Tonight though, Sally an Lily have been exposed to something new, something deep and dark and slightly bordering on deranged.
I asked Lily if she had ever seen Once More With Feeling, the Buffy musical episode. Here's how the conversation went after that:

HER: Um, no, there's a Buffy musical?
ME: Yeah, Once More With Feeling, it's great, you should watch it sometime!
HER: Can we rent it?
ME: Why? I OWN it. Would you want to watch it on VCD or DVD?
So, I bust open season 6 and pull out the appropriate disk, pop that bad boy in the DVD player and they're all hooked. MWH/Lola had seen this many times but she had a newfound respect for the melodies and dance numbers. I turned on closed captionioning so they could sing along too and it was great. They loved it. I have now officially corrupted them with my Buffy obsession.
After OMWF, they wanted more. I hooked them further with two halloween themed episodes, Halloween and Fear, Itself. By this time I figure they were exhausted and ready for bed but no, I was so wrong, they looked at me and said they wanted to start from the beginning and so I put in Welcome to the Hellmouth.
After that I had to pop on here and blog about it, I'm just so proud I've got another generation hooked.
