Show: W.I.T.C.H.
Original airdate: October 21, 2006

"Matt! Sweet! Where you been?"
"Finding my will to rock. Speaking of which, we're doin' 'The Will To Love'."
"But we didn't rehearse it..."
"Trust me. We'll nail it."

Just an absolutely fantastic all-around W.I.T.C.H. episode, taking place shortly after Nerissa managed to reunite her old team of Guardians under her evil thrall. Though things seemed hopeless for the W.I.T.C.H. girls, they refused to give up, and Will capitalized on an opportunity to rescue her boyfriend Matt, who'd been possessed by the evil demon Shagon. Did I mention this was also a musical episode? Four songs, two of them performed by Matt (whose voice actor, Jason Marsden, was EXCELLENT in this episode), one toward the beginning of the episode in which his inner psyche is in conflict with Shagon's influence ("The Demon In Me"), and then one at the end after Will saves him, the beautiful "The Will To Love", sung while Will looks on, teary-eyed with happiness. In addition to the fierce action and drama, there's also plenty of comedy as Uriah and the Dunnsters perform an... interesting cover of The Itsy Bitsy Spider... this episode really did have it all, and was my favorite episode of W.I.T.C.H., a true highlight of an overall excellent second season.
