Great episodes that are hard to watch

[Tasha]

Hells Bells, god it took me years to actually not skip this one whilst watching them all through. Now i can watch it, it used to break my heart when i was younger. 🙁
I still don't like to watch it very much.
The body- too depressing, smg's acting is the only thing that is good about this ep.
Chosen - I don't like last episodes of anything. 😛

I like the reasoning behind finding it difficult to watch chosen. I particularly don't like watching the very last part where you just see Buffy smiling. You know then its the end of an era and your favourite show is done and dusted probably for ever.

In hindsight, for me, only the deaths that are permanent are hard for me to watch. "Not Fade Away" & "Hero" especially since "That's all folks..." and "Am I done?" are spoken by actors who died tragic deaths shortly thereafter. :'(

"You're Welcome" has been easier since Cordy showed up as an ascended being in AtF. And of course Joyce & Tara dying 🙁

I find Wes' 2nd death in AtF arguably more sad since this time, Angel's price for victory is Wes' demise. At least in NFA, Wes had a shot at survival. I do believe that Wes will return eventually. And that's backed up by Joss saying any ongoing series would need Wes to come back, and also the fact that W&H can reanimate him whenever they want.

Graduation Part 2 where Angel walks away from Buffy is always so frustrating to watch. I always find myself thinking Buffy run over to him before its too late, or Angel speak to her for christ sake, don't leave it like that.
