Episode 03: Ryan Zorzut liked Oz. Not the most flashy character from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Oz stood out for being a genuinely relaxed, positive character that Ryan likes to pretend left in better circumstances.

Episode 02: Chloe Wilson liked Maleficent. There is no Angelina Jolie in sight as Chloe talks about discovering Maleficent in an amateur production of Sleeping Beauty and how she realised 'bad' characters could actually be super cool.
