Ah, man. A spoiler.
**sulks**

I wish I could afford the comics - always have to wait... Spoilers inevitably reach my ears.


'Angel & Faith' comic definitely worth saving up for though? (I hope so.)

[Gulftastic]

I'm enjoying it, and don't worry, it is a very mild spoiler. Thus far they haven't been mega important to the plot.

You know i MUST check that out!

Yeah i know...i really do wish we at least had a pilot/mini film or something to show what it may have been but alas.

[Josh Pinder]

yeah i have all the season 8 comics and while they arent a patch on the series (what is?) i do love reading what they may be getting up to right now ....and am saving for when season 9 is released...apparently breaking taboos again in the comic world WHEEDON

Seeing as July is usually a month for vampires (I remember reading that somewhere), I might go back and watch the first episodes of Buffy, Angel, True Blood and Being Human on DVD for fun.

Oh i love that nostalgia feel of going back to the beginning!

Everytime i rewatch Welcome To The Hellmouth i always get that buzz feeling of when i first saw it and that feeling of when each character meets etc its just....a bit indescribable really.

Hope ya get me Shawn ?

Oh i love to....but kinda bring it all forwad and re-experience it....that era of my life was just WOAH! you know?

Completely agree!

BtVS was something special.

I get what you mean about bringing it forward and re-experiencing it all again. When Buffy were on TV I was being bullied. Buffy was the "Light at the end of the tunnel."

I'd love to re-experience BtVS, all shiny and new, but in the present where my dad can't punish me by not letting me watch Buffy, and people can't tease me about being "Buffy-mad."

I'm totally re-watching it (again, for the millionth time) tonight!!

Definitely it has a timeless sheen about it as a concept and as a show it showed that all characters are key and can work as a unit to deliver the top top shows every single week.

And totally i mean when i saw it for the first time i was 5 nearly 6 years old (i had already seen the movie and loads of horror films by that point anyway but thats against the point...) so it was something very very different to the usual "what my mates were into" definitely so i loved that and its escapeism from being a kid growing up and really loving these characters from that young age till i was 12 basically! and still can re-encounter the brilliance of it.

Buffy Summers is and always will be an idol of mine for that and these characters will forever be with me

Same.

I were about nine when Buffy began. The Puppet Show was the first episode I ever watched when it was originally broadcast on Sky One.

I'm currently (re)watching Never Kill a Boy on the First Date.

"The Anointed One" really should have been known as, "The Lobotomised One."

hahaha something very annoying about that kid....ah well he met his comeuppance in School Hard

[Gulftastic]

It's almost like Joss realised what a potential pain in the backside he had created so decided to get rid asap.

[MizManiac]

Just saw this thread and decided to go get Angel S2 out! Now where's that episode with Angel in chains....

Angel is in chains in season 1 episode 3 where Spike chains him up and tortures him

But tbh he is frequently tied up
