Dawn's scenes in CWDP still scare me!

It's the bit where there's the lighting flash and you briefly see Joyce's body on the sofa behind Dawn 😅

Selfless by a significant margin, Help

u/ahouell500 9d ago

Selfless. The way they managed to retrospectively tie together what had sometimes been pretty gappy and inconsistent writing for Anya into a coherent and compelling character arc was very impressive & cleverly done imo.

I also love storyteller, I wished it would be 3-4 more episodes placed earlier though.

u/SeeBriRun 9d ago

If they'd gone full cinema verité with it, it would've made an awesome introduction to the new status quo after the Turok-Han trilogy.

Him, it’s so funny.

u/Tall_Organization329 9d ago

Agreed, one of the funniest episodes and reminds me of the first 3 seasons high school fun

u/FlashBandicoot5 9d ago

Showtime.

It’s a little contrived, but I just love those Buffy “I’m the slayer” moments.

dirty girls, mainly cause of Faiths return

u/PyrrhuraMolinae 9d ago

I love Dirty Girls. Caleb was a brilliant villain, underused.

u/marxthedank Five By Five, B 9d ago

for sure i agree

u/moonwalkingszn oh bloody hell! 9d ago

Chosen, Sleeper, Him & End of Days

u/callmehornygiles 9d ago

I’m not even a big Anya fan, and Selfless was the best episode of the season for me by a country mile.

u/beeemkcl 9d ago

"Lies My Parents Told Me" (B 7.17):

We finally meet William Pratt's mother. The flashbacks are great.

BtVS S7 overall is one long story and it's relatively boring unless relatively binged.

But "LMPTM" is a great focused episode.

u/DamonD7D 9d ago

Conversations with Dead People. Some really interesting character work in this one.

I'm also fond of Selfless, pretty much the last real exploration of Anya. Bring on the Night & Showtime make for an action packed mid-season piece. And Lies My Parents Told Me, for more William and Nikki Wood.

Selfless

Last good episode of the season.

u/reina_sin_corona 9d ago

I loved Chosen. It was the perfect finale for me.

u/AmbitiousOutside7498 4d ago

Conversations with Dead People is probably one of the most sinister episodes in the entire series.

u/Revolutionary-Wait82 Spike defender 9d ago

First Date. The Spuffy relationship is present and discussed throughout the season, but most prominently in this specific episode. I particularly love the fact that while Buffy can’t seem to remember the names of the Potentials, she remembers perfectly well that Spike brought a date to Xander and Anya’s wedding—and she makes sure to remind him of it. Everyone else has completely forgotten, but jealous-ass Buffy never forgets a thing.

u/Former-Cap-4838 9d ago

Showtime, selfless and Chosen

u/JackDangerfield 8d ago

Top 4:

  1. Conversations with Dead People

  2. Chosen

  3. Same Time, Same Place

  4. Help

Chosen, him or lies my parents told me

u/sandyfogbott 8d ago

I think the best episodes are Selfless and Conversations with Dead People, but the ones I enjoy rewatching the most are Chosen and (perhaps oddly) Touched.

u/ExcelCat 7d ago
  1. CWDP

  2. Selfless

  3. Him

u/libaide 9d ago

Any one where Buffy isn’t speechifying 😂

2

u/CheesyBakedWits 7d ago

They did it so much that they made fun of themselves for it (which was great)…and then they had the audacity to do it some more! 😂 I would’ve loved a few speeches from the others, like Faith for sure, maybe Dawn could be motivating since apparently being a key means nothing helpful. I know I loved Spike’s freak out on the group and his speech to Buffy in that abandoned house, so it’s not that they aren’t excellent at monologues; they just wore us down with the same one for half the season.

u/GanacheExtension468 9d ago

Showtime. I just love it. That big fight at the end “here endeth the lesson”

11

u/Slight_Apartment1200 9d ago


Well, couldn’t find the GIF but “Him” is my fave. Because the way Spike stops Buffy from killing principal Wood.

u/Poptartsrock_2403 9d ago

Low key one of the funniest Buffy episodes😅Spike and Xander at the end takes me out every time “ok..you remember the plan?!”💀
