I totally missed the show when it was on cause my kids were babies and now I am a die hard fan. Hush and the musical are two of my favorites because they are so different. I can't wait to hear what you say about OMWF when you watch it. As for Spike, he's my favorite definitely for the humor he gives to the show; though he doesn't look half bad either ;).

Are you interested in the comics or not? The latest issue has been getting a lot of press, even from the NYT and Perez Hilton (two completely different ends of the spectrum). Also, after seeing "Once More With Feeling" you should help try to save the Buffy Sing-along because it's such a great thing to go to. I went to the one at Coolidge Corner Theater (and this was before I bought the series set so I had missed a few seasons, including the one that included this episode) and it was really great to see on the big screen with a bunch of people singing the song (and they didn't need the words!). I missed when they had "The Prom" themed sing-along but I heard it was great fun and people dressed up! Question: Will you be reading Season 8 once you finish with all the DVDs?

I watched most of Buffy with my boyfriend, who'd seen it before, so he skipped large chunks of Season 4 while assuring me they weren't very interesting. I'll go back someday, but I don't think I missed anything particularly worth watching. There's a lot of good show to come, although personally I don't think the show ever quite recaptures some of the early magic.

I don't think I'm giving anything away when I say that the loudest I've gasped (it might have been a scream) was concerning Xander, so his influence kind of sneaks up on you. A co-worker of mine went to high school with this actor and his twin brother. I was surprised to find out how old he really is - I think he graduated high school in 1989. It shouldn't be a surprise since most "high schoolers" in TV are really 30, but I would not have guessed it of Xander.

Just saw your new post, and wanted to note that I did a very similar "Buffy Project" just before I moved recently, watching every episode from every season. Two things about this. One, it's all encompassing! I mean, you get so into it that you don't want to leave your TV. Two, when you are watching all of them in a row, you start to kind of think that you, too, might have super powers. For example, I went to the gas station in the middle of the night thinking, "if someone tried to mug me right now, I could totally roundhouse kick him." HA! Hey!

It is quite the cooincinence that I have just finished season 4 of Buffy and am starting season 5! My friend Sierra has always loved the show, and got me completely hooked on it now! So far, I think my favorite episode has to be "Hush". She also has me started on Angel... it's almost too much at once! It's nice to know I am not the only one in the world who is just discovering the hellmouth that is Buffy (and I mean that in a good way!). I can't wait to see how it all ends. Have fun while you're staying in Sunnydale! -Larry Lee Hi Kathy!

I never watched it when it was on but became obsessed when FX started showing the entire show through syndication. The really great stuff is coming up right quick. Also, not to be nit-picky, but you keep saying "except" when you mean "accept." Just FYI. It’s so exciting to see another person succumb to Buffy.

Season 4 has its weak moments, to be sure. In fact, in the original season 4 DVD set, Joss apologizes for one episode that was especially bad. He said that they thought it'd be good but he's apologizing (though he doesn't name which one!). Anyway, season 5 is possibly my favorite season, but don't be afraid to have large "uggh!" feelings toward Dawn now that she's actually in the series. That tends to be a concensus, too--I think you can see her obnoxatronness in the first couple episodes she's in! Especially her Harriet the Spy reenactment. Haha.

As someone else said Xander is the heart of the group. When he goes to Anya after, my heart melts every time and I wonder why oh why he's not working on anything I'm watching these days. Enjoy the rest of your Buffy filled night :-) Hopefully I get to watch Triangle later on and I don't fall too much behind your fun Buffy posts.

And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage. (pause) Oh, I'm not gonna kiss you. WILLOW: What? But freeze frame! OZ: Well, to the casual observer, it would appear that you're trying to make your friend Xander jealous or even the score or something. And that's on the empty side.
