Oh wait, and what do you mean you didn't watch Ats? Like at all? T_T
I actually have reasons. Last year (or before the apartment fire in August) I felt that I didn't want to watch potentially interesting female characters die and end up with a series dominated by men, I'd grown up with that my entire life so...I wanted to spend more time with Buffy and Co and put it off.
Then last year after the house fire it brought up some old trauma stuff which I'm dealing with ok, but I've gotten more sensitive about some things; then I saw some vids with clips from You're Welcome and A Hole in The World and could NOT stop crying. And I'm still mourning Tara (I've never mourned a fictional character before so I KNOW how weird that sounds) and I just - can't go through that process again. Not yet.

Excuses, I have 'em.
