I love the voiceover in "Passion." Damn, that Angelus is so gleefully evil. I love Boreanaz when he gets to really run with Angelus.

Trust my rage

The Angelus voiceover is one of my favorites, but I also really like the Buffy VO at the very end. The part where Willow's trying to teach and Buffy is talking about how she's accepted that she'll never give him back always gives me chills. Of course, every time I hear the Angelus VO about how life without passion would be easier, but we'd be dead inside, that always strikes home too.

Why is this kind of television no longer on, except in re-runs???

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...

That episode also marks the debut of Willow's chilling cries of "Noooo!" which appear again in "Seeing Red." Still cuts right through me.

Art Crawl!!!

They keep saying that they're going to air the unaired episodes of Tru Calling.

They said that about the unaired eps of Firefly too.

I actually saw a Season 1 DVD of Tru Calling in Best Buy the other day. I was pretty surprised since I didn't figure on it having as a vocal a fanbase as Firefly or Wonderfalls, though I guess I was just being elitist.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

There are actual fansites, Kalshane. And petitions to save it. It baffled me.

Of course, there were also petitions to cancel it.

I certainly never loved it, but I stuck with it till the bitter end, long after I realized how bad it was. It got better, but too little too late.

The surest way to get a devoted fandom to hate your new show (Point Pleasant,) is to blame it for the cancellation of their show (Tru Calling.) Gail Berman should know that by now.

No kidding. I still run across the occaisional vitriol from rabid Dark Angel fans.

This boggles my mind. I'm always of the opinion "If you don't like a show, just don't watch it." I've never understood how the existance of a TV program, no matter how distasteful it may be, can directly impact someone's life.

I tried watching it but gave up after about 6 episodes. Much like last season's Alias, I realized I had 3 unwatched episodes on tape and no real desire to dedicate the time required to sit down and watch said episodes.

I've never understood how the existance of a TV program, no matter how distasteful it may be, can directly impact someone's life.

Well, Fox has aired several reality shows that I consider insulting enough or downright harmful enough to society to be worth calls for cancellation. But I don't think fictional situations can have that same sort of impact.

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

Buff Diving just said:

I feel that Save Our Show campaigns are so last season. I think the next evolution in fashionable fandom activities should be Cancel That Other Show campaigns.

I vote that we start with Everybody Loves Raymond.

Because, you know, everybody really doesn't.

Oh, that Kristen.
