Also, for Oct. 20 both stations are listing "Out of Sight, Out of Mind" (i.e., "Invisible Girl") as the episode that will be shown that day. First rerun of the season if that is correct. (And not even an episode from this season.) The official Buffy web site shows no episode for Oct. 13 and "Reptile Boy" for Oct. 20. Scott, what's going on??

I too fall into the hated Oz on first sight group. Though I'm having a hard time coming up with a reason why. And the jealousy thing hits just a little too close to home to be correct :) Willow is just so ... I don't know how to say it but sweet, cute, intelligent, funny, caring are a good beginning. Willow's man should be perfect too. Frankenstein Jr from SAR seemed a much more likely choice. More Willow's type. I'm hoping that Oz chases after Willow but she doesn't reciprocate. For the record I don't think Xander deserves Willow either. I on the other hand would be a perfect candidate ... well for Aly that is ...

Still, this is a discussion list for the SHOW, not the people on the list. >obBuffy: Did anyone else notice the weird atmospherical similarities in the museum to the ones in the zoo in The Pack? You mean in that cheerfully depressing sort of way? Not to mention both shows had at least one not too bright, obnoxious tough guy. Though, I liked the guy from IMG. Even HE appreciated Willow more then Xander. As much as I'd like to see an X/W pairing, I'm getting to the point where I think Willow should spend some time dating others, till Xander grows up a bit. Or a lot. Oz seems like a good place to start.

I've just joined the list about a week ago, and am finished slogging thru all the mail. You all like to talk, don't ya? :) Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Monica, and I've been watching Buffy ever since it premiered. I loved it to death, and it has since joined my other obsessions. I've also seen the movie, and I thought it was okay. I only watched it because I have a thing for vampires. :) But the series is my favorite show right now. I love all the eps, and have been trying to get my friends hooked as well. It seems to be working. OBBUFFY: I read that several people here thought that Dru might have been a slayer before she was turned. I think this would be a great idea! It would be a chance to explore what might happen if Buffy ever had her nightmare come true, and would also give Buffy a little pause for thought if she finds out. Imagine having to fight someone who used to be just like you. Anyway, sorry this message was a little long. I'll try to keep them shorter in the future.

If someone has brought this up already, please forgive me. :) s p o i l e r s p a c e OK, it seems to me that Xander went thru a really FAST personnality change. In the infamous kiss scene with the mummy girl, he's amazed that she actually values him -- then, when he bravely saves Willow, he tells the mummy that if she wants to steal someone's life, it'll hafta be his. He arrogantly asks: "Can you do that?" (or something of the type), like he's assuming that she, being so totally in love with him, will be unable to kill him. He was _really_ surprised when she tried, tho!!! So our dear friend Xander went from poor self-esteem to slightly egotistical.... Am I the only one who noticed this?

My friends and I used to run around screaming this in bad Australian accents at each other. Especially when somebody lost something - somebody would always put on that bad accent and scream "Maybe a dingo et your _____." Which, for us, is what made that Seinfeld reference so funny - we'd been doing the same thing for ages. Then, years later, my husband and I moved out here to Washington. He was working as a teacher at a middle school here, and made the reference one day while at work. Turns out that the woman that the story was based on actually *lives* in the area, she moved here a few years after the whole incident, and her child had attended the school where my husband worked the year before he got there. Small world, huh? Anyway, so far this has had nothing to do with Buffy, so let me add some things: RE: Oz I don't know what some people saw that made them hate him so much. I was LOL at "No, the eskimo." Here I was thinking we was eyeing Mummy Girl, totally expecting him to get the Kiss of Death next, and it turns out he's scoping out Willow the whole time! And it was really nice to see her get the attention she deserves. Sure, I don't want to see her have the guy's kids or anything, I would love to see her with Xander, but darn it all, I want to see the man twist first! Serves him right for treating her like a chewed-up pen! RE: Giles and Buffy in the coffin I sent my comments on this scene to the GASP list already, but I know all of you non-GASPers are waiting with baited breath for them (yeah, sure you are) so here you go: (All GASPers can stop reading here.) I, too, noticed that Buffy and Giles seemed to be getting a little... um... *close* in that sarcopha... sarcophe... sarcofe... er, coffin. But it seemed like Giles was unconcious the whole time (again!) so there couldn't have been all that much going on. Although, had he been awake, I can imagine all sorts of "um"ing and "ah"ing and general discomfort on his part, coupled with (um, maybe a bad choice of words there :P) Buffy completely ignoring the whole issue in her attempt to get out. And, hey, how was there room for her to hit/kick so hard? Must've gotten very cramped in there. :P And while we're at it, I wonder what Joyce would've said if she had caught Giles in Buffy's bedroom? I can't imagine how my mom would've reacted if she'd ever seen me going up to my room with some ultra-hot librarian from school. As if! Sooner or later someone's going to start suspecting something, and I don't mean that she's the Slayer. I keep expecting Snyder to say something to Giles about how he seems to be spending way too much time with that Summers girl. Now wouldn't that be a plot twist?

I say, think of me as your judge, jury, and executioner. PS-On the one hand, Buffy hasn't stabbed a horticulture teacher with a trowel. Sh-I didn't stab anyone with a trowel. They were pruning shears. PS-On the other hand, Sheila has never burned down a school building. B-Well, that was never proven. The fire marshal said it could have been mice. PS-Mice. B-Mice that were smoking? PS-The two of you seem to be tied in the class-cutting and fight-starting events. You really are neck-and-neck. It's quite exciting. Sh-What does the winner get? PS-Expelled. PS-Your parents - assuming you have any, will meet your teachers - assuming you have any left. PS-Are we clear? B-I'm clear. Don't you feel clear? We're very clear. B-That's what my mom sees when she looks at me - a Sheila. X-Sheila's definitely intense. That guy with her - that's the one she _can_ bring home to mother. W-She was already smoking in fifth grade. Once I was lookout for her. X-You're bad to the bone. W-I'm a rebel. B-I'm a Slayer. It requires a certain amount of cutting and fighting. What's Sheila's excuse? X-Homework. She won't do it. And most teachers respect that now. Oh, you might want to keep away any sharp implements when you're working with her. X-As long as nothing really bad happens between now and then, you'll be fine. B-Are you crazy?! Why did you say that? Now something bad's going to happen. X-What do you mean? Nothing's going to happen. W-Not until some dummy says, "As long as nothing bad happens." B-It's the ultimate jinx. W-What were you thinking? Or were you even thinking at all? X-Well, you guys don't know. Maybe this time it'll be different. S-Home, sweet home. Vamp-When I kill her, it'll be the greatest event since the crucifixion. And I should know. I was there. S-_You_ were there? Oh, please! If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock. Vamp-I ought to rip your throat out. S-I was actually at Woodstock. That was a weird gig. I fed off a flower person, and I spent the next six hours watching my hand move. S-So, who do you kill for fun around here? A1-Who _are_ you? S-Do you know what I found works real good with Slayers? Killing them. A1-Can you? S-A lot faster than nancy-boy there. Yeah, I did a couple Slayers in my time. I don't like to brag. Who am I kidding? I _love_ to brag! D-Look at all the people. Are these nice people? S-We're getting along. D-Do you like daisies? I plant them, but they always die. Everything I put in the ground withers and dies. S-Me and Dru, we're moving in. Now, any of you want to test who's got the biggest wrinklies around here, step on up. D-Kill her for Princess? S-I'll chop her into messes. D-You are my sweet, my little Spike. B-I spent a good part of my allowance on this new creme rinse, and it's neither creamy nor rinsey. J-Life is hard, dear. B-Don't I know it. Is that a split end? J-So, what do you think your teachers are going to tell me about you? B-Well, I think they'll all agree that I always bring a pen to class, ready to absorb the knowledge. J-And this absorption rate, how is it reflected in your homework and test scores? B-What can you really tell about a person from a test score? J-Whether or not she's ever going out with her friends again. B-Oh, that. J-Wait until you get a job. B-I have a job. W-Sheila's a no-show? She goes to this really rank bar, the Fish Tank. Sometimes they have raids and other stuff that could make you tardy. W-I thought we were going to the Bronze tonight. 'Cause of how you thought Angel might show? X-If he does, he'll meet some other nice girl. Studying comes first! B-We're going to the Bronze. B-I can study and party and do parent/teacher night and make my mother proud, as long as I don't have to... G-Buffy! B-...fight vampires. MC-Rupert, you have got to read something that was published after 1066. G-This Saturday is the night of St. Vigeous. B-Let me guess - he didn't make balloon animals. B-Well, if I survive parent/teacher night tomorrow, I'll see what I can do about Saturday. G-You're being a tad flip, don't you think? This is serious. B-And getting kicked out of school is laughs aplenty? B-If my slaying doesn't get me expelled, then I promise my banner-making won't get me killed, okay? X-Yeah, I'll whittle stakes. W-And I can research stuff. X-And while I'm whittling, I plan to whistle a jaunty tune. G-You are, after all, the slay... MC- G-Slay... uh, slaves. You're all slaves to the, uh, television. MC-Yes.

Sh-Did you really burn down a school building one time? B-Well, not actually _one_ time. Sh-Cool! B-Was it wrong? Should I use the plural? W-No. But you said, "The cow should touch me from Thursday." B-Maybe that's what I was feeling. W-And you said it wrong. B-Oh, je stink! W-You're just not focused. It's Angel missage. X-Come on, one dance. You've been studying like 12 minutes?

She's going to ask Xander what happened to this exchange student that Joyce is presumably responsible for. "She was eaten by wild dogs" or "The gang members on PCP got her" would not be accepted very calmly. Joyce would be pressing Xander for full details, she'd call South America to tell Ampata's family that their daughter was killed (and find out that Ampata was a boy), a very tricky situation. Someone better call Snyder and the police chief to help cover this one up.

Buffy loses her >>slaying ability because her choice of costume is an 18th century >>noblewoman... But what're Xander and Willow dressed as? Xander seems like the type to choose something heroic; look at his costume choice in "Inca Mummy Girl". I can see him dressing as Zorro, and saving the day with his new acrobatic and sword-fighting abilities (it would be a really short episode if he chose Superman). On the other hand, I can also see him dressing as Darth Vader, and becoming a villain for this episode. Willow, on the other hand, might prefer something authentic and concealing; she chose an Eskimo in IMG. So probably NOT Wonder Woman, Xena, or anyone like that. Saving the day with brilliant legal maneuvers when she dresses as Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is more her style. Or since BtVS is on WB, how about Kids WB characters: Xander as Pinky and Willow as The Brain? >About IMG: does anyone wonder how Buffy explains to her mom what >happened to Omphale or whatever her name was? That's very tricky. The last Joyce knows is that Ampata was on a date with Xander. I don't think Xander telling Joyce that "Ampata was eaten by wild dogs" or "The gang members on PCP got her" would work very well. And when Joyce calls South America to tell Ampata's family that their daughter was killed, and they say Ampata is a boy, it could be a problem. Anyone want to get Snyder and the police chief to help cover the whole thing up?

There was no natural reason, IMHO, for him to be in > this I guess I can think of a natural reason for Angel to be present in every ep and that is because he is the one that Buffy seems to (for want of a better word) love. There has been some talk of Buffy feeling down and out of things socially so why isn't Angel around, in the evening, to cheer her up, walk with her, or talk and "listen to her complaints". To me it would seem just as natural for Angel to be around in the evening as for her other friends to be there. He surely knows as much about Inca Mummies as do Xander and Willow. To simply relegate him to the vampire eps sort of takes away from the idea that he is developing as more than just an "undead" authority. He is pretty much Buffy's choice of love interest and if I didn't see my significant other during the day, I'd really look forward to seeing him in the evening. That would be natural. At the very least, I'd bring him up in conversation! I hope he has been off learning what Spike and Dru were up to this past week. OK enough ranting about that from a die hard Angel fan. Thought that Willow looked adorable in her Inuit costume. Interestingly, the word Eskimo is not very politically correct in Canada. Take it from someone who teaches Inuvialuit students all day. ;-) Jodie jking@inuvik.net Proud Buffaholic, Buffyatric and member of Buffy, eh? Keeper of Angel's wisdom and intelligence.
