Hi, This just in: the Parents Television Council has voted _Buffy_ the worst show of the 2001-2002 tv season! Huzzah!!! http://makeashorterlink.com/?N26825691 (I find particularly amusing the fact that one of the reasons they voted for _Buffy_ as worst show was because of its "references to the occult", while at the same time they voted _Sabrina, The Teenage Witch_ one of the top five *best* shows of the year! Fundies are funny.) ============================================== Meredith Tarr New Haven, CT USA mailto:meth@smoe.org http://www.smoe.org/meth ============================================== Live At The House O'Muzak House Concert Series http://www.smoe.org/meth/muzak.html ============================================== ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2002 18:19:58 -0700 From: "Berni Phillips" Subject: Re: b/buffy is the worst!

Fundies are funny.) Its references to the occult may have been one of the reasons, but I agree that the level of violence and graphic sex in it this past season made it very inappropriate for family viewing, and I suspect that was what weighed most strongly. I was very uncomfortable watching scenes (and the whole "Sunnydale is just a psychotic dream" episode) this past season. I look forward to a lighter Buffy.
