Hello All!

What a whirlwind guys! I LOVE THIS SHOW! Some forewarning, I was super tired and sick during this but the show is that good that I was completely invested and in awe of all of these characters & the actors performances. The episode started right in the action & they really showcased the scoobies and their strengths which I loved. I liked that they tricked me into thinking Buffy was back right off the bat with the BuffyBot. Giles leaving was so sad & HE BETTER BE BACK! It still felt different with the lack of real Buffy in these eps which was important. I do worry for Buffy's mental right now, she's really been through it. I cant wait to watch more!

Hope you enjoy the reaction folks. Have a lovely week everyone! Thank you for the constant love & support!

Much love

Dakara x

Not sure if that's hell, but this post is heaven

Nicholas Corgan

As amazing as this episode is, I love how obvious it was that the new network wanted to convey “look what we can show that the old network couldn’t”.

R. Chang

Season 6 is one of the more divisive seasons of Buffy, but I really like it. I'm genuinely not sure what you will think of it, but I look forward to finding out.

Claire Eyles

So NORAD stands for North American Aerospace Defence Command & DEFCON stands for 'defence readiness condition'. NORAD basically tracks potential incoming missile and other threats from air to the USA and I believe Canada as well. DEFCON 1, also known under its exercise name as 'cocked pistol', basically means nuclear war is imminent or has already begun. As far as we know Norad has never been at Defcon 1, not publicly at least.

m.,

It really really is. But looking back on it 20+ years later.. its arguably also the single most important season that the show ever did.

Claire Eyles

It's no secret that I absolutely adore season 6, it has been my favourite season from the first time it aired. That being said, as others have mentioned as well, it is also a divisive season in the fandom. You will probably have people like me singing its praises, and others who will be scratching their heads going, "How can you actually like this season?" The best advice I can give going into season 6 is just to basically ignore both sides, and make up your own mind about it. If you like the season then fine, and if you don't like the season, or you end up just being kinda neutral on it, that's fine too. I'm not gonna try and speak for anyone else, but I know I don't watch Buffy reactors just to make sure they always agree with what I think about different things.

To explain the slayer line of succession, Buffy died then Kendra was called, kendra died and Faith was called, a new slayer will only be called when Faith dies.

Nicholas Corgan

Exactly. Despite the show name, Kendra and Faith were technically the official Slayers. Buffy was an anomaly.

Jon Freezin-Rain

My reasons for not liking S6 is fairly short (no pun intended) but 2 positives going in: THE episode happens it sets up S7 which is a good season, IMO prediction-- more to like than dislike

Christopher simeon

This season has the best and worst things to come out of the show. I don't know if anyone else has told you but similar to restless there is a episode that would definitely benefit from a rewatch and Dakara dissection of the things the characters say. If you have the time then it's fairly early in the season

Koz

I guess this season is indeed a controversial one amongst the fans. I have opinions, and I'm not gonna say a darn thing right now, because I don't want to taint the Dakara experience.

PaulC

Looking forward to your season six adventure, it's definitely a bit marmite (especially compared to season five) so it will be interesting to see which way you end up going! Personally I love it, I think some of the themes are perhaps more relevant now than they were 20 years ago and more relatable to my older self. Either way, you're in for quite a ride!

John

oh gosh... that was pretty crazy.... I do very much like this season. There's some strong episodes ahead of us. I hope you enjoy. Edit: re: passage of time -- I'm assuming it will be mentioned so don't quote me but I believe they're treating this as real time to mirror the original network air dates. S5 ended in the spring and S6 started in the fall. Similar to how four months passed between Season 3 and 4 of Supernatural while my poor lovely Dean was out of commission. That's what I'm thinking anyway.

Toasty Overlord

According to wikipedia (a reliable source as we know), five months have passed.

Stargazer1682

So to be clear though, because the "a new slayer will only be called when Faith dies" is not something said, at least to date in the series; this is either a spoiler or unsubstantiated speculation. Or both, since it conceivably teases whether or not a new Slayer will be as consequence of Buffy's season 5 death.

Collinson

If it's the same episode I think then I agree with the rewatch idea. Maybe bring it up just before the reaction.

Shaun Houghton

The network had nothing to do with it. The show was able to do things they previously weren't due to the change of network. The show had less rules, and less oversight of the rules they did have from the new network. This freedom was certainly utilised by the show and taken full advantage of, but the network itself didn't really have much to with what was produced.

Ed Green

The fawn part of the resurrection ritual is so horrific that not only do the characters avoid the subject, even the resurrection manual does. It calls it 'wine of the mother', which it seems pretty clear to me is an avoidy euphemism for 'lifeblood of the innocent'. Part of Willow's summoning spell for it is 'Adonai elohe' which means 'Lord God', which means she's appealing to the highest deity to fatally spill innocent blood in the name of resurrection (which reminds me of the unicorn killing in Philosopher's Stone). Seemingly a paradox, which definitely contributes to the premiere's dark atmosphere: what good can come of such an act? Alyson Hannigan, a vegan, insisted that the killing itself be offscreen, and had trouble with the scene anyway. Another dark thought: Osiris is the judge from episode 7x4 of one of your previous shows where he performs deadly trials. Imagine that guy listening to Willow's prayers and being in charge of whether Buffy comes back.

Raven Dark

What a great reaction, Dak. Please don't worry about not seeming to react much. You don't have to be losing your shit for us to see that you love something. We can tell even when you don't say a word. Trust me. About the Slayer line and how it works. I might be getting this wrong, but there are many who will correct me if I am. Because Buffy (Buffeh) died in season 1, she is no longer the "active" slayer. This is why Kendra was called, making her the new chosen one. When Kendra died, Faith was called, so now Faith is the active one. According to the rules, another slayer wouldn't be chosen unless Faith died. Love season 6 (I have my issues with it, but I love it) so I can't wait to share this part of the Buffy journey with you, Dak.

m.,

Was there a point to this other than trying to pre-empt events by making Spike as creepy as you possibly could? It's a genuine question. Not liking the character/arc is one thing - but you do seem to have a habit of wading well over the line of whatever is canon/not canon on a fairly regular basis.

Bud Haven

Vampires aren’t cookie cutter versions of each other. The Judge complains that Spike and Dru share affection and jealousy. He couldn’t of burned Dalton without some humanity inside. In this episode Spike shows altruism when he helped the Scoobies for the summer when he had no benefit. Also he showed guilt when he refused to leave Dawn despite her saying he could.

Stargazer1682

There is no point in the series from the beginning up to the start of season 6, where it is even remotely suggested that Buffy cannot call a new Slayer if she died again. In fact, they even suggest the opposite in season 3, "Enemies". Meanwhile, you've told Dakara not to expect a new Slayer, when she's clearly pondering if there would be one in this reaction, because she doesn't know yet. You're influencing her reaction by telling her something that hasn't been established on the show.

Bart Aansorgh

I'm a bit late to the show, but life happened. A lot of people already said a lot about this one so i'll keep it short-ish. Aboout the slayer line.. Who knows if it works with one active slayer like others here said, which would be Faith then. And But as Willow pointed out, This death wasn't of "natural causes" as in, got stabbed or something. But a supernatural energy from between dimensions killed her. Who knows what effect that had. I fully agree wiht you, and said it before. No matter how you come back, something like that changes you. And much like Angel, when he came back from another dimension and we was out of it, That would be a shock to the system for buffy as well. I'm here for the scenes between Buffy and Dawn. In my opninion they are done well, and those are the scenes that really hit me in the feels.

Brian Dworak

Aired less than a month after 9/11. I had to watch these as reruns. I was confused at the beginning too, because I had forgotten about Buffybot. Clever way to have SMG still a part of the Scoobies. Buffybot's childlike innocence and way of analyzing brings a whole new type of humor which I appreciate. I don't remember Tara sounding almost identical to Willow, but she was affected for awhile so maybe it's just me. She seems to have adopted Scoobie-speak too, which you have no idea how many in real life did too back then. I still say "bored now". Spike's scene with Dawn is every bit of that of a protective father. This scene and the one with Dawn climbing into bed with Buffybot made me emotional and wish we had had more children. I was never a Static-X fan, but it felt nostalgic hearing them. The music choices are always that way for me, even if I've never heard the band before. That period of time is very identifiable by its music. Olde English 800 is malt liquor, which is the lowest quality of beer (imo) and back then was ~$1.99 for a 40 oz bottle. As teenage punks and skins in the '80s, we would buy 40s all the time, usually King Cobra (another malt liquor). Uh, yeah. You would've thought they would dig up Buffy before doing the spell... I found the biker gang kinda cheesy, but they were ancillary to the story so not a big deal. I'm glad you took the advice of watching both episodes as one reaction. This was a Grimm-level cliffhanger, and you know how we feel about those. I adore Anya. She is so unwittingly funny and cute and I'm so glad she is a full-time Scoobie. She's very similar to Cordelia in that way (some may see her as a replacement). I'm glad we still have Cordy in Angel though. This was a very emotional and powerful two episodes, and it should have aired as a single, two-hour season premiere. Season six is wild.

Macca Fan

Let's not forget that norad also tracks Santa.

Macca Fan

Yup that was the stuff. Old English 800 and Mad Dog 20/20. Fun times.LOL
