lol - you're crazy - you know that, right? :)
Holy crap that's ambitious! 😀

But aren't there 144 episodes ?

Oh I see what you did, I´m sorry I didn't notice 🙂
 
I don't think I could do this, because after a while I just stop having an order of preference... like, I'd probably be all right up to the top 40, 50, but after that it'd be a struggle to put one episode above or below another.

Also, I don't think I could class the two-parters as one episode. I far prefer the second part of Becoming, for example, to the first part and they would rank quite differently. Same with Bargaining.
 
First off, kudos for such an effort. I'll never do that. Even if I had the energy, which I don't, I wouldn't be able to rank them as such. At best I might be able to do a top 10, 20 or 50 without ranking them...

The idea's simple. Rank all 139 episodes of 'Buffy', in order of your preference.
I see I'm not the only one wondering what went wrong, especially since I was too lazy to read the list. But I get it now.

Also, I don't think I could class the two-parters as one episode.

Ok, now my Buffy knowledge comes to a test. What's my line, Becoming , Graduation day and Bargaining are two parters which add 4 more episodes but I'm one short. Am I missing a two parter? I'm failing. Might it be Welcome to the Hellmouth/The Harvest, Surprise/Innocence or This years girl/Who are you see as one episode (probably the first)? How much easier things would be if I just went through your list...

I admit defeat. I suck. Possibly at math. 😉

Interesting top 10 - no season finales

Not simple, my friend! Not simple at all.
