But we don't see a whole lot of garlic use during the rest of the series do we?
This is such a vague memory that it's hardly worht sharing, but isn't there a scene where Buffy is sad because she just broke up with either Angel or Spike and she has garlic around the room to keep him out? I can see the image in my head, but I don't remember the story at all. Anyway, it's the one time I remember seeing garlic.
yep. that was after Angel's breakup. After Spike, she got Willow to put a spell on the house as if he were never invited in in the first place.
Actually, she got Willow to do that for Angel, in "Passion" if I'm not mistaken.
She may have again for Spike, with me missing it due to my eyes rolling like a Vegas slot machine.
I sort of remember the garlic after Buffy and Spike had sex in Wrecked (or was it Smashed, I get them mixed up).
I think the reason she did not use garlic much is that garlic repels rather than kills or disables vampires, and mostly she wants the vampires to get close enough that she can kill them.
Yeah, someone who can't flip a buick over by themselves would probably find vampire repellent more strategically useful.
I guess garlic and crosses were a bit redundant as repellant. Although it does seem like crosses only burn vampires so not really more effective than a torch (albeit a bit easier to carry in your pocket or hang from a necklace).
"Ripper" project still a go . . . but no further details.
I'm rewatching S7 for the first time, and I find I don't hate Kennedy nearly as much the second time around. Weird.

Because there's so much more to hate about season 7?
