Buffy co-stars James Marsters, Amber Benson and Alyson Hannigan joined ASH for tracks on his CD Music for Elevators and Joss wrote one of the songs. AllPop.com reviews the CD. whatever you do, if you don't want to be spoiled about any upcoming Buffy eps, don't click on the 'Buffy (News and Recap)' link because they PUT THE SPOILERS IN THE FRIGGIN' HEADLINES! the fuckers! now i know something i wouldn't have wanted to know had i known what it was and could decide that i didn't want to know before i knew. again, fuckers.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit? is coming to DVD. the boyfriend will be excited about that.

Enron The Movie: "Cable channel FX and Artisan are in development on a made-for-television movie about the Enron scandal…" it's time to do this, now that we know everything about what went on, the backroom deals, who was involved, and how they accomplished it. FX. jump the gun much?

tragedy strikes: the computer people tried to update an important and much used program here at work, and it's causing all sorts of problems. management is forcing us to take a two hour lunch while the problem is fixed. it's horrible, the things i have to suffer through.
thank you, Jean! it's been bugging me that i couldn't quite make out what they were saying.

i'm not sure. i wasn't invited.
i loved this scene (found the text here in a Salute to Doug Petrie):

Spike has arrived in L.A. just in time to narrate Angel's rescue of a young damsel in distress:

SPIKE
(damsel voice)
"But there must be some way I can show my appreciation . . ."
(Angel voice)
"No, helping those in need's my job. And working up a load of sexual tension, then prancing away like a magnificent poof is truly thanks enough . . ."
(damsel voice)
"I . . . understand. I have a nephew who's gay, so . . ."
(Angel voice)
"Say no more! Evil's still afoot, and I'm almost out of that Nancy-boy hair gel I like so much! Quickly! To the Angel-Mobile! Away!"
from Sci Fi Wire: "Doug Petrie, a writer for UPN's Buffy the Vampire Slayer, has been hired to write a draft of the upcoming Fantastic Four movie, …the BBCi Web site reported."
i thought i'd read the Stewart had himself said that the upcoming ST movie would be his last, but i guess not: Patrick Stewart told Star Trek Monthly that in regards to word that this 'Nemesis' is there [sic] last outing - "Nobody's telling us that". Can the crew come back for another? "I don't see why not". [via Dark Horizons]

it's only like a month late or something, but i've finally published my review of "Gone" woo hoo!
okay, going back to the musical "Once More, With Feeling," can anyone please complete what Willow and Tara were saying at the beginning after the 'Uh... did anyone burst into song?' line? i got the "We did a whole duet about dinner last night" then something about couscous. also, Anya is saying something about coconuts. did anyone get all of that? the closed captioning stayed with Giles and Buffy mostly, and had a little bit of Anya's. please, someone help me with this.
[SPOILERS ahead] "Dead Things", tonight's Buffy, was not at all the episode i expected it to be, in a suprising and good way. it's one that i really liked, but the entire episode could have consisted of just the Buffy and Tara scenes and it would still have been a smashing episode. Buffy, begging Tara to say that there's something wrong with her, to me, settled the question of whether or not she loves Spike. there is no doubt now. B/A 'shippers, your ship has sunk.
it's not a good thing when you come home to find that your roommate is snogging one of your exes that you'd rather not see.

i could barely tolerate being around the guy when we were dating. now it looks like he'll be at my apartment often.

feh.
