at 2:15 am never arrived; I'll re-send it later, once I'm sure it's not
coming.

>Xander's abandonment of Anya

Yes, he should have stayed to make the announcement. But I have to love
that they finally started to address his issues, finally treated his
character seriously after a mere TWENTY-SIX EPISODES of nothing (he's
angry Joyce died, he proposes, that's it) between "Triangle" and this.

Did they really show "Into the Woods" and "Triangle" on FX before this?
(I've stopped watching the butchered versions, preferring DVDs or my
tapes of the uncut eps) Nice coincidence, that.

Hmm, skip 10 eps ahead, and next week, just before "Normal Again", we
should get "Spiral" and "The Weight of the World", featuring catatonic
Buffy, which should be another nice set-up.

So I'm encouraged to see Xander taken seriously (they even let him
jokingly hit on Buffy!), W/T being made too perfect (that glossing over
issues just has to mean trouble--I just hope it's not Will who hurts
her) and Spuffy so clearly over. "It hurts, a little." Movin' on,
baby, oh, yeah. :)
