When a battle with a powerful demon restores Angel’s humanity, he’s given a chance to live a normal life and be with Buffy. But as the consequences of that choice become clear, Angel is forced to make an impossible decision that will change everything.

We've finally arrived at the most heartbreaking BANGEL episode in the Buffyverse.

Join our discussion and hear Courtney's reactions to Angel becoming human for a day, spending that day in bliss with Buffy, and finally getting a taste of the life they've both always wanted. Of course, it all goes to shit and our thoughts shift to the reasons why it can never be, how this adds yet another layer to Angel's endless suffering, and even theorize about what exactly the Oracles do in their downtime when people aren't showing up asking life-altering questions.

Listen to our thoughts on everything as we do our best to bring some fun to one of the most gut-wrenching episodes of Angel ever produced... one we unfortunately will never forget.. :’(

Does this one go down in Buffyverse history for you as a top episode!? How you do you feel over Buffy experiencing this but never being able to remember a moment of it.. and Angel having to remember every single drop of this day. Do you agree with Angels decision?

When a construction site uncovers an old Sunnydale mission, the spirit of a wronged Chumash warrior is unleashed, targeting those connected to the town’s past. As Buffy and the gang struggle to stop the attacks, tensions rise over how to handle the situation, and an unexpected visit from Angel adds another layer to an already tense Thanksgiving.

Join us for Thanksgiving in June with this mostly hilarious take on the holiday as we discuss the trivial aspects of cultural misrepresentation and why this episode hasn't aged particularly well over the years. We live for Spike's new dynamic on the series and weigh in on Angel's return to Sunnydale, along with his decision to keep the visit from Buffy. Hear us talk food, Anya's thirst for Angel, and just how gross Xander looks in this one..post dig site. 

What do you guys think of Angel returning for this episode? Are you pro thanksgiving or not? What are your fav thanksgiving food staples, what needs to be on your table!? Would you show up to watch Xander dig?

When Doyle’s estranged wife reappears, engaged to a seemingly charming man, old feelings resurface just as Angel uncovers a dangerous secret behind the fiancé’s family. As a bizarre bachelor party takes a deadly turn, Doyle is forced to confront his past and decide where he truly stands.

This week Doyle takes the spotlight.. hear our thoughts on receiving some much needed Doyle lore, how Cordelia is growing as a person since moving to L.A. and the silliness that is this demon families brain eating tradish! Not to mention Doyle having a wife, her soon to be husband 100% thinking about leaving her for sexy ANGEL along with our realizations of how Doyle and Angel mirror each other with their troubled lives. GRAB YOUR KFC, SHRIMP FORKS AND PORNOGRAPHIC PICTIONARY cause we made this one well worth the listen! 

What do you guys think about this extra layer added to Doyle and his backstory?

And the added oniony layers to Cordelia as shes opening up to the idea of Doyle romantically?

When Spike escapes from a secret government facility after being implanted with a device that prevents him from harming humans, Buffy and her friends must deal with his unexpected return. Meanwhile, Riley’s connection to a hidden military operation is revealed, hinting at a larger threat operating beneath Sunnydale.

A hoot and a half this one is.. join us as we theorize when tf this military operation began beneath Sunny D & if it’s just a drug cover up for dear old Joyce Summers. Also hear Courtneys new thoughts on Riley and the reveal of him being one of the commando soldiers we’ve been seeing on campus since the start of the season..along with him falling for Buffy, Spike being chipped and unable to harm humans and finally cheer with us over Parkers face getting hella what it deserved!

Do you guys enjoy this one? How did you react to the reveal of Riley and Maggie Walsh being part of the initiative, did you see it coming or were you as surprised as us on OG watch? Do you love what ill loosely call the fight scene with Harmony & Xander? Did you absolutely 100% positively over the moon LOVE the fact that Parker got decked in the face by Riley? What do you all think about spike becoming chipped and unable to harm humans?

“When a mob boss targets Kate Lockley for revenge, a mysterious sensitivity training seminar at the police precinct begins stripping officers of their emotional control. As the department spirals into forced vulnerability, Angel must uncover the supernatural force behind it before the situation turns deadly.”

A surprisingly strong Kate-centered episode, this week we resonate HARD with her daddy issues…for very valid reasons. We break down Kate’s complicated relationship with her father, the emotional walls built by policing and authority systems, and how the episode questions whether becoming hardened and detached is really necessary to “do the job.” We talk Angel being hilariously affected by this week’s magic mojo, Cordelia and Doyle trying to manage everyone’s breakdowns, and why this episode ended up being way more emotionally layered than expected.

What do you guys think about this episode? How do you guys feel about the emotional angle? And emotional Angel? Lol

How do you feel about Kate and whats shes dealing with and how her father treats her? Do you think theres validity in the way he’s shut down on her? Or is he just a plain and simple capital A- asshole. 

How are we feeling about Wolfram and harts presence resurfacing also and how continue to see they could be major players as villains on this series?

After sensing a connection with mysterious singer Veruca, Oz discovers she shares his werewolf curse, forcing him to confront a darker side of himself he can no longer control. As his bond with Veruca intensifies, Oz’s relationship with Willow begins to unravel, leading to a devastating choice that changes everything.

Why do all good things come to an end? This week we’re left heartbroken alongside Willow as we discuss one of Buffy’s most emotional season four episodes. We weigh in on our heavy, and definitely debatable thoughts surrounding Oz’s betrayal, the expansion of the werewolf mythology, and the surprisingly strong performance from Veruca despite all of us absolutely hating her. Courtney also shares her thoughts on saying goodbye to one of her favorite characters as Wild at Heart changes the course of Willow’s journey moving forward.

Let us know how this episode made or makes you feel!? Did you like the storyline with Veruca and how it played out? Do you agree with willows comment on this being like payback or was that in the moment heated comebacks? 

Do you think oz and veruca are eternal soulmates as delusional Paige moss insinuates? 

Overall, what do you think of Oz’s departure from the series?

“When Cordelia finally lands what seems like the perfect apartment at an unbelievably low price, her dream home quickly turns into a nightmare when violent supernatural activity reveals the place is haunted. As the team investigates the building’s dark history, Cordelia must confront both a vengeful spirit and her own lingering guilt about who she used to be.”

Join us this week as we break down the horror of helicopter moms, ghosts sharing apartments and how we feel about half naked Angel! This one was alot of fun to record and we get into the development of Cordelia and what seems like a hopeful fresh start to her life in LA along with dying over the little bits of her old self that still seem to linger. 

Is this a fav cordy centric/ Angel episode of yours? Do you like the arc we’re getting from Cordelia here and somewhat furthering of her character? Are you devastated at what Maude did to Dennis? Would you live in Cordelias apartment?

“Still struggling with Parker’s rejection, Buffy turns to drinking at the local campus pub. Unaware that the in-house headlining beer has been magically tainted..Buffy and a group of college boys are soon reverted into cave people, leaving her friends to deal with a very primitive version of the Slayer.”

Joined again for another “shitty” ranked episode we have Robbie with us to discuss why this episodes so good, but how BEER IS BAD! How it affects our characters, why we love Willow so much and we finally get to say goodbye to the Parker chapter of Buffys existence! This one features hairstyle hate, laughing at assault (don’t worry it’s just Parker) and a questionable "Robbies Conspiracy" theory as to what buffys drawing on her cave walls with?!? 

How do you all feel about this one? Is it a skip it type episode for you? Do you think its silly stupid fun? What do we think of seeing buffy stripped down to this primitive yet simple version of herself? Are we glad we will finally be LEAVING the Parker arc behind? Are we obsessed with Willows moment with him and calling him out? Would you have continued to beat him senseless with instead of a bonk on the head? I would’ve. Ha.

“Angel Investigations takes on the case of Melissa Burns, a woman being terrorized by her obsessive former surgeon, Dr. Meltzer. After discovering that Meltzer has learned how to supernaturally detach and control parts of his own body to spy on and attack his victim, Angel must stop a stalker who can literally be everywhere at once.”

Courtney and Brandon fall to pieces themselves over everything occurring this episode, from the stalking to the physical and mental violations.. we discuss the unfortunate situation Melissa is in and how it is sometimes a very real and terrifying instance people experience. Regardless, this one has a lot of laughable moments that keep us from being sent completely over the edge and we like that Angel is not only out here saving people, but is finally getting PAID!
