DUDES

Right, so I've just finished re-watching Angel S5, and really was there ever a more brilliant ending to a show? If so, I'd like to know what show and why. No, seriously. (And I've never read the After the Fall comics, and I really don't want to as how Not Fade Away ended it was perfection and you don't mess with perfection.)

ANYWAY it's been awhile (years!) since I've read any Buffy/Angel fic, and I never read any S5 fic because I was sort of out of fandom by then anyway, but now I'm jonesing for some (Angel/Spike, Angel/Wes, Angel/Lindsay, Gunn/Wes, any combo) so if anyone's got recs, I'll take 'em. I'm pretty sure there are still some Buffyites on my f-list. :-D

Fantastic!!

You asked for it! Bob Newhart had two (out of three) incredibly successful sit-coms. The first one was called The Bob Newhart show, on which Suzanne Pleshette played his wife. His next show was simply called Newhart, and his character was an innkeeper in Maine with a beautiful blonde wife and a bizarre staff. Highjinx ensued.

The final minute ever of Newhart involved him waking up in bed with Suzanne Pleshette. The entire show was a dream from the first. No one expected it.

If that's not brilliant, I don't know what is.

ORITE! i remember that! That was pretty awesome. I watched the 2nd as a little girl (I think I was about 6?) because I live in Maine and my mom liked the inn. And I used to watch the older on on Nick At Nite, so I know of what you speak. *loves on Newhart too* :-D

Mrs. B. and I were very disappointed in all of Season 5 on Angel. And killing off the whole cast in the finale did not make us happy. We try to forget it.

See, that was Joss' executive decision when they canceled his show. Had he got his 6th season Wes wouldn't have died, Fred would have shared the body with Illyria and the whole gang would have continued on their mission. (Thank you Wikipedia, lol). If you read (about in my case) the After the Fall comics, it goes on like S8 comics of Buffy did. Makes more sense.
