AIBU to think this is still one of the best Buffy the Vampire Slayer episodes?

Yanbu! Grin

Yanbu, love it!

julsey8 · 31/01/2020 16:51

Love it! The soundtrack still gets regular plays in the car!

WilheldivaHater · 31/01/2020 16:51

It's amazing! I play the soundtrack on my way to work (and try to resist the urge to sing along)

moonlight1705 · 31/01/2020 16:52

Absolutely, it reconfirms that my teenage crush on Giles was justified Grin

Musicalmistress · 31/01/2020 16:53

Love it! Soundtrack is a regular in this house 🎶🎶🎶

Soubriquet · 31/01/2020 16:56

🎶he snores
She wheezes
Say housework and he freezes
She eats these skeezy cheeses that I can’t describe
I talk
He breezes
She doesn’t know what pleases
His penis got diseases from a chumash tribe!🎶

The absolute best. Watched it for my 30th with my weirdo friends and we ALL still remembered the lyrics. There will be a repeat for my 40th 😊

SugarMiceInTheRain · 31/01/2020 17:04

Love love love it! That was the episode that got me into Buffy then DH showed me many other episodes. That's still my favourite though.

MouthBreathingRage · 31/01/2020 17:08

It was very good, but there were a couple more episodes that stood out for me. The one where it flicked between Buffy being in 'her world' as a slayer, and 'the real world' where she was in a psychiatric hospital - the ending is so ambiguous that you dont know if 'our' Buffy is actually imagining the her whole slayer life is a bit of a mind fuck in itself.

The episode where she finds her mum has died is some incredible bit of television. The first few minutes being total silence, the characters reactions (especially Spike), the entire thing is haunting and beautifully done.

CandiceSucksCandy · 31/01/2020 17:09

That and the Dracula episode!

bringbackspanishflu · 31/01/2020 17:16

My Dd has recently found Buffyq and watched this episode the other day.
I love buff once more with feeling was an amazing episode, that and hush

Dhalandchips · 31/01/2020 17:17

I love it, but Hush is my 2nd favourite 😁

Vanillaradio · 31/01/2020 17:20

Yanbu. This is and always will be my favourite Buffy episode!

Halloweenbabyy · 31/01/2020 17:21

Becoming and becoming part 2 are utterly heart breaking. When oz leaves killed me also 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

riotlady · 31/01/2020 17:22

YANBU!! I do think Sarah Michelle Gellar’s singing is quite flat though

redexpat · 31/01/2020 17:24

Yabu. It is the absolute best.

geekone · 31/01/2020 17:24

YADNBU also hush...

Introducing DS10 to buddy just on season 2 he loves it so far

GhostHoward · 31/01/2020 17:25

YADNBU

Tabula Rasa, Doppleganger, Band Candy and Hush are also my favourites.

Actually there are too many to count. I nearly forgot about the amazingness of Storyteller!!!

geekone · 31/01/2020 17:25

buffy

geekone · 31/01/2020 17:27

@MouthBreathingRage Entropy and the body I think were those episodes. I watch Buffy 1-7 at least once every 3 years.

FleetwoodMacMummy · 31/01/2020 17:27

Love it! I know every word of that episode as I was OBSESSED with it as a teenager!

PrincessSarene · 31/01/2020 17:28

It’s great! DH and I still regularly sing “Bunnies, bunnies, it must be bunnies!” Grin

geekone · 31/01/2020 17:29

Not Entropy, “normal again” entropy was the next episode. I was close.

ImportantWater · 31/01/2020 17:29

Aw, absolutely love it. I bought the CD before I had seen the episode so I had a few weird ideas about the meaning of some of the lyrics. "They got the mustard out" being one of them! I used to listen to the soundtrack on my iPod on the way home from work.
I really want one day to do a singalong in my house, but I don't know if I know enough people who know the tunes! I would cast myself as Buffy but realistically should probably be Willow "I think this lines mostly filler".
I also love Tabula Rasa, the next episode. Although Season 5 is my favourite generally. I love Intervention. Anything with Spike in, basically.
