Buffy the Vampire Slayer 2x3 & 2x4 REACTION | Spike takes over and Mummy Princesses!

[@josephdavis9234]

"That's what Angel needs, an accent." No.

[@gungho1284]

[@Alice-go2nc]

Omg lol😅

[@charlieb5358]

Omg I can’t wait lol

[@KitsuneRokaku]

Yeah, an *Irish* accent 😜

[@RLucas3000]

With one word, you won the internet for today.

[@Kris-wp3fm]

"They are giving so many great lines to Spike." This man does not yet know the magnitude of the truth he is speaking.

[@laotasurfs1110]

"Am I attracted to Seth Green?" It might just be the character. As Oz, Green carries himself VERY differently.

[@MrLorenzovanmatterho]

Believe me boys, you don't want Angel's accent vibrating anywhere!

[@KitsuneRokaku]

The Era of Stupid Sexy Spike... Begins (With the arrival of bestest boy Oz ❤)

[@SummerSolstice621]

Not the bestest boy 😭😂😂😂

[@moonlessnight14]

Fun fact about Spike's accent: it's actually based on Anthony Head's (Giles) natural accent while Anthony puts on a more posh accent for Giles. And Spike was originally supposed to be Creole with a Louisiana bayou-based accent 😁

[@afry6400]

James (Spike) tells a funny story about how Anthony pulls him aside and tells him if he's going to do the accent then Anthony was going to help him do it right. They worked together on it pretty hard.

[@davidgorman994]

This is when Season 2 really begins. Dru and Spike are such fun characters (and a great couple)

[@spamfilter32]

Good catch on Drusilla leading Spike. You are the first reactors that I have watched who caught that. Pay attention and you will see that indeed she is leading Spike, not the other way around.

[@rayalexander3734]

Yes! There was a pecking order Darla was 1 and Spike was 4.

[@killianlpc]

One of the most iconic scenes in the whole show when Spike ( one of the greatest characters in The Buffyverse ) rolls into town and drives right over the Sunnydale sign. School Hard is one of the greatest episodes of S2. James Marsters was so impressive in the role, he became an instant fan favourite. Some great writing in this episode, when Xander goes to get Buffy's bag and pulls out a yoyo, tampon and then stake, this shows Buffy from child, to teenager, to adolescent showing how she is growing up. Great too when Joyce clobbers Spike on the head with the axe. All in all a great episode for early S2 with Angel/Spike/Drusilla who have a shared history through the centuries to add to the arc of the Season.

[@yazminasporrong8880]

Welcome to the Spike fan club!

[@spamfilter32]

Yes, the Vampire at the Bronze was the same one who claimed to be at the crucifixion. Spike was killing 2 birds with 1 stone. 1) he was learning about how Buffy fights, so that he can find her weakness. 2) He was getting rid of a competitor for leader of the Vamp Gang.

[@gacchan]

Spike will 100% do anything for Dru, well spotted. Can't wait for more.

[@maidden]

It's ok not to catch every last little detail of information and lore that gets snuck into episodes, they can be pretty sneaky about it sometimes. There's plenty of stuff I'm sure most die-hard Buffy fans never caught until their second, or third, or fourth re-watch of the series.

[@theresakluthe5492]

They had intended to have the anointed be a bigger character, but they failed to consider how quickly kids age.

[@randyinvancouver]

Cordelia’s line about Buffy’s mom knowing how to moisturize is funny if you know that Kristine Sutherland was in a memorable Olay ad in the ‘80’s.

[@LadyGreensleeves33]

'Sir you can't do that' - Yes, yes he can. He can do whatever he wants 😂

[@blackpinkinyourarea4455]

9:50 "and suddenly I'm on my knees." I feel seen. 😂😂😂

[@gungho1284]

Dru looks scary in vamp face because they gave her more of a snake-like appearance.

[@MrsBramletJr]

Your reactions to Buffy are perfection! Fun fact, Seth Green and Alyson Hannigan were not only child actors, they played teenage love interests in the 1988 movie, "My Stepmother Is an Alien". They were both 14 and are just over 6 weeks apart in age with Seth being the older one.

[@trinitybernhardt9944]

I forget sometimes how much of a scene stealer Spike is from minute one. Love Oz's intro too. The way that he looks at Willow. So jealous!

[@gghost9421]

I just want to say again how much I'm loving these reactions to buffy and charmed, struggling mentally at the moment and these reactions are my favourite part of the week so thank you 🖤

[@oldbroadwithbaggage5472]

You need to also remember who Snyder was talking to. The Cheif of Police! You two have always asked about why the police are never involved with the evil things in this town. Now we know. - Drusilla is one of my favorite vamps. I can't wait for you two to learn her story. She's an interesting ride in the Buffyverse.

[@Shadowman4710]

Well I think Bob was the Chief of Detectives but otherwise true....

[@happyslapsgiving5421]

I was about to bitch about how you missed Snyder's conversation with the Police chief. 😅 And then the TARDIS appeared.

[@LordVolkov]

Spike is easily the best recurring villain in the early seasons and his development is wild.

[@wytchybytchy]

✨Spike and Dru✨ are heeereeeee FINALLY!!!!

[@RobinTimDrake]

This marks the first appearance of Jonathan, the victim character. You'll figure out who he is as the show continues. Alyson & Seth were friends and had starred together in 'My Stepmother is an Alien'.

[@johncampbell756]

James Marsters is from Modesto, CA and Juliet Landau is from Los Angeles. Tony Head helped James with his accent. The Annoying One had to die. Children age too quickly for non-aging vampires. Ep 4 We were told Willow woukd ne wearing a hot outfit. Seth learned some basic guitar. The actual band they are miming to is Four Star Mary whom I became friends with after I moved here. Debon, the singer later wrote the movie American Sniper. Jonathan, who almost got kissed at the dance is Danny Strong who was actually in thr unaired pilot which had a different Willow. He went on to become a writer and director. He co-wrote the two Mockingjay Hunger Games films and wrote Lee Daniels' The Butler. He and Lee co-created the show Empire.

[@icanpreptoo6673]

Charisma Carpenter is a real life survivor. She told her story on an episode of Surviving Evil.

[@WillowTreePark]

Yay, so glad you guys liked Spike! He's such a charismatic villain!...and easy on the eyes.

[@xoxoxANGExoxox]

Look at Spike and repeat after me "You are the Big Bad"

[@Shadowman4710]

Welcome to the actual Season two. "And here we go...."-The Joker, "The Dark Knight" "That man is nearly 40 years old!" That's okay. Sheila is at least 25.

[@spamfilter32]

Willow: "Cordelia, have some lemonade." "Ask for aspirin." Cordy: "And aspirin Hey!" Willow gett'n her Cordy diss-on this episodes.

[@xDezxdisasterx]

Finally my baby spike 😍 and adore dru plus no wouldn't hit the same if it were charisma and not Sarah lol

[@zionow3844]

Spike and Drusilla are iconic! Both of them are incredible in their own way

[@blueamaranth9419]

On the note of didn't they take attendance to figure out Rodney was gone, no. For some bizarre reason in the 1990s, teachers just assumed this crap by claiming we were all mature enough to make it back to the bus on time if we were over age 13 and taking attendance was "coddling." This led to me being left behind in a foreign country because I got sick at a restaurant and was in the bathroom when the class left.

[@elphiegreen]

My friend is a bassist, he says Seth Green does not know how to play lmfao

LOVE Spike and Dru, also OZ!!

[@grkpektis]

This show has so many great villain lines "I'll chop her to messes"

I've been waiting on pins and needles for you guys to get to School Hard and you both didn't disappoint on your curiousity of Drusilla and you lust for Spike. Same but I both lust and love both.💜

Okay heavy metal entrance, I see you Spike. It’s giving fan fiction w/ him & Dru a bit 🙃 “Gang on PCP” had me💀The plot thickens! Seth Green! Let Willow be happy! 😭 Loving the reactions as usual 🖤

[@orangelanternnunley1720]

I have been waiting since y'all first started watching the series for the moment when you got to the first of appearance of The Big Bad, Spike. He is one of the absolute greatest characters in the Buffy Universe. Yes I love Spike. 😅

[@wantstolive]

No worries, Sergio, I haven't been able to control myself because of Spike since the show first aired. 😂

[@migmit]

Pretty sure that when Spike called Angel his Yoda, he didn't mean that Angel used to be a tiny green goblin who never learned proper English. He was being metaphoric.

[@Rachel-xu4br]

They killed the Annoying One (yes, that's his nickname in the Buffyverse) due to the fact that Joss Whedon one day basically was like, "wait, this is a kid, how are we going to continue this storyline with an immortal kid that never ages when real children age?" And so he was killed off. I honestly never understood why this kid was so powerful in the first place, or where the story would go. Master did most of the work and lines in S1. Aside from sitting down and having a line here, or there, all he really did to help was lead Buffy down to where the Master was. He never was shown his "power", or anything really, so I never understood where they were going with him anyway. And in rewatches I can't take him even more seriously due to how easily Spike was able to kill him. I mean, you're telling me all someone had to do was go rogue and just throw him over their shoulder like an actual child and could easily overpower him this entire time?

[@shinythingster]

It's SO interesting that you clocked the vibe with Drusilla being the one leading Spike RIGHT AWAY! It takes some people a looong time to figure it out 😆 If you're already this interested, just wait, you're gonna LOVE the ride!

[@spamfilter32]

Remember that tan sports coat that Angel was wearing in Ep. 2 when he was jealous of Xander, Well Xander is wearing a button down shirt with that same color at the end of this episode (e4). Angel wasn't too far off in his Xander impersonation.

[@ChristaBlack-gn8ys]

Spikes here!!!🎉

[@crusinboi]

Seth Green is in the 2nd episode of The X-Files. Now that’s a young Seth Green!!

[@joshfacio9379]

both willow and oz appear as young lovers in my stepmother is a alien!

[@ulrichs3061]

And even younger in "My Stepmother is an Alien" in wich he dated a young girl played by Alyson Hannigan.

[@calandraantonelli8939]

I also wouldn’t mind a special intro with just y’all turning in your seats to face the camera. Bring it ON. ❤❤❤❤

[@killianlpc]

Oz definitely the coolest character in The Buffyverse. Nobody does laid back like Oz, his witty one liners and observations are brilliant throughout the whole show. When he says 'you're only interested in a girl who can walk or talk' reply 'she doesn't have to talk', the look on OZ's face. Inca Mummy Girl one of the weaker episodes of S2 Xander showing his complete innocence and gullibility. We all feel for Willow who at this stage in the show is so meek and quiet, always feeling looked over. We all seem to forget what an awful bully and generally horrible vacuous person Cordelia was, totally putting down Willow at every opportunity throughout the early parts of the show, we see that again here. The metaphor of the show saying basically looks aren't everything, and be careful as things are never what they seem. Jonathan gets a lucky escape here along with Xander also. Xander comes through at the end and saves Willow's life. Great foreshadowing again here with Xander and his 'taste in women'.

[@sparicozwilliams5702]

This episode is actually a reference to" die hard" "school hard" 😅

[@Jessica_Roth]

BUFFY'S MOM: Praises Buffy for thinking of others in a crisis. ACTUAL BUFFY: Leaves her "best friend" locked in a closet with Cordelia overnight. XANDER: Says he's not leaving until Buffy and Willow are safe. ALSO XANDER: Completely forgets about Willow, too. GILES: Promises Buffy that he'll keep Buffy's mom safe. ALSO GILES: Completely loses track of Joyce and walks off with Jenny, unconcerned. ANGEL: Spends the episode telling everybody what an unremitting badass Spike is. ALSO ANGEL: Forgets to check in with his girlfriend to see whether Spike has slain another Slayer. JENNY: As a teacher is *legally responsible* for the safety of her students at school events. ALSO JENNY: Wanders off into the night without trying to find any of her students. SPIKE: Is supposedly the most relentless badass vampire around. ALSO SPIKE: Gets bonked on the head *once* by Joyce and runs away. Some tough guy *you* are. I really hate this episode, especially the ending. They try to marry the "Spike is so tough!" hype to "Wow, Joyce is a total badass!" when they don't go together (and they're clearly full of shit about Joyce). Way to undercut your new villain. And since Willow is my Favorite Fictional Character EVER and her and Buffy's friendship is REALLY dear to my heart (check out my avatar

[@Jessica_Roth]

2.03-Xander completely forgets Willow exists, leaving her locked in closet all night long (when, for all he knows, there might still be vampires lurking around the school.) 2.04-Xander is willing to *die* to save Willow. Well, you can't say he doesn't try to atone for his fuck-ups, I guess.

[@arc7375]

Angel is Spike’s Grandfather, and Drusilla’s Father. In turn, The Master is Angel’s Grandfather, which makes him Spike’s Great, Great Grandfather. They come from a powerful lineage.

[@calandraantonelli8939]

Ahhh Spike remember this character. He is definitely at the top of my favorite character especially as the season progresses.

[@Itsjandz105]

Episode 3 is so iconic with the introduction of Spike and Drusilla. I always liked episode 4 too. It’s interesting how the mummy has the same feelings as Buffy about being chosen and sacrificing herself for the good of others. Plus, we get to meet Oz!

[@gothchickbaby]

i love drusilla and i cant wait for yall to get her back story

[@mango970]

When I tell you my spoon CLANGED in my bowl at Sergio’s vibrating line😂

[@invadertifxiii]

it also shows the truth that law enforcement knows the truth about the hellmouth

[@Buffy8Fan]

2x03 The second turning point of the show. _Prophecy Girl_ being the first. 2x04 I think they tried too hard to bridge a gap between identifying The Mummy and Buffy's calling. It didn't work for me the way the episode wanted it to.

[@ivw685]

And it’s not only Schneider who knows something…the cop knows too! A higher level government conspiracy? It’s been so long since I’ve seen this show, and I’m excited to rediscover things again.

New fave Buffy reaction channel. I have decided.

[@feudist]

"Willow must be protected at all costs"...or else. I wonder how Buffy disposed of Umpada's body in her room?

[@AustinSamson1999]

Spike is simultaneously one of the funniest and most enjoyable characters in this franchise while also managing to be one of the most frustrating and biggest jerks 😭🙌 don’t get me wrong I wouldn’t change a thing to do with spike but BOY the way this character can be triggering pretty consistently GETS ME HEATED 🤣

[@Buckaroo_Baldwin]

The word Sire also means mentor/teacher. Remember that.

[@BurlyBricks]

School hard is my favourite episode

[@toxikelement1372]

Angel did not make Spike. You will find out later in the series who did. Usually "sire" is used as "father" but it has a second contextual meaning, "mentor".

[@morganwilliams5541]

That was one hot mummy. I always feel bad about how she and Xander didn't have a chance as I saw so much chemistry between them, and they look so cute together.

[@GeorgeAlexander3110]

Spike ❤❤❤❤❤

[@ashleym780]

Seth Green as Oz is so attractive 😂

[@caitlin329]

"A little less ritual and a little more fun" is a statement from the writers more than anything else lol Lets you know the thought process going into season 2.

[@marcosmoke3385]

Omg yes daddy is home, i love spike

[@serinas4465]

Well I feel everything you feel for Spike every time ❤ But for the way Oz looks at Willow and how you don't see your partner look at you that way? Usually when someone is looking that way at someone else, it's when they know the looked at person isn't noticing. I look sometimes at my husband like that. But I don't think he often noticed because it's when he is doing something he loves and thus is occupied. Or it is when he is interacting with animals 😍

[@alli_connect]

I'm being very wishful, but i hope they do a watch along for Angel. Buffy is campy and fun, but the Angel series is where you get to see real character development, revealing back stories and heartbreaking journeys in this universe.

[@arc7375]

The main cast on Buffy are children growing up and overcoming challenges in their adolescence. The main cast on Angel are adults learning to live with the decisions they’ve made, and to redeem themselves for the choices they’ve made.

[@mygeilablack3100]

Guys just fun fact. If somebody allready didnt tell you. Actor who plays principal is famous for role in Star Trek: Deep space 9. Google name Quark in that show. You wouldnt recognize him :D

[@ThiagoDragon]

Spike is one of those rare cases when a character is beloved from the very beginning. And Dru is very scary indeed. The mummy episode certainly isn’t the best, but I can find some good moments in it. It's okay.

[@Square-ow7oq]

I think Willow, and Buffy were beleoved from the very beginning. I like spike but someties spike groupies say weird things.

[@ThiagoDragon]

@@Square-ow7oq I agree. I love Buffy and Willow, what I meant is that Spike was beloved even when he was just an episode villain. At that point nobody knew Spike would become such an important character. Some Spike solo fans are difficult to deal with, I agree lol.

SO hype that y'all have finally got to Spike and Drusilla!

[@YNergy]

Oh I have been waiting for you to meet Spike! You did NOT disappoint!

[@josephdavis9234]

And so my second favorite character makes his debut.

[@spamfilter32]

"Willow must be protected. At all costs." Truer words.

[@arc7375]

Until she starts becoming a nasty, abusive person. Then everyone _around_ her needs to be protected.

[@arc7375]

Drusilla, as you probably know now, wasn’t a slayer. She was a _Saint._ Or at least, she would have become a Saint, had Angel not turned her. She was a pure, righteous and holy woman, with visions from the Powers That Be - something gifted to champions in the fight against evil. So it’s extra twisted that Angel made someone who was literally a Saint, chosen by the powers of Good into a vampire.

[@Frogface91]

Drusilla is fantastic, I always wanted to see more of her.

[@williambowman1660]

Great fun and thank you for the reactions Just to make sure, School Hard is a play on Die Hard with the hostages, the incompetent police, and Buffy crawling around in the ceiling and air ducts like the movie. Fantastic watching with you and having the great time the both of you are sharing . You also learned a lesson in Buffy storytelling An episode is often not over until the credits roll and critical dialogue can appear in scenes that other shows is as filler or what appears unimportant. Be prepared on your edits to discover something missed Your challenges deal with verbally reacting while we just watched in silence when we first saw Buffy. Don’t beat yourself up The Buffy writers wanted to challenge all expectations of a show. The conversation between Snyder would have no meaning in 98% of shows but not Buffy Just quickly add “ what story to use “ and so much changes That’s BTVS Keep up the great work

[@spamfilter32]

Willow, upon learning that Ampata is the mummy, "Good," with a smile.
