Can anyone remember why it was that Joss decided to do do all the sex stuff in 'Where the Wild Things are'? Something about TV executives trying to tell him what he could and couldn't do? Thank you. :)
The icon is by crackers4jenn - she made a whole bunch of mock!icons. Here's a Bangel one.
And speaking of the enormous hallmonitor, it (obscurely, but there you go) reminded me of Amnesia!Spike which you must have read... if not you should. Probably the funniest S6 fic *ever*!

That's a great story, so funny! I hadn't read it in quite awhile. Thanks for reminding me. You know a story is great when you laugh more each time you read it.

I think it was that at the time, the WB executives wouldn't let Willow and Tara share even a chaste little kiss, so in retaliation Joss made a whole episode of Buffy and Riley having sweaty sex. I guess the audience who had to watch the sweaty sex was just collateral damage.;)

In the commentary for "The Body" Joss talks about how hard he had to fight with the WB just to get the kiss that Willow and Tara share in that episode left in, and there's nothing sexy about it at all. It wasn't until the series moved to UPN in S6 that Willow and Tara were shown kissing on a regular basis.
Rmours are that Joss wrote WTWTA because of standards and practises on the WB. It's also been suggested that they were asked to write Bear Bad. Something about the WB requesting anti-drugs messages for Government sponsored money. And Bear Bad was intended to be seen as a parody of after-school specials. Hence the ending with "What have we learned today?" FOAMY. "Just as long as that's clear"
I can't remember if any other WB shows had anti-drug messages around the same time though? It may just be fans trying to think up a reason for such terrible episodes *g*
"What have we learned today?" FOAMY. "Just as long as that's clear" Ah yes. I still can't believe that some people think the message is actually 'beer is bad'!
It may just be fans trying to think up a reason for such terrible episodes *g* Hmmm, yeah. Although I doubt anyone can think of a good excuse for 'Bad Eggs'. *g*

Buffy really is very wee, isn't she? I mean, what can she possible see from that angle? The underside of his great, flaring nostrils?
