A really good season starter. It was a stand alone episode, that really helps any 'new' fans get into the series. The whole Dracula idea was neat, I mean, their own spin on the vampire was really nice to see. I loved his powers and the wolf XD And slave Xander!
The Tara/Willow stuff was really sweet, I think season 5 was great for their relationship, it felt more real. Also, love the end where Dawn is first seen, great way to introduce a character and keep the fans stunned. 9/10

I really liked this episode and the whole Butt Monkey thing was funny with Xander.

I think this is my most favorite season premier of BtVS. This episode is light and still interesting, great dialogs, good acting, and lots of action.
Good choice in picking the actor for Dracula - Rudolf Martin does a great job. And it’s extra amusing knowing his history with SMG.
And not to mention the brilliant way to introduce Dawn into the mix…I can still remember the months I’ve spent speculation about her origins with my friends.
9.5/10!

I love this episode! Xander is too funny. Im also partial to it because i own one of the candle props from Dracs castle!
I do think Draculas makeup was a tad too light, But great acting nontheless!!
10!!

I thought this was a signature episode for the show to outsiders. A vampire slayer.. vs the most well known vampire..ever! You would think doing this would be too risky for a show like buffy. But after OMWF you are aware that this show can really do whatever it wants and can pass it off as amazing tv! The whole dracula thing was cool! I like how he takes the castle with him everywhere and how him Spike and Anya used to be.. "friends" lol I loved the beach scene at the start, did you not just say.. awww, this is how they should be at the start and finish of every episode! Xander hearing the fly and eating it was funny! And buffy's pink leather..sexy! lol I don't get how he just kinda .. decides to leave imean ok, his throll isn't working on her anymore but he surely still has the power to defeat her..?
