Would you have liked to have seen any more flashbacks? Not just Angel and Spike, but with any character, if so what time period?
 
I think I prefer non flashback episodes. They're usually very good and important so I think we need them. But I enjoy more regular episodes. I think the amount of flashbacks is just fine the way it is.

I think it'd be very cool though to see flashbacks of Willow and Xander, for example. They have history too, even though they're not vampires.

But I would really really like (more) flashbacks from Buffy's past. We only got the one in Becoming, when Angel sees her and her first slay. I would like to know more about her past, before she came to Sunnydale. There are also the child Buffy flashbacks we've seen, but that's not the period I'm interested in.

Yep Im with Spikefan31, defo need more Giles/Ripper flashbacks! But otherwise Im fine with the amount of flashbacks. I would love to know more but in book or comic form rather than dragging the show back through time again.
 
I would love to see some flashbacks to the time between the school bus full of new Slayers leaving Sunnydale and the beginning of Season 8. We're supposed to believe that nothing of interest happened in that 12 to 18 month period, and I just find that awfully hard to believe. Other than Buffy and a group of Slayers robbing a Swiss bank and "rescuing" Xander from Castle Dracula, we know absolutely nothing.

Well, we know something strange happened to Dawn
Yeah, would have loved Giles/Ripper flashbacks.

Also wouldn't have minded more Dru & Spike back in the evil days. Just because . . . well I like them together. They amuse me.
 
Giles/Ripper flashbacks! I'd love to see them.

This!!! Definitely. 😀 At least once would have been kick-ass!

I think we got enough of the Fanged Four flashbacks. I would have liked to see an episode where Buffy was having a past life episode where she lived or dreamed that she was a Slayer from another time. The early promo spots for the show talked about Slayers from different time periods and I think it would have been so cool to explore that.

I definitely thought this would have been really cool, even to the point of doing it once each season. I think this would have been a great way to explore the concept of the Slayer.

I'm reading a buffy book all about past slayers. Its really good. This kind of thing would have made a great addition to the show!

Is it one of the "Tales of the Slayers" ones? I'm reading Volume four right now and it's pretty awesome so far.
I want some Willow/Xander flashbacks from pre-Buffy Sunnydale. I want some pre-Sunnydale Summers' family flashbacks (like how cool would it be to show a pre-Sunnydale Summers' family flashback with Dawn and then when Buffy finds out Dawn wasn't there, what actually happened?). And the Angelus/Dru flashbacks sound awesome. Also Ripper flashbacks
 
I really really really want to see Snyder's life before Buffy came to Sunnydale High. I want to know if he had another target before she got there, whom he left alone once Buffy came along and turned into his favorite new target.

nightshade agrees: Buffy arrived before Snyder, or did you mean in another school

Oopsie, you're right. So yes, another school. If he was a principal before he arrived to Sunnydale, and if he had another target at another school. I would really love to know that!
