I feel the same way about "The Pack" episode that most people feel about "I Robot, You Jane." I'm not sure I have a legitimate reason for hating it so much, I just...do. When we get to it in our rewatch, be sure to tell me why you like it so much! Maybe I'll get it this time. :)sunbunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08553429350476841139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-39682841451244896352013-05-02T17:16:46.036-04:002013-05-02T17:16:46.036-04:00I have to make a correction.

The rest -- even the kiss between Spike and Captain Jack (although effective on a visceral level) -- did nothing for me with the exception of the CAPTAIN JACK HARKNESS episode. <br /><br />Hey Billie! <br /><br />I have a general question: is it ok to present what we thought of the episodes when we first watched them, be it from their original airing or after? <br /><br />BUFFY is the one of the few TV shows (along with SCOOBY-DOO, DARK SHADOWS, V: THE FINAL BATTLE, BUCK ROGERS IN THE 25TH CENTURY, FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE SERIES, FARSCAPE, LOST and TRUE BLOOD) that I still recall my initial reaction to individual episodes from the first time I watched them.

If I'd been watching it on TV, I probably would have given up on it. I was watching it on DVD though and I was promised it would get better, so I persevered, and I'm happy I did so :-) <br /><br />The first episode I thought was pretty good was Lie To Me. The ambiguous bad guy and the melancholic ending was when I first saw a real promise in the show.Michal Dvorakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09047652605478282288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-58439319381912306712013-04-28T20:52:56.169-04:002013-04-28T20:52:56.169-04:00"Mostly because Sunbunny is there."
Eve..."Mostly because Sunbunny is there."<br /><br />Every time I see her nickname I picture myself a smiling hare on a sunny day. The kind that looks like Watership Down, but on a much better mood.<br /><br />Community : pull the plug please. Although I confess and admit that at least 2 moments on last Thursday's ep surprised me and made me LOL. Echoes from the Harmon past...But too little, too late. Such a pity for such an extraordinary show (first 3 seasons of course).<br /><br />For those of you who love Revolution, well, yay. I should be happy for Parenthood (and Lauren Graham, who finally lost her "label" as "show killer") but this family is not easy to endure (hence, kudos for the ENTIRE cast for their excellent acting).<br /><br />..."longer seasons..."<br /><br />Ah ! The eternal debate between quality and quantity. And yes, too much is not necessarily a good thing. That's the way the Brits do it and I agree with this philosophy. Never (or rarely) a dull moment in Dexter's seven season and Fringe's (shortened) fifth. (As you know, I love In Plain Sight, and 8 ep's in the last season wasn't enough, as a fan and because some story arcs felt a bit rushed.)<br /><br />1963, a darn good year ! (at last for the Doctor and those born that year...)<br /><br />LOL for the cat ears. Oh ! My former boss (and colleagues) would have had a lot of fun if I had a pair ! I can picture you Billie : mostly black all day, then suddenly turning pink of joy when you get a good comment on this site!<br /><br />celticmarchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06018881585193380762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-60119644090923632482013-04-28T14:01:41.473-04:002013-04-28T14:01:41.473-04:00Excited for the Buffy rewatch! School Hard was the...Excited for the Buffy rewatch! School Hard was the turning point for me - it's interesting how a character like Spike can make a show better, even for the episodes/seasons he's not in.<br /><br />Same thing for Captain Jack on Doctor Who. His first two episodes made me a fan of the show. While I'm sad he won't be back for the anniversary, I think it's better that they won't be bringing everyone possible back, a la The Stolen Earth/Journey's End. With that, at least they had two episodes so it didn't feel as crowded, with the anniversary episode, they only have one.<br /><br />I don't think Doctor Who is going downhill. The episodes feel a little different, but these are the first ones I'm getting to watch as they air, so there's now a week between episodes of pondering and nitpicking that I didn't have before. Cold War was definitely the low point of this half of series 7, but I've thought all the rest of the episodes were somewhere between pretty great and exceptionally brilliant.<br /><br />And please, not a female Doctor (and Sophia Myles had too iconic of an episode to appear again). I'm hoping Matt will stick around for series 8 because I think he's still doing an amazing job of balancing the broken old man with the crazy child.Katie Hart - Pinterest Managerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892763965326103296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-73620549795532268562013-04-28T13:30:41.349-04:002013-04-28T13:30:41.349-04:00D'Angelo from the Wire on The walking dead..gr...D'Angelo from the Wire on The walking dead..great news..he really brought something extra to the Wire. <br />AnnaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-5858125649047759072013-04-28T12:39:28.267-04:002013-04-28T12:39:28.267-04:00So excited for Buffy re-watch!

But I do remember watching Buffy from the beginning and my friend telling me that the turning point would come in the 2nd season...when I watched School Hard, I thought THAT was the turning point.

That said, I was hooked at School Hard with Spike.CHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-85635377626400973902013-04-28T12:00:28.135-04:002013-04-28T12:00:28.135-04:00I'm about done with Revenge..if it doesn't...I'm about done with Revenge..if it doesn't improve for the finale I'm out. <br />The showrunner leaving is either good or terrible news..can't decide.<br />A female doctor?

Lawrence Gilliard Jr. was so fantastic on <i>The Wire</i>, and yet he hasn't done a whole lot since. I'm excited for what he could bring to TWD, and I'm hopeful that if he gets killed off too soon, the exposure he gets on such a massively popular show leads him to more higher profile work. He's really talented and deserves to be seen more.Jess Lyndehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14165015932507376656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-85881603526228159112013-04-28T11:31:27.602-04:002013-04-28T11:31:27.602-04:00Buffy re-watch!
