Any Buffy Fans — Page 23

Oh, and I thought this thread was filled with big ol' faggots...

---

You know them, singer, you just don't KNOW you know them. Soon as you hear some of them, the Buffy images come right back to you, even if you didn't know the name of the song/singer at the time.

I'll admitt that there is a LOT of music on the show, and a lot of it fades into the background (as it should when it is used as background/ambiance) Way too much to know all of it. But the show has so many moments that are perfect combinations of action and music.

Full of Grace and Prayer of St. Francis will remind you of the season 2 and 6 finales every time you hear them. Of course Dru would dance to Transylvanian Concubine. And you smile listening to I Can't Take My Eyes Off you and picturing Tara and Willow floating-dancing, and then get sad when the next song on the playlist is Goodbye for You and you remember Tara and Giles leaving. So, while there are a lot of songs featured, there are definitely a select few that make up the Best Of list.

And as for Christophe Beck's score music, you REALLY appreciate hearing some of that outside of the episodes. It's easy to focus on the dialogue, but listen to the music on its own and you realize the beautiful work he did. (And it's funny how no one remembers any of the score music from the show after he left the show, expecting Rob Duncan's work in the last episode and the special instances were Beck came back) I wish I had more of his music, but I could only find some of the score tracks, and only a few tracks of it have been released on the soundtracks.

I ave three seasons of WIll and Grace, all but the last two of Friends, Angel, I'll also be getting Scrubs and probably Smallville, too...

We have a lot at our house. Aside from Buffy and Angel:
Firefly
Golden Girls (1-3)
Growing Pains (1)
Full House (1)
Boy Meets World (1-3)
Will & Grace (1-4)
Desperate Housewives (1)
Saved by the Bell (1-5)
Roswell (1-3)
Fraggle Rock (1)
Smallville (1-4)
The Muppet Show (1)
Absolutely Fabulous (1-5)
The Simple Life (1-3)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1-3)
Arrested Development (1-2)
American Dad (1)
Family Guy (1-4)
Aqua Teen Hunger Force
Robot Chicken
The Judy Garland Show (Complete)
Pee-Wee's Playhouse (1)
Tru Calling (1-2)
Project Runway (1-2 are ordered and on their way)
Road to Avonlea (1-3)

And I'm sure there are others...but I'm at work and can't check the shelf...And I'd like to pick up Gilmore Girls, but haven't gotten around to it.

Wow, impressive, wyou17!
Though I'm a little concerned that you own The Simple Life...

And the funny thing about that episode is that Sarah Chalke is actually much better than those two guys who are supposed to be German!

Just to add a picture now and then...

Yes, she is! And looking like a ho doesn't have to be a bad thing...


Another one:

I wish we saw Amber Benson do things more often.

There's something exciting about watching her say some of the things she says in Latter Days and her movie Chance after all of those years of knowing her only as Tara.

Having Tara tell Willow to kill herself would have been like punching me in the face. An impact, yes, and memorable, but I don't know that I'd be able to take it. Too painful.

I liked Cassie in Conversations. It would have been nice if we had known her as a character for more than one other episode, but I liked the idea of telling Willow "You can't see her." It was sad.

It would have been nice to see Tara in another capacity, though. If there would have been ANY way to get her back for that last scene with Willow, that would have been amazing. "You're a goddess!" delivered by Amber Benson? I would LOVE it.

Kennedy was a Kunt

Oh, Kennedy. She wasn't my favorite, but I accept the role she was playing on the show.

I was only mad later when Willow was brought up on Angel the next season as being in Brazil...with Kennedy. Kennedy was clearly a rebound. Necessary? Yes. But not long term.

Cassie=Azura Skye. She's currently pulling a COMPLETE 180 playing a coke-head agent/scenester wannabe in a new comedy called "the Minor Accomplishments of Jackie Woodman." It's an original sitcom for IFC starring Laura Kightlinger (and written by her).
SO wildly inappropriate. I HOWLED at the horrible things she says and does. And Azura's wonderful in it.

"That's all she was. An afterthought, and a nod to Buffy fans."

Cassie? I don't think she was as afterthough. I mean, it is common knowledge that the scene in Conversations was written for Amber Benson to play as "Tara," but when she was unavailable (and not keen on tarnishing the memory of her character) the writers had to do something. I think the solution they came up with was more than an afterthought. It worked very well. Was seeing Cassie again as big a surprise as seeing Tara again would have been? No. But They did add the layer of telling Willow it was her fault Tara couldn't talk to her directly.

Any ideas as to who else they might have used in the scene?

And singer, I always liked Laura Kightlinger. And anyone remember the sitcom Zoe, Duncan, Jack, and Jane? (Later shortened to just Zoe) Azura played Jane and was certainly not the least bit Cassie (or Coke-y)
