Buffy 14 April 03

[myrdden]

Plot

Faith returns to Sunnydale along with a mysterious preacher named Caleb.


Thoughts

The first 3/4 of the episode was rather slow and a bit tedious but the dialogue between Faith and Spike was satisfying. I suppose the first bit was to show Faith getting up to speed with life in modern Sunnydale. It wasn't bad...just a tad slow. Xander does give a nice speech, and Andrew still cracks me up everytime he talks. He has a couple good lines.

Caleb is intriguing. I'm not sure what to think of him yet but he is a great villian so far. Who else from Firefly is going to show up? I don't want to give too much away for people, but after this episode I think the next 4 are going to be pretty intense. The last 15 minutes of the episode are well worth the previus 45 minute buildup (that includes the commercials too I guess).

I give the episode 8/10 - things are not well in Sunnydale after tonights episode.

Gina "Zoë" Torres showed up on Angel.

After seeing Caleb, I REALLY started missing Firefly.

For those that haven't seen it yet, keep an eye out for something big to happen to one of the main characters

Also a couple of Andrews lines (Vulcans and Godzilla) were funny

ARRRRGHHHH!

I turn on the local UPN station after looking forward to the new Buffy & Faith episode and what do I get - the 7th Inning of the Red Sox/Tampa Bay Game! #*@$!# sports station! Wish they'd stayed on WB.

I like dark stuff, but watching buffy is painful sometimes ... they're getting beat left right and sideways.

that being said I really miss firefly!!!



... and please tell me they're not going to go "week on/week off" for the new episodes!!!

5 left ... that's 10 weeks of torture!

Wow, after last week's Angel and this week's Buffy, Joss sure is going for the gross-out blowout, isn't he?

I'm going to talk about it, because these threads are traditionally spoilerific for the current week only, nothing about next week please!



A little space though



So Caleb says "You're the one that sees. Let's see what we can do about that."

That was a conversation that Xander and Dawn had privately. Has the First been watching everyone the whole time? I guess so.

The preacher schtick kept cracking me up. "You're the Cain to her Able. No offense to Cain of course."

And wow, that guy was way tougher than he initially let on.

Apparently there's a rerun next week, and then four new episodes. That should be all of them.

Oh, man, that was rough. Great episode.
