it's that time of year again . . . .

. . . the time of year when I am the laziest laze-about to ever laze.

Seriously. Late January, early February? It's all I can do to pause the Buffy DVDs long enough to go feed myself so I don't die of starvation. I had things I was going to do tonight. I have things I'm going to do tonight.

. . . right?

Maybe if I watch all the rest of Season 7 really fast, then the lack of additional Buffy to watch will compel me to be productive.

Maybe.

I know that nothing makes me want to turn off Buffy more than season 7.

I haven't seen it since it aired. The early part went pretty well, but I think I'm hitting the leading edge of the bit where it bogs down into speechifying.

There are only a couple of episodes that I really like. And the only one memorable enough for me to name offhand is "Conversations with Dead People."

On the other hand, I do know a lot of people who swear up and down that season 7 "really isn't that bad." And I suppose that compared, say, to season 4 of Angel, it's not. All a matter of opinion, I say.

Yah, I was never half so much of an Angel fan. But it tended to be pretty good whenever I wasn't watching it -- which was only a partly facetious reason for me not watching S5 until it was done.

I think both S6 and S7 of Buffy have rock-solid concepts and good elements to their execution, but the pacing of both was shot to hell, with ancillary consequences to other aspects.

Season 6 for me.

Season six at least has a few things in its favor. Like poker with kittens and the musical.
