I don't know how you picked that doll out of the background in Principal Flutie's office in an early episode. Your reaction led me to believe the ventriloquist dummy episode was going to be "interesting". You did *not* disappoint! I've seen reactors make unwatchable videos when a movie/episode contains something they have a problem with. I was pleasantly surprised by your ability to get through that without ruining it. Kudos! And thanks for all of this season. Ep. 10 update: spiders and *clowns* too? Sorry for laughing. (Not sorry enough. Sorry.)
You know I never actually realised until now how smart Buffy actually is she figured out almost everything going on before Giles does! Did anyone just realise that too or is it just me? she figured out a LOT before Giles did and Giles followed her thought process! I think I need to rewatch the other seasons now :)
my early high school never had cliques really; it was just the "cool guys" the "girls" and everyone else. my secondary building (high school) was a converted manor house so the library was an actual genuine stuffy old library, books on both sides and a desk at the far end near the windows where the librarian was, it had a few computers but not many. 5:50:39 Buffy is like "wait a minute...i know what this is...do I? maybe...should i act normal or say something..." maybe it was my early experience with girls...but early in life, before you could call it "relationships" a lot of girls liked me and i kissed a fair few girls either because they wanted to kiss me or the opportunoty just came up. by the time i was in high school and you form real "dating" relationships i was more quiet and a loner and i only had one relationship. it wasn't until i left school that i finally met the person i'm with now.
The whole season?!? Yowza!!! That's a long-ass video!!! Welcome back! Haven't seen you pop up in my feed recently, how've you been? Been about a month...
The Pack was almost banned, it was the first REALLY dark episode and wasn't very well received in some places at first. It was only after it was better looked at and people understood it was more about the possession and teenage social interaction that it was accepted. Hyena's prey on the weak, that is their nature, they don't attack strong prey...so Buffy is too strong for them. But Willow and that other boy are seen as weak to them. After the zoo Xander's behaviour shows many signs of a Hyena if he stands like a man; he sniffs Buffy's hair, stands by his women and dislikes bread (hyena's eat meat not bread), he then begins to hang with the bullies (his fellow hyena's) and pick on people...primarily Willow. He shows a sign of losing intelligence when studying, unable to focus. With Buffy he becomes more primal and tries to sexually assault her due to his feelings for her. But of course the main similarity between Hyena's and Human teenagers is as Giles said "testosterone, it is a great equalizer...turns all men into morons" this along with "preying on the weak" helps Buffy realise the connection between Xander and Hyena's.
I was always a little annoyed by that episode, seeing as hyenas are matriarchal, fight lions and hunt much larger and more powerful species, and generally act nothing like the archetype being portrayed. But I like the episode anyway, and Buffy writers can’t be expected to be zoologists.
@@somerotter hyena's do prey on the weak though and THAT was the important element of the episode...they go after vulnerable prey. also the zoo keeper did say these were a rare breed of hyena so maybe they behave different from the average hyena. they weren't focusing on making it realistic, i saw an interview about this episode...it's about human behaviour vs animal behaviour...humans prey on others...they bully...bullies are cowardly...hyenas do the same. and both teens and hyenas have testosterone turning them into primal morons...it's about the similarities...but also the differences.
@@IDyce88 I get what it’s about, that’s why still like the episode. But hyena are no more likely to prey on the weak than a lion or wolf; and more likely to attack a comparatively larger and more powerful animal than either wolves or lions.
@@somerotter i'm not so certain about that, pack hunting animals aren't necesarily cowardly i guess, you maybe right there...but they use group hunting to the advantage when it comes to a stronger foe. Buffy is an alpha in their eyes...and is there is obviously a reason that everytime Buffy faced them they backed off...but with willow or the other kid they attacked...i mean even in the volleyball they went for their own team mate over buffy. i also just looked up hyenas, it said "for generations people have despised them for picking on livestock, children and corpses" so it's more of a stereotype than fact. but BTVS is full of stereotypes.

Buffy never got enough credit for how smart she is. Her SAT scores get looked over as well.
She's very smart. In season 3 buffy gets into Northwestern college.
@@startingQB buffy hardly had time to study and go to class too. She was too busy saving the world.

All of Season 1 in one video? Fun!

Oh the wee little baby actors who went on to other things!
How about the Nightmare episode or the Puppet show or the Out Of Sight out of Mind those are the best of the season.
Love thiS .
All in one
just by the hyena?
you didn't get "jacked in" during episode 8?
Fritz: "The only reality is virtual. If you're not jacked in, you're not alive."
R.I.P Principal Flutie we hardly knew you
I love the video title, but without looking at the video itself it made me assume it was just 1x06 and I knew she was passed that point.
Leather is conductive. Like skin. Because it’s skin :P
