Buffy the Vampire Slayer

[Impossible Girl]

When Puppet Angel gets uncontrollably excited and runs across his office, all you see is the top of his little head as he bounces past Fred and Gunn and I die laughing every time

Yup. Exactly

 

[Agent Sparrow]

I fucking hate the puppet episode. By far one of the worst ones imo. I felt it was really shark jumpy.

How do you dare hating one of the best episodes of all times ?

 

[Agent Sparrow]

But it's awful! Awful awful awful!

So off sick from work today and just did a playbuzz quiz on Buffy, which I won't post here on account of it being rather insultingly easy. However, has made me consider spending the rest of the day watching Buffy again from the beginning, or at least series 2. Can anyone see any flaws in this plan?

You probably won't want to stop at series 2 and you'll have to manufacture ever-more-convoluted sickness charades to keep you off work?

^ this.

No I only work till Wed anyway, so if it comes to that it will be rubbish parenting instead

 

[Agent Sparrow]

It is a tricky dilemma though whether to watch from a certain point, suggesting you can carry on when you have time, or just pick the favourite episodes.

Re-watching Buffy and Angel from the start is a project I attempted a couple of times, but I never managed to finish. Too many episodes !

Probably leading to a sordid downward spiral of unemployment, Buffy dependency and books on witchcraft aimed at teenage girls from the 90s.

Your choice Sparrow

I usually pick the favourites. But sometimes it's a natural process - you watch one and then have to follow on.

There are some I avoid like the plague too, some because I don't like them (Beer Bad, Killed By Death) and some because they're so fucking good they are far too emotional (Passion).

Season 4 is usually my go to season.

This happens to me. If I dip in with a random one, then I start watching them from there on... until the end

No. Please proceed.

I love Buffy quizzes btw.

No there are not.
You are just weak

 

[kittyP]

I am watching the episode of Torchwood with James Masters in it.
It's making me very happy

 

[kittyP]

Watching James Masters and John Barrowman snog and then beat the shit out of each other is one of the hottest thing I've ever seen! *fans self*

Why Academics Love 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer'

 

[kittyP]

Just watched The Gift.
Giles with Ben! Oh goodness *wipes eyes *

 

[Rebelda]

I rewatched the end of season 6 and all of 7 last week *sniff* with much (over)analysis and commentary with the gorgeous Glitter

I'm on Angel now. The whole Connor returns and Cordelia wtf shit is about to start. I really really hate what they did with those story lines.

What is with the Cordy guff? Did she want to leave or get pregnant or something? And Fred it's all so unnecessary.

I know it's necessary for, like, plot and stuff alright

Charisma Carpenter got pregnant so they had to rewrite a lot of what happened in the latter half of S4, I think the original ideas are online somewhere but can't remember.

Also, yay Buffy thread bump, having just finished Jessica Jones there were quite a few lines and parallels that made me think of her as an older Faith

I knew it was shit and didn't work for a reason! Thanks

Jessica Jones - recommended?

I like Fred.
And once they are in Wolfram and Heart it's really good.
But you need the build up for them to get there.
I bloody hate Jasmin though. That story lines really shite.
Oh and I hate Conner the little brat.

I've just started Jessica Jones.
Liking it so far.

I don't know how true it is but someone told me Cordelia ascended because she was in rehab.

That would be glorious if it was true she had that big absence when baby Connor gets taken away in season 3 as well. Speaking of which, Darla staking herself is such a stroke of genius.

I like Fred too kittyP I just crave happy endings and I hate that they couldn't cure her of the blue problem. The whole jasmine thing is best forgotten, but i agree it's ace when they get to W&H.

Theory - Connor is to Angel what Dawn is to btvs.

I really wish they'd just kept him around as a baby, i think it could have been interesting.

 

[Glitter]

Being completely off her chops would explain the short blonde hair....

Connor is ok in my book until he effectively shags his Mum.
