So you're a Watcher, huh...? Watch this.

The Wish is about Cordelia being granted a wish to have a Buffy-free Sunnydale.

While touted by some as the best episode thus far, I believe it to be the weakest. The opening scene for an example is the most cringiest of the entire show. The episode doesn't have the usual ingredients that make the show enjoyable and endearing and it's riddled with uninteresting dialogue and altered character mannerisms prior to the world alter, with Greenwalt likely allowing too much on set influence, by the female writers. Cordy's social status is of no interest to me, though not a bad starting arc for Anya. Xander and Willow are okay as vamps, but not memorable. Hannigan must of had quite the experience this episode. I like the brief scene of her with Oz, him telling her to leave him alone, in one of his better moments.
