Oh hey, I thought I recognized Summer Glau as the prima ballerina in that one episode of “Angel.” (Which I started watching again, illegally, because I ran out of “Brooklyn Nine-Nine.”)
Her Russian accent is terrible.
I’m really amused by the fact that a hamburger statue came to life to spout prophecies.
I’m also horrified that Lilah ordered a 30-year-old Scotch with ice cubes.
Alexis Denisof’s English accent is *way* better than James Marsters’. I haven’t noticed any trap/bath split violations.
I have gotten fuck-all done today and I can’t stop watching “Angel”
The Pylean word for “the vigil of the bereaved” is “shiv-roth.” Sounds an awful lot like sitting shiva. The writer of the episode is named David Goodman and the director is David Grossman, so…
Some demon doing a fake English accent said “ass” instead of “arse.”
I’ve heard a lot about how powerful Wesley’s arc is in the later part of the show and I think I’m seeing the beginning of it.
Holy crap, I IMDbed the guy who played teenage Connor and he also played Pete Campbell on “Mad Men.”
Omg, I knew the guy who played the Groosalugg was Canadian. He says “sorry” like “sore-y.”
Love the “color commentary” @philosopherking1887. I do have to mention, Spike is “my guy” – my fave Buffy character. His accent and everything else about him worked for me.
For the most part his accent sounds fine. He just had some issues with putting words in the correct lexical sets. I’m sure someone from the UK would hear more phonetic problems than I can… I just hear the coarse-grained stuff, like when he uses short ‘a’ in words like “can’t,” “past,” and “bath.”
