simple math

buffy + summer dress + knee high boots + lollipop = one fucking hot tv show

thinking on it, a lot of good shows seem to have the multi episode start. this one was a two parter. the pilot for firefly was 2 hours. batman beyond was 2 episodes (maybe more? it was enough to be released as a dvd). samurai jack was a multi (i think maybe 3 or 4, but i'm not sure). good indicator. did the powerpuff girls start that way?

spiderman TAS (the animated series) did everything in parts. it was all chapters, which was really cool. but confusing if you jumped in the middle of one.

the alien costume is still one of my favorite storylines ever in anything. is that a distinctive sounding honor?

i even think gargoyles started off with a multi-episode pilot. the list just grows and grows.
