Whedon Tv Series in Entertainment Weekly’s Top 25 Flashback Episodes

Friday 9 April 2010, by Webmaster

FIREFLY,

’’Out of Gas’’

’’The touching scenes showing how the Serenity family came together, framed by the pathos of present-day Mal preparing to go down with his ship, never fails to get me a little teary-eyed. And while most flashback episodes tackle two distinct time periods, ’’Firefly’’ threw in a third ’’near-present’’ timeline, just to show it could.’’ — Bethany

’’All the episodes were great, but this one gave us a quiet story of how Mal found his beloved band of misfits. It is haunting, sorrowful, and emotional — a rare, serious moment in an often jovial series.’’ — Emily

BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER,

’’Fool for Love’’

’’A wonderful episode that got me invested in Spike — it moved him from amusing former badass to sincere character with depth. Not just a great episode in itself, but crucial to the rest of Buffy. And its Angel companion ’Darla’ is wonderful as well.’’ — R

’’It depicted Buffy struggling with her mortality while finally showing an important element of Spike’s backstory — his defeat of two previous slayers.’’ — Chris
