Your family rocks. I love your mom reading HP 6 to your father in the car and getting upset at the end. And I love the seriousness discussion about Angelina Jolie.
I know! Aren't they so cool? I have to convince my brothers to watch Firefly. They sneer at Buffy because it's called Buffy, but they would be more open to Ff. I got it for Xmas and so my whole family was there when we started watching it, and my older brother wandered in during the first two eps and was ROPED IN even though he didn't want to be. But he had to go so didn't get to see the rest.
hee! I loved reading about you and your family watching Bones together! I like that your dad was fixated on DB because that's totally how I watch the show!
*Goodman!voice smut* *Brennan/Angela* because ZOMG, it should be written Agreed, it MUST be written!
yeah, Bad Eggs IS a lame ep. Sometimes it's vaguely upsetting--I hate his Cordy and X/C bashing. I don't like when people character bash like that either (especially Cordy & X/C who I adore!). Re the Bad Eggs thing: over the years I've developed a real love for the episode despite of, or maybe because of, it's lameness. It's this totally ridiculous episode right before the brilliance of "Surpise" and "Innocence". I have such a weird affection for it that I'm thinking of writing an "In defense of Bag Eggs" post for fun.
And my dad totally things that Angel and Spike slept together, and was trying to help me convince my mom. Except he doesn't think that they boinked a lot. He thinks they maybe tried it once or twice and I'm like oh please. COME ON!
Ha! I would read an "In defense of Bad Eggs" post. In both BtVS/AtS I differentiate between real plot eps and "filler" eps. What surprised me from the beginning about both shows was how much I enjoyed the filler eps, even though they had stupid monsters of the week and oft times lame premises. There so often seemed to be little twists and just the sheer funness of the dialogue make them cool. But "Bad Eggs" is one that just always annoyed me.
Yes. "Bad Eggs" was super lame. In every way. I agree with you on the redemptive qualities of many eps--at some point, the character interaction and stuff will carry you through--but once in awhile there's a stinker.

And I love both Cordy and X/C too!
