tec's random notes about each ep

[tec]

So I stared my rewatch...but I jumped to S5 first because its the one I remember the least

So as primer I went back one ep to S4 Restless
This is a very powerful ep for Tara who carries the show I think of her as basicly the guide for the most part even becomeing the voice of the first Slayer.

This ep also has some very great visual shots and eye candy
Tara walking though the desert is one of my favorite shots on Buffy
Willow going all the way back to the first eps wardrobe it a visual treat to show just how far shes come
To more powerful images of Tara laying down naked as Willow writes on her back
To just fun stuff like Xanders army movie bits and Giles precurser to OMWF when he breaks out in song.

One final note about this ep is the wardrobe on Willow and Tara in the back of the Ice Cream truck...I respect the characters a lot but wowzers I had to do a dubble take at thoses two..and it looks like they had fun with that number as well.

You think you know whats to come?...Awsome

Family

A charged griping ep that is another great Tara vehical
Still feeling the like shes not part of the core gang yet but she wants to be and Willow can see it
Willow tries to help her fit in more and plans a bday party for Tara's 20th
Tara tries to fit in but the jokes and angels she trys dont quite work.

Then some of the worst pepole on the planet show up her Family these scenes show Tara in a new light and its not prutty.
Amber plays these scenes to perfection

But theses lothesom creatures are not her real family she belongs to a much better family and her acceptance is complet in one of the most hart warming moments of the series.

Fool for love

Buffy gets bested when she thinks she at her peek fighting condetion
So she wants answers to questions only Spike can answers..what where the final moments of a slayers life like why brought down some of the most powerful women?
The answers will surpise you this ep will to

Spike delivers a very good preformance bringing Buffy along for a ride down memory lane
Its not an easy ride for the Slayer but is sure is fun to watch
Theses two work so well togather.
M Blucas has a moment in the sun dispatching a nest of vamps with a granade My question though is this...As cool as that scene is would that work?

Then after the show and tell in the back alley Buffy gives Spike the cold sholder and tosses Spikes money at him like a cheep...street professnal...and walks away

Spikes had enough if this crap and pulls the one thing I never expected to see in his hands a Shotgun
And ofF to the Summers home he goes...
But again Spike pulls another trick out of his long awsome coat....compassion
Just a very silent moment where nothing much is said and nothing has to be
James pulls out a commanding preformace in body language and faceal expressions.
