that one Magnum PI that I can't remember the name of
"Did You See the Sunrise?"?
Buffy! If I wanted to fight, you could tell by the being dead already.

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.

Because that one and the one from the perspective of the soldier that they were fighting to keep alive (with the clock in the bottom corner) were great.
That's actually two different episodes. One is from the soldier's POV, but he's mostly OK once he gets past the OR; the other is when they only have x number or minutes (or something like that) before blood loss will cause brain damage (or some irreversible condition - possibly death).

That was 1974. (The one where Henry leaves.)

Ann, that's a ferret.
I give it a lot of points for showing just how awful the service industry can be.
I spent several summers working at fast food restaurants. But DMP seemed to be Buffy's rock bottom -- think of the sex scene by the dumpster. She's thoroughly depressed, there's no hope, and it isn't even heartbreaking in a good way.

My least favorite episode evar. Obvious, obnoxious and just plain yuck.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
The "Did you see the sun rise today?" ep?
Yes! Man, that one.
I have a Depressed Hopeless Fast Food Past fondness for DMP.
What show(s) is/are those?
Yeah, as Sumi says, Supernatural. I think the difference for me is that there's a sort of slickness to Joss's writing, a self-awareness that for me, distances or cools the emotional impact, where Kripke and Co., especially during S1 and S2, have a slightly less refined/thought out approach that at times works in their favor, allowing for accidental depths of utter emotional sincerity.

Hey. New board.
I think the best Buffy/Jossverse hour is Restless. The Body and Out of Gas come near. No single episode of Angel affected me that much, though I think the show as a whole may be my favorite of the three.
My best hour of TV full stop is either Restless or one of "A Trip to the Dentist" from Veronica Mars, "Desolation" from Joan of Arcadia (Season 1 finale), or "When You Were A Fever" from Gossip Girl (though that definitely has some of that higher-than-lowish-expectations sheen Plei was speaking of). I am unable to choose among these, as mood plays a very big factor.
