Puppet Show.
The Weight of the World.
Into the Woods.
As You Were.
Each of these episodes have redeeming points in my mind that will let me view them over and over again and still enjoy them. I think "WotW" is my favorite of that list followed by the classic "Puppet Show". Im not gonna argue the "AYW" because if I were to make a list of every episodes it would probably be at the bottom.
Seems like I am the only one in the world that like "WotW", ill defend it if need be. But it should be pointed out that I believe that Scott Weiland doesn't do drugs anymore so I have therefore been labeled dilusional by some.
I know Allyson will deathmatch you over As You Were (or at least, liked it a lot).
AYW did two important things for me: It featured the fantastic image of Buffy LEAPING over the counter to fight, and it was camp-tongue-in cheek send-up of squeaky clean annoying comic book heroes of yore.
I howl with laughter at the helicopter scene. It's so ridiculous, and it's meant to be.
I was also in this place:
Buffy is my favorite character. She was ripped out of heaven, came home to find two of her friends fucking in her dead mother's bed, the house falling apart, she was expected to be grateful and had to go get a shit job to support the fuckers who sat on their asses and wondered why she wasn't licking their toes in gratitude, and was a sickened, depressed, self-loathing lump fucking around with a scumbag who reveled in her self-denigration because it meant he could fuck her and tell her she was as worthless as he.
And I felt beaten with that, and I missed my girl, and then for twenty seconds she was Buffy, again. And Willow said, "I'm prepared to hate this woman...I'll hate her for both of us, then." And there was the friendship I missed, and the stupid monster of the week that I missed, and Buffy feeling like Buffy again for a brief minute. And that's all I had all season. A minute of my girl. And then she was back to Monotonous Mable, and not Bodacious Buffy. It went on too long, and there were too few moments to remind me that at the core, these were heroes, despite the pain they were feeling.
I really miss Buffy who at 16, beaten down by a different asswipe who tortured her friends, sword drawn and ready to kill her, when he taunted, "What's left?" she said, "Me." I miss her.
(Crap, Allyson may have just made me like AYW, or at least hate it less.)
CURSE YOU WEE ALLYSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dammit Craiggers, I loved you and then you had to go and mispronnounce "The Order of Taraka".
Although through his ignorance of the shows he seems to be hyping the Series Finale of Buffy.
Craig Kilborn is being a total Buffy fanboy in his opening segment. It's pretty obvious he's reading cue cards, but it's still pretty cute.
"Can you imagine Katie Holmes fighting the order of taraka?" Ha.
"Can you imagine James Marsters as Angel?"
Inconcievable!
Also they should have had Nerf Herder, or even better Kane
I"m so spoiler chicken that I'm taping.
Im taping too...but I really wanna watch.
Here's hoping for Boreanez and another chicken story.
Yeah if you are spoilerphobic, don't watch. They show clips.
Yeah, they just showed a short scene from the ep.
AH looks hot. But such goes without saying.
