We’re split on The Puppet Show. Creepy puppet masterpiece? Or the weakest Buffy episode ever? We talk Snyder’s debut, Sid’s questionable jokes, Cordelia being Cordelia, and that rushed ending. Plus Buffy reboot theories and parallel-universe chaos. Comment below: Do YOU love or hate this episode?

We’re talking I Robot… You Jane, the episode where Willow gets catfished by a literal demon, Giles meets Jenny Calendar for the first time, and everyone somehow trusts teenagers to scan demon books unsupervised. We chat about Moloch’s creepy control, Dave’s shocking death, Buffy’s three different birthdays, Willow’s emotional maturity, and that instant Giles–Calendar chemistry. Plus demon-in-the-computer metaphors, 90s tech chaos, and why this episode is secretly a lot darker than people remember. Tell us your favourite moment below!

This week we rewatch Angel, the episode where Buffy learns her mysterious crush is actually a 241-year-old vampire with a soul. We talk Darla being messy, the diary misunderstanding, Joyce getting attacked, Angel’s tragic backstory, and how this episode kicked off one of TV’s most iconic romances. Oh, and yes… we fully discuss the Angel Look. Come chat with us in the comments!

No gore, all atmosphere. We break down “The Pack” — the bullying metaphor, Flutie’s offscreen fate, that awful attempt on Buffy, and Xander pretending he “can’t remember.” Plus Willow love, library training, and a little reboot news. Share your favourite line!

We’re back with Never Kill a Boy on the First Date — the Buffy episode we always zone out during but secretly enjoy. We chat about Buffy’s awkward date, why Owen might be the most forgettable crush ever, Giles’ watcher backstory, and that “if the apocalypse comes, beep me” moment. There’s also some reboot talk, outfit love, and Xander’s Tweety Bird watch!

Come hang out, laugh with us, and share your thoughts below.

Sema and Sally break down Season 1, Episode 4 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, “Teacher’s Pet.” They talk about the creepy (and honestly ridiculous) She-Mantis plot, why this episode feels so uncomfortable to watch now, and how it handles student–teacher predatory behaviour in a way that’s both dark and silly.

They get into Xander’s fantasy of being Buffy’s hero, why he actually doesn’t understand who Buffy really is, and how Willow sees him way more clearly than he sees her. They also talk about Buffy’s first real spark with Angel at the Bronze, that jacket moment, and why early Buffy/Angel still works.

Plus: Dr. Gregory being the first teacher to believe in Buffy, Giles being dramatic, the monster design, and why this is one of the Season 1 episodes they usually skip.

In this episode, Sema and Sally break down Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 1, Episode 3, “Witch.” They chat about the body-swap twist between Amy and her mom, how the show explores teenage pressure and parental control, and why Joyce actually deserves more credit as a single mum. The Buffy Babes also laugh about Cordelia’s one-liners, Xander’s questionable behavior, and how Willow’s confidence starts to shine. They wrap up with fun facts about the episode, surprising Buffy trivia, and their thoughts on Sarah Michelle Gellar’s recent comments about the upcoming Buffy reboot.

Sema and Sally break down Buffy the Vampire Slayer Episode 2, “The Harvest.” From Buffy’s battle with Luke to Jesse’s shocking turn and the Master’s underground rise. The two discuss how this episode cements the show’s tone, forms the Scooby Gang, and introduces the classic tension between Buffy’s slayer duties and her high-school life. They also share how watching it now, as adults (and mothers), changes how they relate to Joyce and the early themes of growing up and responsibility.
