The dreams in “Restless” (Buffy 4.22) are very much like actual dreams. (Joss wrote this one, of course.)

Wait, is that Christophe Beck the score composer playing the piano to accompany Giles’ singing?

What the hell is up with the cheese man?

I’m rewatching the episode with Joss’s commentary because I need to know what’s up with the cheese guy.

OK, apparently that’s the only thing in this episode that has no meaning.

“Where the Wild Things Are” (4.18) is not a very good episode, on the whole (though abusive Christian lady is truly creepy), but Giles playing the guitar and singing “Behind Blue Eyes” is definitely worth the price of admission.

After Oz’s last appearance on “Buffy,” he and Willow are still making me sadder than Buffy and Angel. Maybe it’s the acting? And Seth Green is really cute.

Even back in season 3, I really like Anya. I wonder if it’s like the autistic kids you read about who love Drax because he doesn’t understand metaphors. Anya seems quite Asperger’s-like.

Wait, Faith had a cat? Or is the cat a metaphor?

Why must The Gentlemen be on the season 4 DVD box?

I still don’t hate Riley. It’s probably the grad student thing.

Holy shit, Xander just said “Avengers assemble.”

I love the way Anya propositions Xander. It’s so logical. Now I’m almost certain I like her because of the Asperger’s thing.

It’s “arse,” Spike (James), not “ass.” You’re British, FFS!!

Did I mention that I went to a concert for the band that James Marsters sang in, Ghost of the Robot? The drummer was in my sister’s elementary and high school classes. (Alex Honnold, the climber who was the subject of the documentary “Free Solo,” was also in my sister’s elementary school class. She got all the semi-famous people.)

Holy fuck, Kal Penn played one of the obnoxious college boys in “Beer Bad.”

Have I already liveblogged that? I’m having a sense of déjà vu.

Oddly, I find myself feeling sadder about Oz leaving Willow than I did about Angel leaving Buffy. Maybe it’s because I know what Angel gets up to afterward but Oz never comes back. Or maybe it’s because I never really understood Angel’s attraction to Buffy, while Willow and Oz made more sense to me. They’re roughly the same age, they’re both smart, and they have similarly quirky senses of humor.

I’m also a little weirded out by grad student Riley going for freshman Buffy. But he’s probably 24 while she’s 18, not 26 when turned 200 years previously while she’s 16 or 17.

I’m rewatching “Hush.” I’m doing it while working on job applications, which I hope will blunt the effect. I really hope this doesn’t show up in my obnoxiously vivid dreams.

“Sometimes I like to crumble up the Weetabix in the blood. Gives it a bit of texture.”

This episode is so well done and so deeply, deeply creepy. The background music is a huge part of that; it’s different than in most episodes. I wonder if Joss & co. were deliberately aiming for an Emmy with this one (it was nominated).

Now I’m thinking that Willow’s “I think I’m kinda gay” in “Doppelgangland” either was foreshadowing or gave someone an idea, because they started pointing in the direction of Willow being a lesbian almost as soon as they got Oz out of the way.
