I've skimmed through all the posts so far,a nd I don't think anyones even name-checked my favourate. Which in some ways I like, because I get to talk about it.
Yes all the big dramatic and of season finales are amazing and comedic likes of bad-candy, bewitched bothered and biwildered & OMWF entertain you like nothing else.
But favourate has always been series 5 episode 7 "Fool for love". For those of you who haven't seen it, at the start of the episode buffy gets badly injured fighting just one, normal run of the mill vampire. This throughs into perspective how no matter how good she gets, she can still die at any time. She tries to find out about how other slayers have dies in the past - about their final batles, but Giles can't find any such records. So she turns to the only "living" person who's seen a slayer die. Spike, whos killed two in his lifetime. What follows is a fantasticly writen kourney back thorugh the history of spike. How he became a vampire, how he sought out and killed the two slayers.
From the instant Buffy and Spike sit down together in the Bronze to the outstanding ending it was non-stop high quality tv. It was here in this episode that the fragilness of the salyer was first looked at. The beginning of a plot line that would climax in her death. And at the same time we were given this fantastic insight into the heart of spike. Understanding that he was never really a destroyer, just a rebel without a cause.

As for a second favourate..... well I'm a sucker for Faith. So probably Bad girls

Hottest. Scene. Ever.

It's worth it just to hear the zipper.



What happens in this scene then? I've not seen this episode.

As for me, favourite+best episodes would have to be:

OMWF - it's just so great .
Hush - I just think this episode is brilliant, really good.
The Gift - I saw this episode in the US actually, so yes, the adverts definitely destroyed the "Wow" factor somewhat - but still great.

I think I may buy some series boxsets - any reccomendations? (sorry about offtopicness)

"Smashed" is the EP in season 6 where Buffy and Spike have sex for the first time. they trash a whole building in the process. ok the building wasn't new to begin with but it was smashed afterwards.
