Ooh! Pate!
Buffy ,'Chosen'
Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!
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.
Hee!
I think that was the episode that accidentally got left off the nomination ballots.
I remember thinking that when they annnounced the Emmys would be showing a scene from OMWF for their "Best of the Year in TV" montage, Joss should have sent them the clip from "Going Through the Motions" where Buffy sings "Nothing here is real/Nothing here is right!"
What was your favorite HSQ moment from Buffy?
How about Angel?
Buffy: NAKED ANGEL DROPPING FROM ABOVE!
Angel: Pillowcase to the face!
Buffy: I'd like to test that theory (aka GILES)
Angel: Either Pillowcase to the face or Opening the door to show Justine bound and gagged
Angel: Drusilla re-vamping Darla.
Buffy: Giles showing up at the end of "Two to Go". That's the right episode title, right?
That is the right title, sj, and we you have very good taste.
That was the first one to pop into my head as well.
For Angel, it was "Somehow, I just can't seem to care."
For Buffy, there are so many moments, but because I found the series in the third season, I knew much of the story before I saw the moments, so my HSQ was low. I imagine, if I'd watched from the beginning, the moments would be times like Angel vamping out while kissing Buffy for the first time, Angel turning into Angelus, and Buffy killing Angel. A subtle HSQ moment, and the first I experienced in real time was Faith showing up at the Mayor's office. I knew she was lost, but I didn't know she was planning to get even more lost and with intention.
As for Angel, what P-C said--that "And yet, I just can't seem to care," from Reunion, when Angel locked all the lawyers in the wine cellar made me catch my breath. To be fair, Angel holding the pillow to Wesley's face had about the same impact on me.
