So, the final episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer just aired, and it wasn't bad. Fitting, you know. Which of course meant that my two favourite characters were mercilessly killed off saving everybody else's sorry asses, no doubt to make some final point about redemption through sacrifice. Figures. I always prefer the characters that the other pricks dub 'morally questionable', even though they are totally upright and classy. Sure, Anya and Spike killed heaps of people, but hellooo, they were demons. Another example of my predeliction for the pariah can be found in my attitude to The Bold and the Beautiful. I am heavily pro-Brooke, and have ever been so. Everyone else on that show can go to hell. Dicks. Last night also showed the final ever episode of Freaks and Geeks, possibly the best show ever made. And yet, it only lasted one season. Who makes these decisions? How could dangerous shit like Walker: Texas Ranger and Touched By An Angel get renewed so interminably and yet...? Grimace. Scowl. Also, can somebody please explain the demise of Micallef Tonight? He was bloody brilliant! Every sentence he uttered had an additional meaning. He was odd and subversive, damnit! And Denton totally sucks. And Russell Crowe is a total loser. Check out the film clip for his duet with that Pretenders chick if you had any doubts. Cue Russell, sauntering on horseback, in fucking moleskins, akubra and japara. Cut to Russell, down by the fucking billabong, under the shade of the fucking coolabah tree, unbearably infused with wonder for the fucking rugged Australian lifestyle, shabbily referencing what he reckons is the fucking template of the fucking Aussie character, Clancy of the fucking Overflow and such, blah blah blah. Fuck off you faux-earthy pompous git! He totally thinks he is the shit, but he's just a total loser. I hate it when people don't know how crap they are. Geez I despise such shit. But, ah fuck it. TV rocks.
