I almost never rewatch this episode because Gnarl freaks me out so much that I just can't enjoy it. But I mean....yay, Willow is back!

Chekhov's clock: if there's a clock in frame you'd better note the exact time because it's going to be important to the story. I love Anya's quote "Is it difficult or time consuming?" I use it all the time when people ask for my help. Okay I don't actually say it because I'm too meek, but I think it. Gnarl is a great demon. I love his singsong. That scene with Spike is so good - seeing the same thing play out from different perspectives, it's very well done.

Preaching to the Horse's Mouth

Spike's insane ramblings: "Look at you, glowing. What's a word means glowing? Gotta rhyme." Remember Spike's poem that he wrote to describe his love for Cecily in Fool for Love, trying to find a word that rhymed with "glowing" and eventually settling on "effulgent?" Perhaps him even in his less-than-stable state of mind trying to describe how he sees Buffy and his liver for her, glowing. It goes The Gentlmen, Gnarl, the masked theatre creatures from Angel Waiting in the Wings in that order as the creepiest monsters so far, although I'm sure there's a few other honorable mentions. Not up for debate though, don't @ me 😉 That last scene is just one of the most adorable goddamn things I've ever seen, no contest😫❤️

This episode has all the core Buffy elements - horror, comedy and very touching emotion. I love it!

Incidently, Camden Toy, who plays Gnarl, also played a Gentleman. This man is great for the creepy parts! I love this episode, good way to have everything back to normal (nearly).

I love this episode, but Lexi, you were the best part of this reaction. You had me cackling the whole way through it. You were so much fun when you got freaked out or pissed at the demon. Gnarl is a fantastic villain. The acting, the makeup, the dialogue, it's all so good. And that scene with Spike when everyone was there but couldn't see each other still gives me goosebumps. So well done. This episode is one of many that's so much more fun on rewatches, because you get to pick up on things you didn't see the first time. Though that means you'd have to stomach the demon again. *Giggles*

"Buffy! You just sat on Willow's face! ...and not in a sexy way." OMG I laughed so hard 🤣

I love this episode. I was a little nervous for your reaction to this one because I knew you were going to be very creeped out by Gnarl. I agree that he's definitely one of the creepiest demons in the Buffyverse, but lucky for me I love creepy. lol

The actor Camden Toy who plays Gnarl also played the lead Gentleman

Everyone always says The Gentlemen are the creepiest creatures on the show, and they're definitely creepy. But The Gnarl is far scarier imo. Parts of this are really hard to watch, even though I think it's a really good episode overall. Though, I *do* think it's kind of weird how 'Willow flaying a random person' is played as a realistic possibility from the POV of the other scoobies. Like, I get that she did it with Warren, but that was *Warren*. It was as gruesome as it was because it was personal. Even when Willow was going to destroy the world, it wasn't like she was randomly flaying people to get it done. So, I get that it'd have to be brought up, but it always seemed a little weird how much most of them immediately bought into the idea.

My only problem with the worm monster in the previous episode (and this totally my problem) is that the writers decided to call him Ronnie. You can probably guess why.

Cory James

Dawn my fav coming into her badass skills of research. She's affected by nothing. Everything is cool to her in an information way. The way Giles used to get excited and then he'd go 'well...not good for us obviously'. I love that for her, you're right that she'd make a fantastic watcher. I also love that they are looking at the same demon database on the computer that they use on Angel LOL Gnarl is one of my favorite demons. So very creepy.
