lol @ Andrew's analogy of witchcraft to fertility and femininity. Angelus just declared that The Beast is working for someone. I'm hoping it turns out to be the First Evil. I'm suffering from apocalypse fatigue, with so much end of the world all the time, it's pretty absurd, but at least if...

Declaration of war speech + Thunderdome smackdown = Ultra-Bad-Ass Buffy = fun.

11 or 12, and working from home with little to do, so will have the show on, and if nothing comes up might even finish the season.

Giles... wtf... is he a ghost? The First Evil in yet another disguise?

Aimee Mann hates playing these vampire towns. (That, btw, is the song from the show and is found on her album Lost In Space). (Yes I know she is not the first big name artist to play the Bronze, with The Breeders and Michelle Branch having made appearances, but this is the first one whose music...

Yes that's what I meant (and it was indeed "Cassie," short for Cassandra, who in Greek myth also could see horrible things in the future). I would expect the first one to know the basics, that Willow's gf was killed, she went nuts, tried an apocolypse, etc. But about the singing on the bridge-...

Well I mean what was the point from the FIrst One's perspective, what did she have to gain? Just to fuck with her head? To once again separate her from her friends? And how did she know such intimate details about them, especially Tara and Willow? I thought it was pretty clear Joyce wasn't...

"Conversations With Dead People" was.. um... interesting... The girl Spike walked home and bit... I'm not supposed to recognize her am I? This will be expanded upon? All of the "dead people" were separate incarnations of the first evil then? Planting divisions in Dawn's mind, obviously...

Another 24 cross-over: Palmer's header of secret service is the father of the girl who prophecies her own death. Also, let us throw fruit and various meats at Anya's ex-bf.

William's a bad man... Buffy just assumed the principal is from "the hood." Racial sensitivity, not one of a slayer's powers. A cult of boys wanting to sacrifice a girl to a demon to be rich and powerful = same plot as an older episode. A good example of how this show is not immune to the...

The only two interesting people on Angel now are Wesley and Connor, and the latter more because of the actor (his role on Mad Men is pretty much the complete opposite, a twirpy skeazy weak whiny brat). It's pretty funny to me to see him as a super-bad-ass. Fred irritates me very much. A...

I noticed the catchphrase (again, one of the benefits of watching the whole thing so fast). Vampire Willow I think was when I first saw Hannigan as a strong actress and not just a nerdy-fanboy-object-of-affection/obsession cutesy pie, which was then brought home when Oz left and confirmed...

Done with the season (changed/canceled plans, lack of interest in the Sat. night HBO fight and really really horrible weather conspired to let me blow through the rest of the season). I dunno I thought it was pretty good. Dark Willow was pretty sweet to watch (they must've blown through more...

Ok anyone who has a problem with this season 6 needs to re-watch this episode called Seeing Red. Holy shit.

Angel is Pete Campbell's father! Boy that sure explains a lot. Loved the Buffy as a mental patient in an alternate universe thing, especially the ending in that universe, not the show's "real" one. Now that I'm nearing the end of season 6, I think I get why this season is disliked despite its...

Buffy in a fast food joint and everybody gets eaten- decent 1st season episode.

But the show's always been blatant and heavy-handed with metaphors. Isn't one of the things that the show got attention for was that teenage problems were represented by literal monsters? Let's face it, if this show were any more subtle, it would be at all subtle. I'm expecting the rest of...

Ow my head hurts- it's just been beaten over the head with the magic-as-addiction metaphor.\\ So now that I'm about half-way in, can someone explain- WITHOUT SPOILERS- why this season is so hated? Yes, the nerd villain trio is lame, as discussed. But that's really a small part of the season...

Added to my digital music library, under Soundtracks, joining Amadeus, The Blues Brothers, The Harder They Come, Pulp Fiction, Singles, and O Brother Where Art Thou. It's a good group. (Purple Rain, Shaft and Superfly are, of course, listed under their respective artists) Even though it's the...

I put on Once More With A Feeling this morning while doing my morning routine, but had to sit down and re-watch the Anya/Giles/Xander sequence and caught a line I missed last time, about the police taking "witness arias." I didn't make the Joan of Arc connection... so she was a slayer and...
