Who doesn't love teeny blondes who kick butt?
I think my favorite episode is Doppelgängland, if only for Alyson Hannigan's acting tour-de-force as:
1. Willow
2. Vampire Willow
3. Willow-as-Vampire Willow
4. Vampire Willow-as-Willow.
I also wasn't as jonesed about the 2nd season as most everyone seems to be, but I also came in late - 4th season is fantastic, and I have the unpopular Riley love, which I will defend unto death.
"Gosh, look at those!"

So many favorites!
Once More With Feeling
The Body
The Zeppo
Beneath You (that scene with Spike and the cross - whoa)0 -
I'd say my favorite episode is "Prophecy Girl". Every time I see that episode I cry. Her pure emotion after hearing that she is to die when facing the Master. "Giles I'm 16 years old, I don't wanna die. "
or more accurately, the entire conversation:
Buffy: So that's it, huh? I remember the drill. One slayer dies, the next one's called. I wonder who she is. Will you train her? Or will they send someone else?
Giles: Buffy... I...
Buffy: Does it say how he's gonna kill me? Do you think it'll hurt?
[Angel walks towards her]
Buffy: Don't touch me! Were you even gonna tell me?
Giles: I was hoping I wouldn't have to, that there was some way around it. I...
Buffy: I've got a way around it. I quit.
Giles: It's not that simple.
Buffy: I'm making it that simple. I quit! I resign! I-I'm fired! You can find someone else to stop The Master from taking over.
Giles: I'm not sure that anyone else can. All the signs indicate...
Buffy: [interrupts] Signs? Read me the signs! Tell me my fortune! You're so useful, sitting here with all of your books! You're really a lot of help!
Giles: No I don't suppose I am.
Angel: I know this is hard.
Buffy: What do you know about this? You're never gonna die!
Angel: You think I want anything to happen to you? Do you think I could stand it? We just gotta figure out a way.
Buffy: I already did. I quit, remember? Pay attention!
Giles: Buffy if The Master rises...
Buffy: [interrupts] I don't care! I don't care. Giles I'm 16 years old, I don't wanna die.0 -
The Body, so sad.
Once More With Feeling, but also the next ep. Tabula Rasa, I like to watch them back to back.
Grave, Xander love saved the day.0 -
I just re-watched the entire series (again) *lol* I really like the first three seasons, then things got off track for me...
Best,

I can't watch The Body. It hits far too close to home.
Although between The Body and A Hole in the World (Angel), those are my weepy eps.0 -
I think buffy was great up to introducing Dawn. I thought Dawn was a stupid whiney character and was unneccessary.. the whole thing with Gloria/Ben pissed me off.0

The funny thing is that when I consider the seasons as a whole, I didn't like Season 5 all that much. But when I sit down and individually rate each episode, S5 occupies a not-insignificant chunk of my top 20 eps. It's weird!0

LOL. yeah that tends to happen. There's a lot of good moments in that season, but overall it was a drag of a season. but seeing Spike fall in love with Buffy no matter how hard he tries not to is great.0 -

no I havent. should check them out! I'm trying to convince hubby to watch the series with me. I did a full out watch of all 7 seasons in 4 weeks in 2008.. but I don't have the time to do it that quick anymore. i would like to re-watch all 7 seasons again.0 -

Honestly, taken in one go like that, the seasons even themselves out decently. Even S7 isn't quite as bad if taken all at once with everything else.0
