UGH, your crack ships were genius!!
Cybermen/Dalek love <3 Fabulous.
CHEESE MAN!!! I LOL'd so much!

Your top five songs are lovely. 'Singing in the rain' sort of made my childhood... I just fell in love with the characters, and the songs and the way it looked and it was totally totally lovely. 'Good Morning' as a piece of music, and that choreography. LOVE IT.

OH, and your musicals!! 'Cabaret' is all sorts of fantastic. It's sort of dark and sexy and cynical and fun and hopeful and twisted and everything. It is one of my favourite films ever.
Ugh. And Liza?? She is just perfection.

Oh, and the Dollhouse episodes. YAY.
Obvs, I totally agree with your first choice. For me, Topher having gone insane and Adelle comforting him was just heatbreaking, Whiskey's death was beautiful and haunting, and those final moments when they looked over everyone's photographs, was just... ugh, it was so sad and beautiful and yeah...
'Briar Rose'-- it was really Tudyk that did it for me. He was fantastic. Like, first of all you were laughing at him, and just seeing him as this neurotic, funny, but ultimately kind of... erm... irrelevant, you know? He was there, and you did not expect his part to be that huge, and then WOAH. That transformation. Alan is kind of why I love 'Omega' so much. He is just amazing as he grapples with whatever's going on inside his head.

AND BUFFY!!!
Ugh, I love my fandom sometimes.
'Doppelgangland' is one of my favourites... Seriously. I just love it. And I love Vampy Willow, and regular Willow and OZ and Angel's reaction to her death and then seeing her alive. HILARIOUS. Yeah, it is fantastic.
'Becoming' is just heartbreaking, Everything about it. But for me, personal highlight, is the Xander/Willow/Oz-ness of the episode. UGH. *I may need to watch this again*
'Once more with feeling' is just brilliant. Like, I can't talk about it because I'll go on and on and you won't shut me up.

LOL, I really had to limit myself with these comments. haha XD

yay, and yes. also yes to what you said about the choreography. even as i got older and found don more than a little bit chauvinistic, i couldn't ever really hate gene kelly. because of the dancing. and, you know, because i love gene kelly. : )

Whiskey's death was beautiful and haunting
okay, now i have to ask. did whiskey actually die? for some reason i just thought she went back into sleeping/unconscious mode. oh man, if she died that makes the episode about 50x sadder. meh.

He is just amazing as he grapples with whatever's going on inside his head.
definitely!

i love your comments!

For me, Cosmo made that film for me. XD
Donald O'Connor was just fantabulous ^_^ I love him, and 'Moses Supposes' and 'Make em laugh' are some of my favourite numbers. Ever.

Oh see... Hmm... I thought she did. But now I'm not sure. =/ Ugh. lmao. Maybe I'll do some research. >_<

That's one of my favourite moments of the entire season!!!

I don't know if she dies or not, but someone just rang me with a theory that the reason she won't leave the dollhouse is because Langton said he would come back for her. Which, while I'm not sure if it's true (the details of what they can remember etc., have always alluded me), it is an extrememly beautiful and just so sadidea.

i got that impression, too, and totally loved it.
...although whiskey probably also stayed in the dollhouse via some homing mechanism for actives in their doll state? maybe?

Exactly. There was probably some very logical reason she stayed there. But my heart knows it was for Langton. haha!
