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.
There, you got it solved. Bet they are wondering why so many people are on their asses over this type of thing.
BTW, I just came home from eyeing goodies at Costco. Buffy, season 7 and Angel, season 5 are both there. 39.98 for each, I believe. Mine are not on my doorstep yet.
I got Buffy for $35, and Elf for $15. I was psyched.

Now my Buffy dvds are "shipping soon".
I just rented a couple of the discs from Netflix. Returned disc 1 today. That'll do it for me.
Ok, you know what, I'm watching
Bring on the Night
and I still feel completely validated in thinking that Giles was the First (and thus, real Giles dead) when this ran. (I wasn't a Buffista when this was on, so I'm sure that the topic has been done to death, but really.)
Buffy: We need to find the First!
Opens door.
Giles: Hello, Buffy!
Walks into the house wearing a light-up "I'm the First" t-shirt.
Ok, maybe not exactly. But, still.
(I wasn't a Buffista when this was on, so I'm sure that the topic has been done to death, but really.)
Actually, Victor (with Thessally's help I think) came up with the theory that, yes Giles was dead, but that Ethan Rayne had assumed Giles form either to help the First, or to keep the First from winning because, while Ethan may worship chaos, what the First was planning was a whole other thing (sort of like Spike wanting to save the world in Becoming).
It certainly fit with some of the clumsier things Giles was doing around then (pretending he could understand Chinese, the tacky line about the Scoobies worrying about him that he wasn't touching teenage girls).
I've still got my tinfoil hat on for this one - they never said it WASN'T Ethan.
wonders if this will be an x-post
Hmmm.
Keeps watching S7 DVDs.
Most of these eps I've only seen once, aside from Conversations with Dead People, Storyteller, and Chosen. (The first two I've watched since on FX, and I watched Chosen probably 3 times in the week it aired- once in the last meeting of my beloved Buffy club, once when my bro got home from college to see it, and once when we had to watch it so we could tape it off the TiFaux to give it to a family friend who had missed it.) And a lot of S7 blends together in my memory
blah blah speech blah blah Potentials blah blah mmm Spike......
and I think there is even an ep I didn't see. (Valentine's Day?), but I don't remember being satisfied as to the explanation of Giles not getting killed when an axe was about 2 centimeters away from his neck.
(Notes that soon there will likely be a flashback showing how Giles got away, which will turn on a lightbulb. I just don't remember buying it.)

According to Giles, (spoiler fonted in case you didn't want to know)
squeaky shoes.
Yeah. Right.
Suddenly I'm totally memfaulting on whether there was an actual flashback or not.
