BTVS fandom gripe
May. 8th, 2003 12:25 pmI 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.

Date: 2003-05-08 03:58 pm (UTC)I've enjoyed this season immensely. I'm liking everyone again (even Xander!). I think Spike's had a great showing, and I'm totally captivated by his story. I have faith in Spuffy. I'm totally in lust with Faith (mmm...Faith). I've got a few quibbles, yeah, but for the most part, I'm still all yay ME! If I wasn't, I wouldn't be watching.
I don't mind reading negative reviews. Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, and some of the more negative folks are just so perceptive or funny I just can't stay away. But happy people who like the show completely make my day. And that includes you :)
