how does this board know who I am if I don't know my
password? says:

Seroiusly, that means they know WHERE I am, and everything
about me. So I'd just like to say, this may LOOK like
women's lingerie, but it's just a clever swimsuit. In
case I need to swim.
On to other things. Which is, Thanks all for your support.
I appreciate the passion of those who criticize me,
but it isn't until someone comes to my defense that
I realize how much I feel it. So thanks. And good night.
And if anyone sees Kiba, please explain to her that
it's just a clever swimsuit.... ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZnow

Well, I started me quite a brawl over there in UPNLand.
Whoopsie? I'll just sneak out through here... Sumbuddy
sed I only posted there cuz th' UPN FORCED me to, which
how they would I'm unclear about, but the sad truth
is I just wanted to say hey, let people know I was still
in the mix, and I finally remembered my damn password
over there. Anyhoo, here as well but only on th' quick,
to say hi. Never know where people are at but hi to
all youse regular types that I know. Watch all my shows
and buy the products advertised in between! (That was
pretty shameless.) (Seriously, I crossed a line there,
I'm sorry.)
Bye now!

over the gay thing, revisited
Posted by: Joss - May 22, 2002, 2:27 AM
Thought I was out, but.... had one more thing to add.
I killed Tara. Some of you may have been hurt by that.
It very unlikely it was more painful to you than it
was to me. I couldn't even discuss it in story meetings
without getting upset, physically. Which is why I knew
it was the right thing to do. Because stories, as I
have so often said, are not about what we WANT. And
I knew some people would be angry with me for destroying
the only gay couple on the show, but the idea that I
COULDN'T kill Tara because she was gay is as offensive
to me as the idea that I DID kill her because she was
gay. Willow's story was not about being gay. It was
about weakness, addiction, loss... the way life hits
you in the gut right when you think you're back on your
feet. The course of true love never did run smooth,
not on my show. (only Dennis Franz has suffered more
than my characters.) I love Amber and she knows it.
Eventually, this story will end for all of them. Hers
ended sooner.
Or did it......?
Yeah, it did.
exit me, pursued by bear
Posted by: Joss - May 22, 2002, 2:15 AM
There is no bear. That was a lie. But I am leaving.
Just wanted to say thanks for watching, y'all come back,
etc... also, I read occasionally that people haven't
been as happy with this year (actually, I hear that
every year), show's not the same... not from eveeryone,
but it comes up, and I just wanna say this: Dis not
th' Nox. Say not that I'm not into it, Marti's not getting
it done, anything of that sort... Fact is, I'm in this
show up to my neck always. Same With Angel and yup,
Firefly too. And I've read that I've blown off one for
the other -- He's over Buffy, Firefly is just a contractual
obligation, he didn't even CREATE the Rockford Files,
why's he taking credit for it... I've heard it all.
And it ain't necessarily so. Marti (She of the great
brain and great beauty) and I shaped this year very
carefully, and while we made mistakes (as we do every
year), we made our show. We explored what we wanted
to, said what we meant. You don't have to like it, but
don't think it comes from neglect. That would give me
hurty feelings. Next year is gonna be the greatest challenge
of my life, but I've got all three shows lined up thematically,
i've got amazing writers and stupendous casts, I'm excited.
It feels like the beginning. Joss, year one.
Just wait.
pt II

Okay, then. Feel a little weird about putting that all
out there so soon, but I'm sure it was all gonna come
out on Ain't-it-spoiled anyhoo, so.... (can you believe
the lame fish joke? and I'm supposed to have THREE shows!
Some's alseep at the wheel, me getting more shows...)
Soo... I guess there's not much more to say. 'CEPT:
We're busting Ass (mostly Fury's, he volunteered, PLEASE
don't ask) to put next year into shape and once again,
I'm bursting with excitement. I'm not saying a damn
thing (as per usual) but it's an exciting new arc and
I may get to shoot a little bit of it in England...
Next year we take it up a notch. Swear to the Sky Bully.
yours ever,
me (j)
Everything that's going to happen
Posted by: Joss - May 22, 2002, 1:56 AM
As people who have been around for a while know, I
always like to get on the "net" and reveal
aboslutely everything that's going to happen next year.
That way, you don't spend all summer stressing. Here's
the important points:
1) Buffy will become a "vampire slayer". I
can't really explain what that means yet, 'cause Doug
hasn't explained it to me. But it seems to point towards
ADVENTURE!
2) Format change: from now on, the first half hour will
be about Buffy FIGURING OUT what the monster is, and
the second half hour will be about Sam Waterston PROSECUTING
the monster.
3) We're easing back on the goats. There've been complaints.
4) Because of the coincidental movie name issue, we
will no longer refer to the kids as the "Scooby"
Gang. They will be known as the "Scooby Doo, The
Film, Coming This Christmas To Your Local DVD Store"
gang. Or possibly the "Sharks".
5) The gay thing is so passe. We're over that. But honestly,
that's just the way Clem ACTS. We're having a talk.
6) A lot of people were confused at the end when Spike
wanted his fish order changed. SOLE, people. Jeez. We
HAVE a vampire with a SOUL, you think we're doing that
again?
7) Cardigans, cardigans, cardigans.
Been gone a while, come to say hi
Posted by: Joss - May 22, 2002, 1:32 AM

Always have. Plus with the kicking, double shot to the
