Hey. New board.

For the purpose of testing video encoding codecs, I'm looking for a good 4:3 TV scene to look at. Naturally, I'm thinking that Buffy should be able to provide me something, and the easiest thing to get as a single chapter from the DVDs is one of the opening teasers.

Thus, here's my question: What Buffy episode has the best opening teaser? It'd be nice if it has a teensy bit of action, but it's not required - I'm doing "Duel of the Fates" from SWE1 as well, which has plenty of action. I just want to do something fun, and if it convinces somebody who's testing the files that Buffy might be worth checking out, then even better.

Ideas?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Offhand, I'd say Buffy's dream sequence from the beginning of "Surprise."

"Lie to Me"

The evil is this way?

Best teaser: the first ("Welcome to the Hellmouth").

Hey. New board.

Hmm. Thanks for the input. Think I'll go with "Lie to Me."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Did you cry?

I think it's the only episode that makes me cry.

Okay, fun (or not so fun) question-- what's the one Buffyverse line that always reduces you to tears (or would reduce you to tears if did that sort of thing)

Mine-- I can't breathe.

I felt your heart beat.
