This really should come as no surprise to anyone, and as such, I’m not going to hide my answer behind the cut: Willow and Xander is the absolute worst character coupling throughout the entire series. I hate it so much that I’m not even going to include a picture of the two. That’s how you

On Buffy, if somebody was happy in their relationship, well … it was about to end brutally. Because Whedon hates happiness and fulfillment. Giles and Jenny: murder. Buffy and Angel: soul removed and demon restored. Xander and Cordy: cheating and then impaling. The list just goes on, and somehow continues to get worse. But every now
-
In a nutshell? I wish Xander actually had to face real consequences for the shitty things he did. He nearly raped Buffy when he was under the influence of the demon hyena but was allowed by Giles to not talk about it and pretend he didn’t remember it. He didn’t tell Buffy that Willow was going

First of all, I want to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my little sister, who has looked ambiguously thirty-ish for about fifteen years and now fits the part! (These are her words, not mine.) And today’s challenge title does not reference you at all! On that note, when I had originally done my challenges, I always

Season Seven is … not the best season. Now, it’s better than the first one – and I will fight anyone on that – but it’s like the tenth season of Friends, where there are some genuinely amusing moments, and sure, it’s nice to be with the characters you’ve grown to love over how ever many

You know, at the risk of irritating others, I really don’t think Season Six is as bad as everyone thinks it is. I mean, it’s not great, by any stretch of the imagination, and I’m not fully going back on my statement that the show should have ended with Season Five. But I no longer

With the sixth and seventh seasons, it’s a bit easier to pick a favorite episode, seeing as the good ones actually stand out against a backdrop of crappy ones, but the fifth season is definitely a challenge. Just behind Season Three in cohesive awesomeness, Season Five has a fairly consistent spread of excellence over its
-
So because I already chose “Restless” as my favorite episode overall, I can’t just choose it again. Well, I could, but I won’t. That’s called cheating. And cheaters never prosper, except they totally do or no one would ever do it. But I digress.

How do I love Season Three? Oh, let me count the ways. The Mayor Faith Armin Shimerman’s Principal Snyder Angel finally leaving because he’s toxic to Buffy Buffy realizing that everyone kind of knew something was special about her but acted like dicks anyway because they were high schoolers on the Hellmouth and then completely

Ahhh, Season Two, when things actually start to get good. Not as good as Season Three, but definitely an improvement from its twelve-episode predecessor: Spike and Drusilla appear to wreak havoc on Sunnydale, Angel and Buffy’s relationship explodes (in more ways than one), the stakes are raised in ways I couldn’t have predicted, what it
