No the nation's eyes should not be turning to Iowa

They should be voting for Whedonesque in the 2004 Bloggies.

You know it makes sense.

In Angel news, stuff happened and very surreal it was too. I'll tell you all about it once the show finishes for good.

Mouth still a bit sore after the pizza last night. I never learn. Everytime I put something hot in my mouth, I always get a blister.

what kind of stuff?

set clashes are so fun to read

always fold the pizza so that the crust is the only thing that touches your mouth

No it wasn't a set clash. As far as I understand the Angel cast get on exceedingly well with each other.

And thats a useful tip about the pizza. Stops melting cheese from burning my upper mouth.

Now that's just rude!

You can't bring something like that up and then not say anything!!!!

well

season 6 is looking more and more likely. In fact I'm going to stick my neck out and says it's a dead cert.

Oooo.

[iidoru.livejournal.com]

Cool.

And see? SMG can come guest star then.

[simonf.livejournal.com]

I'm really doubting she will come back onto Angel period.

But I would like to see Faith, Xander, Willow and Giles guest. Depends on the budget. From what I understand, wages and costs for Angel went up in season 5 but the budget stayed the same. Certaintly explains why we see a lot of the Wolfram and Hart office.

However old Angel fans opposed to new Angel fans would prefer to see Darla, Lilah, Holland Manners, Conor and Dru making a return.

Really?

[iidoru.livejournal.com]

I thought she might come at the end. I've heard her say several times that she thought Buffy should end up with Angel, and that she'd be willing like that to be clear at the end.

I'd like to see Giles and Willow, but I'd also like to see Lilah and Holland. Lindsay used to be on my wish list, too, so ...

I get the impression that she wants to distance herself from Joss and co at the minute and stand on her own two feet. Trouble is a lot of Angel fans don't want a Buffy appearance for a various number of reasons. But if there is another season and if it is the last, then I'm sure Joss and co will be doing their best to get her to come back.

I can understand her point of view.

[iidoru.livejournal.com]

She's in danger of being typecast and if I were her I'd try to find roles as different as possible from the Buffy mould. I'd also try to work with different people. Joss tends to use the same actors over and over again, and I sometimes suspect that he casts on the basis of friendship and not talent.

I'd love to see Buffy come to Angel, but I'm scared that they'd make it all about the Buffy/Spike relationship, and I got enough of that on Buffy season seven. I think it's a good idea to wait until next year.

He does seem to cast on friendship, case in point, that guy Knox he's been on all three shows. I'm not saying he's not talented just that that does seem to be the way Joss operates.

Pffft.

[sternwieser.livejournal.com]

You know Buffy is meant to be with Spike. [grin]

And I'd like to see Lilah and Holland too. The others, not so much.

My eyes! MY EYES!

[iidoru.livejournal.com]

I think the Dru and Darla storyline is played out.

But Lilah, yes. She must return. They should do a Marie-Antoinette storyline with her, and have her haunt the office, walking around with her head under her arm.

now where's my 5 bucks?

Mmmm

[simonf.livejournal.com]

5 Canadian dollars = £2.15 (I think I can afford that)

5 US Dollars = £2.80 (best exchange rate for us Brits in 11 years apparently)

Can you afford £2.80 also?

For I am poor and that will buy me dinner and coffee two nights running at school.

Sheepy if only the States was part of the Commonwealth

or still under British rule, I would be delighted to help. But I'm afraid my duty lies in helping my poor Canadian cousins first.

But I'll be delighted to buy you dinner and a coffee next time we meet up.

Yes, but I'm poor *and* oppressed!

Can I claim refugee status?
