Is there lots of EW stuff? I think I only saw one article ...

There was just the one issue, but it included the main article, a few sidebar stories, and lots of photos. There was also some video of the reunion on the ew.com site. But there's been plenty of other, non-EW, 20th anniversary things all over the place. Some of it better thought-out than others. I'm just still into it, so it's all interesting to me. *hopeless fangirl*

Think JM looks unhappy or just older? I didn't pay attention to that. I have stayed away from his Vidiots thing.

So excited about the 20 year stuff!

I'm going to crosspost on DW now as soon as my comments migrate over there...ugh. I feel like I can't post much until they do.

Well, he's definitely older, but that's not so much an issue for me. Just, where's the sparkle? The smirk? I've seen him pull it out plenty in recent years, but somehow it's never for these reunions. IDK.

I don't exactly have beef with DW, except that it's expensive. But I did have a problem for YEARS with getting notifications from them. They just couldn't fix it. Then, a few months ago: voila! No more problem. I've got my fingers crossed that it'll keep working.

He hasn't really sparkled to me in anything since Buffy...I'm not sure why... 😢

I saw him in a live performance of The Importance of Being Earnest which was great. But he's pretty happy/chatty/fun in con appearances, as recently as a few weeks ago. So he CAN bring it.

However, except for some guest roles which he's rocked, he hasn't had a character to really run with for awhile, alas. Our loss.

I know, right?! Unlike some people I might be talking to right now, I'm not that interested in Willow's love life except that it's hard not to notice that she attracts the best love interests. I feel like with the double grounding of Tara and Oz, she'd be just about correctly balanced. Plus, they are just danged pretty together.

Yay! Poly! There's always room for another Poly doc.

OH! Is there another one that I missed? I will try my google-fu.

I think the 'glum' expression is common among actors of, lets say, a certain age? I think they fear smiling as it makes their face look older. A relaxed look can often give a more flattering effect.

Bleargh. You're never fully dressed without your smile. La la la la. Especially if you have a naughty smile, which he totally does.

That's a great point...
