Does anyone know if the wild feed for 8.4 (Total Domination) will be up today even though it does not air until next Tuesday?
Unless UPN does the right thing and airs it instead of the Tyra Banks show "Search For a Supermodel:The Reunion" which is what they have scheduled.
There is so much going on in the promos I don't think I can wait another week.

Today's stupid question is not prompted by anything in particular, just me showering and reflecting.
Why the hell do so many people claim Buffy left Spike "to die" in the alley in Dead Things after the consentual smackdown/meltdown? I've gone over and over the text, and except for the "We haven't seen him this beaten down since Glory had a go at him," I'm not seen where they're getting it. Hell, as there's a cut between her leaving the police station that night, and her getting the gang together the next morning, she could have dragged his ass back to the crypt in the mean time, and even if she didn't, I'm still not seeing the "horrible bitch left the woobie to die."

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
People say she left him to die?
Um, they know he's already dead, right?
Edit: Oh, because of the sun issue. Right.

That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. That makes less sense that "I know how we'll torture the vampire who doesn't need to breath! Let's drown him!"
eta: Oh. Sun. Huh. I still never thought she was leaving him to die.

Cause they're looking for any excuse to ride the Buffy Is a Bitca bus?

Yeah, Dead Things is pretty much the key episode, it seems, for the argument that Buffy's an abusive user.
Which I maintain is a radical interpretation of the text fueled by a bag an hour crack habit.
Exclusive of Dead Things (where the violence was used differently), given that Spike and Buffy were both hot peeps with superpowers, and that one was, at the time of their affair, technically evil but not practicing, I'm always a little amazed that people are shocked at their habit of punching each other. In the "dude, don't you watch any other genre stuff or read comic books?" kind of way, because that's what Super People do.

Of course, he could've avoided the sun by sticking his head under a newspaper, so...

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I'm always a little amazed that people are shocked at their habit of punching each other.
Well, people like that are so blinded by the "oh, he's the perfect boyfriend and she doesn't appreciate him" that they kind of forget the whole larger heroes-n-villians aspect of the entire 'verse. Pfeh.
