ground) lavender hooded sweatshirt.
This IS the worst outfit EVER! I thought I was going to die when I saw it.
I am not in love with the costumes as a whole, to be quite honest, but man that was bad!
It really was the worse. I think only Willow's Elmo pelt approaches it in ugliness, and at least that was just the shirt. These were three bad pieces, shoved together, with the only uniting theme being ugly-badness.
I had tears in my eyes, and was breathless when I read that TWoP recap, because just...yes.

I am 37, and have not an ounce of style. I wear jeans and sweaters in the cooler months, and jeans or shorts, and something that won't make me hot, as a shirt, in the summer. So, I am no fashionista to begin with. What I appreciated about the costumes though, was that although they don't look like anything I see people wearing, they left me with the same feeling I get when I look at younger people (teens, primarily) and think, "Hmm. Is
that
a style?" In other words, I bought that they wore those clothes, although my Buffy never wore that outfit in
The Replacement.
Maybe my Buffy would have owned those three pieces, but she wouldn't have worn them together.
My mom, watching OMWF, when Tara and Willow are singing:
"Why are they wearing those clothes?"
"Why are they wearing those clothes?"
Because even UPN wouldn't approve an all-nekkid, all-gay "Buffy."
I'm not so sure of that... I suspect Joss just gave up on fulfilling his promise by then.
He did, however, very nearly live up to the "all gay" half of that several times on Angel.
