Oh, Cinemax picked up the series, did they? I hadn't realized.

Nope still on UPN, but they are pushing so many buttons that I expect S9 to be on Skinemax or Showtime.

I feel like there are so many stories where the women never get to do anything interesting that I saw the Buffy girl power thing as a nice change. Plus, it might be sexist of me, but I really, really like seeing women be the center of stories. If it's all men, there's nothing *there* for me a lot of the time.

I agree, Lyra. I also disagree though with connie's premise. I think the Xander character faded away, but I do think male characters got plenty of focus, certainly more than our female characters have usually ended up with on Angel.

Also? I would have hated a Xander is gay storyline. I am not sure why, but I guess I just liked that this man who honestly liked women, preferred their friendship, was straight, and would have (at least at times) liked to have been (and in Willow's case, was) romantically (or sexually) involved with them, but when it didn't work out (or last), the friendship was more important, and easily survived the romantic feelings.

I like to talk about politics with people that agree with me, and I like high class places.

OK, so I saw the line-up for FX's "Buffy Marathon" and it struck me as an incredibly Xander heavy roster. In fact ALL the Xandercentrique epis are in it. Is it co-inky-dink or is it because Nick Brendon has a new sitcom appearing on Fox?

I thought his pilot didn't get picked up?

Hmmmmm....no! Dammit there must be a reason. We're through the looking glass here, people!

All is well that ends in pizza.

Sorry about the recaps, life is getting me behind.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

It sounds like a line from a cheap Soviet knock-off of BtVS.
