This week Emily and Hannah are talking about the return of one of Buffy's best characters - Faith! She's out of her coma, real pissed at Buffy, and taking it out on the Scoobies in Buffy 415, "This Year's Girl"

This week we're chatting about demon possession, terrifying children, and how cool Angel would have been with a bad-ass Irish priest occasionally weighing in on the demon hunting in Angel episode 114, "I've Got You Under My Skin"

This week we're chatting about everyone's favorite corn-fed comando losing his mind, the death of Maggie/Professor Walsh/Mother, and the tragedy that is the Season 4 'villain' Adam in Buffy episode 414, "Goodbye Iowa"

This week Buffy is learning how The Initiative gets things done (or doesn't), Riley fools himself into thinking he can one day beat Buffy in hand-to-hand combat, and we muddle through an anti-climactic villain death in Buffy 413, "The I in Team"

This week we're chatting about another problematic Angel episode involving Angel (sort of) inserting himself into the business of intergalactic refugees, California-vibes Sean Gunn, and very poorly addressed female genital mutilation in Angel 113, She.

This week we're talking about one of Angel's more problematic episodes and Cordelia's (first) mystical pregnancy. Women continue to be punished for having sex, Angel and Wesley are actually decent humans, and we talk about how pregnancy IS NOT body horror in episode 112, "Expecting"

Angel is having vivid dreams that he's committing Angelus-level atrocities but turns out it's just Jeremy Renner. We're confronting our sire-issues, trying to figure out what Wesley is doing in LA and swooning over Cordelia's personal development in Angel ep 111, "Somnambulist"

This week another earthquake shakes Sunnydale and Buffy is convinced (not unfairly) that the apocalypse is coming...again. Riley and Buffy have several unconvincing arguments about their relationship, and most importantly Spike wears a Hawaiian print shirt this week on ep 411, "Doomed"

This week we're chatting about one of the best Buffy episodes with the creepiest baddies and the show's only Emmy nomination. We're exploring some early 2000s fashion choices, why The Gentlemen are so damn creepy, and what makes a lemon bunt cake empowering in Buffy 410, "Hush"
