'Lineage'
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.
I thought it was established somewhere that Buffy's birthday was in January?Buffy quips that she's a Capricorn on the cusp of Aquarius, at some point.
In some episode-- I Robot, You Jane, maybe, Buffy's school records show on the screen, but the birthdate is different in two different shots. I *think* it's the year that is changed, but I'd have to find it.

I remember this and I think the date changed completely. There are a bunch of screen shots for buffy at: [link]
Did we know that Michelle Trachtenburg is starring in a movie about ice skating? I saw the trailer in the Disney store today and it looks ... well, Joan Cusack is in it, and Michelle has shiny shiny hair, so it's probably not *that* bad. But it's funny that MT is wholesoming it up again, after the character she played on Six Feet Under.
(From the buffy.nu article, it looks like this may be old news, but it was the first I heard of it.)
I saw the trailer. She skates with mathematics. Just like River would.
It looks like a very fun movie. I want to see it.
The trailer looks very dumb. And requires that I see the movie at first opportunity. Because MT (who I have an unholy love for, especially and including Dawn, and anybody who doesn't agree can just GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT!), plus incredibly silly-looking cheesy feel-good Disney teen movie makes it my kind of entertainment.
We've been watching the past seasons of 24 like it was the crack it is. Wednesday night, we put on the first disc from season 1, even though we've watched it before, just because we must! have! more! Anyhow, it wasn't playing right. It mostly froze up, and then played, although occasionally, it skipped, too. The DVD didn't look too scratched up, or anything--actually looked fairly pristine, but we tried the second disc, and had the same problem.
Last night, we broke out the BtVS S7 DVDs, because they were still shrink wrapped, and we wanted to determine if we were having a problem with the 24 discs, or the DVD player. It must be the 24 DVDs.
But oh! I miss my girl. Season 7 wore me down a bit, and is not one of my favorite seasons (although I was thrilled by the ending itself), so I'd forgotten how much I loved the beginning of it. Lessons was wonderful. I remember being wary of Kit and Carlos, because I really didn't want a Scrappy Gang season, but...well, we got a Scrappy Gang season with the SiTs, anyhow. That said, there really were some great moments in Lessons. The teaser with the unnamed Potential running (but not talking!!!)through Istanbul! Buffy's, "It's about power," ending the first scene (proper), being bookended with the parade of First Evil Manifestations, and the Master's "It's about power," was just great. Insane in the basement Spike! Giles', "Do you want to be punished?" (yes please). Willow all drained and guilty. Giles's handwaving away the magick!crack aspect of Willow's storyline. Anya and Halfrek in the coffee shop! There's always a talisman! Spiffy in-a-suit Xander! It was nice to remember I had some love left for the show itself, and not just the characters. I remembered that I also liked Beneath You, even the Spike-sizzling-on-cross scene (although I haven't yet re-watched it while awake).
I hope that the entire season does as well for me in review as Lessons, even though I mostly know it won't.
I watched house-destroying sex again. Still hot.

I'd think that eventually someone will notice the problem and change it. In that case, I'll look crazy.
