I think the first 15 minutes of "The Body" needs to be in that list.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Ann, that's a ferret.
I'd suggest the last ep (putting over the "cookie dough" metaphor, plus that last shot) and, much as I hate the ep, the sex-with-Spike scene in "Doublemeat Palace."

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
How could you forget The Body, plus I have always loved the last scene with her and Angel in The Yoko Factor. Such chemistry.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
My read has always been that, if she doesn't find what she's being asked to do especially interesting, she doesn't try very hard, thus the uneven-ness. This is also why I have less loyalty to her than to a lot of other actors.

Just rewatched "Smile Time" off my DVD, then, since it was on there, rewatched "Hole in the World." My god, watching Fred die was even more heart wrenching.
My slashy soul adores that, not long after telling Spike he has to get out of LA, Angel's depending on him as the go-to guy for tough, physical jobs. And I know the word is over used, but Angel even called him a champion. "Hold my hand." "St. Petersburg!" "I didn't think you remembered."
Sigh.

Hec's list is basically mine, but I'd replace "I Will Remember You" with "The Body" and bump off "Conversations with Dead People" in favor of her work in "Forever" or "Nightmares."
I still think "Prophecy Girl" is the best acting she's ever done.

Astrid blows me away. I've seen the sketches on her LJ over the months, and I'm filled with talent envy.

What is even happening?
That is incredible.

Which Buffy EP was it where Xander(?) says, "How? What? How?" (or something similar), and Giles(?) replies, "Three excellent questions!" (or something similar)?
