Spike and Joyce... the most hilariously weird yet awesome relationship on the show. I love them. 😄 "Well, [Druscilla] sounds very unreasonable." Lol. Supportive mom Joyce, even with Spike. ❤
5:09 - Suzanne Krull, the actress who played the magic shop clerk, also played a psychic on a few episodes of the show "Lost" - I guess she has a "psychic, magic shop clerk" type face?
james marsters, who played spike, literally burned himself and had to go to the hospital. he was so desperate for work at the time then when they asked him if he had any experience with fire stunts, he lied and said that he had.
The reason given for the Cordelia death fake out was to make audiences realize how much they have actually grown to like/love her as a character in contrast with most viewer’s feelings towards her in the earlier episodes of the series. Have to say, it worked pretty well.
Spike isn’t just a vampire, he’s almost an energy vampire. He comes into town miserable and without direction, and his actions (on purpose or inadvertently) cause everyone involved to be miserable as he leaves, cheery and revitalized
i really need to get the backstory book about Spike, Angelus, Drusilla and Darla...it is set before BTVS...some of the stuff from it is shown on TV series...small clips...but it's basically about when they were travelling together in the old days.
Man I loved your reaction to this one. Hit every beat I wanted. The writers must have had SO much fun with the funeral at the end KNOWING how deep they were cutting the audience. The fear, denial, anger, relief and more anger... I remember it well ^^
"I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it." Heeee. Great line, Spike. Though I hated how vicious he was being with Willow (nobody should make Willow cry, damn it!)... you've got to admit, Spike is a very entertaining character. 🙂
Thoughts about this episode. 1. Was it playing fair with the audience to cut to "Cordelia's funeral"? Nope. Was it worth doing? Yep. Why? Because it shows the audience how much they've come to care about all the characters... even Cordelia. Many viewers hated Cordelia at the beginning, but by this point they are in a panic when they think she might die. 2. Spike rolls into town, and when he leaves, there are NO couples left in Sunnydale. All three main teen ships go down. All the way down. They sunk. They're rotting at the bottom of the ocean. It's the triple shipwreck episode.
Spike genuinely enjoying Joyce's company and having (I presume) no intentions of actually hurting her, but being thrilled to use the opportunity to do some top tier screwing with Angel, will never not be one of my favorite things 😂😂
James Marsters(always mix my spelling with the person who play cyclops in x men) was one of the only characters i liked in Smallville/the runaways lol...two different shows and he was the only person that was ok for me, also great in supernatural and although i did not like the script, he was great in Torchwood too
Really? I liked smallville a lot but his character there isn't great. I mean his fitire self from the last season is OK but the best non Spike James Marsters character is Charlamagne Bolivar from Andromeda.
James Marsters acting skills is what saved him. He was meant to be a semi long monster of the week type thing that would get it in the end but he had such a massive fan base they kept him reccurring.
In regards your viewers' reactions to your reaction to the Cordelia / funeral scene let me quote Tech Sergeant Chen in the movie "Galaxy Quest" - "It's the simple things in life you treasure."
I love watching reactors get to this episode because it makes them realize how much they like Cordelia even more than they actually knew they did. Also, Cordelia's injury was actually based on an accident that Charisma Carpenter had when she was a little girl & fell into an open pool being built & was impaled by a rebar pipe in the exact same spot. She even still has the scar to this day.
fun fact... Spike was meant to be killed off after 4 episodes but was so well received by audiences the execs on buffy ordered Joss Whedon to not kill him and bring him back as a regular.
Hah, congrats, you've now joined a 20+ year lineage of fans getting got by that funeral scene - it happens to the best of us... And it happens to the rest of us :). Great episode this one, lots of big moments but some fun little moments too, like Joyce and Spike (a character who, agreed, can be scary, pathetic, funny and heartfelt all within the same scene, partly due to the writing and partly just James Marsters having acting chops to spare and then some).
ahhhh yes, this ep that a lot of viewers long to see reacted to with the: return of the Spike, spitting funny and truth bombs, the awkward "friendship" between Joyce/Spike, the predictable reveal of Xander/Willow's relationship, and then of course the "writer's troll" with Cordy's apparent demise...... Not! lol always a good thing to look forward to and you didn't disappoint, D! Great stuff as always.... a CTU for you today and keep em coming!
Spike the greatest character in The Buffyverse! Was great to see him back here. Lover's Walk another super episode keeping up the great quality of S3. All the relationships here are having problems Angel/Buffy, Spike/Drusilla and the Oz/Willow/Xander/Cordelia situation. Spikes monologue was very true regarding Buffy and Angel he really nailed it there. You can really see how the writing is now much more intense in that it really delves into the Psyche of each characters emotions. Season 3 is just banger after banger after banger!
This episode was great all around. The drama, the comedy, the love, it was all on point. The writers giveth and they taketh away. Everyone falls for that fake out of Cordy's death. But hey, we now know you love her. Aww 🤗 Charisma Carpenter did have an accident when she was a little girl during construction outside her home and a rebar did go through her in the same spot her character had the injury. She did end up with a scar because of it. But what some people don't know is that paranormal things have happened to the actress for most of her entire life. Charisma has said that she felt someone had pushed her from behind and she fell onto a rebar and caused that injury to her but said no one was there when it happened. If you look her up on YT, you'll see a few vids of her explaining her experiences with the paranormal and find out she's had close calls with her life a couple times. Pretty scary stuff. James Marsters, Spike, did burn his hand and screamed in pain during that scene where he wakes up with the sun on him. They kept that in and that's what you saw.
Dakara: (sees funeral scene) You're kidding me... Buffy: So Cordelia's going to be okay? Dakara: ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! WHAT TROLLS! Yep. Joss Whedon. Likes to torture us all. Even for a second or two. Mean, mean, mean. (Lol)
Hahaha another reactor snookered by the ole Cordy fakeout. I love to see it! But in all honesty, this is a fantastic episode, the first of many in season 3
LOL the magic Shop is cursed...everytime it gets a new owner they end up dead...or the shop ends up ruined XD contrary to what you miht think Spike is too depressed to hurt people...he just wants Dru back. part of the reason Dru has left him actually is because he's gone all soft...Dru is very perceptive...crazy...but perceptive.
Spike is bearing his soul to Joyce and you're worried about him hurting her? He didn't even "vamp out" behind her back! Spike: "You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love till it kills you both. You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends. **Love isn't brains, children, it's blood** ...blood screaming inside you to work its will. I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it." Spike is hitting VERY hard this episode. Also, one of the greatest monologues ever given. Oz and Cordy walking in on Xander and Willow...Yup. It hurts. Spike: "...I'll find her, wherever she is, torture her, Until she Likes me again..." I mean, that's pretty on point for the Spike and Dru relationship. The "Cordy Death Troll"...Yup...they went there. I told you before, "Joss is Evil. It is Known." Buffy: "...But I can't fool myself, or Spike for some reason..." That's actually pretty profound coming from Buffy.
This reaction was gold. You are a delight to watch. Glad you kept in Giles' line about being on the hellmouth too long - for some reason it's one of my all time faves. 'Til next time.
12:03 "It's like I don't want to like him, but I can't help it!" ..... Yes! Spike has that affect on all of us! 🥰 Strap in, and enjoy the ride that is Spike!
@@volourn9764 Interesting. I've never known anyone who didn't like Spike. Everyone loves a good villain, and a good villain redemption. Plus he has way more personality than boring "Angel". Angel's character makes me want to gag. But I do understand that everyone has a different opinion as to which characters they like better than others. I'm sorry that Spike's character didn't appeal to you the same way.
I should point out when I say I don't like him, I dint think.hes a bad character. He's mostly well.wrutten (excskt a few times), and of course the actor does a great job. Good entertainment. I'm just not a fan of people ignoring how evil.he is despite the funny and fun he brings. Too much ragging of, say, Xander's flaws but somehow flippantly giving Spile a past. This is doubly so for Willow. Lol
I always believe that Angel visit Cordelia in hospital after Cordelia got injured while she finds out Xander cheating on her with Willow three times. The show over but imagination lives on to create fanfiction.
Pausing the vid to remind you that they almost kissed in 2x01. I'm not saying that to say I like their cheating, I really don't. I think when you sell your soul you keep it during your life, then upon your death it goes to Hell or to whomever you sold it. So I think the mayor has his soul.
I know and feel Cordy has been bad, in every sense of way except evil, she’s done some things that she deserves some small bad things happening to her…but, I feel so bad and sorry for her in this episode. She has a side we don’t see often…she sort of told Buffy about it one time….and with Xander she opened up a bit of that side…and then Xander broke her heart…and she got physically hurt on top of that, so extra bad. I feel so sorry for her.
14:35 - Not only cutting to a random funeral...but one where one of the mourners looks EXACTLY like Buffy from behind...(I mean, did they actually use SMG's stunt double for that scene?
I have been looking forward to your reaction to this one, because I'm pretty sure you're going to be really happy to have Xander and Willow's secret revealed. TTYL! 👋
Happier days, Dak. Which will come again. One thing that occurred to me on repeat viewings concerned Buffy, her mum, Giles and the scoobies all saying 'go away to university and have a great time'. Meanwhile, leaving Faith fighting alone for her life every night. I wonder if Faith ever found out about that?
One of the things the show did very badly was class examination i.e how class effects social mobility etc. One thing is that Willow is presented as a computer science/magical prodigy yet there is no mention of how she is paying for her computer/software/internet connection/magic books and supplies. Yes its pointed out both her parents a pyschologists on tour but she is never presented as being rich the way cordelia or harmony is. Also faith turns up, is younger then the other characters and there is no you need to be in school as per california law etc nothing. Something tv in america does is fail to point out that attending college/university is more determined on your ability to pay for it then academic performance unless its an ivy league college. We won't mention xander's staggeringly obvious and staggeringly amounts of learned helplessness.
Always great reactions Dakara, but the fakeout of Chordy dieing was just golden!! I always look forward to the reactions of people who are watching this show for the 1st time. It was a hoot and a half!!
Spike and his obsession with Dru....I like her, but I find Spike obsession a bit too much as demons are incapable of love....ofc the demon might think the lust and obsession is love, but this episode almost plays like the demon in spike fleshsuit is in love. Just another part that annoyed me, a small bit, but still gets me every time it is brought up lol like the episode anyway because "it" was finally out in the open
The summer before this season came out, there was a poll about the death of Mrs Calendar, they asked which Scooby would you have rather died instead. Cordy won the poll by a lot, some of even wrote essays on why she should be the one (not being missed was one of the top choices, being in the way of Willow and Xander was the other), we never took Cordy for granted again, nor rooted for them to get together.... This is why people warn you about saying things out loud, you want to happen.
Spike and Joyce... the most hilariously weird yet awesome relationship on the show. I love them. 😄
"Well, [Druscilla] sounds very unreasonable."
Lol. Supportive mom Joyce, even with Spike. ❤
5:09 - Suzanne Krull, the actress who played the magic shop clerk, also played a psychic on a few episodes of the show "Lost" - I guess she has a "psychic, magic shop clerk" type face?
Yeah Joss Whedon and the writers love trolling the fans, i swear I bet this was their face writing the fake Cordelia death scene 😂😁😁😁
Being trolled by that funeral scene is a right of passage with this show.

a little too good as Willow said in "When she was Bad"
Spike is top tier chaos master in this episode, the funeral scene got us all back in the day
That has to be the single best reaction to the fake-out I've ever seen. Brilliant!
I was fuming 😂 thanks for watching Mark
Did you ever imagine, season 1 episode 1, that you would ever feel that way and cry over Cordelia?
Nope! Cordy has become such a fav 🤍
Spike isn’t just a vampire, he’s almost an energy vampire. He comes into town miserable and without direction, and his actions (on purpose or inadvertently) cause everyone involved to be miserable as he leaves, cheery and revitalized

Spike is strangely wise in an insane and anarchy kinda way. He has some of the best lines.
there is a strange relationship between Joyce and Spike. they are great together on screen.

I'm not sure Spike would ever hurt Joyce as he respects her.
Spike is a great character. I like him much more, than Angel. And you can learn a lot from his speeches.
Oh they got you, Dakara! LMAO oh that entertained me, you made my day lol
The woman in the shop had to buried sometime 😅
True 🥲
Yes, welcome to the Buffyverse, where they love to make us suffer!

The best is that they intentionally put 3 blonde women in the front of the funeral. So your brain immediately thinks that Buffy is there

Hi dakara I recently finished s03 n I'm on angel s01

Legend has it that Charisma Carpenter had previously sustained a similar injury IRL and got a scar from it.
Spike and his obsession with Dru....I like her, but I find Spike obsession a bit too much as demons are incapable of love....ofc the demon might think the lust and obsession is love, but this episode almost plays like the demon in spike fleshsuit is in love. Just another part that annoyed me, a small bit, but still gets me every time it is brought up lol
like the episode anyway because "it" was finally out in the open
Perhaps not all demons are alike and there are nuances. Dru did say something along the lines that vampires are capable of love.
But thats not true. There was the couple from Angel s01 also.
The summer before this season came out, there was a poll about the death of Mrs Calendar, they asked which Scooby would you have rather died instead.
Cordy won the poll by a lot, some of even wrote essays on why she should be the one (not being missed was one of the top choices, being in the way of Willow and Xander was the other), we never took Cordy for granted again, nor rooted for them to get together....
