Buffy - The Prom S3 E20 - Full Reaction
This episode was so... satisfying. I feel so happy and yet so sad at the same time. To see all of our "babies" grown up, going to prom, getting ready for graduation and to move on and away from high school... I just feel so proud. Emotional, heartfelt and SO Buffy. A wonderful episode... Very, very enjoyable 💜

I think their dance at the end was because, coupled with the song, it made us realise that it's their final dance together 😭
Remember with the "Earshot" reaction, I said I was always kinda envious of reactors for getting to see that episode when it was intended to be seen? This is why. Don't get me wrong, even on first broadcast Jonathan's speech was poignant. But I can't help thinking it hits different IF you go into it having seen Buffy and Jonathan's scene in "Earshot".
Yes, I have to agree with you on that one! For Jonathan to stand up like that after all he went through shows so much courage AND has so much meaning for Buffy, too!
Ughh, I knew I'd need the tissues for this one. One of my favorite moments in this entire show is Buffy receiving the Class Protector Award. It was so unexpected and beautiful. And I love your reactions, I have since I discovered your channel with your Firefly reactions. Your emotion and empathy is contagious. Not that I didn't tear up seeing this episode when I was a young boy in middle school when it first aired, but I'm just reliving those emotions through you. And I've seen many other Buffy reactors but yours, in my opinion, are my favorite.
Fun Fact: When asked what her favorite episode of Buffy is, Sarah Michelle Gellar has always said it's this one. I always like the smooth way Giles takes the parasol from her when he sees Angel. Giles is my favorite character.
I love this episode AND Giles too 🥰 He always knows just what to do!
Crying right along with you
Angel brushes up nice for a guy who can't look at himself in a mirror. lol
So true 🤣 He's one of the lucky few who don't have to do much and they look good regardless!
I had no idea that children, en masse, could be gracious. That scene with the class protector award is definitely one of the highlights of the show. There are quite a few great moments in this episode - Xander paying for the dress, Giles offering ice cream, Anya asking Xander out - but the award dwarfs them all for me.
Such a wonderful episode... And yes, Xander paying for the dress? Honestly, I'm feeling a shift for the better with his character. I love it.
I'm late! I didn't think you'd upload this so early. Meanie! :P I'll come back to you once I've seen it.
It's this darn non-scheduling thing 🤣 I can't trust to schedule anymore haha
This is one of those bittersweet episodes for sure. You have Buffy being, finally, recognized for everything she does, but also the heart break of the breakup is just brutal (for those of us that have a heart).
Maybe I have a heart but it isn't even beating :-P
