Was anybody else really pissed that The Gift previously was nowhere to be found?
Yeah. I've never seen it - though I can't remember why I missed it when I saw the originial airing. That certainly would have been easy to include on the otherwise lame extras for S5 DVDs.
Scary-veiny Willow, trying to destroy the world.
Same here. As much as I usually hate people being mean to Buffy, this weird feeling of "Kick her ass!" surged up in me. I both identified with scary-veiny Willow
and
wanter her to win. For a second there, anyway.
And further proof of my latent evil tendencies is that I identified with Faith turning to the Mayor after she killed his assistant. I could totally understand the denial and not wanting to have to redeem herself to people who had never accepted her anyway.
And I identified w/Buffy through a lot of S6.
Hmm. Maybe I should worry more about me.
I cannot say that Xander continuing to end up in his basement in "Restless" has no bearing on me whatsoever.
Hmmm.... Yeah, I identified with Xander in Restless a little too much, too.
Weirdest...? Hm. Can't think of a "weirdest".
Moment that immediately leapt to mind? Xander, "The Body" and the fist in the wall.
Scariest:
Willow saying "Bored now." cause I've felt that. Even if I've only flayed someone in my heart, mind you.
Anyone feel like sharing "weirdest moment where I identified with a character on Buffy?"
Buffy "I have a cow on my head"
and the moment in Flooded, I think, where she is fighting monsters and is juggling vases and trying to get them to move into the kitchen where there were fewer breakables.
I was just thinking about this identifying thing in the car tonight. For the first 3 or maybe 4 seasons, the show did not necessarily seem, for me, to be about Buffy. She was the center of the universe, but I hardly identified with her at all-- nothing in her experence was ike mine. Season 6 for all the flaws, made me understand and feel Buffy.
Coming in late with most annoying previously:
"Let her cross over!"
SO ANNOYING.
Want previously's on DVD. Very angered by the lack of them. Bad Fox. Bad. No biscuit.
ETA: Also, loved Tara. Cried when she died. Meany.
I liked Tara. She was the only one on the show with common sense, barring her little oops in "Family."
