Mitch’s Musings:
-This week Mitch teases what’s to come in Buffy 4×04, “Fear, Itself,” and Angel 1×04, “I Fall to Pieces.”
Buffy – Someone is going to be really brave and maybe they will take on adapting The Lion King in a nightmare realm with spiders and heights.
Angel – We have another perfect chance for an Angel music video, and someone falls apart into dozens of pixels.
