I know this is old, but you’ve every right to be upset with people soft-spoiling your experience with Buffy. It isn’t out of mere excitement, it’s content consumers with no regard other than their fulfilling their content fix. They are right to be shamed, because most people like myself watch for a genuine raw reaction.
It must been act Sam part nice she was probably nervous around Buffy and her friends it was probably her personality what read she was a doctor I read about her
I know its almost 2 years old now, but here i am. My mom was a huge fan of the show. We didnt watch a lot of it together, but im glad i watched all of it while she was still alive. She passed in her sleep after deciding to take a nap while i was deployed, and was found by my dad then my younger brother. Thinking of them having to find her like buffy did breaks my heart. And my dads call to me overseas to let me know had to have been as devistating to him and it was chilling to me. Thw "we're not supposed to move the body!" Is the part that breaks me in this episode, then just ride the sad cries the whole time.
I absolutely agree, Anya just breaks my heart here, she's a child begging for someone to make this terrible thing make some kind of sense to her, to show her a way through the grief.
I moved out at 18 tried my luck out in the real world and I feel like it just beat the crap out of me. I was back at my mams at 20 and felt miserable for a while but I’m 24 now I have my own place again and I’m okay. I felt like I totally failed back then but I didn’t it was just a set back. Things will be good again.
I lost my grandma almost a year ago. i was very close to my grandma. My mum and i love Buffy. we watched this episode many times. However, since my grandma's death, we don't watch this episode anymore it's too hard, mostly to my mum.
I will say this season ruined Giles for me a little. I think the others kicking Buffy out was based in fear and upset. Its still bullshit, but whatever. With Giles, I just get the feeling that his main motivation was a bruised ego. Buffy no longer went to him for advice and didnt need him in the way Faith may have. Really didnt like how he turned on her.
A long time ago I was able to download the script for this episode. It only takes minutes to read through the entire show. The only thing that bothered was the vampire at end. It wasn't really necessary to have that scene expect so many people would expect Buffy to kill at least one fight during an episode. Favorite scene: probably Anya. Ask me again and I'll pick someone else.
I did then and still to this day find it one of the most boring episode. Don’t get me wrong, it’s executed well but the two episodes could’ve been in one. I remember Kristine already wanted to leave the show during season 3 and Joss said no because he was already planning the death. Joss’s mother died from the same thing so I guess it was a coping mechanism for him. However, I am glad they blurred out the voices when Buffy tells Dawn because I’ve read the script of what’s said and it’s not good 😂
i was just rewatching the walking dead reaction compilations and came to check out your channel and saw this and it made me so sad. you seem like a really sweet guy and i’m sorry you were/are suffering. i have chronic depression so related to a ton of what you said here. at 26 i’ve never been able to work because of my mental health. no money, no prospects, i don’t feel good at anything either. it hurts so bad knowing you can’t pursue the things you want in life. and worrying about finances and careers is more than enough to deal with, without the constant pain of depression on top of it. it sucks. it’s horrendous. and so many people just do not understand. just know that you’re not alone. i hope you’re doing a lot better now, and if not, i hope things get better soon. and if you ever wanna talk to someone who does understand i’m happy to drop my discord or somethin lmao ❤ please take care of yourself
Using Willow's magic addiction as so on the nose to a drug addiction was a bit of a misstep, I think, when, really, it should be more about an addiction to power.
Giles wasn't necessarily right to leave. IfJoyce were alive, she would probably still be around for her young adult daughter. People are never completely independent.
Late to the party. And probably touched upon. But the "dawn is in danger, must be tuesday." Is cause the show aired tuesdays. Tho it got switched around a couple times
I'm coming back with another suggestion lol I don't know if you will even see this but I had a thought. Now you've watched the whole series of Buffy/Angel. You edited all your videos. You read the comments. You know the potential spoilers. There's always new Buffy reactors coming out. What if you hired yourself out as editor? You have insider knowledge of the show and as someone who watched the show as a reactor , you know what works and doesn't. Maybe some channels that are looking for an editor can hire you. Hope you're well
