   Once More With Feeling -- Twice More

           Two shout outs to OMWF in two separate print magazines.   
      
           In the April 6/13 issue of Entertainment Weekly, page 77,   
   "Television's Best Musical Episodes" ONWF was voted #1:   
       "A demon forces everyone in Sunnydale to sing -- sing! -- their   
   emotions. Creator Joss Whedon wrote original music for this rapturous   
   Hollywood homage.   
      
       And in the April 2 - 15 issue of TV Guide in the list "The 65 Best   
   Episodes of the 21st Century", page 23,  'Once More...' was voted #5 in the   
   Top Ten Pick:   
       "Many have attempted the Very Special Musical Episode, but few have hit   
   such exhilarating high notes as creator Joss Whedon's masterfully tuneful,   
   Broadway-ready pastiche of pop ballads, anthems and earworm show tunes.  In   
   2001, we described the hour as 'a widely ambitious, sensationally   
   entertaining and unexpectedly moving experiment in form.'   Holds true on   
   repeated viewings. Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar, above [pic of Buffy]) and   
   the Scooby Gang under a tap-dancing demon's spell, reveal their darkest   
   thoughts and deepest longings, culminating in the soaring song 'Where Do We   
   Go From Here?'  Into the genre history books.'
