Discussion - S6E8 - "Tabula Rasa"

[Dazey]

Thanks, xita--it's good to know that Sarah has a place for her recaps/reviews.

Tara definitely said Miss Psycho Pep Squad.

I'm totally with the Continuity Fairy on the orgasmic-bliss-inducing-ness of the "kinda gay" line and also on the notion that they've now pushed the Anya's-bunny-fear business to its limits.

But where the hell did she get "Umad"? It's "Nwad." You know, Dawn spelled backwards?

The key is for her it was upside down as well.quote:

Ahhhhhhhhhh, now I get it! Thanks, Autumn!

Suddenly my sig seems very appropriate. I suck at thinking outside the box.

Aaah, how I miss the days of The Ruth. Anyhoo, it's good to see Sarah back and writing again. She's classy. And funny. Oh god...I think...I think I'm kinda gay...

Thanks for the link Xita that was one of the funniest reviews I have read in a long time

Please excuse my ignorance but I have just watched Tabula Rasa and came to this thread and someone mentioned a scene where Willow and Tara are watching TV about The salem witch trials, what episode is this from? Im not sure if im posting in the right place but I didnt want to start a new thread.

[BBOvenGuy]

It's from "Intervention," a Season 5 episode. You can find a sound clip of that very scene on the Willow/Tara Classic Sounds Page:

Posting here instead of the Sky thread, because it was up anyway

I just watched Tabula Rasa on Sky. Even tho I knew what was coming, I still was'nt ready for the sucker punch.

I laughed, a lot.

I smirked, when all the wrong connections were made [Anya and Giles especially]

I went Awwww, when the tentative looks between Tara and Willow took place.

I sniffed when Tara and Willows memories came back and the awful realisation of what had just gone down became evident to them both

I nearly lost it at the end when everyone apart from Anya and Xander were alone and sad.

I totally lost it seeing Willow all broken up, knowing she'd blown the best thing that had ever happenned to her, and Tara leaving, having to harden her heart, even though it was breaking and Dawn not understanding why she had to go.

And its not going to get better for a long while is it? Well not in the UK anyway, I'm just waiting for the cloud with the silver lining to waft our way from the west.

Watched this last night and really enjoyed it.
LOL as Spike all restlesslike dressed in tweed realises he's english and to his horror Giles's son.
Angsty and Painful to watch as Tara packs some of her stuff and leaves.
Felt sorry for Anya being surrounded by all those bunnies.

I must admit that, knowing what was coming, I was sort of dreading TR... but I guess that is a result of W/T obsession. The episode is one of most immediatly accessible and out and out funny episodes for a long time.

That said of course there is alot of more serious stuff that occurs and the position in which W/T find themselves as their memories return and the change of mood and expression just ripped me apart. Even knowing T was going I was begging Dawn to go get Willow at the end...

But no...

As a previous poster said it isn't going to get better for a while. All I can hope is that the episodes continue to be of this quality whilst putting us W/T fans through the ringer.
