I rewatched the teaser and the last five minutes of The Gift last night, and then the end of "There's No Place Like..." Still makes me cry.
How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

it does take some of the power out of it. But even so- pretty powerful, huh?
Absolutely. But there was no HSQ, and the dramatic buildup was lost on me to some extent, because I was distracted by thinking, "Oh! This must be that scene! So he's going to... okay, yeah, wait, what did he say?" etc. etc.
I dislike being spoiled. Hmph.

I think I used up my tears for today earlier in the evening; I was reading a book in which a dog dies, and since that is pretty much the one thing guaranteed to make me ALWAYS bawl like a baby, I guess I was all cried out by the time Buffy came around.
Damn, I want to rewatch right now!

What did you hate, specifically, Rebecca? Or just 'everything about it'?

You weren't the only one, it turns out, RL.

It felt weird and off, pacing- and characterization-wise, all the way through. The final scene was pretty, but like Jess I'm at this point kind of bored of Spike, and definitely anti-B/S, so... didn't exactly save the episode for me.

I didn't notice anything about the pacing, which normally means that it's good; the charactrization seemed fine, good even; and being bored with Spike is as completely alien to me as not liking elves. But YepisodeMV. And I should note that I'm basically pro-B/S. Though not 'Spuffy', heaven help us.

Am-Chau, take note:
I agree with you.
