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.

Doyle's death was the best. Yes.

Worst was Fred's. OMGWTFever. Agency-stripping drivel, it was.

Also, wasn't Cordy in a coma until her final appearance season 5? If so, she had a great send-off then.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Nope.

Mark liked "The Zeppo," and I wanted to just share this bit of Markness (uncapslocked for your eyes):

Holy shit that guy is dead. That guy just came out of a grave. Did that just happen? Is this real life? What the fuck is going on? Oh my god, it’s a group of zombie frat boys. Why is this so funny to me? You’re dead, how can beer even have an effect on you? Why do you want a cake so badly? I mean, don’t get me wrong, cake is delicious and I would never truly judge you for wanting one after being dead for so long. That’s a good first choice of food. But you’re dead. Can you even taste cake???

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Mark's reaction w/r/t the cake was pretty much mine, too. Well, it wasn't as well thought-out. It was more like, "Cake, WTF?"

I kind of want to see cake zombies now, moaning, "Caaaaaaaake."

By the way, Steph, Mark will be in Cleveland on Sunday.

So close! And yet so far. Plus, Hellmouth-y.

Appropriate! Wait, I don't remember whether the Cleveland Hellmouth has been mentioned yet. SPOILERS.

Today's off-topic thread is about whether jelly donuts are the worst or awesome. Also, one bold person has come out against donuts altogether.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Book died fighting to protect the home and the people he loved. He failed, but it was a good death, and he got to see one of his best friends one more time before he died, too. We just didn't get to see him being all heroic, which is too bad.

I have to say Fred's death was the worst, because it still bothers me, and I didn't even like the character that much. She and Cordelia were both consumed by a god-like monster, but Fred's death was worse because Cordy's spirit continued, as we saw. Fred was just *gone*, and that's beyond the not-fair-ness of a sudden undeserved death, like Tara's. I wanted to grab Illyria and squeeze it until Fred came out.

Best death was Buffy's (second). She didn't have to die, she could have saved the world by tossing the little cuckoo's egg off the platform, and it would have been justified, too - one girl who wasn't really a person to save the universe, that's a bargain. Buffy sacrificed herself not just to save the world, but to save her sister.
