Great reaction to a spectacular episode. In a show with a lot of great episodes the creativity involved in producing a story with almost no dialog really puts it a cut above. I don't give much weight to various show "rankings" you can find online but IMDB lists this episode as the best episode of Buffy at 9.7/10. It shares the number one slot with two other episodes that are equally creative in their own way. (you haven't seen either of them yet) and from what I have seen the fandom generally agrees with this. The three episodes just edge out "Becoming Part 02" at 9.6/10.

The witch is called Tara :) I love this episode, the score is beautiful and the themes of communication are brilliant

A few fun facts-- "Hush" was the only episode of the entire Buffy series to be nominated for an Emmy Award for writing. It was nominated in the Writing in a Drama Series category. It also received a Writers Guild of America Award nomination. If you're a Hocus Pocus fan: The "lead" Gentleman (the tall one) is the same actor (Doug Jones) as Billy Butcherson. <3 If you're a Desperate Housewives fan: This is filmed on the same lot as Wisteria Lane. You can see the Gentleman go to Susan's house. If you're me: I nearly got kicked out of a Christian-ran art camp when I was 10 for making a Buffy puppet with a banner of the lyrics the little girl was singing. ;)

So almost everyone in the beginning is having trouble getting through to each other and understanding each other. Once they could no longer talk, they had to actually start communicating. Yeah, Tara is awesome, she is one of my all time favorite characters.

One of the best episodes of Buffy ever. Lots of people have that “Buffy will patrol tonight” drawing tattooed. I love how all the people who can’t communicate their feelings can only do it once they can’t speak - Buffy & Riley, Xander & Anya, plus Willow and Tara’s magic moment , ugh it’s so good! Also I don't think Tara is supposed to be more powerful than Willow; they were just powerful together when they combined their magics.

"ugh is that a child?" lol love that reaction. Also, yes Tara and Willow are powerful, but they are more powerful together, that is why the machine flew like that.

This is kinda spoilery since it implies Tara will be around frequently enough to be a fave character

I recently learned that he's also Saru in Star Trek: Discovery.

This episode is definitely a highlight for a lot of people. I don't think the gentlemen are from a real fairy tale; they're just something made up for the show.
