Looks like a fun episode. Spike and Angel go out on an adventure. I can't wait to see it. Plus flashbacks are always great!

Really looking forward to seeing Julie and Tom again. Not so much looking forward to the swirling blonde Buffy wig. The story sounds like a good one though! Can't wait - as always!

*Sweetie*

I hate to say it, but I'm kinda dreading this episode. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img]

Although I didn't know about Fred's parents coming back. That should be interesting. And Andrew will be great to see again, too.

I just hate the B/S/A and The Immortal storyline. But I guess since it's written by Drew Goddard and Steven DeKnight, it can't be all that bad. *crosses fingers*

I think the episode will be good as far as dialogue goes but ultimately it will be disappointing because there's no Buffy in an epsiode about Buffy!!!

Should be interesting to see how Illyria reacts to Fred's parents.

I also look forward to seeing Darla again.

I agree. I expect to hate this episode. I hope I'm wrong.

Actually when I first saw this thread last night I thought I had my days mixed up, and I was under the delusion that it was Wednesday for the next hour or so.

And let me just say again, after looking at the trailer pics, that Angel's hair is too short or something. I don't like it. It makes his face look bigger.

[img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] Sorry to add to the confusion! I've been getting my days mixed up too lately.


I remember in the beginning of the year people were complaining that David's hair was too long. Now its too short? I'll have to look at it in great detail(with pleasure) to see if it is different than it has been all year. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

[img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Ya know, I really think he has gone through a lot of hair changes this season. Let me know what you discover!

Loved this episode. Spike and Angel action! How great were they together? I love their bonding moments. And the Darla/Spike/Angel/Dru scene was hillarious. Its a classic now!

Didn't mind the chasing of Buffy moments. I think it got Angel and Spike to a developmental point where they realized it just isn't time right now. The message was driven into them strongly enough that Buffy is moving on. Who knows why she would choose to move on with someone who is questionably good or bad while still saying she isn't ready for Angel or Spike. But I don't really care anymore.

Really hated that Angel all the sudden had a "girlfriend". I don't like Nina. And the fact that development in their relationship has happened off screen cheats me. The preview for next week with him and her in bed puzzles me. But I don't like it.

Illyria being Fred was an interesting turn. We didn't know she could form the image of Fred. But how great was Amy when she switched back and forth between talking and acting like Fred and then having the death stare and low voice of Illyria. I never knew how great an actress she was!
