You've gotta remember (prior to the Ascension), the Mayor isn't a demon. He's just some old-timey guy who practices magic. He might wanna become a big snake, but he's just a guy, and Faith was like a daughter to him. We know he was married back in the good old days, but that he outlived his whole family. I think Faith and the Mayor both filled that role for each other; a child for the Mayor, and a parent for Faith.

Happy to hear you're watching Angel, don't watch the opening credits on the first episode!

The 3rd season of buffy is arguably the best one for Buffy’s development herself. It’s all about her discovering who she really is, not just as a slayer. • In the beginning, she’s trying out a new persona named Anne, and realizes she can’t sit back while hell breaks loose. •We discover in an alternative universe if Buffy never had her friends, and went at it alone, she’d die. • We discover that Buffy wants to be more than just a slayer. She wants to experience life like a regular teenage girl, prom, homecoming, graduation, maybe even college. • We discover what Buffy would be if she tried to be more like Faith (reckless and dangerous). • And now she’s graduated. And she’s going at life without Angel to back her up. Overall, she’s gone through some pretty big character development this season

Yes, the Mayor really cared about Faith like a daughter. Very much a mirror of how Giles cares about Buffy like a daughter (which is why I don't think the Mayor needed to have lost a daughter to transfer those feelings to Faith any more than Giles needed to). I am convinced that the scene where the Mayor threatened Buffy and Giles stabbed even though he logically knew it wouldn't do anything, pure emotional anger, was a prelude to understanding how the Mayor would irrationally chase Buffy out of anger because of Faith.

If I remember correctly from the dvd commentary, the spiders that the mayor was eating were actually made of black licorice. Since the scene only required seeing one in his mouth, they were able to get away with it.

I've always found the Mayor's genuine affection for Faith intriguing; not because it makes him sympathetic, but kind of adds this insidious layer to the Mayor; that for everything he wants to do, everything he's willing to do, he still genuinely ends up caring for Faith like the daughter he never had. He's this gosh, golly, Mr. Roger's type who sees Faith the way she deserves and needed to be seen, and wasn't being seen by pretty much everyone else; yet he's still completely evil. Like, the two things should be contradictions, but he makes it work. He's very disarming in that way, because he doesn't feel threatening; which would be the most dangerous thing about him, because he could 100% hurt you if he wanted or needed, and probably not give it a second thought, and you'd never see it coming. Harry Groener does such a great job with the role, and when he does those turns where he says something like, "I'm going eat her." or the worry he had when he goes to Faith's and can't find her, and the anger at the hospital - it's so good. It's that "the anger of a quiet man" type of intensity. And on a side note, "Dick Wilkens" is the name of Ebenezer Scrooge's friend and fellow apprentice under Fezziwig in "A Christmas Carol;" and upon realizing he shares the same name as the Mayor, my headcanon is that the Buffyverse exists in the same reality where A Christmas Carol takes place, and they are in fact the same person.

Can we talk for a moment about this epic slayer fight? Its just so good and epic. We were waiting a whole season and knew this moment would come. Its just soooo good

If you haven't watched the first episode of Angel yet, don't watch the credits during the first episode, it has a spoiler in it. You're good to watch from the second episode on.

I always get emotional when everyone takes off their graduation gowns and they are ready to fight with Buffy. The slayer always carries the weight of the world on her shoulders but in this moment she had an army!

Maybe others have mentioned this but when it comes to Angel, don't watch the opening credits for the first episode. Turn and look away until they're done.

"Well Gosh" Such a fitting last line for him :)

The zoom in when talking about the future of Snyder's character was excellent.

Love how oz steps in front of willow. These season three episodes really show how much of a protector he is and how he always thinks of her happiness and safety first.

The Mayor did *genuinely* love Faith as a daughter, exactly how Giles loves Buffy like a daughter. His Ascension was his upmost priority, yet the second it seems Faith is in trouble, he makes her his number one priority. And in the comics, his spirit would visit her to keep her company. And let’s not forget that it’s literally Buffy taunting him about Faith’s defeat that causes him to have a moment of deep grief before focusing on trying to kill Buffy rather than consume people to maintain his transformation, as was the original plan. The Mayor loved Faith as his daughter. Truly.

The mayor is still one of my favorite villains because he is just SO scary.

23:00 I think Faith gave Buffy some of her slayer power, again for a limited time. Which is why Buffy doesn't die.

31:00 Wasn't just Snyder, we saw several people in the crowd die, including Larry.

To my knowledge, Mayor Richard Wilkins never lied. He also kept his deals and was loyal to his henchman. My kinda villain.

I've been screaming for weeks for you to accept that Faith wasn't switching back. Lol. I mentioned last week you should really do Buffy and Angel back to back. Please do

Buffy was always under threat of cancellation. It was never safe.

Wesley and Cordy, best awful kiss in TV history! 😂

Cass, I don't think you caught that but maybe you got to see it during editing, during the final battle, Harmony got attacked by a vampire. And yes, Larry died too. And if you didn't know already or maybe you forgot, Charisma originally auditioned for the role of Buffy. And because she wasn't chosen for the role of the slayer, they at least wrote it in for her character to slay a vampire. Loved your thoughts, predictions and future outcomes. Can't wait to see your reaction to the next season now that our characters are young adults ❤👍

Graduation Day part 1 was another brilliant episode with the Buffy and Faith fight a super climax. We can see Faith out of control committing cold blooded murder of the Professor. We now know where Faith's knife ended up with Buffy giving it back to Faith in her gut. All this leads up to the brilliant part 2. S3 was where the show really developed into a stellar series. Interesting part where Xander pays homage to Jaws ' we are gonna need a bigger boat'. This was a brilliant Season.

Angel's show has more grown up themes. It would be a scheduling nightmare but I would love you to follow both.

"Everybody made it except Snyder" Well and Larry, and Harmony. I mean they weren't the main characters, but if we're gonna include Snyder they at least deserve some recognition

So this is the second finale to a full-length season. Graduation Day vividly illustrates how different Seasons 2 and 3 are. It leaves the viewer not knowing what to expect from subsequent seasons.

Wesley and Corey’s kiss is one of the funniest moments in the whole series.

for me the mayor became a great villain, after the first rewatch. amazing villain

Thank you for your reviews and I get a kick out your predictions. BTVS is like no other show and the plot line is not always as important as the themes and metaphors. Without any spoilers, it’s not possible or necessary to try to anticipate what will happen. Sit back and enjoy the ride. There have been several happenings over the last 12 episodes that are integral to the stories, characters, and moral themes that took place in plain sight and are almost always missed. That is one of the genius of the show. In life important and life altering things happen and it is not realized at the time.Get ready for the next 4 years and you will realize what a great show, superb writing, and super acting you are viewing. You gave one of the tipoffs to investment… when you has 42 minutes whiz by and you has no idea episode 21 was ending. Be prepared to have that feeling again . Keep up the fun and reactions . You are a joy to watch and observe your descent into the Buffyverse.

So, bit of trivia off the DVD commentary - when the snake Mayor was tearing up the school, that was actually a Mac truck being driven through the hallways of the school that had been used for establishing shots. Most of the hallway scenes were shot on a fairly small set. Also, when they blew up the school... yeah, they actually blew up the school... in the middle of the night... without warning people before hand. They, the production team, were barred from coming back to that city again. I can't find any articles about that, but that's what they said on the commentary, and I like to believe it.

I hope you don't see this info as a spoiler but the single season where the producers and writers wasn't 100% sure if there would be any more season was the first season only. And no matter what some people might claim in the future the series was never cancelled.

RIP Harmony. You're going to be missed.

The Mayor was just a warlock (granted, a very good one). He worked out a way to make himself immortal sure, but there's no reason he couldn't have had kids anymore than Willow could. We don't know too much about his past, but we do know he's been married and doesn't appear to have married again since. (We also know he stayed with his wife til the end, despite her eventually loathing him for his youth in her old age, so whatever family he once had, he certainly seems to have cared about them). I think the Mayor probably did have kids, but they all would've died a long time ago, and I think that'd probably put him off from ever having any more (just like how he never married again). So, much like the way the Mayor became the parent that Faith had lost, Faith became the child that the Mayor lost. That's my two cents anyway.

He might initially see her as a lackey, but he develops an active interest in Faith, not only as a slayer but as a person, he consistently tries to make her happy, he reassures her when she's down or second-guessing herself, he's visibly terrified when he thinks she might actually be in danger, he's completely distraught (and enraged) when he finds her in the hospital, and in the end his emotional attachment to her ends up proving to be his ultimate weakness. The Mayor (like Spike and Drusilla before him) proves that Buffy and Angel's "you can't love without a soul" narrative just doesn't really hold up. It might be a warped take on love, but it's there.

Faith being a runner parallels Buffy to an extent. Buffy also ran from her problems, early on. At the end of Season 2 she ran from her problems but came back at the begging of Season 3.

Just gonna mention that the reason those viewing orders exist is so that if you're watching from literal DVDs, you don't have to switch the disc after every episode. They're a compromise. The only "correct" order is Buffy 1, Angel 1, Buffy 2, Angel 2 etc.

The actor who played Mayor Wilkins appeared on the NBC sitcom Dear John a few years prior to Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

DON'T FOLLOW ONLINE VIEWING ORDERS!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE watch Buffy and Angel simultaneously after this season, ie: Buffy 4x01 and Angel 1x01 in the same video. Since you are already watching two episodes per video, you can actually watch them one after the other, the way nature intended. That's how we watched them when they originally aired back in the day: Buffy would play and then Angel right after on the same night. It would also be cool because there were a bunch of crossover episodes that would air the same night, so you were supposed to watch them together in pairs. You will be the first reactor I have ever seen do it this way if you actually pull through and that would be great!

The mayor calling Buffy a murderous little fiend.....um isn't that one of the qualities you love about Faith lol

The Mayor did really care for Faith as a daughter - which mirrors Giles loving Buffy like a daughter. It shows how the people in a child's life affect them. In "The Wish" reality, Buffy didn't have Giles, and in that reality, she was a lot more like Faith.

I know some have mentioned this before but I wanted to add my 2 cents. Many times Buffy's dreams contain dialogue that foreshadow events/persons in future seasons. If someone says something cryptic, it probably has been written for that purpose...

You wanting Anya and Spike both is crazy.

The Mayor is the best father figure in the entire series after Giles.

Buffy claimed going after Faith was about helping Angel. Taking a knife that would have depleted the blood supply Angel needed instead of knocking Faith out by shooting the tranq gun they use on Werewolf Oz long enough to tie her up shows she had more of a revenge idea in her mind than even she probably realizes. The look on her face afterword even shows that realization. The Scooby gang lying about why Angel left the hospital always bugged me. I get they have issues but I think they only add to their own overall toxicity about him concerning Angelus when they treat him the way they did before lying to Buffy about why he left. The Ascension never would have happened if Buffy and the Scoobies had found Faith before the Mayor. The second she was found The Ascencion was back on. Too bad Angel hadn't of told them how much the Mayor cared about her before this episode after having been undercover. Even if he was unsure (to the point that some fans were also unsure), there was enough there that they could have worked with it before the moment they did) aka kidnapping Faith or mending bridges to lure her back to good rather than just assuming she was evil (It's all another reason why I'm so hard on the group for why Faith chooses The Mayor over them). or if nothing else understood Faith's perspective once and for all. And too bad Buffy was in shock over the action of realizing she isn't any better than Faith. But also, as much as I dislike the fact that Buffy sought revenge against Faith (instead of just being there for helping Angel), the bloodied knife was a good tool for luring The Mayor into the school to blow it up. But again, possibly unnecessary if Angel had just said earlier how much The Mayor cared about Faith. The undercover could have played a bigger help than knowing what side Faith was on. As Faith or Buffy also made that realization/reveal late aka the dream. "Find them!!!" is my favorite non-humorous Mayor moment. It ties so well into the fact that he cares about her in a way that goes against what many fans don't always realize until he yells it. Joss Whedon always called Angel biting Buffy and her obvious reaction to it one of the series "thinner metaphors." RIP Snyder, Harmony, Larry, and the school.

"not the organs moving around" ...welcome to pregnancy 😂

Im really excited for you to see Cordelia's future. No spoilers, but it makes sense.

With Buffy and Faith's shared coma-dream, I've always viewed it that The Slayer has a sort of mystical dream-space, which is where she gets all her prophetic dreams. But, because both Buffy and Faith are The Slayer, they are both linked to that dream-space.

SO many reactors are so afraid for Willow and Oz this season finale. They are TOO happy and the reactors have at this point learned that that is a dangerous thing to be and it must lead to doom 😂

This does not contain spoilers but does contain lore you have been given in earlier episodes. Slayers and girls who might become slayers have the gift of prophecy in dreams. The shared dream was because of that. Faith was giving voice to prophecy. We will let you know every so often to go back to see a scene like this when the events have happened. Love the reactions btw.

What in the world gives you the idea that Buffy being 18 has anything to do with her being able to reject the authority of the Watcher's Council? They aren't her legal guardians. They have no legitimate authority over her and they never did, at any age. The only power they had was derived through intimidation and gaslighting. She could have rejected them at any time(and should have much sooner), it just took their refusal to provide any assistance with Angel to push her to that point.

And now you lucky thing you get to watch Angel too!

IIRC, The WB originally delayed the broadcast of part two by a month or two due to the Columbine tragedy in 1999. It's already been 25 years since that.

If you don't mind star trek, Deep Space Nine has a character named Quark who is played by the same actor as Schneider and is the best character in the series.

When you watch season 4, try to do it in 4:3 dimension, not 16:9. You will see a lot of mistakes if you choose the latter because it was meant to only be shown in 4:3.

It works pretty well with his idea of authority. He expects his students to fear and respect him the way he fears and respects the mayor. Once the mayor turns into a demon he no longer have a place in that world view and is just another cause of disorder and chaos on the school grounds, just like Buffy and the other delinquents. From the band candy episode it's pretty clear that Snyder didn't get much respect as a teenager so he needs this structure to feel any self worth. He'd probably rather be dead than go back to a point where people don't respect his position as a principal.

Small correction. When Willow was ready to sleep with Oz before, it wasn't mostly that it was too soon after the hoopla, but that she was offering it as a way to make things up to him, which Oz knew was a bad reason to have sex for the first time.
