Some of your predictions for the finale, I was like "I wish...."Also, I think you're like the only person I've seen, who still kinda likes Kennedy at this point. As for Charmed, it is kinda like with Buffy, you have to get through the first season(not even the whole season really, just the first half of it) while the show finds it's footing and gets going. It does have some stinker episodes, and some great ones, but I feel like it gets it's mojo in the 2nd season, even if the witches aren't quite your thing. There is a reason it was pretty iconic along with Buffy in 90's-2000s. Also I join in with others, you should watch last 2 Buffy episodes together.

Spike: "No?" Buffy: "No." Spike: "You mean 'no' as in 'eventually'?" Buffy: "You really have problems with that word, don't you?" Sigh. Yet another reactor who totally misses how that's a callback to The Scene That Shall Not Be Named in season 6. Great reaction. Except...I wish you would stop saying the last half of this season is when the show finally kicked things up. That's just because that's when you started making the big connections about The First, The Bringers, the Ubervamps, and Caleb. Aside from Caleb, the connections were there the entire season, since the season premiere. You missed it in the opening sequence of the first few episodes of the season where Potentials were getting hunted down and killed by the Bringers. You missed it when The First did its first big speech to Spike in the school basement at the end of the season premiere, when it went through the appearances of all of Buffy's previous Big Bads throughout the years. You missed it when Andrew and Jonathan were talking about getting the same message "From beneath you, it devours" message (only in Spanish, since they were in Mexico at the time) that was repeated at the beginning of the season. There was a WHOLE lot of build up that you missed out on. The season kicked it up a gear and started making the connections more clear in Conversations with Dead People. And I STILL don't think the connection was fully there for you. Not until Caleb arrived. There were only a couple standalone episodes this season that didn't directly tie into the overarching story of the season (Amy's revenge on Willow episode, or the Him episode of the jock w/ the supernaturally lucky letterman jacket for example), but season 7 def didn't wait until the halfway mark to kick in. All that being said...you're better late than never! LOL. Glad you're enjoying the show again. Would be awesome for you to go back and see the things you missed but prob not worth it at this point. I absolutely agree with the suggestion above about watching the last 2 episodes as close to back to back as possible to get the full effect. And I challenge you to let that be the 1 hour and 20 mins period where you don't look at your phone one single time. ;)

Yeah, Charmed gets good halfway through season 1 and then it gets wonderful halfway through season 2 and by season 3 it's just plain fantastic. I think Steven had warmed up to witchy storylines thanks to TVD and the Originals so hopefully he'll like Charmed going forward as it's really an iconic show, just like Buffy

I'll agree I think it is neat that you are the one of the only reactors I've seen who likes Kennedy. She is probably one of the least liked characters in the series and almost every reactor I've seen has opinions ranging from hate to indifference.

Man I hope he watches and releases the next 2 as one long episode that would be epic!

It's kind of funny to me that in this episode you were cheering on Faith when she did that speech and told them that she was in charge and they would fall in line or else. Yet, when Buffy was doing the same thing, you said you were against it and she should be hearing them out. Yes, you're right. The show is paralleling Buffy and Faith and how the group is treating them. Yes, we are supposed to (as the audience) be on Buffy's side. I mean...Spike's right. Buffy had lead them through battle successfully time and time again. Then they turn on her just because the tension's high and some get hurt/die? Yes, Buffy technically lead them into a trap at Calebs. Some girls died and Xander lost an eye. However, SHE WAS RIGHT. The girls had to face battle eventually. She couldn't coddle them forever. Also, Caleb was protecting something that they needed, which is why Buffy said that she felt she had to go there. He was protecting the weapon. Buffy's instincts as the slayer have been a BIG part of this show. They've mentioned her having prophetic dreams and feelings that guide her to make the right choices. Yet, the minute things get a little bit tough...everyone...including the scoobies and her own sister abandons her. That's ridiculous. The first is their biggest threat yet. Buffy has already said that some might die. Heck, some of the potentials already HAVE died. But that doesn't mean her calls were wrong. She's the leader and they should have trusted her to make the right choices. We know from previous episodes where she's literally had mental breakdowns how seriously she takes her job and how the choices she makes weights on her. Obviously getting this kids killed is not what Buffy wants. She's terrified that she's going to lead them into battle and they'll all die. She NEEDED the gang to have her back and tell her that she's doing the right thing. Instead, the took all her fears and doubt in herself and made them even worse by confirming them and telling her what she's doing is wrong. Also, you thought the plan to go to Caleb's was bad, which is why you were against Buffy in those scenes. However, again...you have to trust that the slayer, after 7 seasons of watching her make choices and come out on top...knows what she's doing.

All hail queen Buffy! Love that this group is on Buffys side on this matter. They blame Buffy for what happened in the vineyard…but going into the sewers where its dark, has many different entry points they don’t know about without any recon is beyond moronic. But it was an ego trip to make them feel more important. Especially from Dawn and Giles. Spikes speech to the Scoobies was chefs kiss perfect. Giles is still salty that Buffy outgrew him. And Willow is also extremely upsetting, I can understand her character arch this season but I don’t like it much. The kicking out of Buffy and her attitude afterwards is so S1 meek little Willow. If you are going to kick Buffy out at least be tough about it like Dawn and not pouty voice and cow-sad eyes about it.

spike blaming faith and then punching her was always weird to me because it wasn't faith's decision to kick buffy out...nor was it her decision to take over as leader. she didn't want the role. it was pretty much handed to her and she took buffy's advice of ..."don't be afraid to lead them".

cil

also, i don't know when you plan to start angel season 5 or if you've been told this already...but do NOT watch the opening credits for angel 5x01. :)

Cassidy

He wasn't there for the fight , and knew Buffy was holding animosity toward her so I think he assumed . He was wrong , but it's a Spike move to be impulsive a lot of the time . Plus , her and Willow both stepped up to him when talking which isn't a good idea if he's mad , but I think he knows better than to pick a fight with Willow .

Terri

Yeah, but regardless of whether it was Faith's decision, Spike KNOWS that she is in charge now. He knows that she could have stepped up and backed Buffy more. They could ONLY kick Buffy out because they had Faith in the first place. So, ultimately, as the next leader in charge, it WAS on Faith. As she told them this episode...she's in charge and it's her call. No, I don't think Faith intentionally wanted things to go down that way, but she also didn't stop it. She didn't step up as a leader in that moment and tell them they were in the wrong. So as another slayer...it is on Faith. Also, Faith and Willow are the ones that stepped up to him about Buffy. Spike was just dropping the truth on all of them with his speech and his actions. Besides, the fight was pure posturing between the two of them. Spike wanted the group to know they had done wrong and took it out on Faith because she's strong and he could. Faith obviously hit back.

Going to save and watch this and your reactions to the last episode (or episodes, depending on how you decide to do it!) together!

cil

i disagree. i don't think anything faith said would've stopped them from kicking buffy out. i also don't think faith assumed she'd be the next leader once buffy was kicked out because she didn't want the role. out of all the people for spike to punch and take his frustrations out on for buffy getting kicked out...faith was arguably the LEAST one at fault, which is why it always annoyed me that he took out his frustrations on her. he would've been better off punching xander.
