Helpless and Killed by Death are both favorites of mine because they show that even when she is vulnerable, Buffy is a hero.

Also, 'Who Are You', the one where Buffy and Faith switch bodies. They both do such a good acting job that I can almost believe Eliza is in Sarah's body and vice versa...

It's funny you mention "Who are You" because it's one of my favourite episodes but I always get that mixed up with the title of the previous episode - "This Year's Girl"

And you are so right - the acting is wonderful - I have heard criticism of SMGs performances in the latter series but I think this episode blows those complaints out of the water!

Amends! Amends! Amends!

Hardly ever gets a mention, but definitely one of the best ever.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that Joss Whedon said somewhere that he thinks so too...

or maybe I just want to think that...

I juat watched "Forever", the episode just after the body, and I must say, it is amazing as well. Spike and Dawn always shine together, the guy Dawn got the spell from was just CREEPY, and Buffy's breakdown at the end... I cringe at the Angel tidbits (I never could stomach Angel's returns -- its the only part of
"Chosen" I don't like, ugg), but barring that.

How about "The Initiative?"

I just watched it and was reminded that it was actually a very good episode with many funny parts such as:

1) Riley's fumbling flirting with Buffy.
2) Harmony and Xander's catfight
3) Spike's newly chippedness and his inability to bite Willow.

I think it's definitely one of the most underrated eps.

I'm just watching 'Amends' at the moment - it's never as good as it is on Christmas Eve though! I'm pretty sure it's mentioned quite a bit as a stand-out episode tho, it def appears in a lot of top fives.
One of my fav bits (which just went by) in it is when Oz and Willow hug and Willow's hand curls into a little fist as if she never wants to let go! Awwww.....

Any episode that genuinely earns a cheesy 'snow saves the day' ending is worthy of praise ;)

"The Zeppo." I don't know if it gets mentioned a lot, I haven't read a whole lot of lists, but I really love this episode. The reason I love it so much is because it is such a triumph for Xander, who is, for all purposes, us in the show. He's a fan, he recognizes (as we do) when things are cool, and best of all, he has no superpowers and somehow is indispensable to Buffy.

In the same way, I love Potential, for the power it gives Dawn, Xander and us all.

And it got me all choked up.
