Another Friday morning, another Buffy review

And, yes, I will be doing this every Friday. But I promise to always stick them in a cut.

Buffy - Same Time, Same Place

Being a big Willow fan, I really liked this episode. I was a bit disappointed by the lack of Giles, but otherwise it was pretty good. I thought the use of the "demon spotting" spell was interesting, with overtones of whether Anya-Willow might be a possibility (or perhaps just to make the fans speculate). I liked the combination of the "non-existence" spell and the skin-eater, although the demon was a bit too "Dark Crystal" (as [livejournal.com profile] bateleur mentioned). Also the bit where Dawn falls off the sofa was a good touch. Pity there was no more season plot (as far as I could see).

Angel - Ground State

Quite a good episode, although the girl (Gwen) was too stereotypey (possibly she was auditioning for Terminator 3). The interactions between Angel, Gunn and Fred were very believable. The simultaneous "breaking into the vault" was great. Unfortunately, Wesley now appears to be omniscient. I bet that he'll go back to a more normal knowledge level should he ever rejoin Angel Investigations.

The snow (or rather, the ice) has made today extremely miserable. Why ? Because my parents were going to babysit whilst I went into London and shopped ([livejournal.com profile] bateleur has ordered me to go spend some money on myself). Now, however, they can't get here due to the over-night car park situation (9 and 10 hour delays on M11 and A1(M)). Even if they could, the railway lines are currently on dire form.

Never mind, at least it is a Friday.
