Buffy The Vampire Slayer S03E21 - Graduation Day Part 1 (Scene 1)

Love Angel's entrance

[@williambunter3311]

Actually Mistress Roach, that wasn't Angel. It was a stunt double doing a high-risk stumble.

[@windowsVD]

Apparently that may not have been scripted. Joss said in interview that David was very prone to tripping and slipping on stuff, and hinted that they ended up including one of his bloopers into the show.

Poor Angel, he does feel bad leaving but he had to

[@nylapoonsingh453]

Lol

[@Kentrc11]

He didn't have to leave. Series could have ended with him staying.

@@jrewing1512 fair enough. The Angel series was pretty much Buffy EU.

[@Kentrc11]

Are you mad at me for being around too much or for not being around enough? Duh! I don't get you Me: That means both. Buffy wants you to leave, because she'd rather just remember you instead.

[@LyricalXilence]

Was that planned or did David just fall and they improvised?

[@windowsVD]

Might have been improvised. Joss said in interview that David was the slipperiest man that he had ever met, and was very prone to tripping over and slipping on stuff. He hinted that they ended up including one of his bloopers into the show.

[@Shh.ItsAllOkay.]

I've heard it's in the script. Not sure if that's true, but it does look like his weight is on the other foot and the timing seems off for an actual slip. But I could be wrong.

no reason for her to be harsh tho

She struggling with the break up

[@jrewing1512]

It was a hard scene to watch.

[@tiffanycortapasso2729]

This is when i really lost my whole interest in the show Buffy without Angel just didn’t work Sarah should have just hung up her steaks at the end of this season

[@Marvel_vs_Capcom84]

Umm no , That wouldn't have been good if Buffy ended in season 3 , The show was still good after Angle left , I wish he stayed on the show but him and Cordelia leaving gave us a great spinoff and Buffy continued to be a great show specifically in season 5,6,7

[@cmm5542]

I agree. I only kept watching for Spike afterward. I hated Season 4 except when he was there. I liked Buffy herself again towards the end of Season 5, though she was never my favourite character. But Seasons 6-7 were awful character development for her. Even SMG herself felt Season 6 Buffy was against the ethos of the character. The show was supposed to be about the trials - and failures - of growing up. Buffy's brattiness, like in this scene, was sympathetic and a little humorous as a still-maturing teen; once she was an actual adult I found it insupportable. I loved Oz's final line on Season 3 about them surviving high school. That was what the show was about. It should have ended there, and then had an 'adult' spin-off or two, or possibly a 'next-generation' Slayer situation. Buffy was technically not the official Slayer once Faith was called; she could legitimately have retired and gone on to live a normal life. Faith wasn't in a place to fulfill her role right then. It could have been really cool to have a young Potential sent to the Hellmouth to work with limited powers under the gang's supervision while waiting for Faith to serve out her time. There could have been some neat angsty story arcs about the 'Slayer fill-in' resenting that adult Buffy still has stronger powers despite having left the job, good lessons about dealing with a job that goes BEYOND your powers, which is a real-life situation we never got to see on Buffy. She was always more powerful than her opponents - except Glory, which was why I liked Season 5. I would have liked to see more of that kind of 'struggle-against-odds' superhero situation rather than the continued teenage 'Of course I can do this, I just don't want to. It's emotionally but not actively traumatizing.' I prefer adult heroes who leave their emotional trauma out of their job and deal with the insecurities of whether they can even DO the job/make a difference rather than bringing personal life baggage in like kids do. But that's just me. Sorry to have gone on so ridiculously long!

[@Marvel_vs_Capcom84]

@@cmm5542 you agree that the show should have ended in season 3? Come on man , Angel was great but imagine having Angel around for the entire 7 seasons it probably would have gotten stale after awhile or maybe it wouldn't we really don't know , But at least we got a great spinoff , I hated season 4 as well , I think one of the reasons season 4 wasn't so great is because joss whedon wasn't the main script writer because he was working over in Angel , But seasons 5,6,7 were all pretty solid in my opinion, It would have been a shame if Buffy ended in season 3 ..

[@EclipseMints08]

@@cmm5542 Hard disagree. Life lessons don't stop at high school. College and entering adult life for the first time is a big part of growing up. That's what season 4-7 took up. Angel the series was about already being an adult and working and managing your way in life.

[@cmm5542]

@@EclipseMints08 Yes, but there was very little 'growing up' in Seasons 4-7. Once you're an adult, you have to start taking responsibility for your decisions and mistakes. Buffy's immaturity and unwillingness to ever acknowledge she was wrong was funny as a teen; as a full-grown adult who had had more than enough 'life experiences' to mature very quickly, her childish attitude about the adult world she had lived in for years stopped making sense. Especially when she matured finally in Season Five, which as I said I enjoyed, and then completely regressed in Seasons Six and Seven. There's no point to 'life lessons' if they're not learned, and Buffy never really did grow up. Some of the others did a bit, but really not what would be expected. I have worked with young carers and seen the level of maturity developed by eleven-year-olds forced into helping others in adult ways at 'too young' an age like Buffy. They mature and learn life lessons far more rapidly than the rest of us who have no serious problems to deal with. Buffy DID, so her maturity level should have been much higher by the end of the series. I get that seeing her and the others struggle with maturity issues was part of the drama and humour of the series, but I found it illogical. My education was in philosophy. I do agree with you that Angel was very clearly about being an adult and working in the real world. But that show didn't focus on maturing so much as on real-life working collaborations for adults, which was quite well done.
