I know the feeling... I'll have to wait 4 months -but hey, who's counting?- The important thing is that it'll happen and that makes me so happy and it also makes the next episodes more "watchable", you know? Knowing that they will further the relationship...
To all kittens out there, I love you all and wish you the best! Oh, it seems that I'm floating, really...

even though the machine I'm borrowing doesn't download these pic. threads completely the few pics I can get are wonderful!!!!!
I can't wait till tuesday!!!!
oh and I was looking at leoff's comments over at the BC&S board. One of the posts leoff put up made me stop and think about just how much JW does indeed love the tara character and trusts the actress playing her. Enough to make tara a pivotal part of this very important episode

"What surprises me most is the effective way Tara and Anya are used. "
"Tara is the strongest one in the episode. This is her moment to shine. Forgetting how close she and Joyce may or may not have been, she is comforting to everyone on many levels and realizes that her past experience with her own mother's death can only help her to understand how others will react and that allows her to help them cope and grieve."
I'm so glad JW gave us Tara and AB brought her to life.

we understand that you will have to wait a long time to see this amazing kiss air in your home countries. and we feel your pain.
to that end, we just formed a "tape tree" of sorts in chat to make CDs of this ep to distribute to people overseas who won't be able to see it on tuesday. there are several of us who will download the ep from USEnet/EFnet and burn it onto CDs that can be viewed on the computer.
if you live somewhere that is NOT going to air "the body" for quite some time, and you're interested in obtaining this CD, email me at cyber_apple@hotmail.com with your name and mailing address. i'll divide up all the requests i get among the people who are making CDs, and they will get in touch with you to talk about reimbursement for blanks and postage.
this is a humanitarian effort, people! no kitty should be deprived of seeing this historic TV moment!
sigh, maybe you shouldn't email me. i'm so technologically pathetic that i can't even get my email link to work! where would i be with out a moderator fantastico to rescue me...

Okay, I haven't taken my turn to say something about this episode because... well because I'm breathless from it and also have been running around to other websites posting about it.
What an episode this is going to be! It sounds absolutely spectacular, with outstanding performances by everyone!
Have you noticed, though, that there doesn't seem to be any Spike in it anywhere? And he's a regular!
Anyway, thanks so much to Kajun Spice and Xita for getting those pics up so quickly. The kiss is perfect in every respect. It's the perfect time and the perfect context to show a first W/T kiss, really, when no one can argue that it's for gratuitous sexual titillation (although it apparently still gives the episode an "explicit sexual situations" warning ).
I'm also very glad to see Tara once again finding a common bond with Buffy. Buffy-bonding is a good way for a character to stick around on this show (unless it's a romantic bond, of course), so this is definitely of the good. And it keeps the question of Tara's mother alive for future exploration (although at this point I don't think they'd take time out to do a Tara's-mom episode until early Season 6).
BTW, I'm hoping to have a video clip of the kiss scene ready to put online somewhere by the end of the week. Wish me luck!
Oh, and has anyone ever commented on how cute it looks when Amber tucks her hair behind her left ear?

Oh my God those pictures, woo hoo!
I'm so happy, you totally made my day, thank you so much for posting them!
You know looking at them for about the 100th time, it occured to me just how beautiful they are, I mean here we have two people who are just totally in love with eachother, we have Willow who is in so much pain and we have Tara who just wants to kiss her pain away.
I know there has been a lot of negativity towards the W/T relationship, but the way this appears to have been handled,shows that they are in a totally loving, committed and caring relationship, just like any other couple, the only difference is they happen to be 2 women!
Joss, as ever you rock, God I love this show!!

I'm upset though cuz I can't see the fast-moving spoiler
I can't wait until Tuesday. I bringing my port-a-t.v. to work- I don't car what my boss says. Those pics rocked!
But it also is very sad, too. Joyce will be missed.
Tuesday
Tuesday
Ahh Hurry
Xita, wasn't there a bet about the kiss?

I think it is a great thing that this kiss is hidden in this overwhelmingly traumatic episode. I cant think of a better way to have shown their first kiss. I am much happier that this kiss is about love and support and understanding and cannot possibly be mistaken for "sexual titillations" and was sneaked in without warning to avoid cries of a ratings ploy. In Joss we Trust and he has not let us down.
And a big woo hoo for WB who many of us thought would never let this through.
Their has not been much mention of Amber not appearing in the credits. Is this confirmed?
I will definitly be on damage control at the bronze tonight!

I should still have been at work now, but one of my dear sweet colleagues was willing to work the night for me.
So then I go online, log in to Yahoo *before* I come to the board, and I instantly get bombarded by dozens of IM's (by only three people I might add) who are absolutely freaking out, screaming at me to check out this thread.
Imagine my "surprise" at finding Willow and Tara kissing here. Imagine the joy I feel and imagine the dreams I am going to have.
Paula you said it all so well. But I would like to applaud Shazza here for pointing out the sexual content warning for this ep, which started the speculation and which probably saved my life. Already, I really believed this was going to happen.
I was prepared, my heart could take it now, barely, but still I am even *more* deeply affected and moved by this, than I ever could have imagined. This is how it was meant to be, it is perfect. I will comment more on the rest of the spoilers and this kiss once I have awoken from this dream.
April and all the others willing to help us all, you are too kind, I will build another little shrine now.

LIP EATING!!!
I am very happy for you.
by tvsurfer » Sun Feb 25, 2001 5:24 pm
So perhaps JW will be on the linear tue.
In any case I like some others here, think its a good idea for anyone who is available to pop in at the bronze tue night after the eppie to cheer for JW and W:T. I'm hoping there will be lots of positive posts for willow&tara.

Shazza, I can clearly picture you there, very funny...

I've been trying to stay spoiler free for this episode and I just found out that it happened. This is great news, I knew Joss would come through for us. Now for the hard part, remaining spoiler free with the rest of the episode and waiting till Tuesday.

Tara rocks in her jeans, belt and tie-dye shirt combo. She reminds me of Zia McCabe of The Dandy Warhols (my favorite band). The wardrobe women should look to Zia for Taras' hippy dippy fashion sense.

I doubt we're going to see a Willow/Tara sexathon any time soon (which will be good news for the Emergency Rooms near several of our board members... ), but we probably will see some more casual physical affection in the future.

i encourage everyone to write to them and let them know what a groundbreaking TV moment this will be! we want to make sure GLAAD gives this the attention it deserves!
Hello GLAAD folks!
Just in case you don't already know, I wanted to give you a heads up that this Tuesday, February 27, Buffy the Vampire Slayer will air a landmark lesbian kiss between two main characters on the show, wiccan lovers Willow and Tara. The two girls have been a couple on the show for quite some time now, and as far as I can tell this is the first same-sex kiss on network TV that will actually involve two people in a serious relationship. (As opposed to one of the people being straight, or not interested, or having switched bodies with someone of the opposite sex, and all of that nonsense).
Anyway, I just wanted to let you know to make sure that GLAAD tunes in for this historic TV moment. And you don't have to take my word for it - the following website has several pictures from the upcoming scene on Tuesday (taken by someone who gets the early Sunday sattellite feed). http://www.geocities.com/xita/pics/wt.html
Thanks for all the great work you do! Enjoy watching Buffy on Tuesday!
