"Like a cherub made flesh." Yes! Also in agreement on sexy evil laugh.

WHEDON. WE NEED TO HAVE A CONVERSATION. Like about how long you can trot out the "feminist" credentials despite killing off female characters so they can serve as a plot/characterization device.
*snort-giggles* Heeheehee, that is my favorite quote about Whedon ever. I've not seen enough of his work to appreciate it in context, but this tells me pretty much all I need to know.

And if/when you find Doctor Who vids to these songs, please let me know.

It's what made him such an excellent villain, I think. He starts out as this nerdy, shy, nebbishy thing, which you expect, and then by the end, you've got this angel-faced blue-eyed blond busting out Villain Songs. Two Villain Songs, no less. I went a little wibbly.

I like most of Whedon's stuff to varying degrees, but he does have this unpleasant habit of killing off half a pairing, usually a woman, in order to spark "character development", to the point where, if two characters in a Whedon show are in a relationship, there's a virtual guarantee that one of them is not going to make it out alive. Or they'll have the most knock-down drag-out breakup ever.

...not like I'm still a bit bitter or anything. And I wasn't even that much of a Buffy fan.

A quick YouTube search confirms that, while there are quite a few Who vids to most of these songs, a whole lot of them aren't very good. I'll be sure to put up links if I find any gems.
