Heh. That's on the DVDs, I think.
'Time Bomb'
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.
I never watched it. I need to be better about seeing all my bonus footage, clearly.
The Angel S3 DVDs have really great bonus features. The Page-to-Screen featurette is awesome.
haha! that was adorable.
Huh. Did we know that Felicia Day (the potential Vi) is doing a web series on YouTube about gamers?
That was hilarious!
So my wife bought me the Chosen collection and we started watching the first few episodes last night. A few observations:
They were so young back then. Besides Buffy, Xander, Willow and Cordelia, we see "young" Angel, Darla, and Amy. Joss points out that while SMG and AH had like a decade of acting experience by then, NB and DB were relatively green, but they leveled out nicely. In these first episodes, SMG is outstanding, NB and AH are good although they don't seem natural yet, and DB's first scenes are not his best.
Giles tells Buffy that as a Slayer, she should be able to "sense" vampires. Did that power ever manifest?
Buffy tells Xander that garlic works, and we even see garlic in her weapons chest when she gathers supplies before hitting the Bronze. But we don't see a whole lot of garlic use during the rest of the series do we?
Did that power ever manifest?
her secret power is PMS! ( sorry couldn't resist)
I don't think that it manifested in an obvious way.
Buffy sussed out a few deep cover vampires over the years, but I think it was more due to growing experience and expertise than anything supernatural.
I think Joss gave up the whole "sensing vampires via menstrual cramps" thing. Instead Buffy spotted them via her keen fashion sense -- vampire fashion sense tends to be centered around the time they were killed. Buffy can spot the out-of-fashion. I wonder how many live people who are simply out of date this resulted in her killing? Plot bunny for anyone who wants one.
