What The New Year Has Brought

A renewed interest in one of my favorite TV shows.

I spent the new year in Atlanta, hanging with Chocolate' (forever now with the nickname Crip) and because of her immobility, we spent a lot of time in front of the TV. She got me all caught up on Bones which of course stars a Joss Whedon alum, David Boreanaz. Came home and dug out my Buffy collection and start watching them from season 1. Yes, I know, I know; I have a very exciting life. Don't be jealous.
Anyway I am now on season 4 and I have just finished my all time favorite episode. A pure masterpiece, fantastic story line and the best monsters every put forth in the realm of television. Not only did the people of Buffy create a wonderful episode with roughly 10 minutes of dialogue, but they created The Gentlemen and they scared the shit out of me.

The Gentlemen never spoke a word, grinned through their carnage and floated along the streets of Sunnydale looking for their hearts. Even though I have watched the episode a hundred times, they still give me the "wiggins". The only thing that could have possibly made the episode better would have been my favorite character - Oz.

Hope everyone had a great new year! Love to hear from you!
