I won't be able to rewatch "Doublemeat Palace" when I get there either.
I can usually think of at least one good thing to say about every Buffy episode, but nothing is coming to mind on that one.

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.

Well, Spike wears a MAGNIFICENT pimp chain, which was good for a laugh.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I totally and unironically like Spike's pimp chain. But I don't like Doublemeat Palace. Which, sadly, was the episode I tried to use to convert a good friend. He never watched another episode of Buffy, and I couldn't even blame him.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I think that's the episode I most dislike. Except possibly Bad Eggs.

Except possibly Bad Eggs.
but that has the terribly unconvincing, yet amusing bit with Giles and the "gas leak". Yes, it's 2 seconds out of the show, but it made me laugh.

We MST3Ked Doublemeat Palace here, as 3 lawyers from W&H, watching surveillance tapes from Buffy's life as punishment for screwing up minor things in the company. I also remember "Donna Martin Graduates!" getting in there, somewhere. And a lot of 12 year olds humor. And the Dead Parrot Sketch.
That was a good thing wrt this episode.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I did manage to convert a friend with that one - he was himself a recent fast food hell veteran, and the creepy, depressing orientation video they made poor Buffy watch had him simultaneously laughing, crying and screaming.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
The Doublemeat hat is good for a giggle. As is Xander's face when he thinks he ate people.

How did I just now learn that Halfrek actually was Cecily? I am so ashamed.
