Superfans: Caitlin and Natalie
Newbies: Mitch and Kristen

Mitch is moving across the country... again. Yay Mitch, but also poor Mitch. Kristen is excited for her Detroit Lions to play the Seattle Seahawks in their playoff game. Go Lions! Caitlin is rooting against Kristen and her Lions, but Kristen totally understands. Caitlin's Falcons are off this week, but she's hoping for a Seattle win for an easier road to the Superbowl. Yay sports! Natalie hasn't been to American sporting events, but she's been to a couple of ballparks, including Comerica Park with the giant sculpted Tigers outside the park.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 5, episode 6, "Family":
-Synopsis
-We go on a bit of an Amy Adams tangent, but Caitlin brings it back around.
-So, Buffy knows what's going on with Dawn, and she tells Giles, but decides to keep it a secret from everyone else. This is going to go SO well. *note sarcasm*
-A little spoiler Netflix art discussion.
-Buffy moves out of her dorm and back home to keep an eye on Dawn. All the thoughts.
-Riley has some issues in this episode.
-What exactly does Riley have beside Buffy in his life?
-This is a Tara-centric episode! Yay!
-We finally know why she stole that powder from the spell all those episodes back!
-Mitch is still having issues believing that Tara isn't evil, but she is totally human with powers and yay for Willow not losing another lover.
-It may have been interesting if Tara was part demon, just to explore the dynamics of evil demons and non-evil ones.
-That Cordy line instigates a lot of thought from Natalie. Did Buffy's Joss show a little there?
-Oh Spike and his sex dreams. We are so here for it.

Angel season 2, episode 6, "Guise Will Be Guise":
-Synopsis
-That opening scene: Love it? Hate it?
-Gunn in the karaoke bar is basically the best thing ever.
-Angel goes to the swami to get help dealing with his spiritual quest.
-Did we believe that this swami-guy was the actual swami?
-He was such a good impersonator that we were totally sucked into his diatribe about Angel and his convertible as well as his comments on the clothes and hair.
-Were they planning to dig into Angel's sillier side on Buffy? It would have been a shame to miss him and all his floppiness.
-We dissect Angel's accents.
-Wesley plays one hell of a great Angel. We are so here for this.
-Angel's persona stands for itself. Wesley doesn't even have to do much to protect Virginia.
-Virginia's not-so-virgin-hood puts a kink in her father's evil plan.
-Angel needs a special prison for all the terrible humans. They may not have committed illegal acts, but they're just horrid.

Join us as we discuss Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 4, episode 22, "Restless," and Angel season 1, episode 21, "To Shanshu in L.A."

Superfans: Natalie
Newbies: Brittany, Kristen and Ariana

Fun Facts:
Danielle started watching Search Party, Selina went to a Monet exhibit, Kristen saw Moana, and Caitlin put up her Christmas tree, which initially scared Gage, but now he's sleeping under it like the present he truly is.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 4, episode 22, "Restless":
-Synopsis
-This episode ends season 4, but really feels like a fresh start for season 5.
-Initial thoughts.
-Selina has a lot of love for this episode and is always finding new things in the dreamy madness.
-The newbies had some trouble with this episode, but maybe that's kind of in its design?
-Did Joss intend for this episode to be rewatched to suss out all the hidden meaning?
-Willow's dream: She's getting ready to hit the stage in a crazy production of Death of a Salesman, starring Willow as current Willow.
-There's a lot of insecurity at play here, as Willow seems very concerned about who she truly is beneath the surface.
-Willow seems to be suffering from Impostor syndrome.
-Does Willow fear that she will revert to her high school self, or does she just always feel like that young, naive, inexperienced girl.
-Xander is a bit of a different story. His dream sequence was the longest, probably because he's got more going on in his head than the others at the moment.
-The playground scene where Giles and Spike are swinging on the swingset plays into the dynamics of Xander's role in the Scooby gang.
-While Xander has sexy dreams about Tara, Willow, and even Joyce, Buffy seems to have taken on a wholly sisterly role in his subconscious.
-However it could also be frustration about never being a romantic option for Buffy.
-Some brief Apocalypse Now flashes including a cameo from Principal Snyder.
-The show wanted to bring back more characters from the past, including Larry, Jenny Calendar, etc, but we only got a few cameos.
-Giles dream begins with a very childlike Buffy and Olivia pushing a pram.
-The double meaning of Giles' father-like devotion to Buffy and her also being the thing keeping him from living his life is on full display here.
-Giles performance in this episode birthed the idea of the musical episode in Joss Whedon's head, so we have that to look forward to.
-Giles is playing with his different roles, ending with him finding his watch, quite literally being the watcher.
-Buffy's dream starts with that unmade bed, reminding us of Faith's dream from a few episodes back.
-Tara played all the parts that they couldn't fill with former characters.
-There's a lot of meaning in Tara's line, "Be back by midnight."
-What was with Joyce being trapped in the wall? Maybe Buffy is feeling separated from her mother.
-Sequence of the First Slayer. We've heard others say that Slayers aren't supposed to have friends, but hearing that from the First Slayer forces you to think about what kind of role Buffy's Slayer-ness plays in all her decisions.
-Slayers and Watchers have been around since the beginning of time.
-Buffy's dreams get to the source of Buffy's power, and the role that her friends have played in making her who she is.
-The First Slayer not being able to speak for herself is problematic, and we had a few issues with Tara being the one to speak for her. Is she a reliable narrator?
-Each of the characters has their own internal struggle that came to the forefront in this episode.

Angel season 1, episode 22, "To Shanshu in L.A.":

-Twitter gives us lots of love for Lindsay, the seasons to come, and Restless.
