Now, why is it that my two sad little lonely posts have disappeared? I know there was some sort of glitch, and it's apparently been fixed now, but I've gone back and looked and don't see me anywhere. I was sort of hoping someone would have SOMETHING to say about my theory about Reaper really being Sahjahn - even if it was just to tell me I'm nuts! oops, channeling Angelus again.[glow=red,2,300]GAIL [/glow]

Well Angel has consistently whooping Jake 2.0 at 9 pm. I think Angel's biggest competition at 9 pm is West Wing and The Bachelor. It's also my understand that the OC will be coming back on Wednesday's at 9 pm. Not sure why the WB honchos would expect the Smallville audience to continue on with Angel, if they've never seen it. If it was reversed, I wouldn't hang on and watch Smallville at 9 pm if it followed Angel. I'm not interested in the show and thus I'd change the channel or turn the tv off. Me too. I've never seen Smallville and have no interest in seeing it. Why aren't they counting viewers who only tune in for AtS?

Dave is off to work. Techno-pagan is gone to find Spike. William the Bloody is asleep in his crypt after a long night.... and I am off to pick up photographs....
so RAE!!!!!! She's all yours!
bye folks, I'll be back later! What? Huh? What? It's like a game of Moloch TAG. Unfornately, I got kid-sitting duty for my adopted niece tonight so I won't be able to stick around to make sure HE-WHO-WILL-NOT-BE-NAMED does not muck things up again. I do have goat sacrifices on the schedule of evening activities though. Perhaps that will keep him happy until I pick HP up, get home, and log back in.

Welcome to my Wednesday night dliemma. (well, except for WW) I watch The Bachelor (yes, I like stupid reality shows) and The O.C. quickly became my new favorite show of this year. It was bad enough when FOX scheduled The O.C. for Thursday nights but now it's caused me quite a headache (yes, I have no life). I think I have it worked out where I'll be able to see all the shows. Well, we'll see how it goes Wednesday night.... This is what I do Lee. In the livingroom, at 9 pm I'm taping The Bachelor at 9 pm and then Law & Order at 10 pm. In the bedroom, I'm taping Angel (since I give the tape to my girlfriend for viewing (it's her bowling nite) then the tape will e mailed to Karalee when full). My girlfriend is Taping Westwing and we switch tapes (lol). I wasn't gonna watch The Bachelor this season, but when I heard they were bring Bob on, I had to watch. I so fell in love with him on The Bachelorette.

Jax - I didn't think of the Reaper being Sahjahn but I actually like it a lot. I have to run but I'll add more to this later.

They probably enjoyed the Spike-torture scenes, the nasty little gits, and were tearing their own hair out in frustration over Spike's heroism last night.
Is there a place on the WB site where we can post/email how much we enjoy Spike's presence on AtvS? I can't even find the show on the WB site.... [glow=red,2,300]GAIL [/glow] Not sure why you are having a hard time Gail. But go to www.thewb.comThen under shows, select Angel.

oops, channeling Angelus again.[glow=red,2,300]GAIL [/glow] Hmmm. I was told something quite similar - i.e., that the S'cubies love the N'ubies - only if they're properly cooked. ;D my bad. I gotta stop channeling W.C. Fields.

[glow=red,2,300]GAIL [/glow] Gail (and Diane and Deb) I guess I should clarify that the board isn't totally anti-Spike. There were people there defending him but nothing was getting through. They were saying stuff like "Did you see how that perverted rapist snuck into Fred's bathroom to watch her take a shower? His soul hasn't changed him a bit" There is one particular poster that hates him so much, yet every single post she makes is about him. I also read in a livejournal the other day about a site that not only rants on Spike but on JM himself. The livejournal user said she tried to calmly talk to the posters but finally gave up. She gave a link but there was no way I was going there if I wanted to sleep that night. I don't know if I should put the sites name up.

Well, I don't think it would be violating any web etiquette to name it here. would it?

I was sort of hoping someone would have SOMETHING to say about my theory about Reaper really being Sahjahn - even if it was just to tell me I'm nuts! If I remember correctly, though, didn't Sahjahn want Angel to be eliminated because of something with Connor? I can't wait for Season 3 to come out on DVD, or be repeated on TNT.

Yes you are right John. Sajahn was just pretending to have a beef with Angel. That's why Angel couldn't place him. Apparently in Sajahn's time/dimension, The Destroyer (Connor) kills him. So Sajahn came back to this Dimension to take care of him here, so he planted that false prophecy about "the father will kill the son", thus starting the domino affect that which was Season 3, bring Holtz forward, and leading to Angel being sunk to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.

You do remember correctly. He tweaked the prophecy regarding Connor eventually killing him (Sahjahn), to read "the father will kill the son" setting in motion, of course, everything after: wesley's betrayel, holtz's jump into Quor Toth, etc etc. EDIT: Damn! Betsy beat me to it. Well, I can tell you that they ARE repeating Season 3 on Sunday nights on Fox (or the WB, depending where you live). ANd the DVD comes out in February of next year.

It seems as if all of the FG (with the exception of Gunn for obvious reasons) have somewhat reverted to their pre-season 4 personas. Wesley is more in the background and not as bad-ass, Lorne seems more like the Host of Season 2, and although Fred is more assertive, she seems more like the Fred we saw in Spin the Bottle. Maybe this is because for the characters, season 4 never happened, so we don't see them in familiar roles.

Hi,Everyone!
Busy, busy, day here, but logged on quickly to try to catch up on all the wonderful and insightful postings.
Welcome to all the N'ubies! This is the BEST place for BtVS and Angel insight, for Angel reviews and essays, and we've got some great fanfic! Seat yourselves in our Thrall Room or lounge in the Hot Tub, enjoy back episodes (or current episodes), chat, and make friends.
On St. Germain - seems there are lots of CQY fans here. My favorite SG book is Out of the Life - love the combination of backstory of SG and Madelaine.
Still reeling from last night's episode. How much screen time did JM have "alone"? Wow. Still thinking about that, and just how good an actor he is. Very much able to carry the episode. Maybe there WILL yet be a Spike spin-off? (say the last three words quickly, 4 times in a row.)
In thinking about last night's ep - still loving the whole Spike/Angel on the couch. And the reaching out by Angel to Spike about Spike's poetry? Well, Angel lovers, the boy is starting to convince me; that was generous of him, very generous. He so didn't have to do that, and he so wanted to reach out, in some way, to Spike. (Hey, we all know: Angel's hair is stupid and Spike's poetry sucks.) And the expression on Spike's face when Angel admitted liking Spike's poetry? priceless. First the gratitude, then, 3 seconds later, the sarcasm and Barry Manilow statement. wonderful. (Is there any doubt why Barry Manilow's initials are BM?)
(ducks to avoid grape tomatoes, popcorn, and empty soda cans being thrown in the Thrall Room)
And, questions about how Spike would know about BM? Easy: he's been listening to conversations for months at W&H; he's been visiting Angel's apartment and reviewing all the treasures there. I'm sure he would've loved to see the Clash, the Ramones, Billy Idol, and the Sex Pistols on CD there - but knew there'd be Mantovani, BM, and probably an "edgy" Michael Bolton. Jeesh. Angel has terrible musical taste and terrible taste in poetry. That he can read Sartre, but listen to Manilow? He is truly a complicated guy. ;D
Wonder what Angel's favorite TV show would be? Forever Knight? nah. Superman - with George Reeves.
Wonder what Spike's favorite TV show would be - except for Passions? ahh.. Monty Python, right?
okay... quiet now.
