Buffy rewatch continues...

[dangermousie]

I had the best evening last night. filmi-girl came over and joined me in my Buffy rewatch, If there is one thing better than rewatching BtVS S2, it’s rewatching it with someone who also likes it ;)

Plus, they were three of the eps I really love: ‘Reptile Boy,’ ‘Halloween,’ and ‘Lie to Me.’

In RL, I’d want to kill her in two minutes, but in the show, she is hilarious and awesome.

When these eps aired, I was in England for the semester (fall 1997). I was talking to my mom and she said she wanted to bitch-slap Cordy in the ep. She has some great lines. Did you know the girl who plays the third sacrifice is PJ in My Boys? I don't watch the show (sports ain't my thing, and neither are sitcoms... or reality, for that matter) but I thought that was neat.

Though this brings me to wonder where Joyce is while her high-school daughter is entertaining a man in her bedroom.

She was at a gallery showing in L.A. Buffy said it in the beginning, when she told Willow that Angel was going to be over. omg, how is it I STILL REMEMBER WHEN I HAVEN'T SEEN THIS EP IN PROBABLY 5 YEARS.

Moving on.

I do love how the dark got introduced, with the intro of Giles-not-so-prissy (beating the crap out of Ethan), then "Lie to Me." As much as I loved first season while it aired, second blew it out of the water. It killed me that people didn't like it when I loved the show so much. In hindsight (as in your realization in "Reptile Boy") they can be lame but they were revolutionary for the time... and being 20 years old.

Let me know when you're having rewatch time, and I'd love to join you (if I can)! Especially when you get to the Faith eps in anticipation of Dollhouse-if your rewatch gets that far. Thanks for the heads up that Helo's in that.

Heee, thanks, I forgot entirely, which is sad.

Oh, I didn't think the ep was lame, I thought that the characters of frat boys were both (a) believably lame in cosmic sense (which they totally were supposed to be) and (b) believably not appearing so to a teenager who would be listening to their blandishments (which they were also supposed to be).

Let me know when you're having rewatch time,

Would love to. it's usually a spontaneous thing! :)
