I never thought Guise would be considered underrated.. it was a great episode.
I recently saw The Girl in Question and thought it was hilarious, are there people that don't like it?
I really dislike it. But that's not surprising. One of the reasons is you cant have a SMG stand-in. Either have her in the episode and mention her, or don't and don't. To have a body double further cheapened the episode in my opinion.

Ah ok. I will agree that the Buffy stand in's in S5 are terrible but it doesn't ruin the episode for me cause it's so brief. I guess I just buy into the cheap humor easily. lol.

There are other things that ruin the episode for me. The episode serves as a microcosm for the larger problem with the show. I just listed the one problem I figured I wouldnt have to argue about as much!
Which episode is The Girl in Question? Someone tell me so that I can almost certainly disagree with Mr. Pole😀

Would add Pangs to the Buffy list.

It's where Angel and Spike go to Italy on a mission and to stalk Buffy. lol
They go to Italy.. the head in the duffle bag.. Buffy dancing with the Immortal. Riding the Vespa. Wolfram & Hart Italian branch.
 
SMG was NEVER supposed to be in this episode so I have no problem with the body double, seemed convincing enough really

To me if they mention her, and show 'her' dancing, then it really needs to be HER. But.. I am pedantic.

Didn't matter to me, it wasn't about her it was about Spike and Angels feelings for her..but that's me 🙂

I do like the Italian branch of W&H and that lady. "we speak of them no more!" *side spit* lol.

I can kind of agree with this. I don't think they needed to show us her dancing. Because it's like if she's that close to them, then we really should see SMG at some point. So they could have just done without that and just mention that she's there, but we can't see her through the crowd.

I agree with this, which is why I love the episode and the body double doesn't bother me.

That right there was the only redeeming thing about the episode. I did like her.

Haha, yea she was great! I loved the guys reaction to her. I kind of want to watch that episode again just for her. lol
I sort of got over TGIQ when S8 revealed it wasn't actually Buffy they saw dancing. A cop out after the backlash the fans gave over Buffy apparently dating someone like The Immortal, but it was a cop out I thought worked.

As for the OP:

BTVS - Nightmares, The Prom, Pangs, Triangle, Normal Again, Potential

ATS: The Ring, War Zone, Dead End, Double or Nothing, Origin, Underneath

I oft forget about nightmares. It was a good episode.
I think they were playing with the audience in making them believe that Buffy would make an appearance in The Girl in Question. Not sure I have a problem with it either. It is maybe one of the weaker episodes of S5 but still has its moments.

The Puppet Show! 🙂

Oh, hell yeah! That is a gem of an episode, in some ways my fave of the first season.
