Hey guys, Though I normally had to post this after posting the first 3 episodes of season Angel '' according to slayalive guide''. A lot of people kept asking about Buffy so here we go. Ps: Since I wanted to post Bargaining 1 and 2 in one video for you. I had to do some heavy editing cause KZbin kept blocking the video. Anyway We're finally staring season 6 so hope you enjoy. BTVS 6x22 and Angel 3x22 are now up on Patreon. For full reactions + more: www.patreon.com/SoFieReacts

Dear SofieReacts this is not your usual spoiler my dear but the Giles character had a series during this season of Buffy in England because Anthony Stewart Head's performance in Buffy made it possible to have a series dedicated to Childs in his homes country of England. I believe the reason he left was to spend more time with his family. Thank you for all the reaction videos you do. Thank you for being you. With respect always, Brant Heavner 😁❤️👋

That last image, Buffy's face, reminds me so much of the last image of the movie "Empire of the Sun" (1987). The boy protagonist, having lived through so much, is finally reunited with his parents, their arms around him. It looks like a happy ending, but when you look at his face, all you can see is the irreparable trauma he's lived through.

You’d think how powerful Willow is and her ability to talk to an embodiment of the master of the dead, she could’ve just asked if Buffy was suffering in a hell dimension - then happily leave Buffy alone when told she’s in heaven. Much like Giles could have prevented Faith from ever going evil by simply making a phone call to the watcher’s council to confirm Gwendolyn post was really her watcher, all of the problems in the series could have been prevented if people just took a minute and did the most basic of logical thinking.

IMO, a crux of this episode is a lack of faith on Willows part. For someone who invokes gods, she has zero confidence that a higher power might reward Buffys heroism. Her fear of Buffy being in Hell is based in pessimism. Also, Buffybot is a beautiful tragic character. So loveable and yet no one cares for her. 😥

in fairness, the forces of evil are much more "hands on". if there is anything "good" out there, it seems to be pretty detached, if not completely disinterested. buffy and crew have seen a lot of demons up to this point in the show, but they've never seen an angel.

​@sirmoonslosthismind Yeah, but on "Angel" there's Powers That Be so there is proof that there is also good aswell. Anya has talked about dimensions how if you have the one there has to be another to balance each other out. Like her example of Shrimp if there's one dimension without it then there would also have to be one that is only of shrimp. So if there are multiple Hell dimensions there would also be multiple Heaven dimensions. It all has to stay balanced Yin and Yang.

I do love how Willow was dressed so angelic, and in a pretty Spring picnic setting before the deer sacrifice. Misdirection at its best. I think everybody expected the Resurrection spell to bring Buffy back in fron t of them, and maybe that's how the spell might've worked if the biker hadn't interrupted it. Buffy seeing the Buffybot ripped apart was quite an intense moment considering the trauma she was going through post resurrection. As Giles was training Buffy on a Hellmouth, he was dealing with a lot more supernatural crap than most Watcheer's normally would.

You’re saying that because the Biker’s interrupted the spell the delayed reaction meant that Buffy would come to life in her coffin and not just magically appear out of thin air? That was some really dark magic. I very much doubt Osiris would care where or when Buffy “woke up”. 😂 Huge oversight with the Scoobies. You’re dealing with really dark and complicated supernatural shit here… you should consider the aftermath of it even if you don’t think you’ll be successful with doing it. I’m sorry but the more and more times I watch the season, I am convinced even more so that the Scoobies don’t actually give a shit. Or at least Willow doesn’t because if she did, she would think to consider the potential risks and consequences of the dark magic she’s meddling with. She’s not dumb. She’s just careless. And she wants to prove she can do it.

This was the only way. If they just brought Buffy back with no consequences, it would undermine Buffy's sacrifice. It makes it easier to appreciate her returning from the dead, because that is a journey, a challenge, and not a magic undo button. Revisiting season 5 wouldn't feel just as tragic and beautiful if we knew her death was only a minor setback. Also, welcome to UPN, where Willow and Tara can kiss on screen without a war being waged with the network.

I have been eagerly awaiting your arrival at Season 6. One of the greatest things about this whole show is the way the characters develop by way of major transitional events. Graduation Day, and the transition to college. "The Body", and all the changes that event required. Then at the end of Season 5, a literal transition which had enormous impacts on everyone. Every step of the way from the beginning, Buffy becomes less of a teenage girl with super-powers, and more of a hero. And of course it's not just Buffy. They've all developed a depth they lacked in the beginning. I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to this.

Willow killing Bambi reminds me of another scene in S3 E4 when she inspects a body at the morgue (trying to determine if it could be the work of Oz). She can force herself to do things when she has the determination. Tara axing the demon attacking Willow is like Joyce protecting her daughter in Spike's first appearance. As said, killing Bambi seems a small price in exchange of the slayer's resurrection. I wonder if we will discover later it can have more consequences.

The 'bot is not able to look after Dawn, so Willow and Tara have moved into Buffy's house. The others obviously help, but Willow and Tara are the main ones looking after her, so they are living with Dawn. Willow has stepped up to take charge in Buffy's absence, but she is struggling. Dawn may technically still be the Key, but without Glory that has lost any meaning. Out of loyalty to Buffy and because he likes her, Spike will do his best to keep her safe, but she is no more at risk than any of the other Scoobies.

Not sure if anyone on Patreon pointed this out to you but the copy you're watching has been censored. It's not a majorly important scene, but this version has edited out a scene. After the bell rings @ 7:26 it cuts right to the classroom but there's supposed to be a short scene with Dawn and the Buffybot arriving to school where they come upon a booth at a science fair. Dawn and Buffybot look at the project on display and the teacher says it's their "city of the future" and Buffybot makes a funny comment. Not really sure why this scene has been completely cut out, but I noticed this last year while watching on Amazon Prime Video. My best guess is that this was the first episode to air directly after the September 11th attacks and in the city of the future display there are two parallel buildings that could possibly resemble the Twin Towers. I don't think it was a necessary scene, but what's even more unnecessary is censoring it completely.

Well, you know how streaming services are. They’ll avoid even the slightest potential controversy for any of their streaming content by altering the original vision for it. ‘BTVS’ gets away with a lot considering it’s a supernatural horror show but it’s a very popular show for streaming services to add to their library. I assume Disney Plus’ renditions of the episodes are much worse. Amazon Prime are pretty lenient all things considered.

Posting my BUFFY REWATCH recap for ‘Bargaining Part I and Part II’. May contain spoilers. In the wake of Buffy’s death, the Scoobies have made arrangements for their lives to play out without her. This includes: taking over patrolling and staking vampires whenever they rise in the Sunnydale graveyard; Willow and Tara moving themselves into the Summers household to become guardians of Dawn, the only Summers family member left; fixing up Buffybot to perform like ‘The Slayer’ as a stand-in for the real Buffy so no one else but them knows that she’s dead. It’s not exactly a functional system, but it’s getting them by for the meantime. They ultimately know that they need the real Buffy Summers, so they (and by ‘they’, I mostly mean Willow because everybody else is apprehensive of going through with it - as they should be) have a plan to bring the real Buffy back to life. In resurrecting Buffy they have a few things to consider: who amongst them should and shouldn’t know, to which they’ve decided is Dawn, Giles and Spike, lest they don’t understand and try to stop the event of Buffy’s resurrection from happening. Of course, none of this would even be possible without Willow’s forever-evolving magical powers and rather advanced computer technology engineering skills She’s the leader of the Scooby Gang now. By unanimous vote and - let’s be honest - the fact that she’s the only competent one among them who can or should lead, as she’s done it before. Several times, in fact, just not to this degree. But that’s certainly not without it’s consequences. Willow’s magical powers have clearly gone to her head - evidenced by the fact she never really stops using them, (as proven in this scene alone with her telepathically communicating with everyone, which is intimidating to say the least), and that she’s arrogantly confident in her Wiccan abilities enough to do the impossible: perform a mystical ritual to resurrect Buffy. She achieves it. Of course she does - because she’s the most powerful Scooby member of all the Gang. So it goes without saying that she’s running the whole operation whether the rest of them like it or not. That being said... pretty much everything that happens in the 2-part starter to Season 6 are the result of Willow being an extremely powerful witch and computer technology genius. This includes: resurrecting Buffy, programming Buffybot to perform not-exactly like-but close-enough-to the real Buffy, planning and executing patrol sessions, killing innocent creatures and using their blood for her spell ingredients (I believe this was supposed to be Shamanism - could be wrong), and just all around being a bad ass who possesses the power and control to do anything she wants. Risks and consequences be damned. It is the most frightening side of the character that we have seen yet, and it doesn’t get any less frightening as the episodes go on. The evolution of Willow Rosenberg is immense. From the good-natured girl we know from the very beginning of the show to the ill-natured girl we see now. A lot has definetly changed and - as a lover of art/entertainment that educates me - it’s very exciting to watch. I LOVE that Willow gets a power corruption arc!

You must have a different version of the episode to me as I’ve never seen the scene where Giles narrates his goodbye speech. In my copy, it’s just Xander that reads it out and then the scene cuts to Giles at the airport with the sad score. I assume that change is due to it being the HD remaster and I avoid that version like the plague unless it’s for gifs.

So it looks like this was done during editing to split it into two separate episodes. Makes one wonder if the Xander version was done by mistake and they had time to correct it for the international version.

I realize that you have a ton of different things going on right now, between Angel, Buffy and GoT! However, in the future, if you really enjoy Buffy & Angel, you might want to also check out 2 additional series. Both from from Joss Wheedon, the man who came up with Buffy and Angel! The first, and it's a really amazing series, is called "Firefly." I have yet to meet someone who didn't immediately fall in love with that show. Unfortunately Fox killed the show after only 14 episodes were shot (and only 11 were shown on TV, and they were shown out-of-order! For instance, the last episode shown was the 2 part pilot episode!) Another terrific show was "Dollhouse." In both series, you'll see familiar actors from both Buffy & Angel!

“Did they make it their mission to traumatize Buffy?” Whedon did. Don’t know about anybody else. But yeah, Buffy still suffers in her second life woohoo 😒 Tara is not in the opening titles because Amber Benson did not want to be credited as a season regular. She requested that they leave her out of the opening titles so that she was free to consider other acting roles. She didn’t want to be tied down to the show. Same for Anthony Stewart Head. He wanted to spend more time with his family so his commitment to the show was downgraded to a special guest star in this season. That’s all it is.

@@becca1189 actually, I quite enjoy the Buffy happy episodes. I mean there isn’t many of them but the ones that are there aren’t bad. Listen, there’s a necessary balance to everyone and everything. You cannot just show one side of the spectrum and neglect to show the other because then you can’t really understand what you’re seeing and why it is something to see. It’s the yin-yang. If you’re happy all the time, you can’t appreciate what it is you’re happy for. It will be an empty and naive joy because you haven’t experienced why it is you should be. If you’re sad all the time, you don’t have a purpose or ambition to strive for. They’ll be no personal passion or motivation to do anything because you’ll never experience it. You see how it all becomes pointless without that balance of happiness/sadness? In real life - there is both. If a TV show can’t or won’t depict both, then it isn’t a good show. It’s not realistic storytelling. If there’s only pain and no pleasure, then it all becomes a sobfest because the constant suffering and tears doesn’t have any catharsis. It’s just there. Not only is Buffy in pain all the time not entertaining to watch. It’s also not educational because we can’t understand it as there’s no point for us to. Or in other words: “I don’t understand. I don’t know how to live in this world if these are the choices. If it all gets stripped away, then I don’t see the point.” Why is it we keep going? Because there’s something to keep going for. But likewise, why it is we feel any sort of joy? Because we also feel why it is joy feels good. Without an experience of both - life is empty. And we see Buffy go through a phase of depression in Season 6 specifically. She becomes completely numb to her experience because she doesn’t understand why it is she’s having it. And neither will the audience if they don’t know what it is she’s lost.

A lot of fans don't like S6 as they find it too dark, depressing and hard hitting. Personally I loved it with some intense episodes. Of course the show had now switched networks and had become more adult in tone and direction. In Bargaining we see the Buffybot still in action, and the gang trying to continue without Buffy, and of course the pending departure of Giles. They decide to resurrect Buffy as they just cannot bear it without her, but we know this will not be straight forward and have lasting repercussions. Some comic relief at the PTA meeting with the Buffybot embarrassing Dawn. We can see with Willow, we have plenty of foreshadowing on her growing powers and addiction to magic. We see when Buffy does come back in the coffin she is totally shocked and is in pure panic, as we saw in Nightmares S1 one of her greatest fears was being buried alive. The Demon Biker Gang of course know Buffy is now a robot, and think they can take over with pure anarchy. It seems to be a metaphor for life without the Slayer. We shall see. Now they have decided to resurrect Buffy as they just could not bear it without her, but we know this will not be straight forward and have lasting repercussions. When Buffy does emerge she is of course totally disorientated and confused. Even though the Bot is torn to pieces it is still so traumatic for Dawn to see this. A great final scene back at The Tower with Dawn, there is of course a reason Buffy says 'is this hell'. Sets up a great, and very dark Season with some brilliant but disturbing episodes.

The writing almost always has substance behind it but it’s whether it fucking makes it to final production script. And whether the actors can deliver that writing well. Whether they can perform and convey it convincingly. It’s this cancel culture. It’s destroying strong and substantial writing, production and performance. It’s destroying true art in favour of easy entertainment.
