this is a really common complaint about sherlock, especially. i think there's something wrong with the sound in this show.

season one was a lot of fun and it involved a lot of shenanigans while buffy struggled to deal with her new calling and new high school. i'm kind of biased toward beginnings, idk.

i forgot about the early-warning cramps!

i guess i get it from his pov. this was his creation that got snipped and distorted over his objections right to his face. i'd be bitter, too. buffy fans, though? like, this is where it all started! how can you not feel at least a little reverence for it?

also taken into account with later whedon characters, the tiny, waif-like ass-kicker becomes evidence of something of a fetish. in the movie, buffy is a cheerleader with a gymnastics background, so it makes sense that she'd have some muscle tone.

as much as i loved firefly, cancelling so early was a good decision. it stayed gold. many, many shows should quit while they're ahead, but instead drag on interminably while everything that was unique and special is replaced by formulas and contrivances.

i went to high school with a myrtle. anything is workable with the right mindset.

i agree, it makes no sense. joyce doesn't ever justify naming her daughter after an uppercrust caricature from caddyshack, does she?

yeah, i'm a fan of firefly, but not a Fan. i love the show, but i think if it hadn't been cancelled it would've gotten overwrought and up joss's ass. kinda like buffy and angel did!

the movie has a special place in my heart. sure, after the series, it looks like shallow crap, and i am intrigued to read joss's original script, but when it came out, it was different and new. a fun, slightly scary girl-power horror-comedy with the world's first immersion in whedonesque dialogue.

i saw john boyega talk about trying his natural accent for finn and it coming off wrong, but to me, it'd make more sense than going american. the empire is mostly staffed by brits and, due to casting temuera morrison as jengo fett, the clone troopers had a new zealand accent.

don't forget j'onn, another stealth brit

then walter from arrow is a black brit played by a black brit, which brings us all full circle i guess

zero snark intended, just so you know

from the same paragraph you're referring to
Because of that, the trajectory of Spike wasn’t the smooth kind of
trajectory of a normal dramatic character. It was a winding road that
was always surprising, but because Joss and the rest of the writers were
so good, it all stitched together into one believable journey. But…

i love him for picking angel over spike. basically all the responses nicholas brendon gave that felt a little off, james marsters knocked out of the park. he sounds like he's loves acting and loves the process and many of the people involved with it.

i don't hate spike, but i agree that his development was not the pristine, perfectly organic and satisfying marvel that marsters makes it out to be. they got a little up their own ass with his character.

after the way she exited the buffyverse, i wouldn't blame charisma carpenter if she politely declined all invitations to revisit this time in her life.

not to mention juliet landau as drusilla

lmao what was angel & spike's argument about, caveman vs astronaut? i LOVED them together. and harmony being there already was the icing on the cake.
