I liked it a lot, all the way through. The beginning, with that girl in Frankfurt--cool! I'm very interested to see where that's going. Then I liked Buffy/Dawn interaction (is there a better way to do that without the slash? 'cause, ugh), and Buffy/Dawn/Xander (ack!) were very cute, and Spike was great, and I loved how it all came together, with Anya, and then the scene when Spike stabs Ronnie and is horrified... um, yeah, I really liked this episode. Can I watch it again now?

I can still hear his voice in my head.
(That sounds creepy, doesn't it?)
In this particular context, it does rather.
Yes. The "Australian Version", oddly enough.
A frog he went a wooing-oh "Hey ho" sang Rowley For whether his mother would let him or no With a roly poly gammon and spinach "Hey ho" sang Anthony Rowley!
So, is gammon and spinach a common meal in Britain? Social/cultural connotations behind it?
In all the excitement about Buffy, I almost forgot that Australia got the first episode of The Office tonight. Oh yeah!

Not in my family. However, Google UK provides 21 hits, of which slightly less than half are the children's song.
Angus, I understand what you mean about the crying. Since I've been taking anti-depressants, I cry a lot less (belieive it or not) but when I watched Angel Season ! "I Will Remember You" I was just a wreck. I felt like Buffy in the "But theirs was a perfect love" sobbing episode. Was that Triangle?
So, "The Office" really is good? I've seen ads on BBC-America but none of them seemed funny. (Plus, lots of Thursday night conflict.)
It transcends funny, sumi.

It goes all the way past funny into excrutiatingly painful and cringe-making. IMHO. I can't watch it.
