Notice how young Gile's sounds like Spike, as James Marsters tells it Anothony Stewart Head taught him the north London accent that Spike uses which is also ASH's. He didn't even ask Anthony would just come into his trailer and said you're going to learn, and James never complained.
I always thought it was an underlying reason why Giles could never stand Spike. They are much to similar 😂 also Joyce kinda is similar to what I’d assume a sane Dru would have been like if she was just a vamp and not a crazy one. Very interesting parallel all around!
It's because Spike's accent was genuinely irritating him 😅 You can hear it improve over time. *Spoilers below*:

Although, Spike's accent *is* technically fake/put on. So I suppose you can make a lore excuse for some of it, especially when he's been spending time with Americans.
Firstly spikes accent is not n does not, sound like a British accent n it's especially not North London haha 😆 it's like a mix between London, Essex, Birmingham, n Manchester, it changes from sentence to sentence lol n that includes in the writing..no one from London says things like 'pet' lool
@@jadebel7006 It gets better as the series goes on, and the better parts are definitely stolen from Tony Head's.
@@jadebel7006 Where are you getting brummy from in Spike's accent...?
Also, just putting "n" rather than "and" does not make you sound more English. Drop the affectation son.
regarding Willow and Xanders kiss, Joss Whedon will give you exactly what you always wanted, exactly when you never want it.
Band candy is a legendary top 5 Buffy episode!!!
Loved it when Buffy says "and does he ever say he's sorry", and we immediately cut to Giles saying "sorry".
Ripper Giles has the smolder and I love it
I love the Joyce and Giles dynamic 😂
Band candy must have been one of the funnest episodes for the actors to do. Especially Armin Shimerman. He must have had an absolute blast!
In Star Trek DS9 he's also proven himself to be a brilliant actor.
Buffy killed a vampire with a pencil long before John Wick came around.
Watching this as a kid I thought Giles was sooo old! Now I'm over here straight up thirsting for this man!
Giles' accent during Band Candy is closer to how Anthony Head actually sounds in real life, he puts on the "well spoken posh" accent when normally playing Giles. (he also taught James Marsters/Spike how to say certain things in an English accent)
Actually, the accent ASH usually speaks in is an affectation he adopted at school. ASH naturally sounds like Giles (posh Giles)
@Bri Nope, if you listen to interviews the Giles voice definitely isn't his normal accent. He doesn't use his everyday accent for Ripper Giles, he lays it on thicker than usual, but his normal accent is closer to Ripper Giles than Posh Giles.
@@Talisguy he's talked in an interview about how he adopted the London accent at school to fit in with the working class kids. He does talk that way a lot in interviews but he has acknowledged publicly that it's an affectation not his natural accent (which is more like Giles' received pronunciation). I guess it's a code switching thing.
But not to say 'arse' instead of 'ass'. I love James/Spike but that is one thing that always bugged me seeing as he got so many other things absolutely spot on.
@@leniloubettyboopbossyboots247 Two words I remember James asking Anthony about were "Wanker" and "Bollocks". lol
I love how they communicated the Mayor's terrifying nature by simply examining his Deputy's hands.
So how-exactly-did Faith get that lovely dress? Or any of her clothes, or rent money, or food? A juvenile with no job and without adult support?
Joyce was a total smokeshow. Her pulling out those handcuffs...
We're in the middle of a stellar run of banging episodes.
I mean, she obviously just saw it and took it
Yeah, I'm pretty sure she just stole them.
Also, isn't she supposed to be 20-ish? She's definitely meant to be post-High School, so no longer a juvenile.
@@LoganBluth The BTVS Wiki says she's 17(like Eliza). Yeah, she is a thief and probably a strong arm robber, beating up men that she(easily) gets alone, living on shoplifted convenience store food.
Which again begs the question: why is a nearly priceless asset, the second most dangerous human on earth and a young girl who's been deeply traumatized...not looked after by an enormously wealthy organization? Or Giles? Or Joyce?
The term "Loose cannon" doesn't begin to cover it.
You have to remember that Cordy isn't really the Queen B anymore. She gave up her status to be with Xander in season 2...
The accent Giles uses in Band Candy is his actual accent. The posh British accent he uses usually is something he puts on
Spikey head demon is director/stunt man Chad Stahlenski who directed John Wick 1-3 and he did the action chreography for the Harley Quinn/Birds of Prey movie.
Wait, so the John Wick director is in episode 5, and then in the very next episode Buffy kills a vampire with a *_pencil._* That *_can't_* be a coincidence, right...? 🤔
@@LoganBluth Ohh origins of a story. I think you're on to something.
Something about “you wanna splash around in the poo!” always gets me lol
Writer Jane Espenson's first Buffy ep with 'Band Candy' and what a classic.
Oh yes, here we go again! I love Homecoming. Buffy and Cordy's rivalry is hilarious! Welcome to the SLAYER FEST '98! And Buffy kicks ass as usual! 😍 "Cordelia, the spatula!" 😂
Band Candy is a very fun episode! Principal Snyder following along with Buffy in the car is funny as hell. "Whoa, Summers! You drive like a spaz!" 🤣 Giles aka Ripper and Joyce being naughty in town is great! Bad chocolate! 😂
I hate how Joyce keeps bringing up Buffy leaving as if she wasn’t the reason Buffy left. She told Buffy if she walked out the door not to even think about coming back. How else was she supposed to take that? And her wanting some time alone after killing the love of her life and saving the world isn’t a bad thing.
Furthermore, she’s a Slayer. The only threat to her were demons. And she didn’t have to worry about that cuz she wasn’t actively seeking them out. Also, I REALLY wish the adults would think about how much they’re smothering Buffy, and then consider Faith. Where is she living? How is she making money? She’s a 17 year old girl just like Buffy. Joyce is one thing, but Giles should be far more invested in her care considering she’s a Slayer and he’s a Watcher.
Y'all really need to look up the photos of when Anthony Stewart Head played Frank N Furter in the 90s London revival of the Rocky Horror Show lmao
Band Candy still kills it all these years later
Band Candy is definitely one of my top 5 favorite Buffy episodes.
Armin Shimerman as Snyder was excellent, and we get to meet the Mayor, one of my favorite villains. 🙂
I'm pretty sure that Giles's 'Ripper' accent is the actor's normal accent (and also the accent that James Marsters uses for Spike).
Also casually dropping a recommendation for Star Trek: Deep Space Nine for if you want more Armin Shimerman.
Band Candy is one of my all time favorite episodes. It doesn't matter how many times I've seen it, it never fails to make me laugh. It's definitely one of my go-to's if I'm feeling down and need a pick me up. Snyder absolutely kills it, he's so funny!
Always a good time when Rupert 'Ripper' Giles comes out to play 😉
Giles being a hooligan in his youth is very funny to me, especially as he's all stuffy and proper now.
Omg I love the Band Candy episode! I’ve watched it numerous times and it’s perfect every time 😂 so happy y’all enjoyed it too!
This is one of those episodes that highlights the ensemble level cast...and the show has a large number of episodes where the actors are taken out of their comfort zone and obligated to act very differently than usual. Per usual, I don't do spoilers, but I can say that there are other great surprises in store, and the entire cast gets to strut their stuff, upping the ante season after season. I always loved Band Candy...because aside from being a fun episode (that gets some callbacks later), it gave me Giles and Joyce (and Snyder!) as teenagers...hilariously! Priceless.
You guys stated that this episode was chaotic and then said that the Halloween episode with Ethan was fun. If you think back to the Halloween episode Ethan used the statue of the Roman God of Chaos to cast that spell so that tells me that chaos is how he operates.
The demon in Homecoming is Chad Strelecki (sp), Keanu's long-time stunt double and director of the John Wick films.
On the whiteboard, one of the negative yraits was PB Crazed. That was a shout-out to the Bronzers on the Buffy Posting Board.
I HATE Willow/Xander at this point.
Cordy looks incredible in that dress.
Love the time warp line since Anthony "giles" was frank n furter. One of my fave fun episodes
His rendition of Sweet Transvestite was FABULOUS 🤩
@@Peppermt definitely 🥰
Yes, creepily nice. Harry Groener plays this aspect perfectly.
Scott is the classic guy who decides to pull away as soon as you want to invest. Only in it for the chase
Bit of movie trivia- Kulak, the spiky headed demon in Homecoming, is played by Chad Stahelski. He's now best known for directing/working on the John Wick films, and was Neo's key stunt double in The Martix & martial arts coordinator on the first two sequels.
(He also had a fun little part in Resurrections)
I'm sure I'm nowhere near the first to comment this one.
Comedy Overload in Band Candy with Snyder stealing the show! Band Candy always a fan favourite. Great to see all the adults acting like brat horny teenagers. Funniest part was when Joyce says to Giles 'your like Burt Reynolds' He was about the most famous Hollywood Film Star of the 1970s! That's what makes younger people reacting to this show so entertaining. The part at the end too was also very funny when Joyce and Giles see each other again and turn away embarrassed. Many have said the serious message in this episode was about the dangers of 'spiking' of drinks, drugs etc losing inhibitions, with the juxtaposition of the adults as teenagers.
Cordelia is beautiful in this green dress. She is gorgeous even when her face is covered in dirt. Somehow this only makes her sexier.
Season 2 and 3 Cordy is like next level of gorgeousness. Cannot deal!
@@zenithquasar9623 She seriously is ! which is why I never got why Xander was drooling over Faith when she arrived when Cordelia was literally right next to him looking stunning in that red dress 🙈
Band Candy has always been one of my favorite episodes.
I'm pretty sure that is Anthony Stuart Head's real accent
Giles and Spike are the reasons why I say "Bloody Hell."
Finally you meet the Mayor! We got the Mayor & Mr Trick duo, the cowboy vamp (my favorite!) and Band Candy! Love this episode with "young" Giles & Joyce..LOL
A kazoo intro would be great. I also noticed a flash of a dinosaur in ep. 3x5 - a sticker on the inside of a locker that said etnies. ETNIES!!! oh my god, I had a pair.
I got really lucky with fundraising for camp and our 8th grade trip to East Coast. There was a wildfire and the company paid for all of us to go.
Happy "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer" Friday night with Cody and Sergio! 😊
Two really good episodes for tonight's video.
The "Homecoming" episode is a good one. Love the Buffy and Cordy team up against the Cowboy Vamp.
The "Band Candy" episode is one of my all-time faves. Teenage Giles and Joyce, and even teenage Principle Snyder is entertaining.
Looking forward to the next reaction. 😊
Yep. The number one thing we all want to do, and we reached the episode where Joyce goes ahead and does it.
the actor playing the mayor is actually a classically trained dancer and opened his own studio.
I think Buffy does chaos sooo well. And when Ethan is in the picture, the man that worships Chaos, it is even more fun!!! He is one of my favorite characters!!!
I have been looking forward to your reaction to Band Candy since day 1! Ripper Giles does something to my calm. 😂
Band Candy is one of my favorite episodes in the series. It's so hilarious and fun!
Oh, the time I spent shipping Giles and Joyce after “Band Candy”…
I also love that “teen” Snyder just wanted to hang with Buffy and her friends 😂
Oh, what a spectacular pair of episodes! Slayer Fest is a real fun time, and Oh. My. God! Band Candy!
I ADORE the mayor. He absolutely cracks me up.
"... besides, I look cute in a tiara"
she always looks cute imo lol
Ethan Rayne eps are always so chaotic. Love ‘em!
Homecoming and Band Candy are amazing eps!! Gotta love Slayerfest ‘98 and sexy Giles!!!
To be fair to Scott, it didn't really seem like Buffy was into the relationship, especially with the way Buffy seemed pretty hot and cold last episode. They'd only been dating for about 2-3 weeks at this point...
Not to mention, seeing her ex on the side, even though it was just as friends to be fair to Buffy. Nobody owed anyone anything I don’t think? And Scott at least broke up w her to her face like a man, lol
@@JimmyPageTV
(Minor) Spoiler….
Let’s just say Scott should be celebrating, right about.. now.
@@RLucas3000ooooooh i’m ready for whatever this means! 😅
I’ve been silently vibing since the beginning of this journey but can I just say whoever does the thumbnails for these is an icon, they are so good
I forgot how unbelievably cute Scott Hope was.
Snyder in Band Candy gives me a total Randall Boggs in Monsters University
“There’s still Prom.” 😭 ❤
One Of My Fave Episodes!😱🫣🧛♀️🧜♀️🎛🖥💞
The Rewatcher podcast has an interview with the actress who plays Joyce talking about her experience filming Band Candy if you want to hear what she has to say!
These episodes make me rethink Willow and Xander's characters. As well as their friendship to Buffy. Xander is no surprise, he would replace Buffy with any skirt. Willow on the other hand...
Essentially Faith asks Buffy on a date and Buffy says yes...
We sold 5lb blocks of cheese in band.
Slayerfest ‘98? Sign me up! Homecoming queen race was fierce. No Xander/Willow! Why? 🤦🏽♀️ Cordelia & the spatula 😂 Loved Buffy/Cordy team up! 💚 Buffy can’t catch a break. The mayor finally arrives. I’m not liking how they’re writing Willow this season which sucks cuz she’s been my favorite. Aww Giles/Buffy SAT study sesh in the graveyard. Those chocolate bars would’ve got me. Love me some chocolate 😂 Okay rebellious teenage Giles! 🔥 Snyder had me 💀 That second episode got dark. Intrigued by Mr. Trick. Great reactions as always 🖤
Oh yeah... Forgot about this with Willow and Xander... 😱 It's so bad and I hate it! 😭
@@hannahawesome85It totally gives me the ick! I mean I kinda expect this from Xander at this point, but Willow? I’m so disappointed. Oz & Cordelia deserve better than that 😢 I’m hoping it doesn’t go on for much longer. I’ve never seen the show before so I guess I’ll find out soon enough.
band candy is one of my all time favorite episodes. its so fun. the adults are so interesting as young people. its so good.
The actor playing Principle Snyder was also Quark on Deep Space Nine.
Band Candy was such a fun episode. I know some people hate it, but it was so over the top that you just enjoy it. And the scenes between Giles and Joyce were... something lol
No matter how many times I have seen this episode - no matter how many times I have watched people react to this episode - I am shocked and appalled every time the Willow/Xander scene begins. I think my mind just does not want to acknowledge that it ever happened. And yet... for some reason best known to the powers that be... we must.
Did you notice that Giles put that coat on Joyce without removing the hanger first?
Homecoming I thought this was a good, but not one of the best episodes of S3. We have two competitions running side by side Slayerfest 98 and The Homecoming Queen as well with Buffy and Cordelia becoming obsessed by it. We see some interesting reveals with Willow and Xander begin to have actual real feelings for each other now, when he sees Willow in her dress and dance slowly, and kiss. Cordelia facing down the Cowboy Vampire is a great scene, and the Mayor ( one the the most entertaining characters in the show ) and Trick now working together as well, we just know there is gonna be trouble with these two.
I adore you guys ❤ I look forward to these so thank you 🙏
💜💜💜
The candy episode is my absolute FAVORITE episode ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’ve been waiting for you guys to get to this episode 😂 It’s one of my favorites. ❤
Fab Filipino played Scott Hope, and he also played Ethan Gold in Queer as Folk. That might be where you’ve seen him. If you haven’t seen that show, you should react to it!
It's like, when you finally start warming up to Scott, he does *that* to Buffy! But Faith was amazing, I love the look on Scott's date's face during that.
You gotta love Snyder in Band Candy. "Summers, you drive like a spaz!" I am a big fan of Ethan Rayne, he makes things more fun and chaotic (which makes sense since he worships Chaos). Are you planning to watch Supernatural together? Cody has seen it, I know, but it would be fun to watch Sergio's reaction to everything on there.
Also know, I thirst along with you whether it's Angel or Giles and nod along vigorously at your comments! 🤣
I love it when a non-supernatural character takes on a supernatural threat and wins through, essentially, force of character. Xander is very good at it, but Cordy shows here she is no slouch either.
In D&D 5e terms, Cordy is definitely high "Charisma" 😉 and proficient in Persuasion; in D&D 3.5 terms she has maximum ranks in Bluff and Intimidate, and may well have Persuasive feat. Her facing down the remaining Gorch brother was epic! Of course he was under the impression that she was Faith, the other Slayer, for whom Mr. Trick didn't have a pic.
This might have been said but on the line of podcasts the girls from Morbid do one called The Rewatcher …. They watch an episode and then recap and talk about it every week …. When they got to Band Candy they had Kristine Sutherland on as a guest for that episode and the next one …. And let me tell you it was one of the best interviews I have ever heard imo anyway!!!
I love the adults in this. Snyder the wannabe, Giles the street touch, and Joyce, who would unquestionable have been the Cordelia of her school. Except that Cordelia would have been her acolyte.
Hey, the mayor is like Monk. "Wipe! Wipe!" "Moist towelette?" I thought it was "Leave room for the Holy Spirit" That's probably the Catholic version. Boreanaz as Booth said that on Bones once.
"I need *diet* blood." LOL You know that pig's blood will go straight to your hips. I really feel like I need chocolate every time I watch Band Candy. Like real bad.
I love Monk! 😄
You guys are pretty great, love the enthusiasm.
Great video as always guys!! 😊
We did a lot of fundraising in my schools, but once in seventh grade, a presenter kept saying 'Uh' with every break in his sentence, so the crowd of middle schoolers kept repeating 'uh' with him every time. God it was so rude but funny as a 12 year old. I also sold Girl Scout cookies and only the parents that worked at big places like auto makers did really well.
I agree Sergio, I bet it was so much fun for the actors. It's probably really good for actors to play different versions of the characters they’re used to.
Young annoying Snyder was hilarious. Joyce and Giles were perfect.
I'm glad they didn’t make the characters physically younger, so they can keep with the original cast and that’s funnier...
Band Candy is one of the funniest episodes for sure.
If you would like to hear Kristine Sutherland's thoughts on playing Joyce in Band Candy, there's a podcast called The Rewatcher that had her on for their breakdown of the episode. It's so good! And they're spoiler free, so you can listen without worry.
Passion of the Nerd does knockouts counts for Giles. Check out his channel. Great analysis of Buffy themes and silly things like Giles’ knockouts. Great reaction guys! Always enjoy them. ❤
I adore this episode, as does just about everyone else. I guess Tony Head, dude who plays Giles, actually has a fairly cockney accent in real life (James Marsters based his Spike accent on him) and it definitely came out in his sexy as hell teenage self. Trust me, you kids aren't the only ones who want to, well, eat a bunch of candy and see what happens. Hope you don't mind sloppy seconds.
we all love green
30:50 You should see him in DS9 XD
Band Candy is always a fan favourite. Teen Giles is so great!
You might enjoy going down the Star Trek rabbit hole, specifically Deep Space 9 (DS9) as you see Principal Snyder play another role. It's a bit of a slow role as they flush out the character, but in that show the side characters are kings and might possibly be not only the best part of the show, but the best characters written for TV
Yes ive been waiting for these episodes
God I wish you two wouldn’t slack on making more Buffy reaction video 😂
On that Cordy episode...you just wait.
Band Candy!
Giles using more or less Tony's actual accent.
Kristine Sutherland said it one of if not her favorite episode to film
Ethan is always fun.
Good gag reel stuff from this episode.
Snyder was great. This is why people love Snyder despite him being a thorn in Buffy's side.
Did I mention I hate Willow/Xander at this point? The ship date expired when Oz arrived.
They made you sell fruits door to door? You were doomed to fail lmao
We all love Trick!
Can't wait for Earshot... twice?
Y'all have got to watch the movie. I think you'd love it.
You shouting leave room for Jesus 😂
THE MAYOR!
mr trick looks like a black john waters
Please remember that you said "golly" when talking about the mayor.
