OK, so it may not be the most intense or scary episode of Buffy ever, but when you watch it for the first time in years, it is so funny!! Willow does indeed form a 'relationship' with the computer demon, but this is not the best bit of the episode.
I watched it last night with a friend, and we couldn't help laughing uncontrollably at the background characters - Fritz & Dave. For a start, is the name Fritz that common in California? His nerdy outburst at Giles is a moment of comedy genius! We also enjoyed Giles reading out the incantation to Ms Calendar to type...with his yelling it to add dramatic tension...we were curious as to how how Jenny would convey the varying changes to his tone with only caps and non-caps! OK, so the plot may not be strong. The most crucial plot moment was meeting Jenny Calendar and finding out that she knows all about demons and the like...but it is a great episode if you don't focus too hard on the general arc of the series!
