May. 14th, 2003 12:39 amI'm going to go against the Clone-thing and say I enjoyed tonight's Buffy. Do I think it's the best episode ever? God no. I doubt I'd put anything of S7 in the "best of" catagory. Some would rank above S4, but S4 does have the allure of Oz [though heartbreaking to see him at all that season] or Tara... A lot of those episodes were as shitty as I was told they'd be. :P
On topic again. There were quips, that at times felt strained, also made sense for the akwardness. It's the end of the world, and even the best joke is going to be tinged with sadness. People will die, and it could be you or the person you're talking to. [see Andrew and Anya who amused me highly] Iliked Buffy's interactions with most characters, and for me that probably went a long way towards giving the episode a thumbs up. She wasn't a frigid bitch, though she wasn't warm and bubbly either. She did make an effort however. Even the Spuffy scene wasn't too bad, although maybe it was the music. Hrmm.
Dawn and Xander were slightly amusing, yet interesting to see. Until she stunned him and then apparently drove off with his body in the driver's seat. However someone gets points for Dawn being remembered.
Someone also gets points for Chao Ahn being mentioned by Faith. ;) Faith and Buffy were nice to see together, and damn it, I liked their new toy.
