Will a stranger do the right thing?
Wowsa. Perfect real-life example. Sad. As an English major I like to think scientists don't make mistakes like this. Actually, I count on it.
Yes, I guess they're recycling. It was a great comment, holds up over the long haul.
Geez. My aunt was murdered in 1937 in New Jersey. All this time later, the family still can't really talk about it. If her photo appeared in a spread like this, the family would be beyond upset. Time does not mitigate the horrors for a crime victim.
Great analysis. I was just going to say this is the only item I want. Asset enhancement, for sure.
SECONDED.
Totes. This was also so Cherlike
I was nodding my head eagerly at everything you wrote. You described well why this show probably isn't the one to hook a noobie with. But for those who love the show it advances so many stories and also has that blend of humor/horror/gravitas/downearthedness that we love about Buffy.
ROFL! Your brother gets major life points for that.
Wow, you wrote that so compellingly I want to vote for it and haven't even seen it.
I'm glad you managed to scrape up your brains and put them back in your head because I loved this post. Land of the Lost, yeah! The best part was the special effects were cheesy for even back then, and that made it even more fun.
So glad somebody include The Avengers. (Y'know, when all the hype about the movie started, for just a brief second there I thought Joss was finally doing the Avengers right, not the Avengers, y'know? Hated that film...) Before there was ever a Buffy there was a Mrs. Peel, and John Steed was the coolest spy around…
OK, that's what I thought. He went floating off in his ship and we weren't sure what would happen to him. Yeah, that's why I really kept expecting him in the movie. Thanks for setting me straight. So many plots, so little brain....
The short answers are, you should watch it front to back, it's the greatest show on TV, created by all sorts of brilliant people who went on to do other brilliant things, and the characters become like personal friends who will stay with you for life. I mean, I could write a 100-page thesis about why Buffy rocks, but…
You sure do know how to release the passionate geek in everyone, Charlie Jane. Good post!
It set a high bar. But "Islanded in a Stream of Stars" comes immediately to mind. And all the Daybreaks were great. Oh and "The Eye of Jupiter" was pretty awesome. And that finale blew me away. I don't care how much Ronald D. Moore regrets that cameo, it thrilled the geek in me.
OK, thanks, you answered that. Yes, I wanted him to survive and be in the movie!
I really loved that episode, too! Good call. Did Jubel die? I can't even remember. I don't think so, because I kept expecting him to appear in the movie, but he didn't. So maybe he DID die. A memory is a terrible thing to forget. Praise the Universe that Netflix is always there for me, baby....
