omwf is an incredible episode of btvs - if you're already a buffy fan

if you're not a lot of the plot stuff is going to go straight over your head and you're left with emma caulfield randomly singing rock about bunnies and spike looking like a totally toxic arsehole (which he is, but obviously there's more to it than that)

Yeah, definitely not a good episode to just randomly jump into. But pretty great in context.

I’m trying to figure out why other shows’ musical episodes seem to work better as stand-alones.

Maybe there’s just generally less built-up lore and interpersonal messiness than on Buffy? Or maybe they intentionally made those episodes more accessible to new viewers?

This particular episode of Buffy was the culmination of a whole lot of plotlines and people being forced by the musical format to spill secrets. It's not a usual "AU" episode at all. If you haven't seen, for example, Buffy's sacrifice of her life at the end of S5 and how her life has gone since her friends dragged her back, it's not going to emotionally work for you.

yeah, this. if you're familiar with the show you'll probably love it. if not, you're probably going to be left wondering what the fuck.
