To every idea a shelf...
Probably the most glaring continuity error in the whole series is in "Innocence," where a whole day somehow gets inserted in between Xander having the Urgent and Key Army Base Plan and it actually being carried out, although Joss has fanwanked that one (or I suppose I should say "writerwanked").
Okay, that's one I never picked up! What was Joss's explanation? I don't remember him saying anything on the commentary.

`He combed his hair, Put on a shirt that his mother made, And he went on the air...'
Yeah, I saw the Buffy costume blips in When She Was Bad, but didn't feel particularly bothered by them. It was a screw up but not an important one and it just felt like part of the rich Buffy tapestry.

They were going to Willow's house to "practise" their plan for the following night. Because, you know, the Buffistas are always careful to rehearse their plans!

Sad thing is, I would never have noticed the error if I hadn't listened to the commentary.
My dubious theory is that I was always distracted by 'Mmmm, Angelus' thoughts while watching that episode, but I suspect it's just because I'm dense.

Time does tend to have a serious warp factor in Sunnydale.

Not as bad as this season on Angel, even if that was the reverse effect. One character declared in the last episode that the events of the past five episodes had taken place over a couple of weeks, when as a viewer it seemed very much like a couple of days.

Thanks for all the fish.
Hello folks, we're planning to have a quotable deathmatch for Buffy characters (get quotes from various episodes and try to find the best quote for each character, then have the characters square off against each other) and we'd love for you guys to participate. Thing is, we don't want to spoil you folks. When does Buffy end for you?

Elena, it'll end for us Aussies on the 4th of August, assuming that we have three more repeats to get through for synchronisation issues, then get the last five eps in one stretch. It might end a week earlier if 7 decides to show two episodes together at finale, which they've done before.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Anyone here watched Red Cap? Is it worth a look?
