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.

i really despise that the same people who bitch about the show are constantly comparing this season's Angel.

Since I have only a passing interest in Angel, this irks me too. That show is like a fad for me. I sometimes tune in (like last night for the finale) or pay attention when its supposed to be really great, or when it connects to Buffy, but ultimately it hasn't captured my interest.

And people talked about how Angel has so mcuh "happening" when Buffy's all slow, but in reality nothing actually happened last night except for what occured in the last ten minutes. All the rest was character stuff. Sure, it was interesting, but it wasn't an all-explosive thrill ride either.

I dunno. I'll undoubtedly transfer my viewrship to Angel next season, just because.
