Just two FanGirls offering our thoughts and opinions on each episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Season 6 is done. What does it all mean? Jewelry Designer, Peggi Li joins us to make it make sense and to talk about how she got into designing jewelry featured on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and so many other shows.
Willow still has a job to do, but Giles returns to put a squash on it as well as put his own life in danger. And the world is saved by mansplaining.
Dark Willow has a To Do list that needs taken care of. On the top of that list, Warren.
It's the moment you've all been waiting for! Ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together...welcome to the stage...DARK WILLOW!!!
Yo, between Spike and Xander and Warren, there is a LOT of male toxicity in this episode.
We finally got around to talking about the movie that started it all. Which one of us lurves it? Which one would like to see it die in a fiery crash? Listen to find out!
It's like Rockwell when Buffy finds out somebody's been watching! Feelings come out, secrets are revealed and vengeance is served. Also, does Spike shower?
This is one of the most important episodes of Buffy, so it gives us lots to unpack and chat about. So we'll start off slow, by reading more listener reviews.
Xander gets a glimpse into his fake future with Anya, and calls off the wedding...like a bitca. But first, we read some listener reviews!
And then there was that time when Riley brought his raggedy a$$ back to Sunnydale and made Buffy question her entire existence.
You may know her as Kathy, Buffy's bad college roommate experience. But now, it's time you got to know Dagney Kerr, the artist, writer, photographer and delightful woman.
It's Buffy's birthday! She's having a party! Everything is gonna be great! Right? RIGHT?!
Are you watching Room 104? Is Orlando's dog really dead? And how dark does The Trio get?
Buffy has brand spanking new job! And while she's dealing with that slow death, everyone else has some demons to contend with.
Buffy finally gets everything she never knew she wanted and turns invisible.
Buffy is trying to make sense of her night of filthy passion, while Willow let's Amy drag her further into the filth that is Rack.
Willow FINALLY gets around to returning Amy back to her natural form and Buffy FINALLY decides to check out Spike's natural form. (Heh, Heh)
Not learning her lesson, Willow keeps trying to mess with Tara's mind and ends up throwing the whole crew out of wack.
Do we really need to intro this? Cue the music!
Dawn and her band of nitwits go out for Halloween shenanigans. It's the beginning of the end for Willow and Tara...and also Xander and Anya. Turns out Spike does NOT have hot sauce in his bag.
It's Bring Your Slayer to Work Day! Buffy tries to figure out her path to financial freedom while The Trio dedicate the time to finding her weakness.
Buffy's got bills ya'll. And apparently neither of the two adults living in her house are willing to contribute. And Giles tells Willow about herself.
Don't you just hate it when you bring your best friend back from the dead and they bring along a hitchhiker? AND don't thank you?!
You know when you finally finish a super difficult task, and once it’s done you are so relieved and proud of yourself? And you're like, woo, now I can rest! Imagine if your dumb ass friends undid it all because they thought you liked doing it so much the first time and you wanted to do it all over again. Yeah, that's Buffy right now.
It seems Willow is pretty inconsistent with the magic she can/will do. The Buffybot has come in pretty handy...did anyone stop and thank Spike for having it made?
We did it! Season 5 is a wrap! Join us as we discuss all of the ups and Dawns of the season and rank our favorite eps.
It's Buffy's 100th ep and OUR 100th ep! Let's talk about Buffy being ready to turn in her resignation, Spike dropping the ball, the gentrification of UPN and Ripper making a special appearance. Mucho love to everyone who has been with us on this journey.
We take a tour through Buffy's brain, Ben is Glory is Ben...ya'll, it's getting crazy.
Buffy has decided to hightail it out of Sunnydale and we give thanks to Charlie Weber for his Instagram.
Willow gets her panties in a bunch with insecurities and causes poor Tara to get brain sucked. That sounds much dirtier than intended.
Spike has a new toy! Buffy goes on a last minute vision quest! Warren needs to be on a list!
Back in March, we got our fellow Pittsburgh Scoobies together to enjoy Buffy shakes, talk all things Buffy, play some games and get some face time with our listeners.
Everyone is dealing with the aftermath of Joyce's death. Some in a healthy, sexy way (Giles), others in a get everyone killed and desecrate the memory of a wonderful woman way (DAWN).
We get in touch with our emotions as we begrudgingly recap The Body.
Misrepresentations, misunderstanding, slurs and allegations! After Spike lets loose his feelings for Buffy, he receives an even chillier response from his frenemies. Also, robots need love too?
Spike has got lady troubles in the worst way. Dru wants him the way he was, but he wants to be a better man for Buffy, who doesn't want him at all. And Harmony...just wants some gosh darn respect!
Dawn finds out the truth about herself and we find out the truth about James Marsters. We all need a moment to regroup, meditate and journal about our feelings.
Quentin brings his Watcher's crew to town, trying to stay relevant.
Willow and Anya are finally ready to have it out...sort of. There's a bunch of bickering over The Magic Box, but really, they are kind of just peeing around Xander.
It's the (3rd) most anticipated moment of this podcast. Riley's departure! Excuse us while we do the dance of joy.
Joyce has a male visitor in her boudoir.
How old is too old to trick or treat? Is Glory a gay icon? Can Riley get any sadder? Why is Spike snatching panties? The answers to these questions and so many more, in this week's episode.
Ok. Everybody relax. This is a Spike heavy episode. Spike is gonna give us a history lesson. We try to keep our cool but...I mean...the subway scene!
We get an entire episode dedicated to Tara and her family, only to find out, it's really for nothing.
We take a call from a listener, meet this new blonde, and find out exactly what the deal is with Dawn.
Yeah, there's something wrong with Riley's heart and he doesn't want to get it fixed because he's all insecure about his status with Buffy. BUT, what we're really here for, is the awesome scene, where James Marsters is lit like a fantasy.
