Starting Season 1

[Spirit_Of_Fred]

One thing that I hated about this episode was "The Three" Ooo so they are so revered and scary that Buffy and Angel fight em off, live, maybe a cut or two hehe but live!
Come on! Why talk about powerful characters and then bring them in to die in ten minutes... Not very fun for me to watch.

in a word, agreed 🙂. in more words 🙂p), they should have either made less of a big deal out of them, or made it a harder/longer fight with buffy and angel to prove the three were all they were said to be, even if they lost the fight that time.

Why do Vampires follow people who would have them killed after they've been alive for so long. I never understood that.

um...good question. to have a hand in killing the slayer? maybe the master was offering some sort of reward if they succeeded?

Another thing.. the vampires are all three wearing armor. Why don't all vampires lay on some armor.. so they don't have a possibility of being staked. Hehe I don't know why things like this are brought up and then never really seen again.

another good point. i have no answer, or even fanwank, for this one :silly:.

Anyways enough about what I didn't like! Here is what I loved! : Angel and Buffy! Bangel!

Up in Buffy's bedroom I love their chemistry.The looks the eyes, the kiss(later on in the episode up there!) "You even look pretty when you go to sleep."
Such a happy moment between the two of them when she sleeps in her bed and he sleeps on the floor inches away from her. Aww.

:: red :: < (as a side note, its much more convinient to use the ones i know the codes for, such as that one 😀)

"Hunk can mean a lot of things, bad things and -- and when it said your eye are penetrating, I meant to right Bulging."

"The A doesn't even stand for Angel for that matter. It stands for Achmed a charming foreign exchange student so that whole fantasy part has nothing to even do with you at all."

hehe, defensive buffy. i love that line. :lmao:

And then they look into each other eye's so entranced and kiss!! Their first kiss! So beautiful, and then.. oh noes! Buffy's cross, Angel's vampireness kaboom!

awesome scene with the vampire kaboom, and one of the classic and best bangel kisses! :heart: hehe, i sound like such a hard-core bangelite! you need to get to spike so i can prove im truly 50/50 😛.

Loved the first scene between Darla and Angel. So dark, strange, Darla all hot and horny for him, Angel all Buffy love struck.

Love the past history they have and that they are finally talking to each other after so much time.

this is the first time it even implies their history, yeah? maybe they didnt get into that before because they didnt know he was a vampire yet, and thus couldnt decide that he and she had a history. i wonder what wouldve happened if he hadnt killed her here......:thought:. things would have changed a bunch on angel, thats for sure 🙂.

Oh boy how pissed she must have been when she found out Angel and Buffy kissed.

wow, that thought never even crossed my mind, hehe. i was always just thinking she was up there scheming; never wondered what she'd think of the big bangel kiss...

After she is "bitten" she screams Angel comes a running and catches her. The oh noes Buffy comes in. Her face, Wow just wow. Perfect.

exactly. perfect execution. but aww, so sad 🙁! im always like 'buffy, don't let your eyes decieve you!!!!!!!' hehe.

"You have no idea what it's like to have done the things I've done and to care." 10/10. Hehe.
"I can walk like a man but I'm not one."

mhm, mhm. classic quoteage 🙂.

I couldn't believe he would kill her. I can believe it at this point in the series but not after she is flushed out later on.

hm...i think i disagree with this. there were a lot of factors changed when she crossed over to angel. but, i dont think those are all factors that would make him less likely to kill her here. i think some would even make him more likely. just for one example, he didnt have buffy anymore when he went to LA, but here he loved buffy, and as an added bonus, buffy was in danger because of darla. i think, even knowing what i know from angel, him actually killing her here was realistic.

And he has her cross burned into his skin.

love it, love it, love it. so sweet!

Angel - 9/10

a well deserved rating if there ever was one 😀.

((Likie this way better?))

if you're asking me, then yes 🙂. i like how you included more of your thoughts and less summary. it was interesting to read. i only wish i had more interesting things to say in response 😛.

and Dlou, i had so many smileys this time, the smiley limit made me take some out! i dont think it can get better than that.....(i regret the inability to have a smiley right here).

I Robot... You, Jane - Episode 8

Wow just wow. Yep that is all I am willing to say. This was an actual Buffy episode. Eww.
The only thing I liked was Giles and the teacher lady's chemistry , innuendo and attraction to one another. Very fun to watch.
"Well I don't dangle a cork screw from my ear."
"That's not where I'd dangle it."
Also "The smell" "Smell is the most powerful trigger to the memory there is." I loved his philosophy towards computers! It was so Giles!


That and I also enjoyed the final scene between Buffy Willow and Xander. These next lines would echo throughout the rest of the series.
"Lets face it none of us are ever going to have a happy normal relationship."
"We're doomed."
"Yeah."
They are all laughing, and then slowly realize they are all doomed!! Hehe!

Please help me if I missed anything. :lmao:

I Robot... You, Jane - 4/10

The Puppet Show - Episode 9

I loved this episode.

The idea behind it was so well planned out. There were so many ways it could have gone that it made even the watcher guess who was what.
Loved it!
Loved Principal Snyder listening in on Buffy and gang and making them join the talent show.
"Real anti social types." Hehehe and once he tells them they are to join the talent show.
"What?" "No!" "Please!" Hilarious scene and have I mentioned I love the actor who plays Snyder!
Arman Shimmerman(sp) Is an amazing actor! Anyone who hasn't seen Deep space Nine go run off and watch him as Quark.
"I saw a dummy it gave me the wig.. there really wasn't a story there." I love how this show is comfortable doing that without flushing out a real reason.

Snyder talking to Giles on the way in was funny, and serious all at the same time. Hilariously done. Why I love the character.

Principal Snyder: "That's the kind of wooly: headed liberal thinking that leads to being eaten.

Principal Snyder: "There are things I will not tolerate: students loitering on campus after school, horrible murders with hearts being removed... and also smoking."

Giles: "My investigation is somewhat hampered by a life in the theatre.
Buffy: "Uh, priority check, Giles... talent show... murder!

Cordy: "Eh, What?"
Giles: "Oh, I'm sorry. Um, your hair, uh--"
Cordy: "There's something wrong with my hair? Oh, My God." :lmao:
Giles: "Xander was right, it worked like a charm."

Loved Sids character as well. It's so fun to think he is a bad guy for half the episode.
Ooo hehe and how the gang didn't even think he was 'alive' for half the episode too!
I really liked how we found out he was alive and Xander jumps screaming when he is missing and Giles looks down and screams at his own feet too. Best scene in the episode!!!
Really enjoyed when Buffy caught sid and they finally came to the realization they were on the same side.
Still throughout the episode that is in question , which is why I loved it.
Ooo and the Horny dummy thing, priceless. Who doesn't love a horny dummy!

Sid: "Look at you, you're strong, athletic, limber... nubile... I'm back.
Buffy: "So that horny dummy thing really isn't an act, is it?
Sid: "Nope.
Buffy: "Yuck.

Buffy: "This means whatever's out there still needs a healthy, intelligent brain.
Xander: "In other words, I'm safe!

I didn't even see the magician guy as the bad guy until he was the bad guy. It was really great watching a mystery unravel.
We even get to see Snyder in the shadows and are even fooled into believing he might be responsible!
"Form the power circle!" I loved how the puppet knew what a power circle was and Giles didn't.
It was really strange, yet fun, to watch Giles be so stupid while being so smart.
"Gee Mr. Giles you're really smart. Can you help me?"
"Giles can handle himself, he is really... smart."
"What exactly is the trick?" "Trick?" "Mark, ma ma.. Mark.." Hehehee
Getting tied up and placed under a guillotine and almost getting his head chopped up.
Great little part of this story and I really liked watching it... up until the boy turned into the weird looking monster that Buffy killed easily. But it was cool seeing him die through his own creation.

Aww and Sid stabbing the demon in the heart and falling over dead. Aww!! Then Buffy picked him up and the curtain opens!
Principal Snyder: "I don't get it. What is it, avant-garde?
During the end credits when the gang does their little play, Freaking drop dead bring tears to your eyes funny can't describe it!!
Willow runs away and Xander puts on a stupid grin while Buffy fills the gap and places her hand on him.
I'm glad shot it! So we could die laughing!

Last little tid bit: "Everyone look at me like I'm in a bunny suit because that;s how stupid I fell saying this."
Oh yea, they mentioned a Bunny suit. *Hugs Anya* Hehe can't wait to get that far down the road.

The Puppet Show - 8/10

Nightmares - Episode 10

Not my favorite episode. But not horrible either. Very strange.
Blow through this one hehe I really want to start watching Season 2, and must finish writing about these episodes first!
Hehe. Sorries if it becomes a little short. I'll be making a huge one about the finale : king :

I loved the idea behind the episode, and all of the nightmares that everyone started to experience.
Giles not being able to read was sad, and seeing his fear of his slayer dieing too.
Willow fearing spiders and when they appeared all over Wnder scared me too.
I would sooner kill myself than have that happen to me!
"It's funny if you're me."
Cordelia with her hair and chess team was hilarious!
Xander fearing that he would be naked infront of class out of the blue and running away! Great fear!
Xander with his clown was weird and I would run too if a crazy clown with a knife was chasing me!
Aww and Buffy, sweet Buffy turning into a vampire. Saddest thing in the entire episode was seeing how much she was afraid of that, and how much it hurt her.
And before that when she feared why her parents broke up and her dad said it was because of her. ::crying2:
Buffy also having no idea what the answers were to a history test, weakest of all the fears hehe.
Oh that and Willow being afraid of singing which isn't that weak it's just scary to be up there infront of everyone for sure.
Not as scary as being chased by a murdering clown... but hey, still scary.
Best fear was Buffy's. Seeing her as a vampire, she is so sad in this scene. It is so hard to watch!
Ooo and great for a music video! Hehe

Anyways I'm never the biggest fan of 75% of these episodes where they are leading up to a big bad fight and she easily kicks there butts after a minute scene, usually less.
But they actually had more after that with the whole "Lucky 19" thing.

"He's awake." "What?"
"You said it was my fault that we lost."
Just wow that a guy put that kid into a coma. Bastard.

A few great lines in the episode:

Xander: "Um our dreams are coming true."
Giles: "Dreams? That would be a musical comedy version of this." *wink * *wink* *wink*

Giles: "Willow, do shut up."

Xander: It'll be faster if we split up to look for her.
Giles: Good idea.
Willow: Uh, faster, but not really safer.

Vampire Buffy: Well, we better hurry... 'cause I'm getting hungry.
Xander: That is a... joke, right?

Buffy: That was kinda heroic Xander, grabbing him and all.

Willow: When Buffy was a vampire, you weren't still, like, attracted to her, were you?
Xander: Willow, how can you... I mean, that's really bent! She was... grotesque!
Willow: Still dug her, huh?
Xander: I'm sick, I need help.
Willow: Don't I know it.

Nightmares - 7/10

I Robot... You, Jane - Episode 8

Please help me if I missed anything. :lmao:

You missed my favourite scene.
Buffy: I get your point. Oh, this guy could be anybody. He could be weird, or crazy, or old, or... He could be a circus freak. He's probably a circus freak!
The delivery by SMG is so great. I love how she gets from could be to probably.

I have understand that many don't like this episode but I think it's great.
Might just be me liking to see Willow the computer nerd 🙂

/SK

 

[Spirit_Of_Fred]

ooh, three. this makes me happy 😀. at first i just saw nightmares and thought 'how did he end up skipping two of them?!?!?!?!?' 😛

Also "The smell" "Smell is the most powerful trigger to the memory there is." I loved his philosophy towards computers! It was so Giles!

great scene. you sum it up perfectly when you say its "so giles" 🙂.

Please help me if I missed anything. :lmao:

hm...let me think. well, i feel like you're missing something, but i cant think of a thing, so perhaps you're not :silly:.

There were so many ways it could have gone that it made even the watcher guess who was what.

hehe, mysteries sometimes bug me, but perhaps that's 'cause im so bad at solving them 🙂. anyway, i agree. it was well-thought out, and that made it good, 'cause it kept me guessing and trying to figure out who the bad guy was. sometimes, i watch it again after not having seen it, and i still cant remember all the twists! 😀

Principal Snyder: "That's the kind of wooly: headed liberal thinking that leads to being eaten.

to snyder, 'and how do you die, again?' 😛. ah, irony.

"Giles can handle himself, he is really... smart."

hehe, lightbulb moment :lightbulb. (there is a lightbulb smiley! im so pleased! 😀)

During the end credits when the gang does their little play, Freaking drop dead bring tears to your eyes funny can't describe it!!
Willow runs away and Xander puts on a stupid grin while Buffy fills the gap and places her hand on him.
I'm glad shot it! So we could die laughing!

:lmao: :fighting1

Xander with his clown was weird and I would run too if a crazy clown with a knife was chasing me!

you didnt think him facing his fear and punching out the crazy clown was a great xander moment? : erm : or you just didnt mention it?

Aww and Buffy, sweet Buffy turning into a vampire. Saddest thing in the entire episode was seeing how much she was afraid of that, and how much it hurt her.

:cry:

Ooo and great for a music video! Hehe

oh, sure, come up with your own ideas for music videos! i mean, who does that?! 😉

 

[GATEGOD]

oh, sure, come up with your own ideas for music videos! i mean, who does that?!

Okay here is the sitch, I can watch all the rest of the episodes, make a review like this for all 100 some odd episodes there are, or I could finish off with season one, start getting clips from season one, then 2 and so on until I have enough to make some music videos. Hehe what do ya think? Last time I only reviewed season 5! I guess every time I rewatch it I'll review a season at random :lmao: Hehe no?

Out of Mind, Out of Sight - Episode 11

Fun little concept, bad little episode.

I did like that the girl went invisible because everyone was ignoring her. Really sad, until she starts hurting people, and laughing.
Then you just start to hate her for hurting Buffy and Cordy, as well as Harmony, that weird kid cordy was dating etc.
The ending was great too when the men in black take her off, haha and she goes to an 'invisible' school and learns to become an assassin! Awesome, hilarious, and weird!
Still, the episode just felt a little weak to me.
A couple small lines I did enjoy:

SNYDER: Dead? Of course not. What are you, ghouls? There are no dead students here. This week. Clear back, make room, all of you.

Giles: A girl on campus with the ability to become invisible.
Xander: That is so cool!
Willow: Cool?
Xander: Well, yeah, I would give anything to be able to turn invisible. Well, I wouldn't use my powers to beat people up, but I'd use my powers to protect the girls' locker room.

Giles: There's an...invisible girl terrorizing the school.
Angel: That's not really my area of expertise.
Giles: Nor mine, I'm afraid. Uh, it's fascinating, though. By all accounts it's a, a... a wonderful power to possess.
Angel: Oh, I don't know. Looking in the mirror every day and seeing nothing there. It's an overrated pleasure.


Now this is why I actually enjoyed part of the episode. I loved Cordelia in it. Eek I can't believe I just said that!
But it's true, Cordelia was picture perfect throughout this episode.
I especially loved how we get to see a much more human side to Cordelia at this point that I know will become more apparent in future episodes.
Really fun to watch and she delivered some tremendous lines. Much love.


Cordelia: So, are you saying she's invisible because she's so unpopular?
Buffy: That about sums it up.
Cordelia: Bummer for her. It's awful to feel that lonely.
Buffy: Hmm, so you've read something about the feeling?
Cordelia: Hey! You think I'm never lonely because I'm so cute and popular? I can be surrounded by people and be completely alone. It's not like any of them really know me. I don't even know if they like me half the time. People just want to be in a popular zone. Sometimes when I talk, everyone's so busy agreeing with me, they don't hear a word I say.
Buffy: Well, if you feel so alone, then why do you work so hard at being popular?
Cordelia: Well, it beats being alone all by yourself.


Cordelia: Buffy, I, uh, I, I know we've had our differences, with you being so weird and all, and hanging out with these total losers... Well, anyway, despite all of that, I know that you share this feeling that we have for each other, deep down...
Willow: Nausea?
...
Cordelia: This is all about me! Me, me, me!
Xander: Wow! For once she's right!
Buffy: So you've come to me for help.
Cordelia: Because you're always around when all this weird stuff is happening. And I know you're very strong, and you've got all those weapons... I was kind of hoping you were in a gang...

Cordelia: You were popular? In what alternate universe?
Buffy: In L.A. The point is, I did sort of feel like something was missing.
Cordelia: Is that when you became weird and got kicked out?
Buffy: Okay. Can we have the heartfelt talk with a little less talk from you?

Giles: You know, I-I don't recall ever seeing you here before.
Cordelia: Oh, no, I have a life.

:lmao:

Out of Mind, Out of Sight - 6/10

Okay here is the sitch, I can watch all the rest of the episodes, make a review like this for all 100 some odd episodes there are, or I could finish off with season one, start getting clips from season one, then 2 and so on until I have enough to make some music videos. Hehe what do ya think? Last time I only reviewed season 5! I guess every time I rewatch it I'll review a season at random :lmao: Hehe no?

hehe, no, you can keep reviewing. watch, review, and do whatever you want however you want 🙂. im just...being weird 😛.

The ending was great too when the men in black take her off, haha and she goes to an 'invisible' school and learns to become an assassin!

it always bothered me that they never went back to that. shouldnt there have been an episode where they have to fight a team of invisible assassins or something? :silly:

Xander: Well, yeah, I would give anything to be able to turn invisible. Well, I wouldn't use my powers to beat people up, but I'd use my powers to protect the girls' locker room.

:wigglinge hehe, love that line: rotflmao

I especially loved how we get to see a much more human side to Cordelia at this point that I know will become more apparent in future episodes.

agreed. although i do prefer early cordy to the cordy she becomes on angel.

 

[GATEGOD]

I'm already halfway through season 2. There are so many little tid bits that I want to get off my chest immediately after I watch an episode, but that's just it little tid bits. No where to really say them without making a new thread for the episode, and I'm not one to make a new thread for something as trivial as a tid bit that I loved or what not.

Still need to find the time to write about the finale for season 1 >.< No time at the moment or I'd be doing it right now, work, work, eww and work, on Labor day no less.
