You could see this coming couldn't you?

Anyway, I get back from work last night and find that my OMWF DVD has arrived from Germany. So I stick it in the DVD player, German menu comes up (fair enough I think) and I decided to watch the trailer on it. A clip from season 5 is shown with Spike speaking in German (at this point alarm bells are not going off in my head.

So then I play the episode, the German for Once More With Feeling "Noch einmal Mit Gefühl" comes up in red letters and I watch the scoobies go about their everyday morning routine. Then I listen to Sarah singing in the grave yard. German subtitles are shown (again I decide I can live with this). Once she stops singing, the Magic Box scene comes up. I see Xander. I hear Xander speak in German. Suddenly dawns on me that the entire episode is dubbed in German apart from the singing.

*gah*

Only comforting thoughts is that at least the singing isn't dubbed and I have a collectors item.

Reminds me of when we watched "Grease" in my Spanish class. It was the same thing - all the spoken parts were dubbed in Spanish, but they left the songs in English.

Eep. At least the singing wasn't in German. That would be scary...
