"Willow doesn't live here anymore."
| My levels of Buffy-focus tend to fluctuate.
One day I will be totally focused on all things Buffy. I walk around school humming "Rest In Peace" or "I've Got a Theory," and I quote my favorite lines. I discuss the scholarly aspects of the show with colleagues who also have an appreciation for the story development, the character arcs, and the essential metaphors of the show. The next day, I have Buffy-ed myself out. The pattern tends to follow that the high end of the fluctuations tends to come when there is something going on in the Buffyverse. Currently, I am riding high on the latest wave of Buffy-goodness. On Tuesday, the Buffy Season 6 DVD set was released, containing two of my favorite episodes of the show. First, "Once More, With Feeling" (better known as Buffy the Musical) is included in the set, in its entirety. OMWF is one of the only episodes of the show that I can honestly watch over and over again and never get tired of. The second episode of season 6 that is absolutely amazing is "Tabula Rasa," which just so happens to be the episode that aired the week after the musical epsiode, and for this reason, is often overlooked. "Tabula Rasa" manages to be one of the funniest, yet, most heart-breaking episodes of Buffy ever created. Written by Rebecca Rand Kirshner, this show is a work of art, painfully depicting the disintegration of several key relationships on the show, while at the same time, becoming one of the most hilarious episodes ever as Willow's "Forget" spell goes awry and Buffy and the Scoobies lose their memories. I will never again hear Michelle Branch's "Goodbye to You" without thinking of this episode, and the images of Alyson Hannigan sitting on the floor in tears, and Tony Head sitting on an airplane back to England. Randy Giles?!? Why didn't you just call me 'Horny Giles,' or 'Desperate for a Shag Giles?!?' ~Memory-loss Spike Also, let's not forget that one of the greatest things about season 6 was, of course, Evil Veiny Willow. She was awesome. Very good at being bad. Ok, so that ends my plug of the new Buffy discs. However, I would also like to point out to the casual observer that this week's issue of TV Guide contains their list of the 25 Best Cult Shows ever. Buffy checks in at #3 on the list, behind only Star Trek and The X-Files. Not such bad company to be in... ¶ Ξ PDawg Composed at 8:44:00 AM |

F.Y.I.
| I have just realized that it's a 6-song drive to work for me. This morning's randomization on my mp3 player was as follows:
Chrome-Plated Heart by Melissa Etheridge Lose Control by James Shout by Tears for Fears Keeper of My Heart by Indigo Girls Wanted by the Cranberries Moment of Forgiveness by Indigo Girls And, the partial 7th song as I parked my car... Music by Madonna. I knew you wanted to know. ¶ Ξ PDawg Composed at 9:19:00 AM |

GUILTY PLEASURE #42
| So, after a discussion with a buddy today, I am going to admit something here, on my blog:
I LOVE the Sandra Bullock movie, Miss Congeniality. Love. It. Loveit. Ok, so here's my favorite line: That would be harsher punishment for parole violators, Stan ..................... and, world peace! So, what's your favorite line, if you have one, and you are willing to admit it.... ¶ Ξ PDawg Composed at 6:18:00 PM |
