DCJ - you're killin' me, man.
Also? The only reason I caught the ep (it was a weird travel day that involved being at my mother's house for the evening, so Tuesday? Huh? Where am I?) is that my mother was flipping through the channels (I wasn't watching) and ran across it (post cookie dough/Angel) and said, "Now, isn't this that show you like so much? Isn't she that girl? Don't you want to watch this?"
What a mom. She even laughed at the Faith/Wood scene during the "I'm way prettier than you," and the "... you were [thumbs up] enthused ...," which, you know, she's not a prude or anything by a long shot, but she was born in 1928, so unmarrieds talking about their casual sexual encounters? Not her usual form of entertainment. Go, Mom! Go, Buffy!
What are we going to do now?
I think you mean:
WHERE DO WE GO...FROM HERE?
Okay, Ken broke me.
Now I'm in trouble.
Or my work here is done.
Or bedtime calls.
I think the last - goodnight all!
WHERE DO WE GO...FROM HERE?
No kidding - I sang this last night after Dawn asked.
The curtains close
On a kiss . . . no, wait
On a smile--dammit, now the meter's shot to hell
Where do we go from here?
(Hmm. A freeform musical.)
Gee Brain, what are we gonna do tomorrow night?
Same thing we do every night, Pinky. Try to take over the WORLD!
I think they can do it. They have the slayer powers....
It occurred to me after signing off last night - has there ever been a season-ender on Buffy where "Where do we go from here?" ISN'T the operative question left open on some level, for some or all the characters?
The only one I could argue is Prophecy Girl ("I say we party"), but Buffy ended up asking herself the WDWGFH? question over the summer.
Well, that's what makes it great, isn't it?
I don't really know what to say - - I don't want to say nothing, but it's still difficult to believe that there won't be more Buffy.
I re-watched my "Chosen" tape last night (I've already crammed my Tuesdays full of stuff. . . well, if UPN had continued to run Buffy at the traditional hour it wouldn't have been a problem) and there are so many great little things -- the Faith/Wood scene (watching Angel made me wish hard for more Wes/Faith -- but Faith/Wood could have been great too); the Angel scenes, Buffy and Dawn after Dawn comes back, the little allusion to the end of WTTH/The Harvest. .. you know what I mean.
