Oh and another very honourable mention.

Nicholas Brendan in his speedos outfit in the episode where he joins the swim team, I think it's called Go Fish [faints]

Best show ever!

OhDearNigel · 28/12/2012 14:14

wmcd - that episode is called Earshot. Another of my faves (there are so many !!)

OhDearNigel · 28/12/2012 14:16

Oh and the demon Sweet's final song in OMWF. Every time I watch that episode I have that number playing round and round in my head for days :D

InNeedOfBrandy · 28/12/2012 14:28

I can't wait for Dc to go to bed tonight so i can watch another 4 episodes!

OhDearNigel · 28/12/2012 14:34

You don't need the box-set caffeine, you can get a free month's sign up for lovefilm and have a massive marathon

We got 6 months lovefilm on groupon for £9.99. Worth it just for Buffy :D

Wheresmycaffeinedrip · 28/12/2012 14:40

Unfortunately my dp has already signed up and cancelled love film as didn't have time to watch anythin half the time :(

Besides I still want box set :o currently wading thru 1-6 of house and watching re runs of ER too lol

InNeedOfBrandy · 28/12/2012 14:41

That's what I did Nigel! Love groupon sometimes!

OhDearNigel · 28/12/2012 14:47

Sign up for lovefilm instant with a different email. That's all I did, we used to have LF dvds but cancelled it so couldn't get the new deal. I just reregistered with a different email address

Brilliant thread!

I'm up to the start of Buffy series 3 on lovefilm. i'd only seen some of the 6.45 ones before that so it's a revelation.

I love the way they build up the characters. And the continuity, and the complete lack of happy ending guarantees...

JakeBullet · 28/12/2012 17:28

This thread has got me watching again....on Season 2, going to do an episode a night.Grin

GoEasyPudding · 28/12/2012 17:58

I have only watched it through the once back in about 2004/5. DH and I borrowed the dvd sets from a friend, then bought s6 and s7.

We also had the huge excitement and the perfect timing of finishing the show and the last ever episode on a Thursday and then on the following Saturday going to one of those conventions and meeting Spike. Honestly - it was like meeting God.

Those of you that were really into this show can probably understand this feeling. He looked 100% the same as he did in the shows and was even wearing a black T Shirt.

There is something Buffy in the air for sure as I was thinking of rewatching it from the start again as I caught a glimpse of a famous episode on Syfy just a few days ago and thought yeah, time for Buffy again.

InNeedOfBrandy · 28/12/2012 18:50

Anyone ever watch charmed? I watched every single episode of that but I couldn't repeat them.

coughingbean · 28/12/2012 18:51

fecking love buffy! Yes i did swe charmed and agree you can proberly only watch that once!

coughingbean · 28/12/2012 18:52

oooo apologiea for the spelling! big thumbs, small phone

Indith · 28/12/2012 18:53

I did the month free trial for lovefilm. I made it about half way through Buffy before the month ran out. I keep having to restrain myself from paying for another month or 2 to finish it off!

InNeedOfBrandy · 28/12/2012 19:04

Was good while it lasted cb!

Indith you can sign up for another free trial using new email and different bank details.

KaraStarbuckThrace · 28/12/2012 19:05

"You made a bear!!!!"

The Zeppo is another good episode.
And the one where Buffy tells the Council to fuck themselves.

Indith · 28/12/2012 19:06

I don't have another bank account to use though!

InNeedOfBrandy · 28/12/2012 19:11
