I know this episode does not quaify as important toward the series storyline, but I found it to be kind of funny.

Buffy smelling Xander--Willow acting as if she cared what that guy was saying then saying she didn't--Willow thinking Buffy went for group sex--Buffy smacking the guy over the head with the plank of wood at the end...

Again, not crucial, but really funny stuff to me.
 
i love beer bad and how buffy and speak caveman its very funny espically when giles and xander find her.

Buffy: beer?.... buffy want beer?
Giles: you cant have beer
buffy: want beer.
xander: dont make caveslayer angry
buffy: buffy strong
giles: yes
buffy: get beer

sorry if any of that is wrong straight from memory
 
I liked this epi as one of the funniest of S4. And the quote "beer's bad" remains in my mind.... And I use it now for quite everything....
O! And the moment when she hurts Parker... I was soooo... YEAH!!!!! Well done!
 
Heh, I can't say I like this episode that much. But I agree it's funny. And it was kind of fun 'cause one of my friends (who doesn't like BtVS) told me that she had seen this ep on TV and that BtVS seemed kinda good 😀
 
I loved this episode! I found it quite amusing but at the same time typical for what girls and boys do when rejected by a man. How many of us have gone out and got plastered after a rejection? I have many times. Only difference is that we don't have some weirdo barman spiking it!
 
i love this ep! it's def one of my faves from thr series.
i don't drink alcohol, so i can't agree with the post above, but i do use the phrase 'Beer Bad' when i'm out watching my friends get drunk!
 
i loved this episode. and its so true. beer does funny things to people. my boyfriendwas acting much like a caveman the other night after some beer. but id had some too so it cant have been magic beer 😛
 
This is a great episode. I love it. It has some classic lines that even my boyfriend says, such as "Foamy"! It's great.
 
I loved it because Parker finally got what he deserved-a good telling off and a smack over the head! He was soooo annoying when he panicked in the fire!
 
I agree, this was a funny episode. And a lot of it was actually a pretty good depiction of college life (hey I've been there!)- like that scene at the end where those bozos are locked up in the van. Binge drinking at college goes on ALL the time.

Cheers to Xander, not for faking an ID to get the bartending job but for taking care of Buffy. And cheers to Willow too, still hurting from her own loss of Oz but still with the thoughtfulness and strength to stick up for her friend.
 
This episode stinks. I'd give it a "1". I don't know if this will be my most disliked episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, because I still have Seasons Five, Six, and Seven to work through.

As capable an actress as Sarah Michelle Gellar is, she is really forcing her way through this. The script wallows in ridiculous excesses and makes for pure drudgery. This is a Buffy episode worthy of an asterisk.

100% agree. HATED this episode. Almost as bad as Where The Wild Things Are.
i liked this episode bar...... beer good 🙂 ( toutches picture of beer on screen..... want beer....wanders and starts caveman drawing on wall....)
 
I'm afraid I gotta agree with Iron dreamer. I wasn't impressed. I found it to be one of, if not THE poorest episode of buffy the vampire slayer...ever.

not one of my favorites. beer bad bad....
ok yea this episode didnt exactly have any importance to the seasons storyline but it was funny because Buffy was drunk and also i guess being drugged or woteva you would call it to make her act that way,anyway she was acting really funny.plus i thought it was REALLY funny when Willow was pretending to understand what that guy was talking about and then he tried to make a move and she just totally kicked him to the ground,i was cracking up.she was just like please give me a break do you really think i would fall for that.it just made me laugh.
 
It wasn't any kind of "best" episode but I thought it was a well constructed satire-statement on the irresponsible drinking that goes on in college. Those drinking scenes should have a familiar ring for anyone who's been there.
 
I thought this was the worst Buffy episode of all-time. Yes it has a few (very few) good moments, but I found it very boring and kinda lame.
 
I enjoyed this episode (maybe because I'm a drunk!). I think it is far superior to the episode when Riley and Buffy were in a room having sex for the whole show.
 
Gotta say, i didn't like this episode.
I thought that one or two parts were cool, Xander and Willow(to name a couple) but over all not that great....mind you, give me this over Reptile Boy or Go Fish any day.....
What i mainly dislike about this, is i'm bored of how shows get really preachy about things.
Like here, if you drink bad things will happen.
Yeah we get it, the Whedonverse writers want to educate people, but come on, do they have to constantly ram down our throats that certain things are bad for us.....i'm sure that Whedon et al enjoy the occasional drinky-pooh.

You want to treat the fanbase as people in the real world, show them young adults drinking moderatelt and enjoying themselves.....
I mean in a later Episode they have Dawn say 'Drinking is for losers' or something, i mean get off the high horse people, i know a well functioning group don't make for great TV, but that doesnt mean you have to be preachy all the time!

EDIT: Speaking of Reptile Boy....another episode with the perils of drinking....Jebus Wept, we get it, underage drinking leads to unsavoury acts.........but sometimes it only leads to a sore head!!!

in the eppy where dawn says the loser thing everyone else was drinking it was pretty middle of the road...
I never watched reptile boy and from what i read of it i didn't miss much
but regarding beer bad well the only funny thing about it was Giles trying to explain CavegirlBuffy oh and Buffy going all cave girl lol but apart from that it was not very good in terms of drama, i was bored watching most of it.
No offence to those who liked it though.
