Fixed that for you.
Interesting premise, reminds me a bit of Gunslinger Girls.
The whole mind-wipe thing is a lot like GSG's "Conditioning Process".

Good stuff, and without one whit of the perversity or fanservice the genre is known for, but I warn thee... sweet in a strange kinda way, it's bawl your eyes out sad, in fact, it's a lot like chug-a-lugging candy coated razor blades to watch it.
Still, I find it hard to generate interest in something I firmly believe F*X is gonna cancel before it even gets off the ground.
It's become self-fulfilling prophecy now... everyone knows they're gonna can it, nobody bothers to watch, and the F*X pennypinchers look at the ratings, crap a brick and throw it under the bus.
So forgive me if I can't really "get it up" for this one...
Eliza, on the other hand, is another matter entire!

I hated Buffy, but I always loved Faith, ten times the slayer that sanctimonious little prigg ever was, and five times as human.

I'm kind of anxious to see what Fox does with the new Terminator series. If they renew it, then maybe there is still hope for them.

Joss is very busy writing. He has Better Days, Astonishing X-Men, Buffy 8, and Runaways. Plus, he has to work up sides and a pilot for Dollhouse.

Me too! Buffy, Wil, and Xander could no wrong but everyone else got their asses chewed for even thinking of placing a toe out of place. Thhbt.

You might want to go back and see a few of the choice things Giles had to say to Xander early on....mostly for doing things that Giles had already done himself.
Willow got it a little bit, but nothing on the level of what Xander did.
C'mon. Faith was the bad girl for a reason. Yes, they overreacted over the fact that she killed someone, (or did they), but, the effort for rehabilitation was there. It sure was.
