Sunday 5 November 2006, by Anonymous : I agree with #1 and #5, those two were just bad to sit through. I didn’t think the pack was that bad same with mummy girl and go fish. But that’s just me.Monday 6 November 2006, by Mark : "Him" from season 7. all time worst Buffy episode!Monday 6 November 2006, by samanta : I agree with four, but i actually liked The pack - just for the idea of Xander turning bad and how mean he was towards everyone specialy Willow. Instead i would put "Him" from season 7. I know many of fans loved it but i just found it out of place and kind of dull....Tuesday 7 November 2006, by Merciful Zeus! : I’m amazed that "Beer Bad" didn’t make it onto the list - that was truly awful. A new writer trying to wrap up her feminist rant in an engaging story and failing miserably. How to deal with men who act like cavemen? Whack them with a large stick! Just not very enlightening, was it?Tuesday 7 November 2006, by j4p : I disagree. DMP is a hilarious episode. The real worst episodes: 1. Entropy 2. Hell’s Bells 3. The Puppet Show Tuesday 7 November 2006, by Anonymous : Agree with I Robot you Jane, but I would never put Hell’s Bells as one of the worst, i loved the episode though i would prefer them to go through with the wedding, but we can’t have everything....... and hey! the list of bad episodes is getting bigger so much for the author being worried about even suggesting "the bad episodes" idea .......Tuesday 7 November 2006, by Anonymous : I take it this person never saw “Teacher’s Pet”. “The Pack” and “Inca Mummy Girl” were both excellent episodes, and I’m not even a Xander worshiper. I take it the person that came up with this list is very much anti-Xander to have put those two on the list; I’m surprised “The Zeppo” isn’t on here, too. I do agree with “Doublemeat Palace” - that was just agonizing to watch. “Teacher’s Pet” is neck-in-neck with it for the worst episode of all. And as much as I love Jenny’s banter with Giles in the episode, “I Robot, You Jane” was pretty weak, too. Then I’d round out the list with “Where the Wild Things Are” and “Buffy Meets Dracula,” neither of which were gawdawful, but by comparison, aren’t on the same level with the other eps. And I completely don’t agree with everyone who’s so negative about “Beer Bad” - it’s one of my all-time favorites. I do like the funny ones. Tuesday 7 November 2006, by Karin : Oh yeah "where the boring things are" really was a bad one and "Doublemeat palace" please what where they thinking? That episode made me seriously dislike hamburgers for a while...yuck!Wednesday 8 November 2006, by Anonymous : First of all: I Robot - You Jane and Two to Go are in my opinion the worst episodes. The first one for the awful scene with moloch appearing on-screen, the second one for very bad acting of Gellar and Hannigan... I really like both characters, Buffy and Willow... but the dialog and how it was spoken in ’Two to Go’ is very, very, very dull... only the cliffhanger with Giles coming home was good, the rest was an awful chit-chat between some wannabe-super-hero/villain-girls. To Doublemeat Palace: I don’t know, why this episode is so much hated... I thought it was one of the funniest episodes in the whole show. Maybe I like it, because I’m very interested in how films or tv-shows are directed. To be honest, DMP is indeed bad directing... but in my opinion with purpose! Look at the camera-angels and you’ll see a different style compared to a normal buffy-episode, more like in a typical b-movie. Also, the villain could be some bad monster from any ’big-radioactive-contaminated-insect’-film. But that’s exactly, why I like it: It’s a lovely hommage to these old, cheap and crummy b-movies. Last but not least: I know a girl, who works at Burger King... and she was very strained watching the episode, because some scenes reminded her only too well ;) One commentary here mentions, that the writer of it couldn’t see burgers for a while... and I think, that’s exactly what the writer/director had supposed in creating this episode ,) Thursday 9 November 2006, by theprodigal : I agree, Doublemeat Palace is the WORST episode, with Buffys degrading sex scene with Spike to the old lady with the Phallus for a head that spurts fluid. OMG im cringing even typing this. Lies My Parents Told Me, is also awful and one of my worst, that close to the end of season 7 should not have been used to buff Spike up, yeah we get it he is a good guy now, yawn. never mind the fact he ws a soulles creature he kills out of love. And ruining Buffy and Giles relationship if even just temporary. Monday 11 December 2006, by anne : Having watched all 7 seasons (repeatedly!) I agree with the author of the original message: those were my picks also! Not "bad" episodes, just not as interesting as others... Actually I could add a few more, mostly from the first season since I find that as I have matured so has my taste; ie, I can now recognize better the metaphors that Josh was portraying in his story arcs; the underlying messages his characters relay through their choices and relationships. Earlier Buffy seasons were targeted toward a younger audience than were the last few. Perhaps that’s why I now find my favorite episodes in the last 3 seasons. Also, as an adult, I have grown to appreciate/prefer the complexity of the Season 6 relationships (especially the Buffy & Spike conflict) over the sweeter, more simplistic Romeo & Juliet romance of Buffy & Angel. But whatever..."it’s all good!" Wednesday 10 January 2007, by Cesko : I would say 6 pisodes, cause beer bad was so bad and also pointlessThursday 11 January 2007, by jenaissapas : I LOVE ’the Pack’ and ’Where the Wild Things Are’ ONLY the anya/xander scenes. So I semi-agree.Saturday 13 January 2007, by Jelly : "Seeing Red". I just don’t think they needed to go there with Spike trying to rape Buffy. There were plenty of other ways the writers could have gone to make the point that Spike needed to get his soul back. It’s the only episode that makes me feel icky.Monday 15 January 2007, by moby : I agree with the writer’s complaint about having to endure the knowledge that Riley is banging Buffy —’for hours’. That’s hard to take. If anyone is banging Buffy for hours it should be me. Nothing is worse, for a guy, than knowing the hot girl you’ve fantasized about is being ’done’ by some other male. Ouch. I don’t think females have a comparable reference point that would enable them to grasp how much this would sting.
