I just watched the first five minutes of Lessons. Even though S7 may not have been the best, I just love Buffy. I haven't watched it since this summer sometime, and I'd sort of forgotten how great she is.
And now, back to the rest of the episode....
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

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.

God. I watched Same Time Same Place this morning and I forgot how funny (paralyzed!Dawn), creepy and grotty (Gnarl eating bits of Willow-flesh) and touching it is. (I actually had tears at the end of it -- you know, Buffy lending Willow her strength.)
I don't remember reacting this strongly to it the first time 'round -- or when catching it in repeat.

That Gnarl is so creepy. I always cringe. The way he moves is creepy, but also the stuff he says always gets to me. Yuck!

Yes! And then actually showing him stripping bits of skin and eating it.
Yech.

I'm very sad. I don't have the proper equipment to look at the dvd-rom that comes with the season 7 dvds.
Has anyone seen it? Do I need to be very jealous?

This and the creepy clown smile Not!Cassie gives just before she turns inside out and goes poof! are the creepiest bits of S7 for me.

Yeah. I still wonder how people who could write/film stuff like that could overlook the possibilities inherent in having the First Evil appear to all the Scoobies as Buffy to sow dissension in their ranks.
I so wanted to have someone gripe to Buffy about all her speechifying and have her reply "Speeches? What are you talking about? I haven't given a speech since the one I made to Dawn about the hardest thing in this world being to live in it."

This would have been so perfect. And it really has the ME sense of humor down.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
Seeing the high post numbers on this thread is also sad, because it's the last Buffy thread, isn't it?
Nooooo!
Seriously, can't we discuss old episodes? 'cause I, for one, came to buffy late, watched it from both ends at once, and am still missing bits of the beginning.

Glad I'm not the only one who thought that....

The paranoia level would have been wonderful, if the Scoobies had to keep poking Buffy to see if she was the First or not. Everytime she walked into the room, people would sidle up and nudge her or something. Or she could start knocking on tables first thing, just to prove it.
