That line wasn't right, but otherwise the writing was solid. And big with the continuity -- both plot and characterwise. The lack of that has been driving me buggy with Buffy. Unlike some people, however, i am unashamed of my abiding love for the show. Yes, this needs to be its last season, but i will not be ashamed of having loved any of it, ( Read more... )

i'm not ashamed of my love at all. i won't watch any show joss does, because i am discerning, and there are things i don't like. and i won't claim that i am not extremely disappointed with the writing and the plotting and everything else. and i won't say that i love all the episodes of both shows equally, because i don't, because some are better than others.

but i will say that even when i hate the episodes, there are only a handful out of seven years -- well, seven of buffy and four of angel -- that have bored me and only once or twice have i not been able to watch for the pain of the dialogue or bad acting.

Okay, obviously i misrepresented you. I guess i mean more that i'm not begging for the show to please die so i can have closure. There's a lot i don't like about this season, but i'm still committed to the show and really hope it gets better because when it's good it's just so amazing.

I'm curious as to which episodes you actually can't watch.

DMP was better. It had its own sort of style and humor, but it was definitely better. The only real problem I had with it was the appendage from the woman's head.

While the arc was horrid, i agree the episode itself wasn't that bad (though i still have serious issues with its ending). I meant it more as a comparison of how far along we are in the season, to remember that last season a lot of great stuff was still to come even if it didn't look it.

Fair enough. In terms of plot progression, we're definitely farther along now than last year.

I happen to be a staunch defender of DMP. I thought it was a cute, witty episode, and while I get why people didn't like it, I sure did!
