BTVS fandom gripe

[timepiececlock]

I have to stop reading other people's episode summaries.

I just have to... stop.

I was happy. Really, really, happy. And other people's comments are making me feel depressed, and what's more making me bad for liking the show.

Unlike a lot of you, I like this show, I like this season, and I liked the last episode.

And I don't want to be made to feel bad for actually liking my favorite show on tv.

So I'm just going to skip all the episode summaries for the next 2 weeks until it ends. Or, most of them. I'll probably break and read a few. I'm weak.

But instead I'll be commenting on icons and fic and random stuff, rather than ep response/discussion.

ETA: This is not meant to pinpoint one specific person. And see previous post where I said I :heart: you all and want to read your fic. Just not ep summaries, for another 14 or so days.

diametrically different opinions on almost every aspect of the ep, i.e., people saying "Oh good, Buffy's finally opening up!" and also, "This is the last straw, Buffy's just using Spike!" about the exact same scene.

That was weird; I noticed it too. Downer A hated the Spuffy but thought Wood/F was hot. Downer B loved Spuffy but hated Willow/Kennedy and thought the Spike/faith fihgt was gratuitous. Downer C hated all the sex but loved the Mayor (well... I think almost everyone loved the Mayor. He's just cool like that.)
