If I get sucked into one more mini-Buffy the Vampire Slayer marathon on Logo, I will stake someone. Which is why I’m warning you now that Logo is planning a mega 30-episode Buffy marathon of fan favorites for June 11th through June 13th. Go here to pick your 10 top episodes, then they’ll show us the 30 receiving the most votes.
I just watched a few episodes from season 7 on Logo last night (Andrew asking Buffy, “Where the hell have you been? This funnel cake is kicking my ass,” is still one of my all-time fave quotes). Maybe that’s why I’m leaning toward earlier episodes like “Prophecy Girl” (Buffy faces the Master), “Band Candy” (Buffy meets Ripper, pictured), “School Hard” (Joyce strikes Spike), “Halloween” (Oz notices Willow), and “Helpless” (the council strips Buffy of her strength for her 18th birthday). It’s tough though: Do I fill up my card with two-parters (“Becoming,” “Graduation Day”), classic episodes I’ve watched a million times (“Innocence,” “Hush,” “Fool for Love,” “The Body,” “The Gift,” “Once More, With Feeling,” “Chosen”), or something like “Fear Itself” just so I can see Giles in a sombrero?
Your call?
The First
The first was amazing! I also love The Body- Hush- Once more with feeling & well Everything else!!! I’m sorry but I can’t choose, The cast was Fantastic the writing was better than anything on Then & Now! I miss this show! Give us a BTVS Movie with the same Cast & Writers and I’m there!!!
My list was
1. Once More,With Feeling
2. Restless
3. Tabula Rasa
4. Conversations with Dead People
5. The Prom
6. Innocence
7. Becoming, Part 2
8. Selfless
9. Intervention
10. Halloween
wow, that was the hardest list ever to make. I love so many Buffy episodes
omg, I cannot believe I forgot Hush
Thanks, can’t wait!!
The Body
Hush
Fool for Love
Chosen
Lies My Parents Told Me
Smash
The Wish
Becoming 1 and 2
Graduation Day
I think almost every single episode is important to the Buffyverse, but the above would be my must-haves in the 30 hour marathon. I really miss that show!
Pangs.
Gotta love that episode.
opps
I second that, Pangs was always one of my favorite episodes along with I Only Have Eyes For You.
A bear! You made a bear! Undo it! Undo it!
Huh, maybe just let me know what the heck station LOGO is on my ridiculously minimal cable is. Also, you chose tune into Merlin to see Giles being King Uther and struggling with the fact that you get a kick out of him and love Anthony Head and recognize King Uther is part of the underlying plot of Merlin hiding who he is and that turns into the comedy that is Merlin and Arthur’s relationship and the fact that you just want Arthur to know about Merlin already!!
Besides the obvious ones, i.e One More, The Body etc..some of my faves include The Prom, Beer Bad, Hush and Crush.
love love love the prom episode, when angel shows up, buffys dress, AND the award the students give to buffy, all amazing
Aw, I loved the award they gave her too.
I’ve probably seen that episode about 10 times and I still get teary-eyed when Buffy receives her Class Protector award.
I Only Have Eyes For You – My absolute favorite.
That episode is always overlooked! I love it.
YES. I would vote for that episode a hundred times if I could.
Oh, I love that episode too! Very sad yet good!
“Hush,” “The Body,” “Once More, With Feeling” are Top 3
Leaving “Triangle” off of this list is insane troll logic.
Loved Tabula Rasa. “Why don’t you call me Desperate for a Shag Giles?” Loves it.
That is my all time favorite episode. Funny lines/story, plus Michelle Branch singing one of my favorite songs “Goodbye to You”
Oh, choosing just 10 episodes was difficult. I went with:
Prophecy Girl
Innocence
Band Candy
Doppelgangland
Hush
Who Are You?
Fool For Love
The Body
Tabula Rasa
Chosen
I was doing laundry yesterday and totally got sucked into a buffy marathon. I didn’t even know this channel existed. my heart: it’s been won over.
Passion is my all time favorite.
I LOVE this episode! It deserves more appreciation.
Definitely the best season 2 non-Joss episode in my opinion… when Buffy hits Giles and tells him she can’t do this without him, it gets me every time.
Passions is one of my all time favs too. I can’t believe that more people haven’t mentioned it.
Lie To Me got me right in the heart, but it seems to be really underappreciated. It just shows how blurred the line between hero and villain is. Amends mad me bawl, and I just rewatched Fool For Love twice last night it’s so good.
The BEST episode of the show – by far! It’s a shame that it doesn’t get more attention. To me, that episode epitomizes the show. Turning tired concepts on their ear and injecting so much emotion and reality into them that I’m left sitting on my couch, breathless.
Brilliant Joss episode, definitely underappreciated… great line “doesn’t she know any fat guys”
This is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do!
Besides obvious experimental ones like “Hush” and “Once More With Feeling,” my faves include “When She Was Bad,” “Tabula Rasa,” and “This Year’s Girl.”
I once wrote a 20 page paper and did a 40 minute presentation on death on Buffy, using “The Body” as my main text. NERD
what grade did you receive on your paper?
