Hank Kingsley Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 ...and then the ending is so depressing, with Tara and Giles leaving. "Goodbye to You" was a perfect song to use, though.
Cavi Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 Along with what Mole said, it was mentioned in a few interviews that Alyson didn't want to sing any lines at all in OMWF, but she eventually gave in and did those few. And speaking of her, she and Alexis got married this past weekend. Congrats to them. She has also signed on for an NBC sitcom due next fall. Let's hope that actually sees its way onto the schedule, unlike Nick Brendon's Fox comedy. Cheeseman in Superstar's sig! Nice.
Mecha Mummy Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 TABULA RASA IS ON~! Everyone is gold. Spike: "Randy Giles?! Might as well have just named me Horny Giles or Desperate-for-a-Lay Giles!" I like when Spike lists off a whole bunch of British slang words... "Oh god, I'm British!"
BlackFlagg Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 Missed that epi, guess I'll have to catch it in the morning, heh. Just watched Smashed, Buffy and Spike's rather violent sex scene....and Xander used Angel's nickname for Spike, Captain Peroxide, heh
Mole Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 Let's hope that actually sees its way onto the schedule, unlike Nick Brendon's Fox comedy. Nick inked a deal with Fox? I missed that one... "Tabula Rasa" is one of my favorite episodes, comedy all around.
Hank Kingsley Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 And Nick's so talented, too! I really hope he can find something to work with.
Cavi Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 Let's hope that actually sees its way onto the schedule, unlike Nick Brendon's Fox comedy. Nick inked a deal with Fox? I missed that one... He filmed a pilot for them called The Pool At Maddy Breakers, but they didn't pick it up.
Guest El Satanico Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 Since this is where you buffy marks hang out...The mayor is on NBC on that Las Vegas show. er...I mean he's on the episode showing now.
LaParkaMarka Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 I mark for Mayor Wilkins. He was my favorite Buffy villian, narrowly edging out Angelus. They should get a sitcom together. And yes, I am aware that it would make no sense.
RavishingRickRudo Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 He also played the Gayest Character in Star Trek history... and you have to be pretty darn gay to be able to do that.
Mole Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 Since this is where you buffy marks hang out...The mayor is on NBC on that Las Vegas show. er...I mean he's on the episode showing now. Is that the Casino one?
Mole Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 Preview for October 22nd show "Hellbound" Spoiler (Highlight to Read): Spike encounters phantoms threatening to send him to hell, including an 18th century serial killer; Fred searches for a way of restoring Spike to his corporeal self.
RavishingRickRudo Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 Silly Mole, this isn't an Angel thread.
Mole Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 Silly Mole, this isn't an Angel thread. Right, it's the RRR is the shit thread.
LaParkaYourCar Posted October 15, 2003 Report Posted October 15, 2003 Holy crap the scenes of Angel and Wesley dancing at the end of "She" were hilarious!! (It was the episode on TNT today)
Ravenbomb Posted October 15, 2003 Report Posted October 15, 2003 yeah, I watched the credits like 3 times ah...hilarium...
Cavi Posted October 15, 2003 Report Posted October 15, 2003 That dancing does own. I was watching "Ground State" on TNT last night. So weaksauce that it's not in widescreen. At one point, half of poor Fred's head was like cut by the screen.
Hank Kingsley Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Partial Marsters nudity next week on Angel. The episode looks good, but uh...
Guest stardust Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 I can't say I'll complain about the partial Marsters nudity next week *grin* but it does look like a good episode. Anyone spot the Lucha in tonight's ep? He was in one scene about four times, just walking around in the background (it's like "Where's Waldo," except it's "Spot the Lucha"). Also, the whole eating the werewolf for dinner thing was quite disturbing, but it reminded me of a short story I had to read back in high school, but for the life of me I can't remember what that story was.
Cavi Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Next week's episode looks freaky, but pimp. Looking forward to it.
Mole Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Tonight's episode was alright, but nothing too special. I think basically they are setting up the love story with the chick and Angel. Next week looks gansta though. Any Spike episode is fine by me.
Jingus Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Tonight's episode: meh. They did the werewolf thing ad nauseum with Oz, and certainly didn't add anything new or interesting with the generic blond lycanthrope here tonight. Angel's "solution" to getting out of the restaurant was weak. I don't know if he's supposed to be getting soft or corrupted or what, but the old Angel would've burned the place to the fucking ground, not just mosey on out and leave the cannibals in peace. Furthermore, Spike had about five or six lines in the entire show, and the whole "disappearing to Hell" thing with him is getting pretty old, pretty fast. They better do something to mix up the plot next week. And where the FUCK was Harmony? She MADE the last two episodes, and she was completely absent tonight. Also, where was the new Lilah-wannabe chick? Way to Russo off that plot thread, guys. Really crappy show overall.
Vyce Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 I agree that this week's episode was rather mediocre. Next week's looks rather smashing though. Anyone think we could possibly see a Fred / Spike romance?
Guest stardust Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Vyce, it's looking like there's definitely the possibility for a Fred/Spike romance, but knowing Joss and co., it might not be leading to that at all.
Cavi Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 And where the FUCK was Harmony? She MADE the last two episodes, and she was completely absent tonight. Also, where was the new Lilah-wannabe chick? Way to Russo off that plot thread, guys. I believe Mercedes McNab only signed on for six episodes, so she won't be around much. I also heard the same is true for the Eve actress.
Guest EQ Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Eve is hot. She should be in more episodes. I liked the warewolf girl. I wouldn't mind seeing her again (it would be cool if in 4 weeks, she has a cameo in the episode where she comes to W&H and Angel takes her down to her cage ... like what Oz in Buffy). I don't think she'll end up being an important character on the show, but she's not dead and she's not a normal human anymore... so that pretty much guarantees she'll be back (or at least mentioned).
RavishingRickRudo Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 The Good.. Blondie. Yeah, horrible acting and stuff, but some really, really, nice eye candy... good lord some very nice eye candy. Boy was it cold in one scene I'd tap it. "What are you, like some sort of Frankenstein" "What?... No" Fred talking to Blondie about her 5 year stay, I liked it cause I was thinkin about it at the same time. That was pretty funny as well, cause it's so over-the-top, as well as "Angel with a soul" deal. But then she didn't continue along the same thought-process of her blocking herself away from the world, and how that only hurt her.. and how she knew what isolation was like. Spike's "history" with Wes. They should have him try that with everyone and have everyone call his bullshit. The Doctor-dude... that doctor-dude is the doctor-dude on Star Trek: Enterprise!! YEAH! DADDY! I was comparing Buffy with Star Trek like a week or two ago! YEAH! I don't watch Enterprise so I didn't really MARK OUT like I should have, but I still kinda did!! YEAH! I'm kinda sad to see him go. And that "Oh, he took the juice" bit, fuck that. I ain't havin that. They shouldn't mess with Lornes readings; they did last year and it sucked. Fuck Cordy. The Bad This doesn't feel like Angel anymore. The end, with the fucking david gray-esque music (or it was, infact, david gray) had a whole After-School Special feel to it that made me want to puke. I thought it might be a dream, or just fucking with us, and the real ended had the warewolf fucking everything up proper, but it was just fucking hugs and chinese food... what the fuck? There's not really enough pressure on the season, I miss the big bads. I miss the giganto story-arcs. This is so fucking season one, and I already seen Season 1... Season 5 of Buffy had all the kinks worked out, all the characters established, and then played with it. Now we're getting all this new shit. Fuck that shit.
Cavi Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 Yeah, I didn't care for the music bit at the end. Sure, Joss did that a few times back in the early Buffy days, but this just didn't work like those did.
LaParkaYourCar Posted October 16, 2003 Report Posted October 16, 2003 I thought the episode was okay. These early season episodes are sometimes a little weak. But next week looks messed up...graphic images and partial nudity??? Wow that's a first for Whedon shows.
