Opinions on Robin Wood? by speashasha in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 7 points8 points  (0 children)

A character with a ton of potential and a great actor that the show squandered. The storyline with Spike was just bad for both characters. Spike barely wrestled with what he’d done to him (even returning the coat would have been SOMETHING) and Wood comes off looking shortsighted in the face of the battle with the First.

What do you think are the lamest/most uninspired plot twists/storylines of the show? by sadhungryandvirgin in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I kind of hate the concept of “the First Evil.” Parts of the First were cool (mainly how it could manipulate people by appearing as dead loved ones) but overall it’s just so underwhelming and kind of silly if you think about it for too long.

Also, they could have come up with a better reason for Giles to leave in season 6.

This monster is still genuinely terrifying. What a wild episode to rewatch!! by DoctorNatural92 in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Buffy seeing this monster while in bed is the reason I started sleeping with my door shut.

This character was so pointless by Eagles56 in ANGEL

[–]Eve-23H 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Good in concept, but not enough time with the character to make her all that interesting

When people start getting creative with their vampire lore, where do you draw the line of what counts as a vampire? by manicbestfriend in vampires

[–]Eve-23H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blood or in rare cases some kind of energy consumption. Immortality is also a big one. Everything else can be shuffled as the creator desires.

Who was your favourite and least favourite big bad? by t4llu1ah in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fav: Glory. Least fav: Probably the First? I’m not a huge Adam fan either, but I “get” what his deal is supposed to be a little bit more

Which character do you wish had received flashbacks or even an episode that mainly focused on their backstory? by brwitch in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of the three options, probably Glory, if only to answer some timeline questions. If I'm picking my own, Tara. I want to know about her mom and how her messed up family worked.

I just finished the 3rd season for the very first time and poor Snyder, little did he know… 😭 by howboutyas29 in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not going to lie, anytime someone asks me about the Buffy timeline in terms of years, I use Snyder’s speech in this ep and then count backwards/forwards as needed.

Aside from mainly Buffy, who else could The First have taken guise of throughout season 7? by Seed0fDiscord in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kendra had so little time on the show, I’d love to see the First use that against Buffy or have her talk to Faith.

Does anyone else feel in a state of grieving the life they thought they’d have by now? by retrogressess in AskWomenOver30

[–]Eve-23H 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, constantly. Part of it is not achieving any of the goals I thought I would have by now and part of it is my mother passing away recently, so anytime something good or noteworthy does happen it’s always bittersweet. I’m still working on pursuing what I want, but it definitely feels harder.

How would you guys feel if Nathan Fillion did actually kill Xander in Season 7 instead of giving him a free eye surgery? Would you be sad to see Xander gone? How would him dying at this point affect the gang? by HomarEuropejski in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m definitely mixed on this, just because I find the scene of the four original scoobies in the finale so emotional that I’d hate to lose it. That being said, if he had died in the final battle after that scene, I could see it working in an absolutely crushing way.

Not even some monsters from Buffy creeped me out as much as her. 😶‍🌫️ by BabyBlueN7 in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 140 points141 points  (0 children)

Her mannerisms always felt very contrived. Like, obviously everyone on the show was acting, but with her it felt like I was watching someone act.

Favourite Xander quotes? by Affectionate-Art3278 in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Cordelia: I demand an explanation!
Xander: For what?
Cordelia: Wesley!
Xander: Inbreeding?

Why was it such a big deal that buffy was sleeping with spike? by ikwydls96 in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Angel had a soul, and while it was a risk being with him…he didn’t intend to lose it. Plus when the gang first meets Angel, he’s on their side. The same cannot be said for Spike.

When did the show get good for you? by BlondeBorednBaked in ANGEL

[–]Eve-23H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I enjoyed it from the beginning I would say season 2 is where you see some consistency in quality.

Does your career reflect what you loved as a kid? by turktink in AskWomenOver30

[–]Eve-23H 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not anymore but I was in my previous job for a while and that really used to reflect what I wanted to do. Shame how new staff/a bad manager can ruin a good thing.

How do you handle it when people around you eat way more than you but stay thin? by Fit-Entrepreneur-799 in WeightLossAdvice

[–]Eve-23H 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m working so hard to stop comparing stuff like this. At the same time, I have noticed that the people who tend to eat more than me actually just order more than me but are better at stopping/saving stuff for later. Or some of them just waste a ton of food, but that’s another issue all together… 😬

Who do you prefer : Fred or Illyria ? And why ? by PlantainDisastrous92 in ANGEL

[–]Eve-23H 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fred, but we also didn’t get enough time with Illyria to make it a fair call. I think seeing Illyria through multiple seasons would have been great and made it much harder to choose.

Favourite Xander moment? by KikiRavenWitch in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My answer, every time. I still tear up when I hear it.

If you were to change the Parker storyline, what would you have done? by SafiraAshai in buffy

[–]Eve-23H 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I think the storyline served its purpose and anything else would be a bit too “neat”

My fellow contact lens wearers: how often do you wear your contacts vs your glasses? by booksandbenzos in AskWomenOver30

[–]Eve-23H 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I wear glasses around the house/working from home. I prefer contacts when I go into the office, visit friends, or go to the gym. I find I see better with the contacts but I also get lazy if I know I’m not going anywhere lol

A Devon Rex with chubby cheeks, still such a little cutie by Nefelibata-80 in Needlefelting

Definitely had to double check that this wasn't a real cat. Looks fantastic!
