Buffy the Vampire Slayer Talk || s2e07
Added 2020-06-21 03:32:36 +0000 UTCedited version :)
late upload bc my wifi haaaaates me 😌
also, just wondering what y'all might think of this: all discussions for my full reactions can be had on a discord? on there, mods can actually help me since patreon doesn't have that feature. and then there will be a different discussion board place that I won't have access to but y'all can go wild with spoilers and let it out in there (again, I won't read that, I will only read stuff in the non-spoiler section that mods help with)
im not sure if discord is available for everyone or if everyone would want that, but I feel it might be the best option. what do y'all think?

A "discord" is a basket of fruit. It is traditional for Austrian children to give "discords" to their uncles on the summer solstice.

2020-06-22 21:12:01 +0000 UTCyou know what this means right? you have to post the next installment of Buffy so we can get the discord link. ;-)

2020-06-22 19:40:44 +0000 UTCThe Season 6 premiere aired two episodes back to back. That and "Welcome to the Hellmouth"/"The Harvest" are the only two times Buffy ever aired two consecutive episodes.
Cole Crouse
2020-06-22 17:56:51 +0000 UTCIIRC the only time Buffy aired differently than one episode per week is Season 2 episodes 13 and 14 because they switched nights from Monday to Tuesday... and that week they aired back to back days, but not back to back on the same night.

2020-06-22 15:29:02 +0000 UTCokay and i just looked up the air dates, they didnt air at the same time, so i will definitely do 2 different videos but watch them back to back
Alley Box
2020-06-22 13:50:08 +0000 UTCOh i think it's a good idea to watch them together but post separately. it'll help with the potential spoilers. afaik they were airing separately but as a non-american my viewing was always a bit behind and on a slightly different schedule so can't tell you for sure.
DB
2020-06-22 13:06:02 +0000 UTCoh hmmm, i will most likely watch those back to back (but have separate videos for them) did they air back to back like the pilot? (bc if they did, i may do one video) for the pilot, i wasnt aware there was a 2hr premiere when i first started (i found that out when people told me after the fact, or else i wouldve planned on watching both together)
Alley Box
2020-06-22 12:58:23 +0000 UTCLast time I used Discord I was still enjoying my Star Wars Tumblr so it's been a while lol But I have a different question: what are your plans regarding two-part episodes? Will you be reacting to them together or separately? I know you did the Buffy premiere separately but I'm not sure if you knew that they're recommended to be watched as one. Just wondering :)
DB
2020-06-22 11:22:12 +0000 UTCI think a Discord is a great idea to eliminate spoiler concerns. Having a moderated spoiler-free channel will go a long way to preventing people from "accidentally" spoiling things by hinting or referencing things that they think aren't spoilers but actually are. I don't know if this is possible in Discord, but ideally the channel would not allow messages to be displayed at all until they have been approved by a moderator. That would make the channel 100% safe, in particular against any random jerks who might want to intentionally spoil things. I doubt you have a shortage of volunteer moderators, but if you need help with moderation I can volunteer to help out. And, as usual, the Angel cat-bell made me actually laugh out loud even though I knew it was coming. 10/10

2020-06-22 04:40:23 +0000 UTC@Dave Ford, the error signs? i got it off youtube a while ago but i love the IT crown lol
Alley Box
2020-06-22 01:56:13 +0000 UTCDid that bit of video come from The IT Crowd, Alley?
Dave Ford
2020-06-22 01:26:02 +0000 UTCI wonder if its worth Alley's time to drop Liam a message and ask him for what advice he may have?
Dave Ford
2020-06-22 01:25:27 +0000 UTCMaybe after the show. As though it was originally by whedon, he basicaly disowned the cheese fest they created from his script and idea and says he doesnt class it as canon. He ended up doing an origin comic instead to replace the movie, and lead into the show. Personally i cannot stand the movie.

2020-06-22 00:02:31 +0000 UTCAngel’s cat bell will NEVER get old. I love it 😂😂

2020-06-21 23:59:23 +0000 UTCI'm good with anything that helps you avoid spoilers. If Discord can give people a place to still express their thoughts that’s an added bonus. I occasionally use it, it’s a nice place to build a community feel. Also there's still YouTube for people to comment on....one day maybe when you finish the series, you can go back and read more of those comments: I haven't seen so many comments per video on any Buffy reactions, your reactions clearly bring out the hype in people.
Shashank
2020-06-21 20:34:16 +0000 UTCI know you almost certainly aren't at this point yet but I just thought of a thing and wanted to get it in front of your eyes before I forget - you may want to record an explanation of the discord and which rooms will be for what and put it at the top of *all* your Full Length reactions going forward. Leave it out of the YT ones, obvs, but as you get new patrons, a lot of them won't realize that it has a specific purpose and just ignore it/get upset when they can't comment on here. Is disabling comments on these posts a thing you can do? You'll almost need to for it to be effective.

2020-06-21 18:38:33 +0000 UTChaha no worries my dude!! glad you enjoy both versions :D
Alley Box
2020-06-21 17:08:29 +0000 UTClmaoo i feel that! i joined a discord back in december for a minecraft realm and i havent been on in months. (mainly just bc of time) the creator DM’ed me on there like “uhh... u good?” 😂 and yes!! im gonna try and have as many as i can, and you are someone that has been here since the beginning and i trust lol (and dont worry, i barely know discord either, so we can learn together)
Alley Box
2020-06-21 17:07:11 +0000 UTCI agree a Discord would be absolutely awesome.
Rock and Roll Joe
2020-06-21 17:06:10 +0000 UTCDiscord sounds like a good idea, especially since it can be linked through Petreon. I suppose I should log in again - I haven't been on mine in like 6 months, my WoW guild probably thinks I died or something lol. lmk if you are short on mods for the spoiler-free zones. I would have to figure out how it works because I never have on Discord before, but I can totally learn :D
Lindsey Metcalfe
2020-06-21 16:38:04 +0000 UTCHear! Hear!
ropecrewman36
2020-06-21 16:02:16 +0000 UTCAlley, you should definitely react to the 12th Doctor episodes "Listen" and "Mummy on the Orient Express." 12 may be the complete opposite of 10, but at maybe try a reaction to two of his best (Series 8) stories, just for fun?
ropecrewman36
2020-06-21 16:00:52 +0000 UTCIn the words of Snyder..."Won't that be interesting."
ropecrewman36
2020-06-21 15:58:25 +0000 UTCLove the discord idea. Also, I'm sorry that I've fallen behind with full reactions. This is the first time since becoming a Patron that I saw the (very excellent) edited version before seeing the full version. I promise to catch up soon! Love both versions of the reactions, though! Willow with the computer error signs cracked me up so much!
ropecrewman36
2020-06-21 15:54:30 +0000 UTCOn his discord we have a spoiler chat (which he doesn't go in) and a spoiler-free chat that he participates in
John Sturchio
2020-06-21 15:51:47 +0000 UTCLiam Duke has one and it's been great
John Sturchio
2020-06-21 15:50:48 +0000 UTCI think discord is a great idea
John Sturchio
2020-06-21 15:50:32 +0000 UTCThanks, I can probably figure it out.
Kirby
2020-06-21 15:49:13 +0000 UTCits an app that you can get on your phone or computer. totally free, just need to make an account. its basically a chatroom that i set up and every patron has access to (there will be 3 “chatrooms”: a general one for non-buffy stuff, a spoiler-free buffy discussion, and then a buffy discussion with spoilers) i am still a little new to discord as well so it wont be anything too fancy. basically just these comment sections on a different platform that mods could help control :)
Alley Box
2020-06-21 15:18:58 +0000 UTCTo each their own, but I despised Stephen Moffat's tenure on Doctor Who. I did love "Blink" that was a great episode, but I disliked the "Silence in the Library" two parter that introduced Mary Sue River Song. Tennant is my favorite of the modern Doctors. I'm really liking Jodie Whitatker, too.
Kirby
2020-06-21 15:15:03 +0000 UTCWhat's discord? I am old, haha....
Kirby
2020-06-21 15:06:34 +0000 UTCDiscord is a good place for that type of bifurcated (trifurcated ?) discussion. It does, I believe need some admin time so that would require more time, or it's delegation. I'd like a place to have those discussions.
Jon Freezin-Rain
2020-06-21 13:43:22 +0000 UTCYour editing was amazing as always! 💓 So freaking entertaining, I absolutely loved it 😂😂 Angel's bell NEVER cease to both surprise me and make me laugh out loud, and Willow's error message was perfect lol. Also nice call back to Buffy's "but I'm still pretty" dialog, didn't catch that the first time
SpikesEcho
2020-06-21 10:20:16 +0000 UTCI think discord is an excellent route to take! When you post here, you can just direct people there (to the non spoiler section thread) for commenting, and to the spoiler section for discussion
SpikesEcho
2020-06-21 10:00:10 +0000 UTCAlley, please tell me you at least got as far as 'Listen' in Doctor Who? Capaldi might be a bit of an acquired taste, but Listen is a little masterpiece. You should also check out Sherlock when you have free time - a brilliantly conceived and constructed show.
Dave Ford
2020-06-21 08:37:45 +0000 UTCDiscord is an excellent idea. Love your reactions. You are the best I've seen...some of the worst episodes (Teacher's Pet), you still bring excitement and enjoyment to the reaction. Very well done!
Kim Meier
2020-06-21 08:19:05 +0000 UTCOh I'm so down, this show is so important to me I could write a thesis entitled "Buffy the...TLDR"
Chris Hanley
2020-06-21 06:59:12 +0000 UTCI have not used discord, but I understand it's more of a chat program than a message board? I'm not sure that's well suited for this because chat implies a certain immediacy which makes it harder for people in different time zones.
zerofk
2020-06-21 06:55:22 +0000 UTCAlso I don't know if you know this already but discord and patreon can be linked, so you can set up the discord or just specific rooms in discord to be patreon only :)
MagnusVD
2020-06-21 06:35:39 +0000 UTCI think a discord is a great idea. And as someone else said, at least 3 channels (general, non-spoiler, and spoiler) would be great. That way we can chat amongst ourselves in spoiler chat (lord knows I want to say things in reaction to predictions/comments you make but I can’t here because I do not ever want to spoil you) and also have a no spoiler space to talk about the show up to whatever episode you’re on.
Liz Siron
2020-06-21 06:30:15 +0000 UTCLess comment avenues the better, you will be spoiled, for sure and there are somethings that really need preserving tbh!
Phoenix Dawn
2020-06-21 06:13:54 +0000 UTCyup!! there will be a general one as well :)
Alley Box
2020-06-21 05:52:06 +0000 UTCso at least 3 channels. spoiler, non spoiler and general
Nicholas J Hoover
2020-06-21 05:51:15 +0000 UTCi think it's a great idea but personally I'd want a general chat channel and a latest reaction discussion channel so that those 2 experiences can be seperated
Nicholas J Hoover
2020-06-21 05:50:10 +0000 UTCNo worries, I await your Buffy reactions!
Paul Casey
2020-06-21 05:34:58 +0000 UTCYou really should react to the movie as well at some point
Rock and Roll Joe
2020-06-21 05:33:17 +0000 UTCive seen up to the first couple of episodes for the 12th doctor (i didnt really like capaldi that much :/ ) but yes i do really love Moffat’s stuff (Blink is my favorite episode ever and I force all my friends to watch it since u dont need to know doctor who to enjoy it) i also watched the show Sherlock which... oo boi, wish that show ended a little better but 🤷🏻♀️ I feel Moffat is best as a writer and not as a producer (totally my opinion based on just the stuff I have seen from him, and i formed that opinion like 5 years ago so if I rewatched it, I might think differently lol) but nonetheless, i do love the 11th doctor, but david tennant is *chefs kiss*
Alley Box
2020-06-21 05:31:06 +0000 UTCOk. Cool. People tend to forget to let reactors in on this and I really didn't want you to miss out.
Nica Marie
2020-06-21 04:47:38 +0000 UTChaha okay sweet! thanks for the heads up! I will watch all the way thru next time :)
Alley Box
2020-06-21 04:39:00 +0000 UTCDiscord is probably best to avoid spoilers. I wouldn't read comments here. I have seen a few reactors, Liam Duke recently, have really fantastic moments be spoiled because posters were making allusions and pointing out things to notice, and he figured it out. That sucks for the creator and for the the audience who appreciate the distraction and opportunity to see someone else discover a show we enjoy. I think most of the time it is not mean spirited or ill intentioned, but the result is the same. Buffy has lots of opportunities throughout the seasons to be inadvertently spoiled.
Leenis
2020-06-21 04:29:10 +0000 UTCXander " Someone should put a bell on that guy!" Loved this reaction. The bell killed me every time! Willow is my favorite character, has the best development and growth throughout the whole series. So the 10th Doctor was your favorite huh? Well I would love to see you react to the 11th and 12th, the only writer that comes close to Joss Whedon is Steven Moffat ( responsible for Dr Who 11th and 12th, always hanging out for your reactions they're the best!
Paul Casey
2020-06-21 04:28:30 +0000 UTCI know on my Roku you can manage to see all the credits if you try. It's important to know the original logo for the following reasons: it changes 3 separate times. I'll try to inform you in time to see these. Also, they do reference the logo in dialogue at least once. So, if you haven't seen it, you miss the reference.
Nica Marie
2020-06-21 04:27:55 +0000 UTCI think Discord is probably the best way to avoid spoilers, wish it didn't have to come to that but they'll just get worse as the seasons progress. You probably already have enough interest, but if you need any more mods I can help out as I mod some other discords too :)
Jenn Rose
2020-06-21 04:22:38 +0000 UTCI have not. (except the puppet episode when there was a scene during the credits) Hulu knocks it off basically after Joss' name pops up
Alley Box
2020-06-21 04:19:36 +0000 UTCJust a quick question, have you ever watched all the way through the credits to the Mutant Enemy logo?
Nica Marie
2020-06-21 04:17:11 +0000 UTCoh yeah, I totally forgot to mention that during my wrap up. holy shittt 😬 that is so messed up
Alley Box
2020-06-21 03:52:23 +0000 UTCI'm all in for a discord!
Rachel Espiritu
2020-06-21 03:43:33 +0000 UTCRegarding Angel and Drusilla he didn't just kill her friends and family and then turn her . . . He saw her one day and because she was innocent and pure he became obsessed with the idea of defiling and corrupting her. He killed her friends and family with the specific intention to torture her . . . but that's not all he did to her. he tortured her in other ways. he literally drove her insane. that's why she acts this way. and when she was completely broken he turned her into a vampire. The dialogue was Angel: I did a lot of unconscionable things when I became a vampire. Drusilla was the worst. She was an obsession of mine. She was pure, and sweet, and chaste. Buffy: And you made her a vampire... Angel: First I made her insane. I killed everybody she loved, visited every mental torture on her I could devise. She eventually fled to a convent, and on the day she took her Holy Orders, I turned her into a demon.
Roger C Lackman
2020-06-21 03:41:17 +0000 UTCI wouldn't participate in a discord, but I think it's a great idea - I have hardly any online fun time anyhow ;)
bewildered
2020-06-21 03:38:45 +0000 UTCI think that's a great idea.

2020-06-21 03:36:12 +0000 UTCI think that’s an A+ idea
