Near the end of Earshot when Buffy's beating up the lunch lady if you pause slowly you can see a skinny male stunt double @ 42:03

obvious much
 
Hahah I laugh at that every single time. It's really ridiculous...they couldn't have found a really, really buff guy for that? Or a large woman who could withstand...punches? Buffy has had some pretty obvious stunt doubles (Faith's in Consequences for example) but this, by far, was the most hilarious.
 
Guys, THE BEST STUNT is in an Angel episode...can't remember wich one but all the gang was driving, Angel does a U-Turn and you can perfectly see that Cordelia is a badly made dummy ahahah makes me laugh so hard every time!

Either either neither neither. I can't remember the episode and it wasn't clearly stated who's stunt double it was.

Why comment on something you can't even remember and was unsure about?
Haha i used to smile at the lunch lady stunt double every time i watched the episode lol.
 
I've never thought about that! I'm going to look out for that as well as the one [MENTION=8401]david4wt[/MENTION] talked about when I watch the eps next time 🙂
 
Hehe. I don't see this stunt double thing being settled with logic. 😉
 
There are a lot of very obvious stunt doubles, but I don't think I've noticed the lunch lady's. I usually try my best not to look towards their faces during fight scenes cause I don't want to see the double's face and ruin the illusion. 😛
 
I looked, but I'm not sure if you got the timing right, because (on mine) at 42:03 Buffy is saying "If you're not too busy having sex with my mother!" To Giles. It's probably my error though.
 
Lol, though I realize the use of stunt doubles is perfectly necessary, it always makes me laugh when there's really obvious or bad ones 🙂 (e.g. the sword fight between Buffy/Angelus in Becoming...)

But the one that makes me laugh the most is the fight between Buffy and Faith in Graduation pt1 and I think that Faith's stunt double is actually just a man in a wig... lol.

Haven't noticed this one but I'll have to keep an eye on it now 🙂
 
I always laugh at that fight. I watched the episode with commentary by Jane Espenson and she even jokes that the stunt person doesn't do a good job lol
