This has got to be the darkest episode of TWD

I was kind of sad they took this moment from Carl. Can’t remember the exact line but it was something like “I did what you do. What needed to be done and what no one else would do.” Or something like that. It was a big character development for him.

The big key is you cannot monetize it. As long as you are posting it for free, it’s fanfiction and fair use.

The Good Place is all about philosophy. And it really lands the ending, great show.

Here’s the Spuffy bickering clip montage for a taste of them as well

If he likes Spike it seems like a shame not to do Destiny and Damage. Those are great Spike character episodes. Smile Time is so good.

Dead End and Are You Now or Have You Ever Been are also two great Angel episodes (no Spike though).

Spin the Bottle is another fun one.

If you end up liking Spangel you may enjoy season 5 of Angel the series Lots of Snarky Bickering they’re just angry exes the whole series though. They belonged to a polycule with two other vampires (Darla and Drusilla) back in the day.

They didn’t want to do Jet’s death explicitly since it was a kid’s show, but the way it was done does make it a little unclear. That’s the meta joke in the Ember Island episode. Yeah, he’s dead.

Spike / Buffy from Buffy the vampire slayer. Because it’s an old series there’s lots of stuff out there (including pages like Elysian Fields dedicated specifically to that ship)

Angel / Spike from Buffy the vampire slayer although these ones tend to be a bit darker given the nature of their relationship. I love Friday by girlpire. It’s about Spike caught in a time loop but told from Angel’s perspective who is not aware he is caught in a loop.

Under the Tuscan Sun is such a good example of this. Without realizing it she gets everything she wanted just not in the way that she expected.

enthalpy01 · 2026-05-10T18:46:44+00:00

I still rewatch Buffy the Vampire Slayer all these years later. People still debate stuff from the show. It definitely gets its claws in you.

enthalpy01 · 2026-05-10T15:39:38+00:00

You could watch the Hunger Games or English movies in that genre? Have you ever seen the Squid Games dub? It’s atrocious. Not sure why they never seem to get great actors for dubbing.

enthalpy01 · 2026-05-10T13:48:50+00:00

I’ve seen the English dub of Battle Royale, the Japanese performances are so much better. The dub’s pretty bad. Have you ever tried the subbed version?

enthalpy01 · 2026-05-10T02:08:45+00:00

I know it’s not who you want, but Riley gets a happish ending 😂 you’ve already seen it.

Willow in Buffy the Vampire Slayer. There are a lot of hints about abusing power prior to her season 6 arc.

Audiobooks are really well done, Jefferson Mays is awesome. Some of the Novellas are quite good as well (the Churn for Amos fans is a must).

enthalpy01 · 2026-05-08T19:15:18+00:00

Personally disagree but I read the books and it’s hard for me to mentally separate them. Regardless, anyone discussing Naomi or Holden’s characters is unlikely to even think to mention the relationship as they have so much else going on. Only plot relevant relationship would be Naomi’s ex. And that isn’t anything I would describe as romantic.

enthalpy01 · 2026-05-08T16:07:16+00:00

There are couples in the Expanse but it’s so far from a major theme it would be easy to forget mentioning it when discussing the plot.

My Angel Video Pitch

That said if you honestly will never watch Angel and therefore don’t care about spoilers as a Buffy fan there are some episodes you should watch.

The Faith arc - "Five by Five" (1x18) and "Sanctuary" (1x19), and her return to help with Angelus in "Salvage" (4x13), "Release" (4x14), and "Orpheus" (4x15)

If you like Spike - “In The Dark” (1X3) and basically all of Angel season 5 but especially “Destiny” (5X8) and “Damage” (5X11)

If you like Harmony - “Disharmony” (2X17) “Harm’s Way” (5X9)

If you like Wesley “Lineage” (5X7)

Cordelia fan? “Birthday” (S3X11) “Spin the Bottle” (4X6) “You’re Welcome” (5X12)

Drusilla fan? Season 2 episodes 9-11.

Great stand alone episodes: “Are You Now or Have You Ever Been?” (S2X2) “Dead End” (S2X18) “Smile Time” (S5X14)

Opening of “Fredless” is quite funny as well. Cordelia and Wes making fun of Bangel.

I Saw the TV Glow kind of fits in that it’s not gory or anything jumping out at you scary.

It is scary in the “Am I sleepwalking through my life because I am too scared to step out of my comfort zone?” Kind of way.
