Oh man, I hate it when they toy with us! I found the character interaction the high point for this episode, regardless of the immediate threat facing the crew.

I've still got a funny feeling though that there's something else behind Fred's parents. Like who exactly tracked down Fred to Angel Investigations. They did say they were staying in town for awhile so maybe we'll see them again.
Cordy and Wesley's bit was LOL, and so was that line about "dozing off during the fourth one" Good to see Joss has a sense of humor. |
Wow this show gets funnier and funnier. I do wonder about the parents as well, but I guess all that worrying was just a red herring to throw us off. Still, what was up with Lorne then? Why would he say she didn't run far enough?
|
I'll bet all you Fred fans got quite a scare huh? I thought they were pulling another Doyle (sp?)
I wouldn't say I'm a Fred fan, but I'm glad she's gonna stick around. Good to see the Host back. Didn't like Angel being a Dork - someone's gotta stay serious! Maybe he was trying to loosen up after that line about 'love you so much, forgot to brood.' Another great episode. |

I lost it on the 'forgot to brood' line. That was way too funny.
This episode was insanely predictable, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I love the way Joss is handling the crossover problems. He can't bring Buffy to WB or Angel to UPN, so he has them meet in between at 'a special place'. Then, instead of showing that meeting, he shows Cordy and Wesley doing their impression of what would have happened had we gotten to see it. Wonderful stuff. How funny would it be if Spike and Dawn or Anya and Xander do the same thing tonight? das |
LOVED the Buffy/Angel act between Cordy and Wesley.
And, Spoiler:
:lol: There's something about Fred. I would think that her prattling on about Angel would be irritating me by now, but it is just “so cute.” And usually I detest cute. I am, though, getting a bit tired of the “goofy” Angel. Maybe it’s part of a personality change that I’m going to have to get used to. But I like the brooding guy better. Looking forward to Buffy to see how “they” handle the meeting. |
This is so frustrating! So far I've managed to miss this whole season. :(
|
Very funny ep. I still hate Fred, but it was funny stuff. And good continuity between Lorne and Gunn, it makes sense there would be tension there.
Cordy killed me with the "going home and having a good cry" comments. Too funny. And let's just stop the spoiler tags for a thread that's obviously based on the episode. If you click on this thread, you deserve to be spoiled. It's too hard to read as it is :) |

I put in the spoiler protection if I post on east coast time, and know that the west coasters haven't seen the episode yet at the time of my posting. It's the humane thing to do. :)

The episode was called "Fredless."
Loved this exchange: CORDELIA And voila! That's French for, "I think we stopped the bleeding." FRED Thanks, Cordelia. CORDELIA Next up -- multiple stab wounds. (calling over) Angel! ANGEL Ooh! My turn! He darts to the couch. Cor rolls her eyes affectionately. CORDELIA What a dork. |
Originally posted by dstrauss CORDELIA What a dork. das, I'm in total agreement. But when some DIPWAD wanders into a thread like this, what's the PC way of saying, "Hey, DIPSH!T! WTF are you doing in this thread if you haven't seen the episode?!?" Thank you. [John Aston (Night Court)] I'm feeling MUCH better now! [/goofy look] OK. I'm on board. No more spoiler blocking from me. |
Wow! an episode with lots of Fred that I was... kinda' lukewarm on. It was fine, but so predictable I was itching in my seat for something unexpected to happen and it never really did.
On Angel being a dork- Funny, in the 'Buffy's Back' E! special, Boreanez said how the fans had been telling him they wanted Angel to "lighten up", so its no suprise they have let him do so after nearly an entire season of being bad. No doubt the baby and Spoiler:
So Lorne says she didnt run far enough, yet shes sticking around huh?....Hmmmmnnnn? Fred's "Row, row, row your boat" was my favorite bit of the episode. Too damn cute. |
One more thing: In this episode, they are hinting that Wesley has the hots for Fred. Wesley's reaction to Fred announcing that she was leaving hit him kind of hard, but he was trying to hide his disappointment. Did anyone else pick up on this?
|
So, you'll go for a Wesley-has-the-hots-for-Fred thing, but not a Giles-has-the-hots-for-Buffy thing? :grunt:
I'll probably watch it again tomorrow night, so I'll keep an eye out. |

Wesley and Fred are of similar ages, within a decade at worst. Plus, they are both bookworms. :) |
Originally posted by Slumbering Fist I didnt quite get the same insinuation, but that doesnt mena it wasnt there. They do seem to be doing quite a bit, hinting between Angel and both Cordy and Fred, but then have Cordy throw a curve by remaining staunch on her "Don't get frisky with Angel" policy, applying, one assumes, not only to Fred but herself. I always figured that the reason Fred was included in the cast would be for some romantic interest, either between her and Angel or her and Wesley, with Angel being the stronger candidate. |

I caught that - esp. when Wesley takes a 'vote' on letting Fred stay with them. |
Ah, yeah, Wesley's vote was a pretty hasty one as well, showing his exuberance for Fred staying with them. Heh.
|
About the whole Angel being a dork thing this is not the first time he has done something like this. I think it was during the first season that they showed him dancing at a party and it was funny.
