But, I'm curious. You're talking about new episodes, so how do you know that the 5th one is going to show this? I could see some advance advertising hinting at the first or possibly even the 2nd episode, but I can't imagine how you would know so much about the 5th!!
Josette,
The demand for Buffy and Angel spoilers has led to a plentiful supply of them on the net, and one doesn't have to look very hard to find them. Most are leaked by people behind the scenes (the creator of the shows-- Joss Whedon-- demonstrates the same degree of self-restraint as our MB!), and sometimes the actors themselves let tidbits slip during public appearances. They also film around here and you can occasionally get close enough to see what's going on, as any student that attends Cal State Northridge (posing as the new Sunnydale High; oops, was that a spoiler for anybody?) can tell you. Sometimes I try to avoid the spoilers (as with the Season 6 finale, but don't think I wasn't tempted), and sometimes you can't help it-- you read it in a magazine article or on an e-list. But knowing doesn't spoil my enjoyment of the show, and in the case of a character's death near the end of last season I was glad I knew about it ahead of time because I think it would've been too awful a shock otherwise.
Things sure have changed since the DS days, eh?
