I would have trouble ranking them from most to least favorite. They are some of the best episodes in the series, imo and I love them all. Although I don't think that you can rate Grave separate from Two to Go.
The King of Cups expects a picnic. But this is not his birthday!
Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Buffy 4: Grr. Arrgh.
This is where we talk about Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No spoilers though?if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. This thread is NO LONGER NAFDA. Please don't discuss current Angel events here.

True, the finales are usually great, Grave being the least so. But still good. The way I seperate TTG and Grave is one had much more Giles.

Grave being the least so.
I really love Grave.

Grave just doesn't stack up for me compared to the rest...one of the top 20 ever, but not as good as the other finales. Maybe Graduation Day Pt 2 or Prophecy Girl, but not quite.

I love, love, love Grave. I'd put it second to Becoming among the finales.
(The rest would be Restless, Chosen, Prophecy Girl, Graduation Day and The Gift,in order.)

Oddly enough I didn't like Restless the first time I watched it, but in retrospect it is my favorite just because of the foreshadowing and altogether oddness of it all. The Gift has a special place in my heart because it had the biggest HSQ of all time for me at the end. I honestly did not hear that she was going to die and it hit me fucking HARD. I had never cried during a television show before in my life until that night and I did twice. Again at the end of Angel.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
Well, you could probably argue that Restless isn't much of a finale to S4, since it wasn't really *meant* as a finale to S4. It's an incredible episode, though.

I think that is why at the time it didn't jive with me so much.

The evil is this way?
Becoming II was the best finale IMO. Then it's a tie between Prophesy Girl (points taken off for some poor production values) and Restless.

Long ago in the music thread there was some minor questioning as to whether Spike and Buffy had theme music like Angel/Buffy and Riley/Buffy did.
Plei's post made me go home and watch the last four eps of S7 on Friday night (yes, even Empty Places).
And Spike and Buffy do in fact have theme music. In Touched when they are having the talk in the stranger's bedroom, the same music, though much quieter and orchestrated differently, that plays during the tearing-down-the-house sex scene from Wrecked is playing.
So I'm guessing that is their theme music. Though it isn't included on the new soundtrack as the A/B and R/B themes were on previous releases. But it wasn't used nearly as much as the former were.
And I just had to post that so I could stop thinking about it.
