I had to force myself through the first couple of episodes whilst feeling embarrassed about watching it but then a switch flipped and I totally loved it. I'd recommend watching angel side by side when you get to that point. They are both fantastic. Buffy is more campy and fun, whereas Angel is a tad darker but they both have unforgettable characters.
I find myself breaking out into songs from a particular episode almost daily now that I've completely embraced it.
I had the same experience. I remember watching Buffy at a friends house and thinking it was so silly, but then it won me over. I find a lot of Joss Whedon's work to be like that. Maybe it's because his shows are so character driven and you have to get to know the characters? IDK.

That's a gut-wrenching, but excellent, episode! Season 5 is a good one.
It's one of those episodes that I still remember watching the first time, and it's been 14 years.
Well shit... I'm sold. It might take a while to get to it, but I will troop it out, who knows maybe I'll get hopelessly addicted! :D
Well, even if you don't, we can still be friends :)
Deal!

Even the skeezy cheese song? Be honest! ;)
