Surprised?
Or disappointed?
JZ, thank you for linking to that blog, really excellent reading and makes me want to break out my season 5 dvds.
Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I had to go Googling to remind myself of "The Weight of the World," which doesn't speak well for how memorable it was. Still, a lot of stuff happened; it's just that they had almost no episodes left in the season, so the whole thing was crammed with Things We Forgot We Really Need Before We Head Into The Finale, and it was about as unexciting as any massive infodump usually is.
Except for that moment when Doc's eyes popped open again. I distinctly remember screaming like a thing that screams when that happened.

I dunno, it's certainly been years but I remember there's a lot of "Willow watches Buffy do the same thing over and over in catatonic-ville," which seems more like padding than crammed. At the start of the episode Dawn's been captured and they need to stop Glory. At the end of the episode, Dawn's been captured and they need to stop Glory.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I remember there's a lot of "Willow watches Buffy do the same thing over and over in catatonic-ville,"
I think that's all I remember from that episode....

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
I remember there's a lot of "Willow watches Buffy do the same thing over and over in catatonic-ville,"
see, I found that to be hypnotic and wonderfully simplistic, coming from someone who is always deep in their own thoughts and if someone were to speculate as to why I started crying or freaked out or made a certain decision, they wouldn't know, because the catalyst was in my head. So I got that.
That really resonated for me.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
It also had the whole.
"So you're saying Ben and Glory have some kind of connection?" part that I never find not funny.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Which was the episode that we rewrote? Because I think that was far worse than Weight of the World.

Hey. New board.
Spiral was bad, but you certainly can't say nothing happened. It had horsies!
