Anything about the series or any specific scene you just cringe at every time you see it? Not so much whole eps but more specific things. For example, I know it's popular with others, but I hate it when Buffy says to Angel, "When I kiss you, I want to die." I always feel a big huh when I hear that line. And I know it could mean lots of stuff, but I think it sounds awful.

I don't know why but I always have a hard time watching Angel give Buffy the ring at the docks in the Surprise episode. Then her reaction to 'he who must no be named' is even worse. Not sure why I guess my hokey meter goes off the scale.

Oh, yeah, Bryan, I dislike that, too. The whole "my people" thing was just stupid.

Spike & Buffy Having Sex Behind The DoubleMeat Palace.


Anything Parker Abrams Related

The way Buffy reacts to Parker after they sleep together is awful to watch. I think it is partly because it seems so out of character for her, but I will have more to say about that in the podcast.

I also have to add the scene with Spike and Buffy up on the balcony in the bronze in season 6, I think we are lead to believe they had sex up there as well. Pretty uncomfortable to watch.

Can't wait to listen to that Podcast Lol

As for the Balcony scene I have no problem with it......it points out how far into the mess she's gotten herself.....The Doublemeat palace one was unnecessary.

I could have gone my whole life without being forced to see Kennedy's tongue-piercing.  Any Willow-Kennedy scenes are cringe-worthy for me, especially sex scenes.

Re:  the comments above:

As for the balcony scene -- I love it.  I mean I love it.  Disturbing at the same time as being incredibly hot.  No issues watching the Doublemeat Palace scene either.  I like the cockroach demon -- super creepy. Also, I think Dawn being attacked by the demon in the morgue is important.

I Love the Willow/Kennedy Sex Scene ....Actually I adore 'Touched' it's a Fav S7 Ep of mine.
I agree with you about the Dawn/Morgue scene it was Important but it was Gross to watch...Doesn't help that the Vamp makeup was REALLY REALLY noticable.
@Beth
Did you have a problem with Willow/Tara Sex scene's?Or is this just a by product of some Kennedy dislike?

@FaithLehane

This is totally Kennedy-related.  I can't stand  her and I don't want her anywhere near Willow. And I especially don't want her pierced tongue near Willow. But I agree that Touched is a wonderful, moving episode.
I'm sorry if you or anyone got the impression that the Kennedy/Willow sex scene bugged me because it's a gay sex scene. Because no, totally not the reason. I love Willow and Tara together in any context. And while there's a lot I can't stand about Kennedy, a part of it is that she's just no Tara.

I never thought it was a Gay thing......I was 99.9% certain it was a Kennedy thing.....I was just checking.
I couldn't stand Kennedy during the run of the show ....but (and I posted this somewhere ,possibly..Potentialcast FB)The comics have made her slightly more endearing....I really enjoy her now.
As opposed to severe hatred.....which is what I felt during S7.

I know I'm not saying anything new here, but I hate Kennedy so much. I agree with the pierced tongue thing. And her stupid suspenders. I can't believe Willow would ever ever be with anyone like Kennedy. And the Season 8 inclusion of Kennedy makes me hate her even more, funny enough. I could take it if she was a fling, a transition girl. But the fact that Willow stuck with her? You've got to be kidding me. I'm sure we will have plenty of opportunities to discuss Kennedy when Season 7 comes along, but I couldn't pass up an opportunity to spread some Kennedy hate. I hate her more than Parker. And that's saying a lot.

P.S. I hate Kennedy!

There's still plenty of time for Kennedy to bite the dust Wink
and we might get a better replacement .....hopefully NOT another Slayer though.

Spike following Buffy around like an abused pet

Buffy saying "I don't think she'll be back" about Faith, I knew that one of my favorite characters was gone.

The cheesy costume in Reptile Boy.

The Scoobies not staking Spike in Primeval. I thought this was a case of out-of-character moments for half the main cast (especially Giles).

I understand why this was done; Joss wanted to keep Spike on as a main character and he wanted Spike to be the token bad guy on the main cast. The solution to this would be to rewrite the script so the Scoobies seem less brain-dead. They made it clear that the only reasons they kept Spike around was that
a) He had information on the Initiative.
b) Despite his threats, he is completely harmless but could help them fight demons (when he feels like it).
The Initiative was defunct and any info that he had was useless. He is shown to be not harmless, as he can betray information about the Scoobies and / or manipulate them for the flavour-of-the-week bad guy and he'd been actually caught helping Adam.

Phew. Got that off my chest.

Any line spoken by Riley's wife.  I don't even care to remember her name.
