I was posting the other day and I ran into a problem. I needed to quickly refer to Cordelia and Doyle/Wesley, and I immediately thought 'The Scooby Gang' but that's Willow, Xander, Giles et al. So how are we going to refer to Angel's little helpers? Ideas on the back of a postcard (or you could just post them here...)

Well we already have Charlie's Angels, so why not Angel's Angels? . The Angel Gang, NOT the Angelettes, because i think that sounds kinda naff.. or then again....IP: Logged |

OK well sticking to the common Hanna-barbera denominator, there was a cartoon called Casper and the Angels (with Casper the freindly ghost and two space police officers on a space station in the year 2179, NO seriously!). So they could be the Caspers. I also remember a couple of Scooby rip offs with gangs, so they could be the Buford gang or the Clue Club like in them. Another one was called The Chan and the Chan clan show. It featured a private detective who solved crimes with the help of his son and daughter. So they could be the Chan Clan, but my fave is the Drac pack which was about a decendent of Dracula who turned good and tried to help humanity with the help of his freinds. These are all far to obscure to catch on, but I remember them. I'm so utterly sad PLEASE SHOOT ME!!!!!!!! IP: Logged |

To continue with the same idea, but bear with me . There are a lot of Angel fans on these boards, maybe we should have a name to join us together ? (unless it was a truly stupid idea) What do you think?  My contribution would be the Soul Sisters (as Angel possesses one? ) Or alternatively, you can tell me just to shut up and go away!

Group-names are really common in fandom, and I'm truly surprised that none have popped up for Buffy yet. I'll get Sus to post a bit about FK fandom, you'll see what I mean.IP: Logged |

You're thinking the whole Trekkies/Trekkers thing, right?I remember when the talk was going around for a similar thing for Babylon 5 and they ended up with 'Fivers' (I cannot _believe_ my suggestion of Babyloonies wasn't picked up]. The most famous one in the online Buffyverse is the Bronzers who are, of course, named after their posting board.
So maybe rather than coming up with a name for Buffy/Angel fans in toto how about just a name for the people who post here? Or do we have one of those? Stakehousers ? A bit too long Stakers ? too non-descript Housers ? Again, pretty non-specific, but better. Or of course we could go to the website Buffyuk -> Buff-yuk -> yukkers I think not [This message has been edited by Vox (edited 27-04-2000).] IP: Logged |

Nope, I wasn't talking about the Trekkie thing - I was talking about factions, which I believe Sus has posted about.

Backtracking slightly, I really like your suggestion GtG. I reckon the Drac pack could possibly catch on  IP: Logged |

If I've correctly picked up the gist, Stu, doesn't that also mean that when you appear in public you have to drink a cup of "blood", then grin at everyone with blood running out of your mouth & down your chin?IP: Logged |

So Stu, does that mean that everyone else has to either enter from the crowd, or leave after two weeks to hang out with the ex-wife of the son of a fat bleeder instead?IP: Logged |

Ah well, I got the tape of No Mercy to watch the ladder match, and in the intros the Hardyz were introduced as "Matt and Jeff... the Brood" and Gangrel was their ringside manager, but then they won Terri's 'services', and she used to be married to Dustin Rhodes, son of Dusty who is fat and bleeds in every match  IP: Logged |

Well, I agree with GtG and Velvet (didn't you just know I would agree with Velvet, YO Velvet, we're getting really spooky now luv!!! ), I think The Drac Pack is a good quick ref to Doyle/Cordy/Wesley.  [This message has been edited by Kelly (edited 02-05-2000).] IP: Logged |
