I watched OMWF on my DVDs for the first time in a long time. I'd never watched Fury's mini-doc or listed to Joss's commentary, so I did that, as well. Well, I fell asleep to Joss's dulcid tones, but, you know.
I forgot how much I love the musical. It came up recently here--we were probably discussing the poor set-up and execution of the reveal that Xander summoned Sweet. Whatev. I'm large with the OMWF love, again.
I was just thinking yesterday about episodes/movies/whatever that gave me True Joy, and OMWF is definitely one of those things. It was just right. (Well, the asspull is not right, but I forgive it.)
I choose to beleive that Joss had written something better, and it was cut for time.
I've been listening to it in work all week. My supervisor and I have been caught singing along very, very badly on more than one occassion.
The Pack is on F/X right now, and I'd forgotten how absolutely creeptacular and very, very sexy Xander was a bad hyena boy.
The saddest thing for me is, I was waiting all through the airings of S7 to get back to S1. Aside from a very episodes, S7 just doesn't do anything except make me furious on rewatch.
But then going back to the beginning is all the sweeter.

It's an easy theory to defend. It ran 8 minutes long as it is. And, the pendant was on the counter before Dawn got into the shop, so someone had it out. Also, Xander is twitchy in "I've got a Theory."
AmyLiz, I haven't watched s7 again. I've watched the first episode or two a couple of times, but I haven't gone straight through the season for either s6 or s7, which was always my ritual when I'd get the new DVDs. I haven't gone straight through Angel season 5, either.

awwwwwwww yeah! It was the only time I found Xander attractive. I love that scene where the pack comes over the hill . . . so hot.
The Pack is why I bought the S1 DVDs.

As brenda said, oh my god yes.
I haven't watched s7 again...I haven't gone straight through Angel season 5, either.
I'm still waiting to get S6 and (maybe, maybe not) S7 of BtVS on DVD, and I have nothing but S1 of Angel on DVD. (I know, I know!) I would actually kill to watch the last season of Angel straight through right now, because I loved it.
And I don't mind S6 of Buffy, either, but finances being what they are, I've been relying on F/X and TNT for all my Jossverse goodness.
Oh dear, they're attacking the car. Here comes our girl to save the day!
