Apparently, the WB is trying to do to UPN with Buffy what ABC tried to do to WB with Sabrina.

Namely, in an effort to drive down the value of Buffy reruns (or so the story goes), WB will be airing Season 5 reruns twice a week, starting Sunday, June 24th.

According to tvguide.com, the reruns will start from the beginning of the season (Buffy vs. Dracula), and air Sundays at 8. These are apparently in addition to our regularly scheduled reruns, Wednesdays at 9 (Which, on 6/27, is scheduled as I Was Made to Love You).

This is good, because I don't have most of the season on tape, so I thought I'd share the news.

Or something. Can you tell I'm avoiding work?

That's fine by me. I will enjoy watching Buffy twice a week. I don't think UPN picks it up until the fall, so the WB has the right to do this.

Yeah, I don't doubt the legality.

I just find it really funny that they're doing basically the exact same thing that was done to them last season. History repeats itself, etc.
