I haven't had time to watch all the discs yet. I almost skipped over what was marked as the final cut of 'Wrecked' figuring I have it on DVD already. But, I decided to watch a bit of it and what do I find? Scenes and additional dialogue not in the broadcast version. When I have more time, I'll have a few thoughts on what was cut. (Yes, I'm now analyzing deleted scenes. :p)
It's quite fascinating seeing the various takes of the morning after scene. Ultimately, I think they went with the best balance of emotions. Some takes I've seen make one or both of them come off as too harsh and uncaring. Others, too emotionally fragile.
One thing that is just too cute and, unfortunately, would have undercut the tone of the scene takes place after Buffy's "God's gift" remark and Spike's "wouldn't be as interesting" response. As James/Spike gets in her face he leans all the way forward and rubs noses with her. I couldn't help but smile. That probably ties with Sarah jumping up after the kiss and literaly swooning as my favorite moments thus far.

Since I don't want to do a cut tag, let me just say that I thought tonight's The Dead Zone was one of the series best episodes. Who knew Anthony Michael Hall could have me in tears?
