Not a problem, Elena. I'm sure we'll get together soon.
Atlantic Canadian Monday Madness
[NAFDA] We used to get Buffy the day before everyone else, now we get Angel a week after everyone else. And Firefly every Monday!
He's been experimenting with food? Because I knew about the dye incident. For goodness sake, how can orange dye not be popular at Hallowe'en?
Sob. Our VCR has been being wonky, and Nora didn't get a tape of Firefly. I was out on Friday evening, so I didn't get to see it. Anyone have a tape I could borrow?
Ouise, I do. I missed the first 3 minutes but I don't think it makes too much of a difference. I'll put it aside for you.
Yay! Thanks, Megan.
In other entertainment news, I now have a DVD player! I had a bit of trouble setting it up (I couldn't figure out how to set the TV to the correct input). I eventually managed to get it done by the time-honoured approach of calling my brother for help, having him come over and then finding the page in the TV manual myself pretty much right away. But I gave him apple pie with ice cream, so I think we're ok.
Anyone else have trouble with the volume on Angel last night? I had to turn my TV up to 30 or use closed captioning in order to get the gist of anything. WHA!
congrats on the DVD Ouise!
I watched Escape from the Newsroom and taped Angel. I did watch a bit of AtS during commercials and I did find it quiet.
Congrats 'Ouise! Have you bought any DVD's yet? We should start a little DVD lending library between the Halifaxistas.
I haven't bought any DVDs yet. Nora's going to get FoTR when the second versoin comes out in about two weeks. I'm really happy that the library has started a collection, so I'll be able to see movies for free. I think a Halifaxista library sounds great!
I found Angel's sound to be terribly muddy. Nora was talking on the phone in the same room during pretty much the entire episode, and I'd say that I only caught about half of the lines. Partway through I stopped trying so hard and just watched it. I could follow what was going on even without half of the lines, but it still made me sad. I enjoyed the episode anyway. Wasn't the guy who attacked Cordy gross. I have no idea why he was in the hotel (more of the mumbling), but I yelped really loudly when his face opened up. Ugh!
Didn't we see the face-splitting demons before? I'm sure I remember the line/ridge down their chin.
We've got a moderately large and varied DVD collection... We can certainly look at a lending library.
I watched Angel in Toronto, and the sound was okay... I think it would be very ironic and fitting were Cordy and Connor to get together... Take that Angel.
When will you be back Elena? Friday?
