Yeah, I have it, and have listened to it a few times, but always seem to immediately get distracted and turn it off for some reason (like, I would get a phone call and then forget to turn it back on).  But, the first couple of tracks are pretty good, from what I remember.

Am I odd in believing "Hush" is better than all three of those?  Not that I don't like them, just that "Hush" is like the Platonic ideal of horror-comedy television.

Anytime Whedon breaks out the Sarah McLachlan, you know you better go find a hankie.

I know you explained what episode already, but I'm going to take this thread as an opportunity to cite my own most-hated episode: Killed by Death.  It's ridiculously awful, invents a "Buffy hates hospitals!" thing out of nowhere, destroys the otherwise fantastic progression of the back-half of Season 2, and, so far as…

The way I explain is that Season 3 is the most consistently good, but it doesn't reach the heights of the best of Season 2.  That said, it nowhere approaches the worst of Season 2.  Killed by Death, anyone?

@avclub-e57f718840a576abbb40a7d046c4e3b0:disqus I would really complain about you giving away the end of Invitation to a Beheading, except for the fact that for some unknown reason Vintage decided to publish a spoiler in the blurb on the back cover.  Man, to this day, I'm still pissed about that.

I'm all for giving the proceeds of the single to cancer research, but I'm pretty torn on buying it if the money's going to Komen, after their obviously-political decision to cut off funding to Planned Parenthood last year.  I like my breast cancer research without a blatant conservative bias, thank you very much.

Plus, I find it highly unlikely he could prove his lawyers forced him into signing it.  What could the lawyers possibly do?  The worst case scenario I can think of would be telling him that if he didn't sign and STFU, they would have to cease representing him because they knew his conduct to be fraudulent.  Otherwise,…

FWIW, it's pretty uncommon to have contracts like these notarized.  The parties know each other, so the signatures are sufficient.  When I was in practice, we only ever needed to get things notarized for specific government filings and stuff like that.

Yeah.  The green screen was awful, but otherwise I thought it was slightly better than some of the terrible episodes we've had.
