I was really into Angel, too. There was a melancholic richness to it that Buffy didn't have.
One character that really surprised me was Illyria, in how much I liked her. She seemed like she was cooked up as a flat concept but turned out to be delightfully ambiguous and dynamic.
Plus I just like Amy Acker. I hated that Fred left (transformed, actually), but in the comic I hear that
Fred and Illyria separate into distinct beings once again due to Willow's inventiveness.
I think I sympathized too much with Fred, heh.
Both shows have a serious lack of Faith.

Hey guys, just wanted to stop in to say this clan is a really great idea (sorry, I haven't been in the Clan forum very much ^_^), and to definitely sign me up as a friend!

I absolutely loved Illyria! What a departure from Fred. I remember reading that Fred was going to die but nothing prepared me for actually seeing it. It was the saddest thing in the world to see Wesley holding her in her last moments. I cried. But we got Illyria. She reminds me of Anya except she's actually a threat. Plus the sheer comedy of her was off the charts. I loved the episode where she's at Spike's pad playing his X-Box with another supernatural(the guardian of the Deeper Well?).

quoted for truthiness. I really liked the arc when Wes breaks Faith out of jail and she fights Angelus. It made up for the fail that was Buffy's 7th season.

As far as sci-fi shows go, the only one I can stand to watch is Doctor Who. I've never heard of Angel, and thusly know absolutely nothing about it.
At the moment, I'm trying to find a place to get ahold of the new DW ep. Because ResNet doesn't let me torrent anything. And the file I spent HOURS downloading last night is made of epic fail. Sigh.

But welcome all. Grab a bean bag chair and a Shirley Temple and cozy up to the warmth of our flaming. I'll be responsible for checking ID's
And Kraj can teach you the secret handshake. (But for the handshake you might want to bring your own umbrella)

Ha. I'm not even old enough to drink legally, and you're telling me I have to check fake IDs? For some reason, this is absolutely hilarious.
Procure sex from them? I don't think the boyfriend would like that much.
But yeah.
@ new people: don't mind blue. He doesn't get out much. He doesn't bite, I promise. (unless you're into that sort of thing, in which case he probably would bite you.)

Hi back to all who hi;d me. Wow, that makes me sound ocmpletely illiterate. Must try harder.
I like the idea of a secret handshake. It's always good when a cute gay man sticks his hand out to greet me.
Also, going back to a previous topic, James Marsters is a damn fine man. It's great in the first episode of Torchwood season two when he and John Barrowman fight then make out. =P
Man that show is so homoerotic. The two Jacks sharing a precious kiss, Yanto Jones...

HAH as if you need to take him to the backroom to show him the handshake. And I think I've been watching too many *ahem* adult videoes... when one guy is leading another guy somewhere, he doesn't take him by the wrist.

He's actually a year younger than my parents. That makes him 45 going on 46. I think he'd look nice with a tan. Now that he isn't playing a vampire he can catch some rays and look younger. Julian McMahon looks older than James Marster and he isn't. The poor fellow has a receding hairline that seems to get bigger with every season of Nip/Tuck. Plus he has the bearing of an older man, which probably served him well in the past.
When I was young people always assumed I was older than I looked and it was helpful for getting into R rated movies and buying alcohol but now some guys(and girls) won't talk to me because they think I'm older than I am. *lol* Ageism isn't something I thought I'd face for another 10 years or so in the dating world. I've found that many older men dismiss going out with younger women because they think that young women aren't interested in older men. I like older men and women. They have cars, money, houses, and have left the drama of youth behind(hopefully). That's better than being young, optimistic, and full of good intentions but nothing else.
Well, since we all seem to be in that state of mind, I guess it's time to do my attempt at the "Hot Guy of the Week (or whenever someone feels like doing it)." Here he is...
James McAvoy
Fun Facts:
-He was born and raised in Glasgow, Scotland, but of capable of pulling off nigh-perfect English, British, and Irish accents.
-He attended a Catholic school in his youth, and considered joining the priesthood (thankfully, he didn't).
-Despite his relatively recent emergence in the American spotlight, he's been acting, both in films and on stage, since 1995 and has already built quite a reputation as the "leading man." He has already played the romantic opposite of such big names as Christina Ricci (Penelope), Kiera Knightly (Atonement), Anne Hatheway (Becoming Jane), and, is some ways, Georgie Henley (Chronicles of Narnia), and is set to appear in the upcoming movie Wanted with Angelina Jolie.
-Sadly, he's married.
And now...
And there you have it. The second sexiest man alive in my book. Who's #1? That's for another week. Hope you all enjoyed. (If you want more pics of him, PM me, I've got plenty of them.)
I like the two candid pictures the best... the 'head-scratching' and 'morning-stretch' are his best shots. The bottom left picture reminds me of someone... can't quite put my finger on it.
Nice find, Howler. I vaguely recognize this guy, but I've never seen him in any movies.

Ah, Torchwood. Yeah, I thought the one Yanto+Jack kiss was sweet and a couple of other adjectives, besides. It is indeed a pleasantly homoerotic show. Even though it is a bit depressing, at least from what I've seen.

I don't know. He's an okay actor, but I guess after Disturbia and Transformers did so well he started getting a big head, acting like an a$$ all the time. That's a real turn-off for me. Didn't think he was all that cute to begin with (not my type).
EVEN STEVEN? er... I mean Shia LeBoeuf? Yah he's alright... my current fave guy is James Franco of Spiderman fame.
my friend Caleb and I joked about that awful third movie for a long while. Our favorite part is when he's eating the pie. "So good". Whenever we wanted to say "so good" from then on we'd just say Pie. Unfortunately Caleb had to go to a funeral shortly after that and one of the mourners said a speech and started it with "God is so good" and he couldn't stop laughing internally.

I don't mind if Spike's a bit older than me (okay, by more than 20 years). He's still an attractive man and has a scent of mysterious allure to him.

James Franco is definitely hot but kind boring, imo.
I like your choice, Howler. He's not the type that makes me go "damn...", but he's definitely hot. He looks very 'cute guy next door'ish and he's a nice departure from the standard hunk image.
