Review of Bad Girls

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Bad Girls (1999)
Season 3, Episode 14
8/10
The beginning of the most important arc of the season.

Helpless used to be one of my favorite episodes, for being an homage to the actress's slasher victim's legacy. It was good for the horror and the drama. But a little dull around the edge. It also pales in comparison to last year « Surprise ». The Zeppo was the show mastering its ability at self mockery. And is very enjoyable. Only like Amends was, it's too at odds with the rest. And a bit silly too. Bad Girls finally introduced Wesley Wyndam-Price, and revealed parts of the Mayor's plan. This is also the one that marks the beginning of the Buffy/Faith feud. And shows what happens when slayers let their power go to their heads. And the two heroines way, of following a different path, from this moment on. I liked seeing them bound for real, and their sexy dance at the Bronze. But BTVS remains a teen drama, about life lessons. So all of this had to end badly, to have the plot go an even more exciting way. And pursuing its ultimate goal.
