OMGGGG, I looooooooove Ice Princess, starring Michelle Tratchtenberg, famous indeed for playing Georgina Sparks(You can tell Jesus that the b*tch is back) in Gossip Girl!!!
When it comes to Buffy you are going to see a whole bunch of things you recognize from tropes to lore ideas and the reason for that is because 90% of them started from this show.
When they put the soul back into Angelus' body, they are punishing the person, but also trapping the demon inside that person which to the demon, when it comes to a person like Angel, must be torture.
my early high school never had cliques really; it was just the "cool guys" the "girls" and everyone else. my secondary building (high school) was a converted manor house so the library was an actual genuine stuffy old library, books on both sides and a desk at the far end near the windows where the librarian was, it had a few computers but not many. 5:50:39 Buffy is like "wait a minute...i know what this is...do I? maybe...should i act normal or say something..." maybe it was my early experience with girls...but early in life, before you could call it "relationships" a lot of girls liked me and i kissed a fair few girls either because they wanted to kiss me or the opportunoty just came up. by the time i was in high school and you form real "dating" relationships i was more quiet and a loner and i only had one relationship. it wasn't until i left school that i finally met the person i'm with now.
hyena's are the cowards of the animal world; they are supposedly an impure mix of cat and dog (yeah they are basically animal rednecks), they are meat eaters and scavengers, they go for anything vulnerable and alone...weak animals, somethnig lost and alone...half dead...maybe a baby seperated from a group. They will even kill each other sometimes if desperate. However african tribes have many legends about them.
The Pack was almost banned, it was the first REALLY dark episode and wasn't very well received in some places at first. It was only after it was better looked at and people understood it was more about the possession and teenage social interaction that it was accepted. Hyena's prey on the weak, that is their nature, they don't attack strong prey...so Buffy is too strong for them. But Willow and that other boy are seen as weak to them. After the zoo Xander's behaviour shows many signs of a Hyena if he stands like a man; he sniffs Buffy's hair, stands by his women and dislikes bread (hyena's eat meat not bread), he then begins to hang with the bullies (his fellow hyena's) and pick on people...primarily Willow. He shows a sign of losing intelligence when studying, unable to focus. With Buffy he becomes more primal and tries to sexually assault her due to his feelings for her. But of course the main similarity between Hyena's and Human teenagers is as Giles said "testosterone, it is a great equalizer...turns all men into morons" this along with "preying on the weak" helps Buffy realise the connection between Xander and Hyena's.
I was always a little annoyed by that episode, seeing as hyenas are matriarchal, fight lions and hunt much larger and more powerful species, and generally act nothing like the archetype being portrayed. But I like the episode anyway, and Buffy writers can’t be expected to be zoologists.
@@somerotter hyena's do prey on the weak though and THAT was the important element of the episode...they go after vulnerable prey. also the zoo keeper did say these were a rare breed of hyena so maybe they behave different from the average hyena. they weren't focusing on making it realistic, i saw an interview about this episode...it's about human behaviour vs animal behaviour...humans prey on others...they bully...bullies are cowardly...hyenas do the same. and both teens and hyenas have testosterone turning them into primal morons...it's about the similarities...but also the differences.
@@IDyce88 I get what it’s about, that’s why still like the episode. But hyena are no more likely to prey on the weak than a lion or wolf; and more likely to attack a comparatively larger and more powerful animal than either wolves or lions.
@@somerotter i'm not so certain about that, pack hunting animals aren't necesarily cowardly i guess, you maybe right there...but they use group hunting to the advantage when it comes to a stronger foe. Buffy is an alpha in their eyes...and is there is obviously a reason that everytime Buffy faced them they backed off...but with willow or the other kid they attacked...i mean even in the volleyball they went for their own team mate over buffy. i also just looked up hyenas, it said "for generations people have despised them for picking on livestock, children and corpses" so it's more of a stereotype than fact. but BTVS is full of stereotypes.
The whole season?!? Yowza!!! That's a long-ass video!!! Welcome back! Haven't seen you pop up in my feed recently, how've you been? Been about a month...
You know I never actually realised until now how smart Buffy actually is she figured out almost everything going on before Giles does! Did anyone just realise that too or is it just me? she figured out a LOT before Giles did and Giles followed her thought process! I think I need to rewatch the other seasons now :)
Hi, Jab. I really enjoyed your Buffy videos. I'll be happy to watch more whenever you are able to post. Every season of Buffy is so good. Like anyone else, I have my favorite seasons, but there are no bad seasons, and every season is worth watching. Every season has its own unique style... and selection of amazing episodes.
This was one of the first shows to really show the effects of trauma in characters and show people dealing with it. before Buffy, it was never in mainstream shows to show a character that was traumatized by their past.
Do smaller bands play at the Bronze? That depends on what you mean by "smaller" None of the bands that played at the Bronze would fill a 60k seat stadium, but they were known at the time. This particular band, Chibo Mato, one of the members is John Lennon and Yoko Ono's son.
The hair cut is actually the first sign we are given that Buffy is suffering from depression. That conversation of Buffy's parents is also a major sign that Buffy suffers from depression. More specifically long term or life-long depression. She is going through an episode during this episode, but her depression predates her death experience and will carry on past this episode.
I'm 10 month's late, but you could drink an alcoholic beverage during the stream as a reward for the Bingo! If you don't drink alcohol, then you could substitute Coffee or a Pop. For potential future Bingo's
The Demon that was coming through the mouth of hell had three heads. It was Cerberus. Fun Fact: Cerberus means "Spot" Cerberus was a dog with a mottled coat.
Remember a couple of episodes back, in Nightmares, Buffy dreamed that she was fighting the Master and she was powerless against him? Buffy's dreams are prophetic. Her dream came true. A lot of people think that dream was just a part of the nightmares that were affecting everyone, but that one was a Slayer prophecy dreams.
Watching Buffy reactions has convinced me that they have stopped teaching the 3 "L's" Because I had the code figured out after just the first clue. But "LOOK, LISTEN, LEARN" was practically beaten into me by my teachers.
How is 6 months ago the most recent dead or missing child? Well, most recent since before Buffy showed up. All the ones more recent than that Buffy already knows what happened to them.
While I am not specifically scared of clown, I have not liked them ever since I saw Vampire Space Clowns on TV one day as a kid. (I know that is not the real name of the movie, but it accurately describes the movie. Vampire Clowns from outer space put people in cotton candy cocoons and drink their blood through swirly straws)
