Oh no... please no...

Izz and I are currently working our way through all of Buffy and Angel. We're at season 2 of Angel, and season 5 of Buffy.

Season 5 of Buffy.

The season. The season, with the episode.

We watched the episode that comes before... before it yesterday. Even that made us teary. We've even discussed skipping the next episode, except it's probably the finest episide of Buffy made, and one of the best episodes of any television show ever. So we'll have to be strong.

But how will we survive watching "The Body" again?

*sniffle*

Wow. I've only seen it once too. Interested to see how you go.

This is the sort of thing that makes me a bit bemused, because that particular episode didn't work as well as it could for me. It make me wants to argue (or possible watch it again).

But in the end, I'm glad it affects people so.

It certainly affected me. Its effect was very effective. ;)

Ahem.

So you're saying it effected an effect that affected your affect, an effect which you were not in fact affecting?

I've watched it twice. Knowing how it ends doesn't make it significantly easier, and the relief when you-know-what happens is just as great.

Not sure it's *the* finest ep - 'Hush' and 'Normal Again' would also be in the running - but agree that those three are among the best eps of series TV ever made.
