Don't see anything in the discord but the read me first

Diana

Nevermind

DB

Ah yes, the episode where some poor man dies because of Buffy's terrible music lol off to watch it!

DB

Same! Probably not set up fully yet but I'm not a discord pro...

DB

Hear, hear! Never have I agreed with Giles more than in that moment lol

Alley Box

can you see it now? if u used the link, PM me on discord and I will double check your role

Juan Sanchez

I actually talk to Jenny aka Robia weekly. We have each other on Instagram. 🌻💙⚡👑 #ShesCool #SecretCrush

SpikesEcho

If there's a special job of needing to check that dead bodies are still where you left them in the morgue, that job's gonna exist in Sunnydale LOL

ropecrewman36

Yay! I'm so happy the Discord is up!

Dave Ford

But ... but .. stealing blood from the hospital is a 'good solution to the blood thing'. - they don't have to risk fighting anyone and none of the humans get hurt. Plus - did you consider the reason Angel might have been there wasn't to fight the vampires, but to make his own collection?

Dave Ford

Fairly sure he was taking the piss. He'd have been ~20 in about 1980. The BCR would have been regarded as childish kiddie-pop by any self-respecting teenager back then.

zerofk

"I care from you Lost Weekend-ing in your apartment" is a reference to an old movie about an alcoholic author. I watched it because of that quote, and it's actually pretty good.

DB

On more serious level I love how this is foreshadowed in the previous episode. Buffy's very last line to Giles is calling him a liar. And here we dive a bit into why he can be perceived as one. Just like Angel was hiding the ugly truth of consequences of his soulless times, Giles is hiding the reckless stupidity of his youth. Tho tbf who likes to admit once being a bored, privileged guy accidentally killing a friend because you were looking for unconventional ways of getting high... And my fun fact for the episode is that it's a real headshot of ASH photoshopped on Sid Vicious.

Dave Ford

Yes, i was going to say - counting to check the number of corpses you started your shift with is the same as the number of corpses you finished with is definitely a thing that goes on in Sunnydale morturaries.

Dave Ford

BTW - you're in serious danger of squeeing so hard you miss ESSENTIAL dialogue - like Miss Jenny Calender "I just like to see you squirm" Mr Rupert Giles: " I trust I gave good squirm?"

David Ingracia III

fun Giles fact. Anthony Stewart Head makes music and has a decent album out.

Sean

RIP Ripper x Jenny OTP ;n;

Joemanji

Fun fact: the actors who play Cordelia and Jenny are the same age, both born July 1970.

UTU49

Alley! You have rescued me from my boredom! You are my hero. I've been looking forward to this one... because you like Giles.

Allan Cornett

You are getting into the meat of season two. It just gets better and better and better and better.

Kitty

Your enthusiasm is infectious, Alley! Cannot wait for more reactions!

Isac christensen

Angel has been having a demon inside him for 200 hundred years in form of the vampire since he was turned and that was what he meant ( in response to your comment in your video) hope this does not come of as assholey. :)

Bonbon

Nah - squee all you like. On a first watch you just need to get in to it and not worry so much about hearing every last line and notice every detail. That comes after having seen it 5+ times! For instance, I either forgot about it or never noticed that Willow is drinking tea from Giles's green tea cup when she's in the library with Xander and Cordelia. Episodes are littered with little touches and moments that are easy to miss. I had also forgotten about how much I love the last scene between Buffy and Giles, when she talks to him about realising he's a real person not just an 'adult'. It's great stuff.

Dave Ford

He's done a fair bit of musical theatre - but don't google it - you may hit inadvertant spoilers

Jessie

I was so trigger when you didn’t recognize Ethans name on Giles’ list

mr_chillington

i can can can not wait for you to get further in this season :D

AlyAdmirer

… I see we went for a black backdrop for the sign this time. :-)

Rockworm

Who is more excited? Children who are about to go to Disneyland or Alley when Angel shows up?

Ged Kelly

Oh God, you don't know who the Bay City Rollers were, do you? *Cries elderly tears*

Miricat

"Is he checking the bodies?" You do realize this is Sunnydale. They should check on bodies hourly just to be sure.

Phoenix Dawn

I am excited for the rest of the journey, so much!

Lindsay Kinney

Now you see why we were all saying during season 1 "Just wait until season 2! It's even better!"

Holi117

Great reaction as always! Love how into the show you are and how much you seem to be enjoying it. I’m excited for the 2-parter coming up next. I always really enjoyed them :)

FernWithy

Oh, hey, me too. (Never mind. I just geek out on that. It was a good month. ;p)

Lonelyjesse

I fear I might be banned for it but I have to be the grammar police... It's "their" not "there" I feel like I have to point it out because 1) it's one of my pet peeves and 2) as a non native speaker when I see a their / there / they're mistake I have to think for an extra second because I don't understand what is written since I don't directly think of the phonetic but rather of the meaning of a word when I read it

cil

great reaction. just a suggestion...try not to talk too much during the episode. you tend to miss out on important lines when you do.

ropecrewman36

I do find it funny that Sunnydale did feel the need to hire a guy just to make sure the bodies in the morgue are still there. I'll bet that position has a high turnover rate. 😆

Shashank

she's using headphones, she can hear the show while she talks.

cil

Really cause she still doesn’t react to the lines. There were like 3 good lines in this episode alone that she was taking during and didn’t seem to catch. But ok

Acacia

There’s just something about the way Giles says “Ethan and I” when he talks about them, two young, hot, London bad boys, as they take turns to invoke a demon most closely associated with orgies that feels so completely heterosexual to me. Clearly something just dudes being dudes do together I guess. And they do it with mostly other guys? Hmm. Sounds super Dudely to me bro. Yup. Ain’t no Bi icons in this episode. Nooosiiirreeeeebob.

Kirby

Welp, now that I know what Discord is... yeah, I'm not loving it. Horrible black hurts my eyes and the endless scroll that looks like a chat room - No thanks. I hope people keep commenting here and on youtube. Anyway, that's just my opinion, but I am old, I'm sure the kids love it.

Kirby

The Bay City Rollers aren't really worth knowing.

Kirby

Well, for me, the talking makes an enjoyable reaction video. I'm sure she catches lines she may have missed because she has to re-watch for editing purposes. So, please do NOT stop talking. :-)

Allan Cornett

I so agree. I love the reaction but I don’t want Alley to miss ANY of the goodness by missing iconic lines.

DB

To be honest I'm exactly Buffy's age and I didn't know them before this episode either ;)

Acacia

I’m sorry. Did I stutter on the word BI? Also, it seems mighty convenient to me that the writers threw in a single girl into the mix. Good thing she was there to cry no homo! Wouldn’t want to be subtly queering our subtext or anything.

Alley Box

Hi, i totally understand and i am sorry it isnt more enjoyable for you :( Main reason I am trying to transition over there is mainly just so i can have mods help with spoilers and things like that. i just added a new channel that is just going to be for people to comment what they would put here on patreon. that way yall still have a way to communicate your thoughts without having to take part in a bigger discussion again, sorry bout the change, im just testing it out to see how it goes

Arnold Kim

You can switch between dark and light mode in the appearance tab. As for the chat style scrolling, though... yeah that’s unavoidable.

Arnold Kim

I’m 41 and I only know them because they kept on showing up on late night infomercials for 70s rock compilation albums.

Kirby

Oh shoot, I didn't mean it as an insult to you. I am just old and cranky and don't deal with new fangled things very well. I will try switching to light mode. IF I can figure it out, hahaha (Edited to add: OMG so much better with the white background, although I still feel like you can't really have in depth productive discussions with the chat style thing)

Holi117

i never got any bi subtext from Giles towards Ethan. However I have OTHER theories which I will save for now because spoilers haha. Mostly I saw them as best friends.

cil

Kirby, good thing we're allowed to have different opinions :)

Steve Quast

"Are you really living if you haven't summoned a demon in your 20's?" So, what are you trying to say, Alley?

Ged Kelly

Oh, they were terrible, indisputably. It's just that they were a fixed point in the world, EVERYONE knew about them regardless of their rancid music. I was going to compare them to someone who holds the same place in today's music scene but I'm so out of touch with you crazy kids that I haven't got a clue who that would be :D :(

TaraFromTerra

Omg Xander was possessed and ate a whole pig... get over it Jenny. Lol

Richard Lucas

THank you! This cold open, the scene before the credits, is my least favorite of the entire series, and a bitter pill after the previous episode’s cold open with Dru, which is in my top 2 or 3.

Danny Tyrell

ngl i never got that into jenny/giles (i mean obviously there were *some* moments that got me, i'm not soulless lol, just didn't feel super strongly about them overall), but Alley's really out here captaining the S.S. Jennles and i love it

L R

C'mon you just want to see Alley cry. Let's face it that's what we're all here for lol

L R

The Bay city rollers were like the Backstreet boys when I was at school. Yeah I'm old.

Nicholas J Hoover

where is the discord link? i can't seem to find it

Nicholas J Hoover

Wait they are expired. I think there's a way to get a permanent one

Claire Eyles

Hell yeah, totally feeling you on that. Giles/Ethan has always been my number one ship in the Buffyverse. Even with just two episodes there's so many possibilities. :D

UTU49

"Bi icons" You can't throw phrases like that around without posting links to your fan fiction.

Lunar Darkling

New here.. anyone else having an issue with onehub buffing every 3 seconds?

R J Walker (FumblesMcStupid)

I believe Jane Espenson totally thinks they were a thing so I'm inclined to believe it. Why else did Ethan hang around? Just because he still had the lease?! Nah, he was waiting for Ripper to calm down from the Halloween incident before making a move :D

R J Walker (FumblesMcStupid)

I relate so hard. If I'd have known I could drop out and summon a demon I'd have damned well done that in my third year! I got out of my mind in more conventional ways of course, but I totally understand, Giles, yup! :D Love this episode. Wrecked, drunk, raddled Giles is best Giles :D

Paul Maki

You only love one vampire in that household? Benny is going to be sad...
