Episode Discussion: 2x16 Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered
Since we aren't going to have new episodes to discuss, we're going to have weekly episode discussion threads for old episodes. New threads will, of course, appear each Tuesday. :)
Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered It's Valentine's Day, but Cordelia and Xander's romance has hit a bad patch, since Cordelia is losing status as Head Bitchqueen of Sunnydale High. Desperate to remain popular, she dumps Xander, even though she still loves him. Xander spies Amy Madison use magic to avoid doing homework, so he blackmails her into casting a love spell on Cordelia, so he can dump her to make her feel as bad as he does. However, the spell backfires, and every woman in Sunnydale except Cordelia falls madly in love with Xander — and we do mean madly. Buffy, Joyce, Willow, Jenny, Drusilla and every other woman, including Amy herself, fight amongst themselves for Xander's attention, with Amy turning Buffy into a rat to eliminate some of the competition. Xander runs away to Buffy's house, and is seconds away from being killed by the love-crazed horde, when Giles finally manages to break the spell. Cordelia decides Xander is worth putting up with the catcalls from the rest of the school, and they get back together. (Episode summary on loan from buffyguide.com) RtS: #71; beat Lessons in the first round; lost to Once More, With Feeling in the second round. I love this episode, I really do. I always liked Xander/Cordelia, and this was their best episode. I loved Cordelia sneaking behind her locker door to take off the necklace when Xander wanted it back. Ms. Calendar, Amy and Buffy fighting over Xander was a hoot; Willow sneaking into Xander's bed was both funny and a little sad, considering their history; and of course, there was Drusilla rescuing Xander from Angelus because she loved him. The absolute best, though, was the ending. Xander does this horrible, misguided spell that almost leads to total disaster, yet Cordelia sees it as a good thing because it was all about her. It was such a perfectly Cordelia thing for her to do that I'll always enjoy watching it. Please feel free to post your comments, screencaps, favorite scenes and quotes. Next week: 2x17, Passion. |
LMAO! :rotfl: :lol: :lmao: Who doesn't love this episode!?
http://www.buffyworld.com/buffy/seas...caps/28_02.jpg I love it when Angel just pulls Xander out the window and then Dru saves him! :rotfl: http://www.buffyworld.com/buffy/seas...caps/28_08.jpg Teehee! Naked Buffy rat :lol: :D http://www.buffyworld.com/buffy/seas...caps/28_13.jpg The bit at the end where Cordy stands up to Harmony was really amazing and I felt very proud of her ;) :goof: http://www.buffyworld.com/buffy/seas...caps/28_24.jpg "Let Joycey in" :rotfl: :lol: The Joyce/Xander thing has been hinted at more inlater seasons... I personally think it's a bit.... odd :look: http://www.buffyworld.com/buffy/seas...caps/28_33.jpg Poor Spikey :cry: I wish Angel would just fall on a chair leg and die :mad: :( |
I made this.. and Jen was telling me to bring it over here. Cordy/Xander.
BBB is my favorite Xander related episode. ( even if he only has er.. two or so. ) Jen - Joyce/Xander is very odd. And I love the part with Buffy and Oz. Buffy: You think you can get me some clothes? Oz: Yes I can. Just uh.. don't go anywhere. Buffy: Really not an issue. |

Lol because of her "slight case of nudity" :lol: |
The funniest episode of s2. :D
I loved all the funny Xander pairings, although J/X was a bit disturbing. :goof: And I'm I the only one who likes Buffy/Oz? :smirk: |
A great episode!
Amy is a great character, good to see her here. Love spells always fun. Xander/Cordy... hilarious as always. I love them. Plus Buffy's slight case of nudity. :abduct::read: |
Yeah, I really liked Amy too until she went all freaky deaky in season 6 :( bah :pout:

Joyce/Xander is creepy, particularly considering Xander is quite creepy enough already just by himself.

I loved this episode. When Buffy comes into the library wearing just a raincoat...the look on Xander's face is priceless.
