Happy Gauda Prime Day!

'Tis the season to be mistaken for a bounty hunter and shot dead by your best friend! Happy Gauda Prime Day, one and all!

And please extend a big Freedom Party welcome to [livejournal.com profile] sarannarandir, who has found her way to my LJ via a post I made about an article she published in Foundation all those years ago about the end of B7. The internet is a wonderful thing.

It's a relentless episode. You keep thinking they're going to get away with it, and they don't. Then they do. Then you realize that it wasn't Robin. Then there's the bowman at the end. And it all went out at Easter. Awesome.

I did like the fey aspects of RoS. It was quite funny to see the Costner movie, six years later, take so much from RoS (including the character of the Saracen who was only in RoS as an accidental result of Mark Ryan looking so good with two scimitars)... and then twist the Pagan and Christian aspects back round to make the Pagans the bad guys and the Christians the Good, when in RoS the Church was completely corrupt. Presumably this was to pander to the American Bible Belt audience, you know, the ones who think Harry Potter is an evil influence on their young.
