Then a playoff elimination tournament it is! smile.gif I am just thinking about changing the voting system a little. If we keep the one we have used so far, the tournament will be over in no time. With probably quite similar results. It would be nice to make voting for a given pair of episodes more elaborated and thus interesting. For example, comparing the top suggested scenes from the competing episodes, or some other different aspects of these episodes. Then there is also the question of how to resolve tie-breaks. I'd like to hear your ideas and suggestions, because I am struggling at the moment unsure.gif
Premiere
I agree Lince, a little variation in the voting would be a good thing. It could be as simple as you reach into the bag of eps, select two, and for a couple of days we can discuss various aspects of them. After the discussion a vote is taken and one of them survives, then another two are picked, and off we go again. Just discussing this is fun, actually. smile.gif
buffyfan_21
I agree with Premiere, I think that would be a great idea. smile.gif
lince
Thanks a lot, Premiere and buffyfan_21! That would definitely work! smile.gif My only suggestion is to make the final voting procedure (after 2-3 days of discussions) slightly more elaborated - not a single vote per person but, for example, 5 votes comparing different aspects of the competing episodes.

For instance, voting separately for

Favorite [W,L,or D]
Quality [W,L,or D]
Drama [W,L,or D]
Comedy [W,L,or D]
Importance to the story/character journey [W,L,or D]

The list is very preliminary. Please feel free to add/remove/merge different categories.

Then all votes are put together and the winner is announced.

Do you agree with the whole idea?
Premiere
Very good additions, Lince. I am definitely in favor of a more elaborate voting process. Most of the points will be covered in the two ep discussion and then are clarified in the actual voting.
buffyfan_21
Great ideas Lince and Premiere. I think this will be a lot of fun! biggrin.gif
cherylforba
Sounds good to me.
lince
OK, we are starting the playoff tournament today!

Once the episode pair is randomly chosen, we have 2 days for discussions. Everyone is very much invited to compare these two chosen episodes in any way possible. Then additional time will be given for actual voting. Each voter gives his/her votes in 5 categories:

Favorite [W,L,or D] -- which episode is more favourite to watch
Quality [W,L,or D] -- which episode is of better overall quality
Drama [W,L,or D] -- which episode contains more drama/angst
Comedy [W,L,or D] -- which episode is more funny
Importance to the story/character journey [W,L,or D] -- which episode is more important to the overall story

During voting time the discussions can continue. When the voting deadline is passed, the votes are collected and counted, and the winner is announced. The loser episode leaves the tournament. If we have a tie, the tiebreaking rules are applied. Without thinking too much, I came up with the following procedure. The winner will be decided by first comparing the results just for the Favorite category. If they are still equal, the results in the Quality category are compared and so on. If such an unlikely event happens that the episodes are tied in all categories, then both of them stay in the competition.

Without much further ado, let me announce the first round. I just "fired up" my random number generator and it returned the first pair of episodes that will "fight" against each other. And these episodes are ...


Lovers Walk vs Get It Done


Today and Friday are for first discussions. From Saturday till Monday midnight - voting time. (Midsummer is a very slow time around here smile.gif) As I mentioned before, discussions can continue right until the voting deadline.

So, let's discuss and vote! Let the better episode win!
Premiere
Thanks for setting this up, Lince smile.gif Lover's Walk, Wow, I had forgotten a bit just how much is going on in this ep. Spike coming back to town,kidnapping Willow & Xander, Oz and Cordy to the rescue, where they get blindsided! Spike and Joyce begin their bantering. This is the Scoobie's at their best!!


Get It Done

The inspiring speech at the end of Bring On The Night, has worn off a bit and Buffy still doesn't know just what to do with the SiT's. When they find Chloe Buffy makes a decision that in hindsight wasn't the best. Buffy has no direction in how to get these girls ready to fight, Anya pops off to Buffy and Xander is torn between who to support. I think this ep did a great job of really introducing us to just how much strain Buffy was under all these years, and how it is so much worse now that she has to protect the SiT's.
lince
My random episode generator is so good! biggrin.gif Lover's Walk and Get It Done - the episodes that look so different, so opposite in a sense.

Lover's Walk is all about personal relationships, feelings and betrayals. "Passion rules us all". Spike and Dru, Buffy and Angel, Xander/Willow/Cordelia/Oz. There is some actual danger in the episode, but somehow it does not feel as real. It is from Spike, and Spike is from the same "club", obsessing about what he has and what he lost.

There is no place for personal stuff in Get It Done. It is all gloom and doom. People are depressed, terrified and paralysed with fear. What the point of doing anything if they all doomed anyway. Buffy, on the verge of breaking down, tries harsh words to shock everybody into action, to snap them from numbing, paralysing fear and depression. Even the following inevitable defiance against her is better than this.

The first round is over and the first winner is Lovers Walk ! This means that Get It Done bows out of the competition.

It was a very tight match where the winner was decided by a single vote: in total 7 wins, 6 losses, and 2 draws.

Living Conditions vs Out of My Mind

The deadline for both discussion and voting is Thursday at midnight. Let a better episode win!

Living Conditions and Out of My Mind. If in the previous round we got very different episodes, this time they are quite alike for me. In one episode Buffy is driven out of her mind by her roommate (not to mention all the soul sucking stuff), while the Scoobies themselves are out of their minds for not trusting Buffy's instincts (again!) and, moreover, trying to stop her by tying her up. In the other, Spike cannot stand to live in such conditions where he is debilitated by his chip, while Riley (and his body) cannot adjust to his new drug-free and mission-free living conditions. As a result, both are driven crazy by that. So being out of one's mind and living conditions kinda intermix smile.gif

In the latter episode, Joyce gets for a short moment out of her magically-affected mind to see the real Dawn. Which makes you wonder how "real" is the reality that we see and accept as granted?
Premiere
Out Of My Mind
I actually believe this is an underrated ep, placed slightly before the big run of great eps at the end of Season 5. This one is loaded with great stuff, among them, an appearance by Buffy's "arch nemesis, Harmony. biggrin.gif Also, Joyce begins to show symptoms. I feel that this is one of Riley's best eps as he deals with what's going on, with himself, with the Initiative, with Spike,and of course, with Buffy. All this and I haven't even reallymentioned Buffy yet, of course one of her better eps as she begins to feel the weight of what eventually becomes too much in the Weight Of The World

Living Conditions
Sarah has often expressed an interest in doing a sit-com, this ep shows how well she would do with one. The ep is brilliantly staged with Buffy going on about Kathy to Willow as Kathy is back in their room going through Buffy's closet..and finding her weapons. Parker...boo, hiss, meets Buffy before she returns to her room and finds everything in the refrigerator is labeled. It gets no better for Buffy as she tries to convince her friends that Kathy is truly evil, but they won't believe her. Finally the true sitch of Kathy is revealed and Buffy is vindicated...sort of, leading to Buffy and Willow becoming roommates, as they should have been all along.

What's My Line I vs Fool for Love

Importance to the story/character journey []


The deadline for both discussion and voting is Sunday at midnight. Let a better episode win!
buffyfan_21
Awww, I missed last round sad.gif

Anywho...moving on.

I think that both What's my Line Part I and Fool for Love are very integral to the overall series in the sense that they both kind of deal with the same thing, which is (at least in my mind) Buffy coming to terms with being a slayer and what exactly that means. Both eps are important to the exploration of the slayer mythology.

In What's My Line Part I, we see Buffy struggling with her slayer destiny. She is torn between her desire to be a normal girl with a normal life, and her duties as a slayer. This is capitalized in the beginning of the ep, when Buffy and the gang are taking the career apptitude tests, and Buffy basically says that it doesn't matter what kind of career she could have because she is already the slayer. This is further remarked upon later when Buffy and Angel are in her bedroom together and she looks in the mirror only to see that Angel casts no reflection. I think this scene between them was deliberately placed there to further underscore Buffy's feeling of isolation and "otherness" as the slayer, and that she will never truly have a normal life with a "normal" boyfriend. Buffy feels apart and seperate from the rest of the world in this sense, and I think she feels some btterness, resentment, and sadness because of that.

What's My Line is an important ep for many reasons. it is the first two parter of the series (if I am not mistaken). It is also the ep where Xander and Cordy finally give in to their desires for one another, and it also the ep where everything we think we know about the slayer mythology changes. It is in this ep we learn that there is now more than one slayer because Buffy died for a short time, thus causing a new one to be called. I do think the overall premise of the episode was interesting.

Fool for Love is one of my faves eps of the series. This is the ep where we see Buffy once again learning about what it really means to be a slayer. I think that a few years have passed, and at this point Buffy has mutured even further and has now come to terms and accepted her responsibilities as a slayer. In fact, you might say that she really takes pride in it. I think at this point Buffy has pretty much long moved on from her feelings of isolation as a slayer and has come to terms with her destiny. We can see at this point that Buffy has moved a long way from the days of high school.

I loved seeing all the flashback scenes of this ep, and learning some backstory on Spike and the gang, and the details surrounding how he took out two slayers. I also loved the end of this ep when Spike is in the alley crying over Buffy's rejection and later makes plans to kill her, only when he gets to her house he finds himself comforting her instead. Love that end scene. wub.gif Shows that there is something about Spike that makes him different than your average, souless vampire.

Premiere
This is working out very nicely, great discussion about the eps so far. It is very interesting how well Lince's random generator has paired them up. The aptitude test for Buffy in WML is so sad. The feelings that buffyfan 21 points out for Buffy are even more melancholy now that we look back and see how she was struggling so early.
FFL, definitely one of my faves. Apart from everything that takes place in it, it has a different feel to it, that I can't really categorize. The flashbacks are very well done, watching the genesis of Angel & Spike is fascinating, and the scenes with Buffy & Spike around the pool table, melting hot chemistry!. Along with some great psychological jousting going on between Buffy & Spike. The ending, all the elements an ep needs in 20 seconds.

Great post, buffyfan_21! Both episodes are indeed very related.

At the beginning of WML, Buffy is feeling resigned to her fate. Her future is set in stone. But that is sometime "then". As for "now", she (after recovering from her short brush with death in Prophecy Girl) has got into her everyday slayer routine. She even manages to get away for one evening to a skating ring. With Angel, "one freaky thing in her freaky world that still makes sense to [her]". But then her relatively comfortable "now" is shattered. First, by the Order of Taraka. And then by the arrival of Kendra. The pendulum swings from "no future at all" to "everything is possible".

In short, I love WML, especially the first part.

Before FFL, Buffy has got into routine again. She is constantly training and studying with Giles to become a better slayer. And yet the episode reveals that this is not enough. No matter how good she gets, the nature of her "job" is such that at some point she might want to end everything by letting "it" happen. Killing night after night, no matter how noble the purpose is, cannot not affect you. Still, the importance of this revelation somewhat fades away at the end of episode - Buffy's world is shattered again, this time by the news of Joyce's illness.
