Dollhouse?

I enjoyed it while it lasted! The beginning was rough, but they had some really cool ideas that I thought were fascinating.

As for s6&7 of BtVS...it's like being on UPN made them go down some freakishly horrific rabbit hole. It was NOT good. The only thing decent that came out of that was OMWF. They went so far from what made them good and it just wasn't done well. SMG was furious with what happened.

I didn't realize there was an emotional trigger notwithstanding physical contact.

Perfect happiness. If he experienced just a moment of relaxed, unmitigated bliss where he wasn't tortured by the thoughts of his past, he would revert to Angelus. As it was, having sex with Buffy was one way it triggered it. However, they established pretty firmly that it wasn't a "sex curse". Angel had sex with other women afterwards, no danger of Angelus. It was just being with Buffy... He did get a shit deal. And honestly, the only reason why they were permanently separated is because David got his own spin off. If that hadn't happened, they would have found a way to have them be together. *shrug*

Nothing to throw a tantrum over!

I know! I do get upset when people start going off on a tangent about B/S cause really...that's just fucked up. Everyone on the show, the writers, actors, director, etc, say that B/A are soulmates and yet people still insist on this twisted relationship that was supposed to show how WRONG it was for these two characters to be together. Gah.

It's funny cause it was within the LotS fandom, but it was a BtVS fandom fight. So no need to freak just yet!
