I relate so hard. If I'd have known I could drop out and summon a demon I'd have damned well done that in my third year! I got out of my mind in more conventional ways of course, but I totally understand, Giles, yup! :D
Love this episode. Wrecked, drunk, raddled Giles is best Giles :D

I believe Jane Espenson totally thinks they were a thing so I'm inclined to believe it. Why else did Ethan hang around? Just because he still had the lease?! Nah, he was waiting for Ripper to calm down from the Halloween incident before making a move :D

"Bi icons"
You can't throw phrases like that around without posting links to your fan fiction.

Hell yeah, totally feeling you on that. Giles/Ethan has always been my number one ship in the Buffyverse. Even with just two episodes there's so many possibilities. :D

ngl i never got that into jenny/giles (i mean obviously there were *some* moments that got me, i'm not soulless lol, just didn't feel super strongly about them overall), but Alley's really out here captaining the S.S. Jennles and i love it

Richard Lucas
2020-06-25 03:36:33 +0000 UTC
THank you! This cold open, the scene before the credits, is my least favorite of the entire series, and a bitter pill after the previous episode’s cold open with Dru, which is in my top 2 or 3.

Oh, they were terrible, indisputably. It's just that they were a fixed point in the world, EVERYONE knew about them regardless of their rancid music. I was going to compare them to someone who holds the same place in today's music scene but I'm so out of touch with you crazy kids that I haven't got a clue who that would be :D :(

"Are you really living if you haven't summoned a demon in your 20's?"
So, what are you trying to say, Alley?

Kirby, good thing we're allowed to have different opinions :)

i never got any bi subtext from Giles towards Ethan. However I have OTHER theories which I will save for now because spoilers haha. Mostly I saw them as best friends.

2020-06-24 15:12:14 +0000 UTC
Oh shoot, I didn't mean it as an insult to you. I am just old and cranky and don't deal with new fangled things very well. I will try switching to light mode. IF I can figure it out, hahaha (Edited to add: OMG so much better with the white background, although I still feel like you can't really have in depth productive discussions with the chat style thing)
Kirby
2020-06-24 14:47:56 +0000 UTC
I’m 41 and I only know them because they kept on showing up on late night infomercials for 70s rock compilation albums.
Arnold Kim

You can switch between dark and light mode in the appearance tab. As for the chat style scrolling, though... yeah that’s unavoidable.

Hi, i totally understand and i am sorry it isnt more enjoyable for you :(
Main reason I am trying to transition over there is mainly just so i can have mods help with spoilers and things like that. i just added a new channel that is just going to be for people to comment what they would put here on patreon. that way yall still have a way to communicate your thoughts without having to take part in a bigger discussion
again, sorry bout the change, im just testing it out to see how it goes
Alley Box
2020-06-24 13:30:26 +0000 UTC
I’m sorry. Did I stutter on the word BI? Also, it seems mighty convenient to me that the writers threw in a single girl into the mix. Good thing she was there to cry no homo! Wouldn’t want to be subtly queering our subtext or anything.

To be honest I'm exactly Buffy's age and I didn't know them before this episode either ;)
DB
2020-06-24 09:48:45 +0000 UTC
I so agree. I love the reaction but I don’t want Alley to miss ANY of the goodness by missing iconic lines.
Allan Cornett
2020-06-24 07:57:51 +0000 UTC
Well, for me, the talking makes an enjoyable reaction video. I'm sure she catches lines she may have missed because she has to re-watch for editing purposes. So, please do NOT stop talking. :-)
Kirby
2020-06-24 06:15:03 +0000 UTC
The Bay City Rollers aren't really worth knowing.
Kirby
2020-06-24 06:12:11 +0000 UTC
Welp, now that I know what Discord is... yeah, I'm not loving it. Horrible black hurts my eyes and the endless scroll that looks like a chat room - No thanks. I hope people keep commenting here and on youtube. Anyway, that's just my opinion, but I am old, I'm sure the kids love it.
Kirby
2020-06-24 06:03:46 +0000 UTC
There’s just something about the way Giles says “Ethan and I” when he talks about them, two young, hot, London bad boys, as they take turns to invoke a demon most closely associated with orgies that feels so completely heterosexual to me. Clearly something just dudes being dudes do together I guess. And they do it with mostly other guys? Hmm. Sounds super Dudely to me bro. Yup. Ain’t no Bi icons in this episode. Nooosiiirreeeeebob.
Acacia
2020-06-24 05:13:52 +0000 UTC
Really cause she still doesn’t react to the lines. There were like 3 good lines in this episode alone that she was taking during and didn’t seem to catch. But ok
cil
2020-06-24 04:29:03 +0000 UTC
she's using headphones, she can hear the show while she talks.
Shashank
2020-06-24 03:52:06 +0000 UTC
I do find it funny that Sunnydale did feel the need to hire a guy just to make sure the bodies in the morgue are still there. I'll bet that position has a high turnover rate. 😆
ropecrewman36
2020-06-24 03:39:56 +0000 UTC
great reaction. just a suggestion...try not to talk too much during the episode. you tend to miss out on important lines when you do.

2020-06-24 03:13:41 +0000 UTC
oh sorry bout that! im usually good bout it but i slipped up
Alley Box
2020-06-24 03:02:31 +0000 UTC
I fear I might be banned for it but I have to be the grammar police... It's "their" not "there" I feel like I have to point it out because 1) it's one of my pet peeves and 2) as a non native speaker when I see a their / there / they're mistake I have to think for an extra second because I don't understand what is written since I don't directly think of the phonetic but rather of the meaning of a word when I read it

"Is he checking the bodies?" You do realize this is Sunnydale. They should check on bodies hourly just to be sure.

He's done a fair bit of musical theatre - but don't google it - you may hit inadvertant spoilers
Dave Ford
2020-06-23 22:52:46 +0000 UTC
Nah - squee all you like. On a first watch you just need to get in to it and not worry so much about hearing every last line and notice every detail. That comes after having seen it 5+ times!
For instance, I either forgot about it or never noticed that Willow is drinking tea from Giles's green tea cup when she's in the library with Xander and Cordelia. Episodes are littered with little touches and moments that are easy to miss.
I had also forgotten about how much I love the last scene between Buffy and Giles, when she talks to him about realising he's a real person not just an 'adult'. It's great stuff.

2020-06-23 22:52:41 +0000 UTC
Angel has been having a demon inside him for 200 hundred years in form of the vampire since he was turned and that was what he meant ( in response to your comment in your video) hope this does not come of as assholey. :)

I've been looking forward to this one... because you like Giles.

BTW - you're in serious danger of squeeing so hard you miss ESSENTIAL dialogue - like Miss Jenny Calender "I just like to see you squirm" Mr Rupert Giles: " I trust I gave good squirm?"
Dave Ford
2020-06-23 21:38:33 +0000 UTC
Yes, i was going to say - counting to check the number of corpses you started your shift with is the same as the number of corpses you finished with is definitely a thing that goes on in Sunnydale morturaries.
Dave Ford
2020-06-23 21:34:38 +0000 UTC
On more serious level I love how this is foreshadowed in the previous episode. Buffy's very last line to Giles is calling him a liar. And here we dive a bit into why he can be perceived as one. Just like Angel was hiding the ugly truth of consequences of his soulless times, Giles is hiding the reckless stupidity of his youth. Tho tbf who likes to admit once being a bored, privileged guy accidentally killing a friend because you were looking for unconventional ways of getting high... And my fun fact for the episode is that it's a real headshot of ASH photoshopped on Sid Vicious.
DB
2020-06-23 21:33:46 +0000 UTC
"I care from you Lost Weekend-ing in your apartment" is a reference to an old movie about an alcoholic author. I watched it because of that quote, and it's actually pretty good.
zerofk
2020-06-23 21:33:30 +0000 UTC
Fairly sure he was taking the piss. He'd have been ~20 in about 1980. The BCR would have been regarded as childish kiddie-pop by any self-respecting teenager back then.
Dave Ford
2020-06-23 21:32:20 +0000 UTC
But ... but .. stealing blood from the hospital is a 'good solution to the blood thing'. - they don't have to risk fighting anyone and none of the humans get hurt. Plus - did you consider the reason Angel might have been there wasn't to fight the vampires, but to make his own collection?
Dave Ford
