Buffy Challenge: Post 57: Season 6 Episodes 15 – 16

Oh I hope these two episodes return the season back on track as the last two left a lot to be desired!!!!!!

As you were

Previouslly on Buffy ……. Riley is going I thought we saw the last of him last season …… Buffy and Spike are intimate ……. Anya and Xander announce their engagement ……. Buffy is working at Double Meat is Double Sweet …..

 

At the Double meat ……. Oh the politics of the burger buisness! Buffy is scraping grease and the smell is repulsing the vampires and he dies for his troubles! Another tough night at the two jobs and the last thing she needs is Spike to show up, So he takes Buffyand she falls for his charms.

Burgers for dinner again, good thing it’s a Buffy special! It’s a shame that Burgers are the only thing they have been eating…. Dawn and Willow are off to the Bronze, not that Buffy will join them.

Anya and Xander are working on the wedding seating plan, which is not going so well. Willow is in a good mood. Vampire dust is so hard to get out of wool! Buffy Vs the Garbage man! One point to the Garbage man! Buffy can’t get a break as she is rejected for entry in uni.

Man I hate people who think they know everything. RILEY??? What is he doing here? New Scar and all! Buffy goes off to fight a demon with Riley, I don’t think Buffy is take this serious as they let the demon get away. The thing got shot with a trank and they I don’t think Riley can top Buffy in what has happen in the last year!

Boys do like their toys, Anya and Xander are discussing the wedding, (monsters and demons!) Loving the Anya and Xander moments. Back to Riley and Buffy as they are coming down the damn. The demon attacks and it looks resonable in the Shadows. Riley is MARRIED, and she is kicking demon butt! So Riley has moved on with a super hot super soldier and Buffy has Spike!

Riley has told his wife EVERYTING!!!! and they are trying to recuit her?  Dawn is giving Riley the 3rd degree. The demon is here to spawn, The trouble meat palace? Buffy needs to leave the puns to Spider-man. Are demons big on the Black Market? Willow can’t let the whole magic thing go.

Just what Buffy needs, hanging out with her ex’s wife! She is really making things for Buffy uncomfortable. The solution, Spike! SPIKE IS THE DOCTOR???? The guy selling thing s on the black market? of course Spike denies it. The old, I’m holding it for a friend excuse, as they find the eggs, Buffy should leave shooting the gun for someone else.

Anya and Xander is coming to understand that the Wedding is just a show and the Marrage is forever! Time to rap this one up as Buffy and Riley finally have the talk they should of had a year ago. Riley does a great job to build up Buffy’s self esteem. They leave and even Dawn give them a hug.

I think that they should of made a spin off of those two and their adventures, it would of been really cool. Willow chipped in at the end nicely.

I wonder what Buffy wil say to Spike now? She lets Spike know that their really weird relationship is over and that she got what she wanted from him and it’s no longer going to work out between the two.

What a cool episode!!!! I really enjoyed it.

8/10

Hell’s Bells

Previously ….. Buffy uses Spike …. Xander and Anya are getting Married……. Willow and Tara are breaking up……. Buffy breaks up with Spike …….. Dawn confides in a demon.

Willow and Buffy are in shock and horror, it is not a demon but it’s the brides maid dresses! Buffy the brides maid another spin off that didn’t take off! Anya of course is going to cry! Anya and Xander’s family  getting together this can’t go well!

“Nothing on earth will stop this wedding now” except the fire guy coming down in the rain. Xander is having difficulty with the cumber bun, This is a big deal for the gang as they are finally moving on to the next stage in their life.

Anya’s vows are hilarious, but she looks great in her dress even with the face mask on. She is marring her best friend! that is fantastic! This is going to be one of the weirdest tv weddings ever! Spike the wedding crasher, with his skanky date. Xander’s Dad doesn’t seem to appove of the wedding. “CREEPY OLD MAN TIME!”

Xander is nervous and Dawn confirms my Skank call! Xander from the future comes to warn him! Oh boy the old man got to the bar and he is about to start a riot! Good thing Buffy ran interference.  Future Xander shows him his Future. It’s not so great…… but the acting and the scene was wonderfully done!

Spike is seeing if his plan is working, which it isn’t he is misrable without the Slayer.Xander is pacing up and down, like a mad man. he has a lot to ponder with the glimps of the future. Anya is still working on the speach and Tara is right, the term “sex poodle” should never be used in public.

Xander has run off and Buffy is running interference again and we hear Anya’s touching vowls as Xander is walking in the rain. The minister is delivering a baby?  Wedding sharades? and Buffy can juggle? Dawn spills the beans and Anya finds out! as the two families go to war! literally. It wasn’t Xander from the future, it was a demon that Anya has punished. Just in time Xander comes to save the day, sort of as Buffy does the fighting and killing! Although Xander does get the fatal blow! Anya lays down the law and the wedding guests settle down. Xander WHAT ARE YOU DOING? Xander doesn’t want to become his father, and he breaks Anya’s heart in the process.

The Girls are conflicted with their feelings as Xander runs off. While Anya is trying to understand what has happen and has been given an option to return to what she once was…….

Another fantastic two episodes to scrubs out the memory of the last two episodes.

9/10

Folks remember, when planning a wedding make sure that the two families are separated by security or it could get messy!
