- The Wish is awesome, y'all.

- Amends is slightly less stupid this time round, though it very much feels like AtS Episode 00.

Oh, and the Magic Snow? Still not a fan.

- Buffy has very unfortunate hair from Amends onward. The Zeppo is especially boggle-inducing.

- You know, I still just can't wrap my head around Buffy's behavior in Bad Girls. I ( Read more... )

I think I might love you. :)

Reading your linked post, I did one ages ago about how much I don't like mayo. It boggles people's minds that I don't eat it but I don't like it. Of course, the whole post came after someone trying to shove this Bangel love story fanfic down my throat like a million times despite my polite no thank you. And this was someone on my flist, so you think they'd know better.

The only reason to watch Amends, ONLY REASON, is the pornstache. Oh yeah, you know the one I am talking about.

I totally agree that I wish we had more of the Buffy and Faith build up so Bad Girls makes more sense. It does seem out of nowhere but I just assume things happened off-screen as it tends to happen. Put me down as another that wanted Faith as a regular cast member...but on ATS. It needed her. Have her learn her lesson, go to jail for a bit, get bailed out for whatever awesome reason, and join the gang.

Yeah. It's always tempting to try to tell people all the awesomeness of a ship you like in the thoughts that they might "get it", but if somebody doesn't like a pairing, they probably just don't like that pairing. There's no point in trying to persuade them otherwise.

rofl! I do like the Willow/Oz scenes in Amends, and I actually like the big Buffy/Angel scene on the hill top. You know, before the Magic Snow. The rest of it, though...

I've always been less-than-impressed with The First as a villain.

Yes! She fits in more with the Angel crew. Seeking redemption. Staying on the straight and narrow. Plus, I genuinely like scenes with her and Angel. She would have been awesome as a regular there.

I've had people sell me on a pairing before. Like when I first started out, I was pretty indifferent towards Spuffy and then I flat out didn't like it but now, I really have grown to love it. And beer_good_foamy converted me to the Buffy/Clem ship. I think it is possible but if someone liked a ship and then fell out of favor with it, nothing is going to change their mind. Like I used to like Fred, the first go around, on numerous rewatches, I wish she would have stayed in Pylea. I shipped Bangel cause all my friends did and then I, you know, left high school and started to think for myself, realized I didn't have to like what they did.

And The First was totally a cop-out villian, imho. Oh look! I am the ultimate evil only I can't really -do- anything because I'm not corporeal. But wait! I have an army of ubervamps! Oh yes, that will do nicely!

Oh, I've had my opinion changed on various characters/ships when rewatching the show. But I've never been in a discussion with someone who, one-on-one convinced me to like a ship that I previously hadn't liked.

Oh, you mentioned Fred! I hated her character when I first watched AtS. I'm wondering if my opinion of her will change when I rewatch it. Likely not (Fredless really turned me off her for good). But, hey, it could happen.
