Well, I personally prefer season 3 of Buffy to 2, but only by a hair margin. Season 2's stand-alones were much much worse.
Season 2 had the better finale though, much as I loved the mayor.
I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
you are probably right about that. The finale for 2 (for me) looms above all else.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
As much as I loved season three, I think 'Becoming I & II', 'Passion' and the s2 finale are some of the best things that have ever been on TV. 'Out of Gas' and a couple of other Firefly episodes were very good, but not quite that good.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I think what you saw aired real-time, first time, has a lot to do with its impact on you. There's something about discovering a show, devouring the weekly installment and waiting eagerly or anxiously, or both, for the next installment that has those episodes make a sharper impression. Having a place like this to discuss, and abilities to rewatch right away to deepen the impression, possibly adjust it with the additional perspective of other people's opinions, makes a big difference in how one feels and what one remembers about certain episodes and seasons of a show, as well. IMO, anyway.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, I think with that it`s probably just that Dollhouse is most recent.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
A question for the great minds here: a friend of mine just started watching Dollhouse, and she says that she thinks that the exact same scenes are being played in the first episodes of the first season every few scenes, quite randomly, but not in a flashbacky way.
Since it's been quite a while since I last watched the show, and since I have no memory or explanation to this - anyone here remembers this, and why?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
That doesn't sound familiar.
