30 Day TV Meme - Day 20

Day 20 - Favorite kiss

The one that jumps out at me is Buffy and Spike in the muscial episode, Once More with Feeling. 

He had acquired a soul of some sort, become a bit of a hero against his will and been feeling rather squishy toward Buffy for awhile.  She had come back from the dead feeling really empty and alone and felt slightly less horrid when in his company.

The episode was meant to bring several plotlines to a head: Willow's manipulations of Tara, Xander and Anya's...relationship issues, Giles coming to the realization that it was time to let go.  And Buffy spitting out the painful truth - they hadn't done her any favors by bringing her back from the dead. 

At the end of the episode, when it was all out there and the audience was feeling all yucky and depressed, suddenly Buffy up and kisses him.  And it's all...Whooooaaa!   Yeah!!!!  You go!!!!

Which I don't normally do when the smoochies start.  I guess that is what makes it the best.
