See how I'm not punching him? I think I've grown.

Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Last night was the double-whammy of Hell's Bells and Sleep Tight, so Aeryn is pretty damn pissed at both Xander and Wesley today for being stupid dummies who make bad choices. (They've been wanting Xander and Anya to break up for AGES, but wanted it to be Anya's choice.)

(You guys I'm so excited for Teenage Connor to show up in a few eps.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I am so enjoying Aeryn having such correct opinions about everything!

Oh god you guys....at dinner tonight Aeryn said "Everyone is having a terrible time. Except for Willow and Tara! Lesbians, always winning."

I don't want to make them watch Seeing Red. It's going to be so awful. But here we go.

Our wings are not tired.

Oh that is going to be so painful.

As expected, that was horrible and painful to watch. I'd honestly forgotten how much of that episode is joyful reconciliation, and how needlessly cruel this episode is in that regard.

Aeryn wants Willow to kill Warren, so at least we know that payoff is coming!

(And Spike's off to get a soul, tra la la.)

AtS, OTOH, has finally gifted us with the woobie to end all woobies, my most precious of precious babies, Teen Connor. Welcome back, Connor, and thank you for solving the ever-present problem of "how do we move the plot forward without the inconvenience of having a baby on set all the time."

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I absolutely love reading Aeryn's thoughts on Buffy and Angel. Thanks for that.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

I'm just gonna stand beside Shir and nod a lot. What she said. (Hi, Shir.)

Aeryn was delighted with Dark!Willow and fully supports her decision to torture and skin Warren. (Sucking up power out of the pile of books remains a truly excellent visual.)

Most impressive was A saying "Bored now" at Warren about two minutes before Willow did. (It helps to binge-watch the show, when I saw this the first time, the original "bored now" was three years ago and not fresh in my mind.)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Dag, Aeryn's got the prescience!

How does she feel about Xander?

(I think through the historical lens his type of character looks worse to younger audiences. cf., Ross)

Do you think him saving the world with "crayon breaky Willow" will land?

Oooh, she's still got Giles' "I'd like to test that theory." moment!

When all the Buffistas yelled "Giles!" at the same time.
