Cleared out a 2003 tape. It began with an ‘Odyssey 5’ ep ‘Rage’ in which the gang of idiots do stuff with prehistoric technology. People have rage attacks and this was non-gratifying.
Then came a season 7 ‘Buffy The Vampire Slayer’ ep ‘Him’ in which everything looks buttery. This was another example of the circular crap that exemplified season 7. And this was a presumptuous remake of a season 2 episode to boot. This had way too much Dawn and sucked hard. Why are Buffy, Xander and willow hanging out in a teen club?
Best Lines:
“You just gonna go down to the docks, wait for the fleet to come in?”
“Anna-Nicole Smith thinks you look tacky.”
Then came a season 4 ‘Angel’ episode ‘Supersymmetry’ that is all about Fred and her trait of bringing men own. I decline to care. TPTB were insistent that we love Fred. No.
Finally there was the final ever ‘Odyssey 5’ ep ‘Fossil’. This show never knew populism and watching it one can see why. There is bitter gloom as ugly boring Angela vanishes and the gang of idiots swear and scream in response. Chuck talks in his disarming down home, homespun wisdom. The truth about Bright Sky and the Cadre is revealed making the gang of idiots look even dumber. A woman talks about the moon being artificial and sub-audible moon rocks. Mendel is arrested. Twists are flung at the screen. But since the show was cancelled; there is nothing to care about.
Best Lines:
“Suffocated my wife, tried to steal my goddam mind, hooked you on drugs.”
“Almost made me believe in God.”
“They’re not people.”
