NOT. (I am an obnoxious eight-year-old from the 90s. Don’t mind me.)
“I killed my gigapet!” (I miss the 90’s sometimes…)
Maybe I read too much fanfiction
no that’s not possible, but shouldn’t Buffy have a better “Danger Sense” than this?“You boiled your young?”
It’s not exactly my OTP, but I don’t exactly mind Bangel PDA, but there seems to be an awful lot of…

Buffy Rewatch - 2x08 - “The Dark Age”
—————————————————————————--
“The Dark Age” is amongst the best of the best of S2 episodes. While parts and moments of it might fall flat, the overall plot of the episode, the character development for Giles and everyone’s reactions to his past far make up for it.
At the same time “The Dark Age” displays classic plot twists and expectation subversion one eventually comes to expect from this show.

1.08 I Robot, You Jane
Getting caught up again. I fell behind again, because I have gotten so wrapped up in TVD lately that my Buffy rewatch fell on the backburner for a time. But its time to get it going again. So here we go.

Buffy Rewatch - 2x04 - “Inca Mummy Girl”
—————————————————————————--
For most of time I just can’t decide whether I dislike “I, Robot…You, Jane” more or ”Inca Mummy Girl”. I usually just skip this episode as its just plain hard to rewatch.
At its essence, the episode is decent. You have parallels to Buffy/Angel, you have a source of Xander’s dislike of Angel for the rest of the show and you have introduction of Oz, one of the best BTVS characters ever.
The problem with the episode? The Plot-of-The-Week is full of cultural stereotypes and paranoia in similar fashion to “I, Robot…You, Jane” and a lot of what is explored in episode is just a re-tread to what already has been explored.
