Ohmygod.

I just watched the new episode of Buffy. I'm still in shock.



I can't believe how brilliant and terrifying this episode was. I can't believe how well written and witty it was. I can't believe they killed Jonathan!

This is without a doubt the best episode since 'Once More with Feeling', and more than makes up for the lacklustre quality of most of the other episodes so far this series. Am just gobsmacked by the sheer audacity of it, setting up such a monumental (and scary) storyline, that is sure to turn the Scooby Gang's world upside down.
I absolutely loved the psychology student vampire, his dialogue was some of the best I've ever heard, and the actor was fabulous too, so non-chalant and tremendously cool. Willow's talk to 'Tara' was heartbreaking, and even though you knew things weren't what they seemed, the ending really was shocking.

And poor, poor Jonathan. I've always liked him, ever since he was just a nameless student walking through Sunnydale corridors, and somehow always ending up in the middle of the Scoobies' adventures. Why do all my favourite minor characters get killed off for no good reason? I sobbed uncontrollably when Agent Pendrell died on The X-files, he was such an adorably geekycute Scully admirer, and I always squeed with delight when he was in an episode. And then they go and shoot him for no reason at all. Why why why! It's always the geekycute ones that get bumped off too. So unfair. *sniff*

Anyway. Just wanted to rant a bit about that. I hope Buffy continues to surprise and entertain me this season.



I forgot to mention it yesterday, so please wish scarletmacaw a very happy belated birthday. *squeeeeeeeze* :)

Hmmm... I would have thought of myself as more Tolkien conservative, but I suppose my liberal nature spills over into my fanaticism. *G*

19?? *offended snort*
Do I really seem that young and immature? I do have two university degrees y'know. :-P
(Or perhaps you just think I'm a prodigy and graduated when I was 12? *grins*)

I'm game for a curry, as long as you're buying! *giggles*

And there's nothing wrong with my Neil Gaiman fixation. Nope. Nothing at all. *whistles innocently* *licks picture of Neil*
*pretends she didn't do anything and carries on whistling* ;-)
