Part of the problem with Netflix's 'binge' model is that their shows can't course-correct off a weak opening. So, no, don't hope too hard for that

Even everyone's favorite S7 episode, "Conversations with Dead People", was garbage. They never explained what was the deal with the ghost of Buffy's mom, who told Dawn not to trust Buffy, which amounted to NOTHING.
Just a terrible job all around.

Alternate universe better Season 7:
Yes, Spike has his soul back, but it's all a ruse! He doesn't remember, but the plan is for the chip to start "malfunctioning" after he's gained the gang's trust. They'll have it turned off, and then his soul goes away again! Anya dies mysteriously; Xander, now realizing what Anya

There's an episode where Patrick McGoohan, as a DA, points out that all of her relatives have been accused of murders. Jessica on the witness stand is all, "yeah, but the circumstances behind that, uh…" It was pretty funny

'Menace, Anyone' is everything I want out of the title of a Murder, She Wrote episode

This is another instance where I think you're failing to think critically. First of all, yes, there are many things we do on this very, very large ball that seem functionally the same as if we were on a flat plane. Grade school children are taught this in math classes.

Trump will do it, but only because he thinks this is the guy who did the Garfield movie

unless they have business degrees, you meant 'MRA'

Nobody was ever going to be satisfied with the first post-Angel Buffy season. It was still better than anything else on TV at the time.

This description makes it sound like Adam's plan was just to kill a bunch of people and demons, but that's not true. The plan was to use the resulting glut of human and demon parts to make an army of creatures like himself, which would have been unstoppable, considering how hard he was to beat alone.

Adam was the Big Bad. The Initiative was the Little Bad — the person, monster, group, or thing that you're led to believe is the season's major threat early on, but actually its purpose is to pave the way for the real Big Bad.

Well, I'm glad they're not impaling each other on antlers.

No, man, I'm sorry, you've spent all your YouTube capital with me already. I can only watch so many videos where people don't know what they're talking about, and something tells me that if this one was the real kicked that would finally convince me that everything about science is wrong, you would have led with it

Hey James, Spike wasn't a Big Bad though, he (with Dru) was a Little Bad — a character who seems to be the focal point for the season until, usually around the halfway point, his/her/its actions directly or indirectly pave the way for the Big Bad. Other Little Bads include Faith, The Initiative, Dawn (kind of an

I'm sorry, man, I'm not going to watch any more of your videos. I've already seen enough evidence that you're confused.

Then forget the JREF and get yourself a Nobel prize and a lifetime of fame for upending all of science. Publish your findings in a journal. I don't know if you understand how amazing the claim you're making is, but to give you some idea: I'm 100% certain the earth is a globe, and I'm not going to do any silly

No, I don't know everything, but the shape of the earth is kind of one of the basics.

Of course it's wrong, Dave, all these videos you're linking to are made by angry young dudes with no science background. He cites this website about whether a flat earth would have a horizon, but he completely misunderstands the answer. The article says that a flat earth would have a horizon at a similar height; the

Agreed with most of that, except, IIRC the scene with Andrew was him with a bunch of Slayerettes, and he seemed to be sort of in a Charlie's Angels scenario, right? Granted I only watched that episode once, and will definitely not watch it again.

Chloe: "Statue of Liberty, you have to come back into CTU headquarters. I can't keep covering for you all day!"
Statue of Liberty: "They have my family Chloe!"
Chloe: "What am I going to tell Chapelle?!"
Statue of Liberty: "DAMMIT!!"
