My First Watch of I Only Have Eyes for You (S2E19) | I Didn't Sign Up for This

In this episode of The B*tch Is Back, I watched I Only Have Eyes for You, Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 2, Episode 19, for the first time. This one hit different. A ghost reliving a murder. A love that couldn't be. And the cafeteria snake scene that I was absolutely not prepared for. I share what really happened on set that day and why this episode left me with more questions than answers. Including the one nobody wants to answer. Who deserves forgiveness?

It’s such a good episode, and such a smart, interesting way for Buffy to process her feelings about Angel—about what he did to her, as well as her fear and guilt over what she knows she’ll have to do: kill him.

Probably my favorite monster-of-the-week episode of the show.

I just still can't believe an actor like you are reacting to their own TV work! That's so rare.

Thank you for being here! Much love ❤️ and an utter reminder for y'all to stay safe out there

This is one of my favorite Buffy episodes. I think the writing is excellent - building suspense while moving the main plot forward and giving the actors the opportunity to show off their skills. It's also a reminder of societal issues that we still need to work on.

I remember being totally gagged that they had the shooter possess Buffy instead of Angel in the final scene.

Really enjoying your reactions, Charisma! So sorry this triggered old traumas. Thank you for doing this. Thank you for giving life to Cordelia and for being a part of this wonderful show that has gotten me through many difficult things in life. ❤

I'm glad you were able to get through this episode; many of us know about your pre-Buffy attack, and we appreciate your effort through this episode. I was not aware that you have a phobia of snakes. Thanks for the insight about how the snake attack scene was filmed!

This show BTVS & ATS and all those involved from the writers, directors, cast, extras, costumes, sets, everything etc; did an awesome job “catching lightning in a bottle” definitely give yourselves a pat on the back.

Wow, Joyce is either at a friend’s or getting the best sleep of her life where her daughter and Giles and friends are just wandering in and out of the house.

Sarah is incredible in the episode, I remember getting goosebumps seeing that altercation for the first time just a few years ago! The subtlety David portraying Angelus being possessed as the teacher was very good too! :)

I literally remember being 13 when Buffy started airing and then I’m 20 and knowing that this is the very last season of angel. Watching those shows and going to conventions and just talking to everyday people even the cast really changed me and like really I was I really grew up on those shows.

Every time Snyder speaks I can't help but audibly shout "Shut up Quark!!!"

I'm really enjoying your reactions to Buffy and the 'behind the scenes' stuff especially. My kids introduced me to Buffy in the early 2000's and I think it helped give me a fresh appreciation for the things teenage kids go through as it had been a few decades since I'd been one and perspective changes.
