There's pics of SMG from the ABC party. Doesn't she just make the most beautiful brunette!
There's a RPS essay here I know there was a lot of debate over it on CDS recently, so if anyone's interested in reading it :) Someone on k-site today was saying RPS is almost like raping the actors. Okaaay.
And next SV episodes. Got up to Relic today, I'm on a roll now.

And does anyone else have that unauthorised guide to Buffy and really disagree with it? I swear it's like TWoP viewers in book form. First three seasons can do no wrong. Starts slipping in season 4, and every season gets worse. The term "jump the shark" is used all the time. Oh and apparently Bear Bad is a better episode than Fear Itself, Selfless? Nightmares was the only episode of season 1 not worth watching. (Nightmares was one of the best season 1 episodes!) And even when the earlier seasons are criticised, i.e Beauty And The Beasts wasn't good, they add that it cannot be classified as truly bad because it's from the first three seasons when Buffy never fails to entertain.
All it does is shit all over the last four seasons (esp seasons 5-7). I don't buy a fan guide for Buffy to read all that. It's disapointing because the episode guides are well put together, and it follows the characters through each episode. But then the reviews descends into bile :/ I mean I understand people preferring different seasons. I just didn't expect a published book for Buffy fans to be quite so negative and harsh. Oh well.
After I've finished with SV season 3, I'm thinking of watching season 6 and 7 of Buffy. I got those DVDs fairly recently, and have hardly watched them in comparision to seasons 1-5. Season 1 is by far my least favourite, but I generally like to watch Bts in order, so I've seen some of those early episodes a billian times it feels like.
