Lovers Walk.

Just by the way, for anyone disappointed with Mark's review of Lovers Walk, here's a link to Arbitrar of Quality's review. (Same deal: Unspoiled first time viewer, a ton of rot-13 in the comments etc. for those who weren't around at the time. But, uh, AOQ's take on things was... different to Mark's. *g*)

I liked his comment about the title - will admit that was something I hadn't thought about.

I am going to re-watch all of BtVS again ... ages since I have done that. See all the episodes, not just the one or two faves.

I'm not sure I trust the arbitration of someone who thinks "Band Candy" was the weakest episode of the season so far.

I sort of saw Mark's reaction coming. He's made it very clear his favorite character is Cordelia, and everything she goes through in this episode is devastating. All we have to do now is wait for his reaction to The Wish..

Mark lost me the moment he posted his review saying he enjoyed "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered." I have always loathed that episode, for so many reasons.

All the review posts almost makes me want to rewatch again. I don't know if I can, though. Thinking about BTVS and AtS just makes me sad now...

I get a weird vibe that Mark is FEELING more because he's expecting angst, you know? Like, I know a friend's mom who started crying when she saw a shot of a baby doll at the beginning of the Titanic just because she'd heard that it was a sad movie. So you get yourself in the mood and ANYTHING will trigger it.

Cause...Lovers Walk is pretty low on the devastation scale for the show. And he's had some weirdly disproportional reactions before. Joss is know for teh angsting, so I think there's some skewiness in perception going on.

Loved the Arbitrar of Quality review. Thanks for linking! :)

I couldn't say that I was disappointed - I was too busy laughing my ass off. All I could think was "Dude, if you're this upset now..."
