On Glee, Xander, and 90s Effects

[shah_of_blah]

While I'm waiting for the latest Dexter to load, I'm gonna go ahead with this meme!

Oh, and before I forget--I posted a rambly and surprisingly positive review of Glee's "Duets" on Critically Obsessed.

Day 22: Best Xander-centric Episode

Well, I have to go with The Zeppo.  It's just so awesomely meta.  I love the scene where he intrudes on the super dramatic conversation between Buffy and Angel, and it's so well done because I can absolutely believe that if we were watching that scene from Buffy or Angel's perspective, we'd be taking it seriously but throw in an outsider...I just like a show that can laugh at itself.  

Day 23: Two Characters You Wanted To Get Together That Never Did

I never really saw the appeal of non-canon pairings, so...N/A.  I can't think of any.

Day 24: Favourite Example of 90s Special Effects

Oh my, so many to choose from!  Do I go with the tentacle monster from "Prophecy Girl" because they didn't have the budget for effects and so dressed a bunch of guys up in tentacle suits?  Nah, I think I have to go with the Mayor turning into a snake for worst CGI ever.  I'm embedding the video because I love this episode so much.  Also Snyder still has the best last words.  Er, except for the Mayor himself.
