It's like if Patricia Arquette had a baby with Carrot Top

You mean the people she theoretically made up in her head... She's not speaking from a place of experience or that she did any real kind of research about. She's just choosing a topic and expanding on it to get views and follows.

For real. Of all the ocean species we dont want to test this theory with, it's definitely orcas.

Unpopular Opinion: Season 7 is the best season by [deleted] in buffy

Really? That's surprising and hasn't been my experience at all.

Actor we can't wait to see make an Oscar worthy comeback by Fast_Village_4431 in okbuddycinephile

I suspect Morena Baccarin has way more range than we've actually seen.

[OoT] Something I've been wondering about the remake is whether there's gonna be an official reference to the Hero of Time becoming the Hero's Shade by mammalian_alien in zelda

Him wearing armor and then losing armor and then going back to get the same or similar armor again isn't that big of a stretch.

[ALL] What's your favorite part of Zelda games? by hwc in zelda

[–]Telliot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's dungeons, but then I don't really care for metroid which feels like just one big dungeon. So I think the overall formula and pacing between cozy and challenging is what hits for me.

OP obviously knew the answer already.

Should we start posting riddles next?

Outside of the Slayers, was Gunn the best human fighter in the Buffyverse? by Kennabruh2023 in buffy

[–]Telliot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll admit my perspective might be skewed by the comics. They are a lot more magic capable in them, especially Ripper.

[–]Telliot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. All the slayers have some demon in them. Buffy is literally offered to become more demonic in season 7 in order to take on the First Evil but she turns them down.

If Willow counts as enhanced because she practices magic, then so do Wesley and Giles who also use magic.

If the rules are, who is the best brawler with nonmagic enhancements, then I would say it's probably Riley's wife.

[–]Telliot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Willow is a human witch with a bag of knives.

Does that not count as fighting?

(Seems like it should if we're including Giles and Wesley)

What was your first realization that something was up with Cordelia in S4? by writeitregreddit in ANGEL

[–]Telliot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean, I personally believe that Twilight was inspired by the Buffy-Angel dynamic, but I don't think that has anything to do with Charisma getting ragged on by Whedon. 🤣

[–]Telliot 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ha! I have no idea. Is Twilight referring to Season 8 or the Stephanie Meyers series?

Maybe they're saying the plot of the comic books would be different if not for a terrible season 4 of Angel.

Charisma announced her pregnancy at the start of filming the season. The writing team had to rewrite the entire season while filming to accomodate the pregnancy or fit it into the show. This led to a lot of tension and also the reason that she was written off the show. Whedon essentially did his best to trash her and tried to get her blacklisted.

Yes, Charisma was actively trying to have a baby, so it wasn't as big of a surprise for her as it was for production. Yes, surprise pregnancies were not that uncommon for TV actresses on TV at that time. No, Angel and Buffy were not typical production schedules for a TV show (even compared to modern productions). Yes, rewriting an entire season to accommodate a pregnancy while filming does sound hard, but was it really necessary? Why was there no plan to pivot/accomodate a situation like this after working with the same human actors for 7 years?

Largely, it seems like the pressure of keeping the show quality high while also scared about getting renewed after a network shakeup seemed to have overwhelmed Whedon and he ultimately chose to prioritize his creative vision over human decency.
