Review of The Harvest

This is the second part of the pilot episode that aired on the WB's last broadcast of September 17, 2006. In this one, The Master and his minions are trying to "harvest" lives in order to free The Master from the underground Hellmouth. We find out Jesse is now a vampire, Willow is good with computers, Cordelia's not (I love Willow's "Push the deliver key" line to her), Harmony (Mercedes McNab) is Cordelia's friend here, and minion Luke (Brian Thompson) is not too bright (another favorite line, "It's about nine hours, moron" from Buffy after tricking Luke to look through a broken glass window with the sun shining). The final line from Giles, "The earth is doomed" after Willow, Xander, and Buffy joke about possible ways Buffy could get kicked out of school makes this the perfect beginning of this wonderful comedy-horror hybrid for the next seven years...
