Oh, I could see that! On reflection I don't think The Zeppo would have worked for my friend because what she'd probably dig most about the show, at least at first, is the strong, independent female characters. Which, of course, Buffy, Willow, and Faith absolutely are that in The Zeppo, but it's not the highlight of the episode. It's part of the background in Xander's story.

I love the funny episodes too. And the sad ones. I love all the episodes! (Well, maybe not all. But most!)
