The notorious musical episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, "Once More with Feeling," was denied an Emmy victory for one bizarre reason.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The infamous musical episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer – season 6, episode 7, “Once More with Feeling” – was denied a victory at the Emmys due to one strange reason. Buffy the Vampire Slayer is typically a spooky supernatural horror series, but its musical episode is wonderfully lighthearted. From Scrubs’ “My Musical” to Grey’s Anatomy’s “Song Beneath the Song,” musical episodes are notoriously difficult to pull off.
The goal of any TV show is to attract as many viewers as possible and keep them hooked for several seasons. But the second priority after topping the ratings is winning Emmys. Emmys are essentially the Oscars of the TV industry. Throughout its run, Buffy the Vampire Slayer won two Emmys and received a further eight nominations. But thanks to a blunder in the nomination process, “Once More with Feeling” was denied a chance at Emmy glory.
The oversight really hurt the episode’s chances of winning an Emmy, because it relied on the voters taking notice of a postcard noting Buffy’s omission from the ballot. The omission itself was already an ominous sign, as it highlighted the lack of respect that the series received from the industry at large, which may have further put off potential voters. If “Once More with Feeling” had won an Emmy, it would’ve helped the infamous musical episode’s reputation in the years that followed.
Why Buffy's Musical Episode Deserved An Emmy Although it was a little jarring when it first aired, “Once More with Feeling” received widespread acclaim from contemporary critics and is now remembered as one of the most iconic episodes from Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s run. For its uniqueness and originality, “Once More with Feeling” deserved to win an Emmy. There have been far less memorable episodes of television that won Emmys in the past.
