Wacky Watches: Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel

[CaptainWacky]

It just makes the Slayer and her super strength less special when literally anyone can stake a vampire with literally anything (wooden)?

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

They keep saying "number one with a bullet" when they put an episode at the top of a list and...

I don't think they know what that means.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

Deep down inside, we all wish we could be Casey Kasem.

 

[CaptainWacky]

IT'S NOT PROBLEMATIC TO HAVE AN EVIL CHARACTER DO EVIL THINGS, STOP SPENDING SO MUCH TIME DISCUSSING IT.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

Remember when they took Willow from "uses magic to solve her problems and also abuses her friends' trust" to "crack addict" in one episode

 

[CaptainWacky]

AND RUINED AMY'S CHARACTER.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

How many episodes had Amy been in before S6, two? Gingerbread and Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered?

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

Something Blue, I guess.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

I think when rather than dying, your character becomes a rat that escapes death, the audience will naturally anticipate that at some point, there will be a rat-reversing.

 

[CaptainWacky]

How many episodes had Amy been in before S6, two? Gingerbread and Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered?

And Witch in season one.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

oh my god I hate Gone so much

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

They replaced Buffy with, like, an invisible teen hooligan??????? it's really really bad.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

the music in the final scene is so weird wtf

 

[CaptainWacky]

That poor social worker.

 

[Eggs Mayonnaise]

She was Arnie's secretary Roxanne on L.A. Law!

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

Seriously though. She makes the very reasonable points that "uh your kid is hanging around with drugs, 40 year old guys with leather jackets, and not ever at school, fix it" and is rewarded with Buffy trying to sabotage her career? It's complete bullshit.

Buffy making the crack "it's not what you think, it's magic weed" re: the bag of sage is probably the worst thing about the episode.

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

I think Gone is worse than Wrecked? At least everybody is somewhat recognisably themselves in Wrecked.

 

[CaptainWacky]

At least you have the Riley episode soon!

 

[SAUSAGEMAN]

or will I!

Alasdair and Lani broke up.

 

[CaptainWacky]

What! That seems...sudden. I only just listened to the Once More, With Feeling episode and they were singing to each other.

Couldn't they have stayed together until the end of Buffy at least!
