      I don't cry over anything, and Buffy has had my eyes get watery a few times. I don't see how anyone that gets invested in the characters doesn't ever at least feel that sad feeling in their chest. I don't watch any reactions of people who don't get emotional. It's no fun if they don't.

    I love the callback to the season 4 (I think) episode where Spike explains how he killed 2 previous slayers and says, "every slayer has a death wish, even you. The day you wish for death, i will be there." He said that to taunt buffy, but here he is when buffy is wishing for death to convince her to live.

    And Willow didn't just perform the spell, she was the one who really pushed for them to bring Buffy back even though she was aware of how dangerous it could be. Also, after Buffy reveals she was in heaven, Tara is standing next to Willow, touching her shoulder, comforting her. But you can clearly see the physical distance between them; it's nothing like when they were comforting each other in The Gift.

    FYI: Anthony Head, Amber Benson, and James Marsters all have a background in singing, which is why they have the best sung songs, as well as the more complicated ones. Also Michelle Trachtenberg was a ballerina, which is why she got the lovely ballet number. Alyson Hannigan isn't fond of her voice, which is why she got the smallest part. I also noticed almost (if not all) of her solo lines are comedic, so the quality wasn't a big deal since either way they would at least get a laugh.

    Glad you were 'unspoilt' going into this episode, makes the reaction all the better. Josh Wheddon had wanted to do a musical episode and finally decided to write one after he held a Shakespeare reading at his house with a number of the cast, during which several cast members sang and the rest is history. He learnt how to write music so that he could compose all the songs himself.
    Sweet, the musical Demon, was played by multi Tony award winner Hinton Battle with cameos by David Fury, as the Mustard Man, and Marti Noxon, as Parking Ticket Lady, who were both executive producers on the show.

    Obviously not the first television musical, but the first great one. It definitely sparked a wave of similarly ambitious projects across television in the early 2000's. Personally, I've never seen it topped, but I'm sure there are other great ones out there. The most impressive part, other than the music, choreography, etc. was that the song are SO important. This isn't just a musical for it's own sake. These characters are going through things so crazy the only way to open up about them is to sing it to the rafters. I love this episode so much.

  • @partycitydumpster

    There's such a high demand for funeral services in Sunnydale that they're booked 'round the clock. At least, that's the headcanon for why there's a funeral at night in Spike's song.
    I mean the slogan for the Sunndale Funeral Home is "we'll take care of the rest!" I have a feeling you could get a pretty good discount on funeral services by agreeing to have it at night. You just might get interrupted by singing vampires.

    18:12 You're not the only one moved to tears during that scene 😢 Buffy just made a big reveal to all her friends that she was 'pulled out from heaven'. I also love how it flows lyrically "I live in hell 'cause I've been expelled from heaven" It's so beautiful. And yeah, it's so touching that Buffy finally got to confess her true feelings knowing how much it hurts to keep it all in. This whole time, she confided in Spike and made sure he didn't tell them "they can never know" (6x3) and because he kept that to himself, I like to think that he was rewarded with a kiss in the end there.

    So many of the characters' secrets are brought to light in this episode...it got me thinking, as a writer would it be easier to write some of those scene as conventional drama or is it easier to put those feelings and emotions in songs? Songs act as a sort of direct path for the characters to express their deepest feelings to the audience (and to each other?). So, it makes sense that all of their secrets would need a musical episode to be revealed. Almost 20 years after it first aired, 'Once More, With Feeling' remains one of my very favorite episodes of television.

    • @RitsychServare
      @RitsychServare 3 роки тому +3

      The last Buffy reactor to react to this episode gave a very good analysis on his take with this episode as a musical because it actually works well as such unlike other musicals which he criticized the movie "La la land" for. That movie, in his opinion, was better off as a non musical because it tends to tell more than show or something. This episode works as a musical primarily as you described "as a sort of direct path for the characters to express their deepest feelings to the audience (and to each other)" with the use of a spell. When you think about it, they could've done an episode where everyone is forced to speak their mind but I'm not sure how much of an impact they'd make with these revelations. Buffy needed to confess these to her friends, as a means of release, and what's gonna take her to do that? She confided in one person, Spike, which she made sure that he kept as a secret. The dancing demon made them break their composure and let them spill the beans. It's more poignant through music, I'd say.

      I like that, but the point of us knowing is to 1. explain her depression, and 2. showing that she’s still more worried about their feelings than her own. When she reveals it here, it’s not because she wants to, but because the demon forced her to. That’s what we’re supposed to feel. If it was just revealed to us, we might think Buffy was waiting for the right time to tell them or something. But I get it - it would’ve been impactful in a different way! 😊

    In America (and I think canada) we have junior high (which can also have freshmen) which comes between elementary school and high school. We has pre-school
    that can start anywhere as young as 18 months to 4 years old. Then kindergarten which is between 5 and 6. Elementary school goes from 1st which we start around 6/7 depending on how early or late in the year your birthday is (some start off as 6 and turn 7 during the school year and others are 7 and turn 8 during the school year. Well unless your birthday is just right during the summer that you turn just before a year starts and again during the two/three month summer break) to 5th or 6th grade (depending in the school depends on if they count 6th grade as part of Elementary or not. Some schools it is the last year of elementary school others it is the first year of junior high school and others it is its own thing not part of either) at this point kids are around 11 (again depending on when their birth date is in the year). Then you have two to three years (depending on if the school count 6th grade as oart of it or not. You have maybe 6th grade then 7th and 8th grade) of junior high school. By the time you are done with that you are 14 or 15 and start high school. Junior high has freshmen, sophomores? It may be junior instead and seniors (I am not sure what they have when they dont include 6th grade. I think it is only freshmen and seniors). Then 9th grade (the first of high-school) you are a freshman again and age is again youngest 14 about to be 15 within the first few weeks of school
    to 15. Then 10th grade/15 about to because 16 very soon to 16 years old is sophomore, the 11th grade or 16 about to be 17 soon to 17 years old. Is junior and then 12th grade/ 17 about to be 18 soon to 18 or maybe even 19 near the very end of the school year years old is seniors.

    In the USA you become a freshman at 14 aka grade 9. We spend 13 years in school from five in Kindergarten to 18 in 12 th grade. You can start younger depending on the state and birthday. But 14 is the normal age. 7th grade is still middle school.

    "Is this a musical episode?" Actually, it's just the typical filler episode where they sing songs like it's perfectly normal. 😂 No really, it's definitely shocking to see our characters just start singing... like it's so... out there. Especially with Buffy. Giles, we've already heard in season 4. Tara and Spike's solos were great. The best one is Tara and Giles' duet. 🤩 But then, I love how in the end, they discovered it was Xander who did it... of all people. 🤔 I mean, it could be Dawn... right? Did anybody find it believable for Xander to summon a dancing demon? lol Also, I love how the answer to all of this started with Giles' theory but then brushes it off quickly 'cause 'something isn't right there.' And I'm just thinking: 'Really, Giles? You live in a Hellmouth! Lots of things aren't 'RIGHT there'. 😆Best episode in this season so far. Maybe even the best in the series. 👍

    One of the best episode, it was really amazing that time and Buffy started the musical episode trend that time. After that most of the tv series did this. Anthony Stewart Head ( Giles), James Marsters( Spike) were really singers and they have songs. Their voices are wonderful. And I'm happy of your enjoyment and laughs. All the songs words meaning so much and fit the stiations perfectly. Theyy relly did a good job. Buffy's song always get me that scenes were masterpiece and how she tell evry secrets she hold. Than Spike rescue Buffy from burning and his words about life was so amazing and strong. Everything is strong in this episode. Buffy- Spike last scene was worth to watch. I was waiting it so long and I was shipping them. Finally we got it. I don't know what you think about Spufyy (Spike/Buffy). Now Tara know Willow spelled her. I'm happy for you , you enjoyed and loved this episode

    I know I'm late to this reaction but. A fun fact. The "Heaven" and "Living" lines sound like they're sung badly, but they're NOT. Whedon used something in music and singing theatre known as a 'Discordant Note'. This is where the order of the note is purposelyt shifted to create the audio equivilent of the 'uncanny valley'. It's supposed to feel broken and 'not right'. This is in contrasting to her emotions and the word. Heaven is a place of joy, but her memory of it has been sullied by the tragedy of being pulled out, so it has become a sad memory. A sad memory of joy. She remembers life being full of joy and fire, but now its cold, so 'living' is also discorded for the same reason. Also, it's spike that says living, he's dead, so living is broken for him.
    Multiple small things that whedon did make this a masterful episode. Shame the directors a twat, but damn he has skill.
