'Trash'
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.
I would guess all those things, yeah
I can't tell you how many times I think about the exact moment when BtVS became my fandom home which I can pinpoint with great accuracy as when Buffy said "You're my Q" and DH was like "what?" and I said "James Bond Q not Star Trek" just before Buffy made the same clarification. A key moment in my biography
I can see where it is all of the above, Jess. Also, I had totally forgotten about Amy! I should have watched along with your crew.
Mayor: "I think some lucky girl's got herself a Playstation!"
A: "They had those back then?"
Ouch!
After Vamp!Willow licks Our!Willow's neck, "Oh becoming a vampire makes you bisexual"
Moments later.... "and I think I'm kinda gay."
A: "I was right!"
A: "I was right!"
Heh!
Yes, yes she was.
Jess, you've inspired me! I started watching S1 with Rose tonight, and I have assured her that it does get much better. She asked at the beginning if Buffy is more like Doctor Who or Stranger Things, and was relieved to hear that the answer was Doctor Who.
When the Mayor is talking shit about Buffy/Angel during the box-of-spiders-for-Willow swap: "Oh SHUT UP. This guy suuuuuuucks!"
(You guys have no idea how rare it is for A to be rooting for a het onscreen relationship. THAT'S how good this show is.)

Ha! During the Enemies fakeout reveal scene, A shouted "I knew it!" (Readers, they did not) and then proceeded to explain to me that they already DID an Angel-turns-evil plot, they weren't going to do it again. To which I said "Well...don't count on that. Angelus is like the Daleks of the Buffyverse"
