Questions Post #11
I have another batch of random questions.
General
Do you think Spike ever turned anybody?
Do you think Drusilla ever turned anyone except Spike?
Do you think Darla or Angel ever killed any Slayers?
Where did Gunn live in S2 of AtS?
Can anyone really explain why Buffy dying in "The Gift" made sense? Other than thematically, I mean.
What kind of music does Buffy like?
Doesn't Spike's duster look . . . too big on him, sometimes?
How come Angel's demon form can go out in the sunlight in Pylea? Wesley's explanation for Angel's human form withstanding sunlight is that the human aspects, like seeing his reflection etc are stronger, but then in demon form, shouldn't they be demon-y?
Is Pylea an alternate reality, like a world without shrimp? Or is it an alternate dimension? Is there a difference? Is there anything meta-cle about these terms and what they signify in Jossverse?
Season 6 of BtVS
Do Willow or Tara ever get a job?
Do Anya or Xander (or Willow or Tara) ever think to contribute anything to Buffy's money problems? I mean Willow (and Tara, before she moves out) is living in Buffy's house.
Did the Scoobies really not realize Buffy would come back to life in her grave?
Does anyone think the way they wrote Giles off the show was in character or well done?
Is it just me or do random references to Angel seem to increase in this season?
How does JM do that thing where he looks at SMG like he worships her with everything in him, without looking like a complete boob? Most people look like boobs when they do that. And not the good kind of boobs.
Why doesn't Giles reveal to the council that Buffy died? Isn't he aware that sooner or later everyone will find out? What does he seek to gain by hiding it? (I'm only asking about Giles because presumably you could say the Scoobies kept up the deception of the Buffybot because they thought they were bringing Buffy back anyway).
How come Amber Benson sings so well?
Why can't Spike decide how to fix his hair? Why can't Anya decide how to fix her hair?
Random
Who raised Bruce Wayne (after his parents died)? If it was Alfred, how did Alfred get custody?
Did you guys know Anthony Head is in the new Woody Allen movie (Scoop. I've seen two Woody Allen movies now. The first I despised and this one was really good! I loved Woody Allen in it; he was so endearing!)? Head has 2 lines, but Giles! OMG big-screen Giles!
Why do ants bear away their dead brethren?

I can see that.
I hated Pylea too. There's some cool stuff in it--Cordy dealing with vision issues, Wesley coming into his own, Fred, Angel dealing with demon issues, but the way that's all handled so goofily turns me off for the most part.
nope, willow could disappear and I wouldn't care. She bugged me in s6. All whining and not helping Buffy out in any financial way.
I can see that. I continue to love her; I like the way her problems parallel Buffy's and how both of them are falling apart and they don't notice that happening in each other, and no one else around them does, either.
Giles wasn't in S6. It was some pod!Giles.
Reasonable explanation, actually.
I can't even explain any of Giles actions because it angers me. My poor Giles all character assasinatey.
Everyone always talks about the massacre of Cordelia, but she DID have an arc throughout S1-2 of AtS that was about her mellowing out, becoming less selfish, becoming more caring for other people--I just think the jump between that Cordy and the Cordy somewhere in S3 is whacked out. But although Giles had some "I might have to leave" issues in S5, S5 was all about how much Buffy needs him, and he realized that. Shit, his last line in S5 was about how he can do the things Buffy can't. Then he ups and leaves her? There's NO lead up to that, none, it's not a jump from what he was before because that implies a connection, implies it's the same person, and just ugh!
the Giles/Tara duo is one of my fave songs on the OMWF.
I agree. But then I reconsider and admit that all of them are my favorite songs.
antomologist
Is that really a word?

I cannot STAND St Cordy, hell I can't stand Cordelius either. It was just..too much of a jump between the different characters, and that was just it. I'm sorry but Cordy can be a good person sure, but Buffy is capable of so much more good with 1000x the drama and trauma, and yet she has to wear a fucking cow on her hat and work in a fast food jump. Cordelia, a saint you are not. Besides if I were to chose a Scoobie as a saint, it'd probably be Xander.
I think I really can't stand Alyson Hannigan too (and how her acting changed and regressed in the later seasons), could be cuz of my uber SMG love too.
Is that really a word?
No, it's not, I mispelled it. It's entomologist. My bad.
no subject
I actually think they had trouble getting someone of them--definitely had trouble getting SMG, but I'd heard MT, too, was a problem.
I agree they messed with Cordy's character a lot. But they did Giles, too.

Ha! I thought you were punning.
