Oh square-jawed blond boy.
Wyou, you're starting something here.
Wyou, I did, too, actually, he looks not just a little bit like Paul Rudd. But the blond boy was referenced first. And I do have a thing for blonds.
Oh please, I can't believe I'm the only one who said something like "Both... and me in the middle..."
Oh GFG, you're not alone in that. Though if you were already there, there really wouldn't be a "middle" for me to get in, would there?
My heart belongs to a very special blonde.
But I'm all for the one on the left in this case. I mean, there's a reason he got the lines...
MenzelManiac, I'm sure we could find ANOTHER middle...
That's funny, my heart belongs to a very special brunette.
But I'd go for the blond.
eww. Is there flirting in this thread? As long as I'm in the middle.
Sooo, I'll put a Buffy DVD into my player now...
Tell me which episode!
This is a musical theatre board (so I'm told).
Do "Once More"!!!!
in the middle of the flirting. Yes, of course!
But... if bway joins in... we'll actually have a middle again!
LOL! Are we talking about watching Buffy in a threesome?
Must get minds out of gutter...
DURING, not IN!
Oh, the summary before "Once More With Feeling" is so good!
And here we go!
"Every single night
The same arrangement
I go out and fight the fight..."
I love that he pairs the word strange with estrangement.
I've watched Once More, With Feeling more than any other episode. That's always my choice when I only have time to watch one.
And Joss loves his Sondheim. You knew he'd find a way to make his own wordy mark on the lyrics.
It's so great when the vampire turns to dust at the end of that song and her face becomes visible through it...
LOL!
Nothing seems to penetrate my
(stabs vamp, he's dust)
heeeeart!
Perfection.
THEY GOT --- THE MUSTARD --- OOOOOOUUT!!!!
It's not just us...
I just love that Joss gave Buffy a cutesy "I Want" song to start it, cute choreography and all, even if the subject of the song is much heavier than the Alan Menken/Disney model he's emulating.
Pochahontas has "Just Around The River Bend"
Ariel has "Part of Your World"
Buffy has "Going Through The Motions"
I love it.
Dawn: Oh my God. You'll never believe what happened at school today.
Buffy: Everybody started singing and dancing?
Dawn: I gave birth to a pterodactyl.
Anya: Oh my God, did it sing?
Sweet: That's entertainment!
YAY!
Anya: Clearly our number is a retro-pastiche that's never going to be a break-away pop hit.
*****
Buffy: Thought you wanted me to stay away from you. Isn't that what you sang?
Xander: Spike sing a "widdle" song?
Anya: Would you say it was a breakaway pop hit, or more of a book number?
Xander: Let it go sweetie.
How excellent, regarding "Mustard", is it that Joss added the precursor song to it in the flashback episode when Anya sings "I'll Be Mrs."? Priceless.
