This is quite gen enough. No worries there. *removes Mod hat*

I don't know where you got the idea (Married with Children? I almost forgot I watched the show.) but this was hilarious. Al and Peggy were perfect. Your sarcasm and humor are as wonderful as ever. Loved it.

Thanks!

I blame afternoon TV and a sick day (yes, it's still being repeated over here). And hey, it's where David Boreanaz made his TV debut, so it's almost canon. Sort of. :-)

Really glad to hear Al and Peggy worked - they're the sort of characters who are difficult to write without thinking you're overdoing it. Of course, they really were pretty nasty towards each other...

Oh, this is wonderful! Great work. :D

Thanks a lot!

Shoes, organs - everything falls on poor Spikey! And just the thought of Dru and Spike vs. Al Bundy...

You forgot "Slayers". ;-) I considered having Spike sire Al, but... Al might actually like that, and we can't have good things happening to him. Thanks!

I wish I watched Married With Childen - I'd love to understand better Al-Peggy dymanics. But Spike coming to the mall to register a complain on Dru's behalf - priceless! :)

Thanks! And I guess I'm about 15 years too late for everyone to know MWC... hehe.

In my case it's just about living in a country where this show hadn't been aired... :)

I didn't want to read this, because THAT tv show I've never even heard of. I've had to do RESEARCH (a whole 15 seconds on Google) but it was worth it because the little thing was nice! Liked the Spike very much: really scary dangerous guy with a surprising ability to make a fool of himself...I'm worried about Miss Edith, though. How is she going to get her booties now?

beer_good_foamy April 3 2008, 15:16:56 UTC

Haha, thanks! I'm flattered that you'd actually do research for it... ;-)

As for Miss Edith, I think Dru might try... other methods of persuasion next time.
