I just re-watched the famous Buffy musical episode, after years of listening to the soundtrack. It's still fun and good as a coherent whole.
It did occur to me that Giles' reaction to Buffy's depression, "turn away to force her to stand on her own", is probably terrible. I guess it makes sense if he thought she was being 'detached' or 'lazy' or something, and not 'depressed'.
Xander no.
I've never re-watched the later seasons. Part of me is thinking "apart from the amnesia episode, it's all downhill from here."
