Buffy - Graduation Day Part 2 S3 E22 - Full Reaction
And here it is! The season finale. It was AMAZING! I am so proud of Buffy and her friends for what they've been through. They survived High School and are moving onto different things. I am like a proud mother, watching my children grow and leave the nest 😭
I hope you guys are excited for Buffy and Angel starting soon 💜 Angel was a bit of a pain to edit as Fox seemed to want to claim the sound, which was nice of them! But I got there in the end. Hopefully it is just for the first episode and future ones aren't as picky! I'd rather a visual claim for sure. When they claim dialogue, it's hard to get around that

RIP Snyder, Larry and Harmony (sort of).
Not me not wanting to wait 3 days for the next episode than seeing your already 4 episodes into season 4 and started Angel and joining your Patreon lol
Heeeey 😸 Hehe! We are a little ahead here! I was only doing one episode of Buff Buff on YouTube per week and we were getting SO far ahead, so I upped it to two so it's not tooooo bad now 🤣 Welcome aboard!
The mayor's reaction in Faith's apartment is great. Harry Groener is such a good actor, the way he can switch between charming and angry. I think it's fair to say that school's out for ever.
The theme of the S2 finale was "everything falls apart", and for S3 it is "everyone comes together". A very satisfying end to the high-school years.
If you want to avoid spoiler clips when you watch the first episode of Angel close your eyes or look away for the duration of the intro music. Only needed for the first episode.
Yes!! Absolutely will for at least a few episodes haha. I hate the intro as they just show far too much for my liking 🤣
Not sure if you noticed when editing, but I love the long shot when Angel brings Buffy to the hospital. It starts then and follows Angel into putting Buffy on the bed, back out to the phone, through Faith’s room, back to Buffy’s room until Angel pulls the Mayor away from Buffy. It’s almost three minutes long of one unbroken shot. I always just thought it was really cool.
The long shots are always so impressive! I'd be messing up all the time haha
So when this was originally broadcast Graduation Day part 1 aired on May 13th but then the WB got nervous and delayed Graduation Day part 2 until July 18th because they thought with the content, being violence at a highschool, was still to close to the Colombine shooting to air. So we had to wait what seemed like forever to see it although they did broadcast it normally in Canada. Faith isn't dead, she is in a coma. The doctor said she'll probably never wake up so no new slayer anytime soon.
Never wake up.... Okay, so my idea of somehow locking her in a cage KINDA WORKED OUT 😱
Don't worry about Wesley. It turns out that he is completely compatible with one of his co-stars. He just went after the wrong girl. In real life, actor Alexis Denisof, who plays Wesley is married to Alyson Hannigan (Willow). It's a match made in Hellmouth!
i came here to say that about Wes and Willow being real life husband and wife lol
I too am a big fan of Snyder. I wish they had spun him off with a new series instead of Angel, it would have been a lot more enjoyable.
I will miss him!! I really grew to love his character, which is something I never thought I'd say!
Ayyyy s4! A lot of people see s4 as a weaker season, but i actually really like it. It's got some awesome episodes!
YAAAY!! I'm so glad to hear that! I've watched the first couple of episodes so far and it was a bit of a bumpy start adjusting to their new life, but by the end of the first episode, it had all fallen nicely into place already 🥰
I enjoyed snider too. but the way I see it is, they are leaving high school now so he wouldn't have had much of a role going forward anyway
I wish he could have joined the college staff, and maybe even have been bullied there 🤣
Get ready for Season 4, buddy.... amazing stuff coming up. Snyder's "Congratulations, you're all proved more or less adequate." always cracks me up. No new Slayer at the moment. The Slayer line runs through Faith now and she's still technically alive.
I am SO bummed that we lost Snyder! I am sure he would have had a role available for him at the college 😥
My favorite line was: Rupert Giles : "There's a certain, um... dramatic irony attached to all this... a synchronicity that borders on-on predestination, one might say." Considering Buffy got sent to Sunnydale because she started her education by burning down a gym at her previous school and concludes her education by blowing up a school. lol. Such clever writers!
That is SO true! Ah well... at least they're finished with High School now haha
“I’m glad this wasn’t a cry fest” ... good thing these writers don’t have time machines 😶
I think I've cried the least in this season so far! Guess we're in for a REAL TREAT in season 4 🤣
I tend to explain the meeting of Buffy and Faith in Faith's apartment in the dream as simply a prophetic slayer thing. Buffy sometimes had dreams that came true, as we know. Maybe Buffy was just dreaming of Faith. Maybe Faith was never truly there, or maybe she was. Maybe it was two slayers coming together in a shared dream for a brief moment. Who knows? Still, keep that little dream sequence in mind... Great reaction! Looking forward to the next two seasons, which are my favourites 😊
It definitely felt like a meeting of Slayer-minds to me! It was very cool... I did really wonder if Faith had died and then someone joined Buffy's consciousness, in some weird way...! Thank you so much, Neil 💜
Fire bad, tree pretty! IMO, of all the buffy season finales, I think I enjoyed the 3rd season the most. Felt like a good wrap for the whole show, but it went on to be even better from there.
I have to say that I liked this one a lot, too! It didn't make me cry as much as I was expecting, but I feel like it all went SO well, all things considered!
