Well, actually they kinda ignored Cordelia and Xander in Season 3. So it
was basically Buffy, Willow, Giles, Angel and Faith. With an occasional
sleazy look in Cordelia's direction by Wesley.
:)
They kinda ignored Cordelia and Xander?
Xander and Willow have 'illicit smoochies' together from 'Homecoming' to
'Lover's Walk', when they're caught by Cordelia and Oz who are both
devastated.
Cordelia then meets Anya, who grants her wish that Buffy had never arrived,
resulting in an alternate reality in which vampires had taken over
Sunnydale, and the two main vampires were Xander and Willow.
Xander had an entire episode to himself in 'The Zeppo', and was also the
first to find out (after Buffy) that Angel had returned.
They were in every episode, and Xander at least had some important
storylines, particularly the whole 'affair' with Willow and the Faith nearly
killing him thing.
We also learned that Cordelia's wealth had been a lie for at least half of
that year, as her dad had been fiddling taxes meaning she had to work in a
clothes shop in order to buy a dress for the prom.
And of course, she was prominent in the episode 'Homecoming' where she's
mistaken for Faith and helps Buffy fight the demons/vampires/German spies.
"Kind of ignored", indeed. Which season 3 were you watching?
Steve
The 'Faith nearly killing him' thing was a couple of minutes. Hardly a
season arc thing. Granted, the affair thing was big, but I was wretching in
the vomit bucket every time he attached his lips to that witch.
Cordelia had less scenes than Xander in Season 3. Apart from 'Homecoming'
(which was ONE episode out of 22), she was basically making cameo
appearances.
Hardly a season arc? If Angel hadn't seen her try to kill him, nobody would
have realised she'd turned to the other side. Granted, Angel's discovery was
more important than Xander being there, but if he hadn't been there, they
wouldn't have known (though we would, we had seen her lack of remorse after
killing Finch). Faith's turning evil (killing Finch, trying to kill Xander,
Willow and Buffy, trying to make Angel lose his soul, working for the mayor)
is, after the Mayor's 'ascension', the main arc for that series.

I'll hear nothing against Willow. She's absolutely lovely.
Still, personal tastes etc.

I'll give you that about Cordelia. After she split up with Xander, she was
hardly in it, until she met Wesley and became briefly besotted, and she
started taking an active part again, but it was reduced from what it was in
Season 2. Really, in S1 she was hardly in it much at all either. It's only
since she crossed over to Angel that she's come into her own. I don't think
she was very important in Buffy at all. For a start, she barely liked them
anyway.

Do they not have region-specific groups in Finland? I ask as a
complete ignoramus. This is a UK group, after all, so why don't the
Finnish have one?

Maybe if people restricted cross-posting to something more appropriate
there would be less of a problem...

If I ever opened a trampoline store, I don't think I'd call it Tramp-Land,
because you might think it was a store for tramps, which is not the
impression we are trying to convey with our store. On the other hand, we
would not prohibit tramps from browsing, or testing the trampolines, unless
a tramp's gyrations seemed to be getting out of control.
As the light changed from red to green to yellow and back to red again, I
sat there thinking about life. Was it nothing more than a bunch of honking
and yelling? Sometimes it seemed that way.

Sorry to reply to my own post but I missed the fact that the earlier
post was X posted to alt.buffy.europe amongst others. Bleary eyes and
not enough sleep I'm afraid. Please ignore my ramblings Jaacko had a
very valid point.

Not being picky at all, merely making a simple enquiry. And I *do* use
spoilers, and I *do* know what's available on video and what's
currently airing on TV. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make,
but I'm sure it's a valid one. My question was not related to
spoilers, but merely as to the extent of the regionalisation of an
individual newsgroup. I think you missed the point somewhat.
Apologies for any cross-posts this reply results in, but my newsreader
doesn't show them by default. As far as I'm concerned, I'm in umtb and
umta. Having read in a later thread that this is going to the European
groups as well, I can understand why my original question may have
seemed a bit out of place. Since, however, my newsserver doesn't carry
the non-UK groups I had no way of knowing that this thread was going
on anywhere else.
Oh, and there's no need to be rude, even if you were using asterisks.

Oops.
Check my reply above for whinges about my newsreader's lack of info
re: crossposts and newsservers that carry about a thousandth of
usenet.
Cheers for pointing that out, anyhow. Won't happen again, promise :->
maybe if ppl restricted crossposting altogether...

I think a good product would be 'Baby Duck Hat.' It's a fake baby duck,
which you strap on top of your head. Then you go swimming underwater until
you find a mommy duck and her babies, and you join them. Then all of the
sudden, you stand up out of the water and roar like Godzilla. Man those
ducks really take off! Also Baby Duck Hat is good for parties.
I don't pretend to have all the answers, I don't even pretend to know all
the questions.. Hey, where am I?

Instead of having 'answers' on a math test, they should just call them
'impressions', and if you got a different 'impression', so what, can't we
all be brothers?

Aslam I hope you're reading this... I just saw what you did. You almost
got it right. Let me explain to you once more how this works :
Cross posting, if you really really have to is okay (but why would
you???) BUT you have to put only ONE newsgroup in the "Follow-up To"
box, sothat you avoid that every single post is going over the limited
amount of bandwidth 9 times....
this is what you did :
To : alt.buffy.europe
Followup-To: alt.fan.david-boreanaz, alt.fan.hannigan, alt.fan.sarah-
m-gellar, alt.tv.angel, alt.tv.buffy-v-slayer,
aus.tv.buffy, uk.media.tv.angel, uk.media.tv.buffy-v-
slayer
It should have been the other way around. You understand? What would be
even better is that you choose just ONE newsgroup where you want to
discuss your questions. Like uk.media.tv.buffy-v-slayer
Thanks for your attention...

I wish there was a disease where you're afraid of clouds, because I think I
could cure it. First, you sit the patient down and have a long, personal
