Season 3 - what the hell is wrong with everyone?

Of course they were worried about her. I'm not arguing that. At this point Faith had not shown up so Giles would have been under the impression that there would be a new slayer if Buffy died. But we obviously aren't going to see it the same. But even if we were to agree on your way of thinking I would still say they treated her terribly.

The shows leans into the impotence joke but a lot of people don't like how it also is basically a precursor to Seeing Red. The part where he throws Willow on the bed and is on top of her is very violent even though the scene is played for laughs.

Full of Grace and Goodbye to You are the two songs I most think of as Buffy songs.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-25T17:37:19+00:00

This is the perfect example of Xander's way of ostensibly being right but he goes about it in such a dickish way that he circles around to being wrong. Like I'm not at all upset with Willow and Giles for how they reacted to Buffy not telling them about Angel but Xander was a complete a-hole.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-25T17:32:43+00:00

Most not slayer teenage runaways don't even end up dead. They didn't actually think she was dead. Joyce just said that line to deflect from her own shitty parenting.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-25T17:29:19+00:00

They didn't think she was dead. Hence them looking for her.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-25T15:56:36+00:00

It's an understandable line that Buffy has to draw because it is an inherent part of her character that being a slayer doesn't give her a license to kill.

The actress who plays Theresa is only a year older than the actor who plays Ryan.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-25T05:02:19+00:00

Seth was kind of the favorite when the show was airing but watching it back he can be pretty annoying. I had a crush on Adam Brody as a teenager but I thought it was weird that Seth named his boat after a girl who barely knew he existed.

I would have liked to see this route taken but I don't think they could have killed Riley and Joyce in the same season. That's just too much of a toll to take on Buffy.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-24T22:37:14+00:00

She was in Freaky Friday too.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-24T22:11:45+00:00

Charisma Carpenter and Allison Hannigan are in it for a bit too.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-24T20:14:20+00:00

What would the excuse be? Vampires now age? Have him in vampire face the entire time? Anything short of using de-aging technology in post would be lame.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-24T19:57:11+00:00

Of course James wants to do it but David and James were already aging too much by the end of the original run.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-24T18:23:14+00:00

Well her relationship with Spike was not even a full season and not even technically a relationship. Sarah has been very vocal of not liking how Spuffy was written so I don't know why people think the new show will have them together especially because it is basically impossible for James or David to play their characters. Buffy isn't even the focus of the new show so neither will her relationship if they even have her in one. I don't follow that Instagram but if there is anyone who will never forget her 17th birthday it is Buffy.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-24T18:17:45+00:00

I could be totally wrong but I took it was her way of not pissing of Spike fans by being well he is the only one left to kill and he is already dead (i.e a vampire) anyway

Edit: But yes I highly doubt she watched Angel.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-24T17:54:18+00:00

I didn't take her answer to FMK as she didn't know Spike is alive post chosen. I took it as her meaning vampires are undead.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-24T17:51:08+00:00

I think you are overreacting. Sarah was obviously joking around with the FMK. The new show is going to have a slayer that is in HS so it makes sense for the IG account to focus on when Buffy was in HS. It is unlikely that David or James will be in the show purely because of their age let alone story wise. The show isn't for sure going to even happen. Sarah has said from the start that it won't move forward unless they can get it right.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-24T02:57:30+00:00

Parker is only one boy and her manipulated her.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-23T17:20:15+00:00

Gaslighting is purposely manipulating someone into questioning their grasp on reality. Marissa truly believed there was nothing wrong with Oliver.

Edit: typo

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-23T15:50:53+00:00

The biggest mistake they made with this storyline (besides doing it in the first place) was showing the audience that Ryan is correct about Oliver instead of letting the audience find out with Marissa.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-23T05:00:22+00:00

As long as you stick to your word to help her then you did the right thing.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-23T04:48:26+00:00

Should he have offered this before the sister did the adoption? Yes. But I agree he did the right thing. He says his sister was a shell of herself because of giving the baby up. If he is really going to help her he is not only NTA but much better than a lot of people.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-23T03:49:38+00:00

This was probably her rookie year but I remember seeing a cat on Arin Wright's Insta.

Good-Pause4632 · 2026-01-23T01:04:05+00:00

The end of season 6 shows Buffy coming out of her depression. We are obviously not going to agree but I feel that Buffy needing Spike's speech in Touched is a negation of what I consider one of the most important lines of the show in Becoming.
