"Lie to Me"!

[coalescent]

Also, I think S3 has a lot of good stuff -- "The Zeppo", "Doppelgangland", "Earshot". bibliolicious is arguing for "Fool for Love", but I think that may be too character-dependent.

I wasn't so impressed with "Lie to Me" (except I loved the bit with Giles at the end).

I agree with you on "Fool for Love", but I fear "The Zeppo" and "Doppelgangland" may also be too character dependent (they both hinge on looking at one of the characters in a different light, which makes them interesting mainly because you know the characters).

"Earshot", on the other hand, is an interesting idea. I don't remember it very well, except some wonderful bits (Oz's thoughts!). There isn't much dependence on back story, then?

[coalescent]

I adore "Earshot". It's the core concept of the show at its best. And yes, I don't think it has much continuity.

I would vote for the Halloween episode :)

The love potion episode

[e_pepys]

I just saw that last night after posting. It was indeed lots of fun. Plus, it had rat Buffy.

I wonder, though, whether this is one that boys will enjoy more than girls, in that it takes an adolescent fantasy (suddenly all the girls will find me irresistible) and turns it into a nightmare. Of course the fantasy works for girls too, but it is told from Xander's point of view.

Hush first of course and then find out what she doesn't like about it before choosing the second episode to show.

Personally, I would like to see Hush myself.

I'm sure that can be arranged.
