I get the impression that the person who wrote the Buffy overview doesn't even LIKE the show, and maybe never did.

You too? At least she hasn't liked it since season 3. Pffft.

And the SG-1 overviewer has too much slash-colored glasses on.

OTOH Shaye's overview was brilliant, as was the one someone did for H:LOTS.

Ha! I saw that, and hand to God, my first thought was "oh, Vonnie would be pissed off that she used that picture. That's an OOC picture, dude! Teal'c never smiles like that!"

Heh, predictable, am I not? Granted, everyone looks hella pretty, but that's not what the show is all about. OK, I guess for a lot of folks, that may be what the show's all about. I watch it for the snark and funky travel through the gate, and cool people blowing shit up. And sometimes for the angst.

I'd heard that the episode was written specifically as a way to get the kiss.

You may be right. The director dude (and the special effect guy) doing the commentary mentioned the filler necessity during the montage, but the kiss was probably planned. I have a sneaking suspicion that the pottery stuff was probably added in though.

I read the FS one, and laughed my ass off (hell, I even was driven to comment). But mostly I'm scared of reading what'll piss me off.

t blink

Why do you say so?

OTOH Shaye's overview was brilliant

The Farscape one? I was CRYING with laughter. The Smallville one is pretty funny, too.

It felt like all she cared about was the slash, to the detriment of oh, plot-related issues. But perhaps I am misremembering.

Wait! I am misremembering. It was the Firefly overviewer, not the SG-1 person. She was waaay into Simon and didn't even have anything to say about Book. I was annoyed.

Ah, that makes more sense. Yeah, I felt bad for Book too.

Y'all *have to* read the X-Men Comicverse one. I nearly died laughing, and I know nuthin' about the Comicverse, outside of what I know from the movies.

And the SG-1 overviewer has too much slash-colored glasses on.

Perhaps you meant the Firefly overview? I was irritated by that one, not because of the slash-focus, but because of the giggly high-school-girl tone of the overview. Blech. The SG-1 overview was just skimpy.

The one doing the Buffy overview also annoyed me witless with her "I know ALL the cool people in the fandom!" proclamations, but I was PMS'ing severely that day, so maybe it was just me.

X-post with 'Suela!

Also, unwitting numberslutting! Woo-hoo!

Damn, the one time I was going to try for 1000!

I will sit here with my 999 and palindrome 1001 instead.

Edit: I may possibly be avoiding doing my September monthly report. Must go work.

Who did the Buffy one?
