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.

Which is one of the reasons why Clovis thinks you're a good minion.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Well now. Bunnies have been disastrous for Australia. I wish to learn more about how devil bunnies will affect the Australian environment.

move out and draw fire
I still don't feel strong enough to rewatch, and this is me being within an hour's drive of visiting both my still-living parents. I can't even imagine how hard the episode hits someone who's lost one or both.
My mom died when I was in high school, and my dad died a few years ago, and I have to say that Buffy's experience in The Body didn't resonate with me, beyond what Beverly said about the stress reaction of one sense coming to the forefront. I think this is because in both cases my folks had been ill and it was very expected.
What did resonate was the responses of the friends. I never know what to do at funerals or for the bereaved, and I've seen that that is the case for most people, no matter what age. What Hec said about the cultural lack of a death protocol resonates also; my father died at home, and even though it was expected, no one knew quite what to do when it happened.

I feel bad because if you read the scripts they did spend some time developing Dawn into a more interesting, mordant character, but her lines kept getting cut.
Were they mostly irrelevant to the stories, so ended up being a casualty of episode length, or, and I'd be surprised at this, do you think it was a delivery problem on MT's part a la Mark Blucas? Because lord knows season 7 I would have taken any and all mordant Dawn over Buffy's inpet motivational speechifying.

I hear they have a strong anti-poison-toad platform.
