You're so full of crap
27 January 2007
Warning: Spoilers
You're so full of crap - One of my favorite early-season 5 episodes. Werewolves have always been my favorite supernatural creatures, so I was very pleased with getting a werewolf episode after one irritating Spike-filled episode, it feels like a reward somehow. Though 'Spike' is still annoying around, he wasn't as irritating in this episode, I love it when he does the 'woosh' thing you know?, when he's suddenly not there anymore, that's the positive side of him being a spook. I also quite loved the 'Nina' character, Jenny Mollen has to be one of the prettiest actresses to appear on the show (i'm not shallow, it's just an observation), my favorite scenes of the episode were when 'Nina' began to have her first symptoms of a werewolf, smelling and hearing everything more sharply, also in the kitchen when she imagined ripping her niece's throat out was pretty neat. The werewolf transformation and the Nina-werewolf looked a lot better than the Oz-werewolf on BtVs which I always found to look pretty cute. The 'Nina' getting kidnapped to serve a menu storyline was kind of morbid, which I like, especially when she bit the W&H guy who was behind all of that - A month from now, you'll have one. I also loved the ending, with the gang hanging out at 'Angel's place like back in the day. Plus the irony of 'Angel' killing a werewolf with a pen was not lost on me, first a spoon and now a pen? I wonder what's next. WESLEY: You think you can trust him?... Them? FRED: What? WESLEY: These people, the ones you're spending so much time with lately. Knox, for example. FRED: We're, you know, friendly, but he's under me...or I'm on top of him... professionally. (9.0 out of 10)
