Sunnydale Nation: A Buffy Rewatch Podcast

This week we are trying to patch things up with our friends as an evil mask turns the town to zombies while we discuss “Dead Man’s Party”! We’re talking the proud country of “Nigernia” (according to Hulu), whether Angel will just show up for a 30-second dream sequence in every episode from now on, how Buffy can just threaten to pack her bag and leave every time anyone is mean to her, the mask demon flashing the Scooby Gang, and Snyder refusing to shut up about his “tingly feeling”. We wonder if these evil masks are being shipped out on purpose, the difference between a gathering, shindig, and hootenanny, Joyce drinking schnapps while her house is turned into a kegger, and poor Jonathan being attacked when all he wanted was some chips.

This week we are wandering the mean streets of LA while we discuss “Anne”! We’re talking how secrets don’t make friends, Principal Snyder’s summer plans, bad-at-undercover Buffy popping up again, the hell dimension that makes you old, and that one weird guy that actually likes being in hell. We wonder how El Camino would have turned out as directed by M. Night Shyamalan, say no thank you to a goo baptism, cheer on the Comrade Buffy moment, and wonder what Pope Leo and David Boreanaz talk about together while they listen to our podcast.

This week we are pausing and looking back at Season 2 as a whole! We rank the episodes, read listener emails, play an Angel vs. Edward quote game, and resolve the life or death-stakes locker room bet. We discuss the parking lot graveyard, the unreadable Buffy font in the featurettes, the noble art of ranking things, whether we’ve reached the point of no return on Joyce, and Buffy posting on AITA.

This week we are stabbing our “it’s complicated” boyfriends while we discuss “Becoming II”! We’re talking signs that your Xander might be in distress, how Angelus would fare in Project Hail Mary, how we need much more of Joyce making small talk with Spike, who is paying for the torture team T-shirts, and Angel being just like a pet at the vet. We crumble at the sight of Willow’s Resolve Face, wonder where Angelus’ chainsaw went, appreciate Drusilla’s love for polyamory crimes, and think that every episode would be better if it ended with an “Oh, Giles!” freeze frame. Joyce quote of the week: Well, I just don’t accept that!

This week we are trying to prevent stone demons from ending the world while we discuss “Becoming I”! We’re talking how cool it would be to be a local expert on obscure artifacts, Catholic confession pop-up booths being very popular in 19th-century London, that Drusilla has missed her calling as an ASMR Youtuber, Angel carrying around handfuls of rats everywhere, and that this Acathla guy just looks like a stupid ogre from a children’s fairy tale. We name Angel’s memoir ‘A Century of Sadness’, think that Buffy might have been able to save Kendra if she hadn’t been slow-mo running, get uncomfortable at Giles fondling this sword, and propose Angel going on Queer Eye. It might fix him? Quote of the week: We’re going to make history… end.
Note: Remember to submit any Season 2 questions to us by September 27!
