Grow Some Balls or Just Shut Up, Xander
Every other episode, Xander is pining over Buffy, planning to ask her to the prom, or otherwise talking about his loves for, lusts over, and dreams about her.
But then every OTHER other episode, he’s perfectly content to be her friend, gets a couple digs in at Angel, and goes on with his goofy golden-retriever-personalitied life.

Gratuitous Violence, Where?
Damn you Joss Whedon! I should not have been as okay with seeing a room full of murdered high schoolers as I was just now. WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY PSCYHE?
End Season 1
So…. Buffy has died, been resurrected, quit her job as slayer, and been reinstated… all in the span not just of one season but one episode.
How ya gonna top that, Season 2?
