Series: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Episode: s5e13 Blood Ties
Who's Birthday: Buffy

Plot:
The Scooby Gang discusses plans for Buffy's birthday and dealing with Glory. Giles reveals that Glory is the god of a demon dimension and in order to stay in human form, she needs to suck energy from humans, leaving them insane. The gang starts asking questions about The Key and Buffy finally breaks down and tells them the truth about Dawn.

My Thoughts:
A good episode. This season with Glory is a good season... but not what I would call a favorite. I liked how Michelle Trachtenberg portrayed Dawn in this episode... where she finds out the truth about herself. And even though I didn't care as much for this season as I did some of them... I must admit all the fights with Glory (including the one in this episode) were always good.

My Rating: 4/5

Series: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Episode: s6e14 Older and Far Away
Who's Birthday: Buffy

Plot:
When Dawn feels that nobody wants to spend time with her, she makes a wish in front of a Vengeance demon (posing as school counselor) that everyone would stay with her. During Buffy's birthday party, Dawn's penchant for shoplifting is discovered while the gang tries to figure out why nobody is able to leave the house.

My Thoughts:
I enjoyed this episode quite a bit too. The way none of the birthday parties on Buffy goes well.... makes for a fun show. It seemed like a couple of the characters was in this one for little to no reason. Guess they were basically just brought in to beef up the guest list at the party some. This is the last Buffy episode I have marked that has something to do with birthdays. It seems there wasn't one in the final season of the series? Or am I missing any?

Gotcha I guess you got all of the 7 seasons of Buffy? I've never seen buffy actually. I've heard alot of great things about it. But come to Vampire shows\movies. I've always been a bit sceptical, its so close between a great succsess, a great tv-show\movie to a real bad tv-show\movie. But i can see youre a big fan, from what i've seen so far.

I would recommend it... even the weaker seasons has a lot of good episodes in it.

Though I would say, don't jump to conclusions after the (short) first season. While it was still good... it really didn't pick up till season 2.

Series: Tru Calling
Episode: s2e3 In the Dark
Who's Birthday: Tru

Plot:
When the lights go out during a surprise birthday party in the morgue, Tru hears someone asking for help-but due to the darkness, she has no idea who needs to be saved.

My Thoughts:
This is one of my all-time favorite short lived TV Series. Matter of fact... I am still upset with FOX for canceling this series! I know a lot of people that loved this series... and I know a lot of people that hated it. I just happen to be one that absolutely loved it. This happens to be one of my favorite episodes. I really enjoyed it a lot. The fact that she didn't know who it was that called her name really added something to the episode.  Gave it a bit extra mystery. And definitely a harder job for Tru.
