I usually have to skip the part where Buffy is kicked out of class because I get second-hand embarrassment 🤣 I think I read somewhere that the writers had considered making Sunday a Slaypire (Slayer turned into a vampire) which I think would have been cool. But I also like the way it turned out as well. Idk, might have just been a rumour spread around the Buffy chats lol. Amazing reaction as always! 😊

I loved Sunday as a villain. I’m still disappointed that she was killed off so soon. I don’t know if it’s legit or just rumors, but there’s always been talk amongst the Buffy fandom that Sunday was originally supposed to be the big bad of the season as a former slayer turned vampire. I really wish they had went that route because it would have been interesting. Maybe they didn’t since they already had the Faith storyline last season, with a slayer turning to the dark side. I still think Sunday was too interesting for just a one off episode though.

I feel like its more clear in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie that predates the series. They're *almost* the same continuity because they reference things that happened in the movie in the series but, the timeline and ages don't exactly line up.

Ah yeah, that makes sense! I thought the Council could take matters into their own hands and just pick one of the other slayers who are getting trained behind the scenes that we don't see. I just get a bit confused at times as Kendra was taken from her family at a young age to begin slayer training. I guess I assumed there's others out there getting trained and the council would just appoint one of those to take over if Buffy quits and she's still alive!

AHHH! I wondered if it could be!! That's VERY cool!

It's so funny that Buffy talks about taking a pop culture class, and there have been (maybe still are) courses studying Buffy. I really liked Sunday, I'm sad she died already. She's very sassy. You said that there might be a new "official" slayer, but remember that Kendra was only called because Buffy died, and Faith because Kendra died. The Watcher's Council doesn't choose a slayer, it happens automatically through some mystical means. So unless something big happens, there's only Buffy, and maybe Faith, for now.

Reddit is a hive of insane Leftist scum and villainy, I'd stay away from Reddit if I were you.

Irrelevant, but interesting, tidbit, the guy at the bar who Buffy (and Jules) mistook for Angel was Mike Massa, David Boreanaz/Angel's stunt double.

Angel reactions, big thumbs up. Alternating weekly episodes is the way to go. There are a couple of two-parters within both seasons but the alternating order just means that you will have to be patient waiting for the resolution that is how they were aired originally.

I like Xander! Most people don't like him but I don't think it's his fault... he can't help the way he was written to be 😅 honestly, this episode has shown that he DOES have a good side to him and I'm hopeful that he will continue to grow and mature. It's a great start for him! I loved his talk with Buffy 💜

I get flayed in reddit if I say anything positive about Xander, it's ridiculous.

I love that you have patience with Xander. He has his downsides but he's also got his upsides like all the rest of the characters. I really don't get why it's so popular to dislike him. Though I admit the popular dislike of him makes me like him more.
