Pimpety pimp! :)

beer_good_foamy has *excellent* meta on 'Buffy Vs Dracula' (the ep, the show and vampires in general - plus a couple of notes on the comic).

I presume most people have read this interview with Joss? If I had time I'd pull out bits & pieces, but suffice to say that it confirms everything I feel re. s8!

And via selenak a couple of fic recs:

Last One Out. Really, really excellent Torchwood fic, looking at what the future might hold for the team. Painful, but very rewarding to read! Three chapters, complete. Spoilers up to (and including) 'A Day in the Death'. ETA: It's by joonscribble if you'd rather go to her LJ. :)

Pockets by meddow. A Donna-centric ficlet that is truly wonderful. Very simple premise, and yet it reminded me of all the reasons I love The Doctor! *pines*

(There might have been more, but I've forgotten it and also I have to run! See you later!)

ETA: For Torchwood fans: There is a new comm on the block: our_torchwood is for enjoying, discussing and mocking (because we *love*) our show. Bashing not allowed! See this post. It explains why Torchwood is like sushi. (No spoilers!) :)

Really? I don't have a problem with it, but then I very rarely let what the writers say bother me.

Eh, it wasn't so much his commentary on the show, per se, just I thought his attitude toward the show in the last year was kind of dismissive, particularly in regards to the other writers. "If I had been showrunner..." Blah, blah. Well, you weren't, Joss. Then of course there was the ambiguous Buffy Basement Scene being done out of respect for the fans just irked me, like it was some artistic choice rather than just being too chicken to write it one way or the other. And other things

Doesn't bug me as much as it did before, but yeah, better the Bverse begins and ends on the television for me.

I see. Well I will always be grateful to him that he created Buffy, and also grateful that he often left her in the hands of others! :)
