July 01, 2026 The Watchers' Rewatch episode 37: Faith, Hope and Trick
We meet one of the greatest characters in all of Buffy - that's right, Scott Hope is finally here! So is this guy called Trick and this new Slayer called Faith btw...

June 24, 2026 The Watchers' Rewatch episode 36: Dead Man's Party
Buffy's arrival back in Sunnydale is the catalyst for all of her friends to turn into douchecanoes and behave terribly. Except Cordelia, because she was already a bit of a douchecanoe. Also zombies or something, plus PatOvu Mobani! And beep effects for Pat. Only for Pat.

June 17, 2026 The Watchers' Rewatch episode 35: Anne
Buffy is still away from SunnyD, but in her absence Willow and gang are on hand to tackle any big boys... any VAMPIRES that they find. Buffy encounters ChanterLily, who will add more names to her... names. She'll also meet Ken, played by Carlos Jacott, who could anger even Gandhi.

Slightly dodgy audio from 25 mins in.

June 10, 2026 The Watchers' Rewatch Season 2 wrap up episode
Welcome to our season 2 wrap up episode, featuring special guest, friend of the show, and reason for the show's existence: Mark. Also featuring WAY too many mentions of *that* episode.

Join us for a top 5, another top 5 and an additional top 5 that I didn't tell Tish or Mark about in advance. Surprise 5! Now I feel like 'The Todd'...

June 03, 2026 The Watchers' Rewatch episode 34: Becoming part 2
Well the gang are up against it. Kendra's snuffed it, Willow is unconscious, Giles is unconscious, Xander is unconscious. Everyone is unconscious. Well, not everyone.

Angelus is trying to awaken AfalfACATHLA and ultimately it'll be up to our favourite slayer (no shade Kendra, the show is literally named after her) to save the day. But can Angel be brought back? Or will he forever be confined to the identity of Angelus and never have his own spin-off show that will last 5 seasons? Only time, or a quick Google search, will tell.

May 27, 2026 The Watchers' Rewatch episode 33: Becoming part 1
Season 2 comes to a head. I mean, it comes to a big rock that has a head in it. I mean the head is attached to a body and limbs too...

Look, there's a big MacGuffin. Angelus is gonna use it to swallow the world into hell (which hell? More on that later...) and that's bad. But it's ok, because he doesn't know how to do it, the good guys have more experts than the bad guys and there's a surplus of good guys. This'll go well, right? Right? ..... right?

Also, an early apology for audio quality that's gone wonky. One of our primary recordings was lost so we used a backup and it's not great.

May 20, 2026 The Watchers' Rewatch episode 32: Go Fish
Something is after the successful SunnyD High swim team! Even worse, the official name for these beasties is "Gill-Monster" which just leans a little too much into nominative determinism for me. Either way, Buffy will have to protect the swim team, which sometimes means basically stalking them. Also it sometimes means breaking a swimmer's nose. Honestly, it would've gotten even worse for him if she hadn't.

May 13, 2026 The Watchers' Rewatch episode 31: I Only Have Eyes For You
The students and staff of Sunnydale High are reenacting a traumatic past event - because they don't have enough present-day trauma, obvs. Will this deathly cycle repeat ad infinitum? Will Buffy be able to handle her own trauma? Will Xander ever know the love of a woman? You know, in a full body sense?

May 06, 2026 The Watchers' Rewatch episode 30: Killed by Death
Buffy is unwell, to the point where she's hospitalised. She then sees something so freaky that it still makes me borderline psychologically unwell - the creepiest-looking monster we've seen so far in the Buffyverse (I know, you'll just have to wait till season 4 episode 'Hush' for *them*). Buffy decides, as she usually does, that violence is probably;y the answer. And as usual, she is correct!

April 29, 2026 The Watchers' Rewatch episode 29: Passion
In one of the most emotional episodes of the show, Buffy must contend with the culmination of Angelus's sadistic games. Meanwhile, Jenny is working on a way to get herself back in Buffy's, and Giles's, good graces - by restoring Angel's soul once more.

As a bonus, we are joined by Raging Demon of the Kommand List podcast. Check them out for all of your fighting game commentary, as well as chat about how dodgy the physics in the film 'Dead or Alive' are (seriously, *how* do those homing message shuriken things even work?)
