2x07&08 Lie to Me/The Dark Age
November 23, 2016 20:00 - 1 hourWell guys, We're back with some Buffy! And these two episodes came close to being good, but fell a bit short. The first one gives us a connection to Buffy's old life in LA- and old chum resurfaces, and somehow knows she's the Slayer. And while the actor playing Ford is lacking here, it's nice to see Buffy struggling and having some character growth. Ford is a moron, though- banking on the goodwill of Spike without a backup plan. And it naturally goes as well as can be expected. Plus Money get...
2x05&06 Reptile Boy/Halloween
November 16, 2016 22:01 - 1 hourI'm gonna keep this short, since I think we're all still reeling from everything that happened last week. There's a fraternity, and they are just as douchy as you imagine but they also worship and sacrifice to a rape snake. Yeah, that actually happened. Also, Halloween rolls around, and Cordelia *really* disappoints me with her costume. I had such high hopes for you, girl. Also, I get a little sad about Robin Sachs. Be well, and know that me and Bitches love you.
2x03&04 School Hard/Inca Mummy Girl
November 09, 2016 17:00 - 1 hourYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSS! Now I see why this show has such a following. It only took 15 episodes to get here! The show's strengths have always been in the tertiary characters- that's where the real stakes are, where the danger lies. The main characters aren't going to get iced, but Wheadon's brilliance relies in his ability to cast well and do more with less when it comes to characters. So now we have our standouts of the show- Spike, Inca Pr...
2x01&02 When She Was Bad/Some Assembly Required
November 02, 2016 21:00 - 1 hourOh look, they finally got some money to make this show! Buffy is back, and she's got a terrible attitude. Unfortunately, so is the anointed one. Honestly, I can feel the show starting to improve, but it sure is taking its time. So, to recap. Buffy is back, and she's pissed of and angsty about what the Master put her through, and apparently killing him isn't enough, She needs to spend an entire summer sulking and being a twat to her friends. We get our first black vampire (well, our second if ...
1x11&12 Out of Mind, Out of Sight/Prophecy Girl
October 26, 2016 16:00 - 1 hourBuffy Season 1 comes to a close. This first episode gave as both the feels, and not just because we both have giant crushes on Clea DuVall (Seriously, girl, what happened to you? Come back and get an Emmy!) I'm feeling more of the Joss Wheadon I know starting to emerge, but this feels a little rushed. We never really get to learn much about Marcie, other than she feels invisible because people ignore her. Whatever switch was supposed to get flipped and turn her into a psychotic killer. Cordel...
1x09&10 The Puppet/Nightmares
October 19, 2016 16:00 - 1 hourWell howdy, listeners! What the hell was this? Apparently Giles is in charge of the talent show, as the high mortality rate of Sunnydale means the regular drama teacher was probably eaten by a narwhal. This means there's quite a bit of cringe-inducing "talent" on display here, including Cordelia trying to sing. Poor Morgan, found a possessed puppet. But not possessed by a demon, but by a demon-hunter, cursed to be a perverted old man in a tiny wooden body with no dick. The real demon has eate...
1x08 I Robot, You Jane
October 12, 2016 16:00 - 1 hourWe have a special guest star on the show this week! Owen joins us to talk about the most ridiculous hour of television that ever happened. Buffy goes full insanity here. We have, in no particular order: Buffy's ridiculous outfits. Seriously it looks like she made them out of curtains. Who thought that cheap velvet was a good idea? Techno-pagans, which are witches who use the internet. Demons catfishing Willow. "I'm jacked in!" Giles (maybe?) getting his dick wet. Typed suicide notes. Scannin...
S1E06&07 The Pack/Angel
October 05, 2016 16:48 - 1 hourAnd we have a pair of Buffy episodes where people in Buffy's life can't exactly be trusted. Okay, let's dive in. Rancho Cucamonga has a zoo. Huh. And the elephant in the shot seems to not be having any of this white nonsense, because that was some epic side-eye. I feel you, girl. So a group of bullies who we've never seen before get infected with hyena spirit. Also Xander. And not the kid they were bullying, who is here for some reason. His haircut looks like a Q-tip. The "pack" ends up steal...
1x05 Don't Kill a Boy on the First Date
September 28, 2016 16:00 - 56 minutesI hate you all. For a show about a teenage girl that is good at killing vampires, it really sucks at episodes about vampires. Listen along as Money has serious issue with the questionable fashion choices of this show, and the magically appearing bra in between cuts. Also Money has a rant about another director this time- Kevin Smith! Yes, even 90's kids can figure out that he's bad at his job. There's quite a bit of digression in this episode, because the show just isn't that interesting at t...
1x04 Teacher's Pet
September 21, 2016 16:00 - 53 minutesThere's a giant fucking preying mantis in the school. That is a thing that happened. What even is this show? Listen along and hear the Bitches & Money origin story, too!
1x03 The Witch
September 14, 2016 16:00 - 1 hourOh hey, Money didn't hate this episode. Apparently Buffy wants a hobby, because killing vampires and not doing her homework leaves her with so much downtime that she needs a new hobby to keep busy. Giles isn't having it, because he's a voyeuristic man ho needs to control the life of the Slayer. Luckily he seems pretty on the ball when it's time to break a spell on Buffy, but still, there's a creepy vibe to him, Why does he have an opinion on Buffy's cheerleading status? So the twist is that A...
1x01&02 Welcome to Hellmouth/The Harvest
September 04, 2016 20:10 - 1 hourBuffy the Vampire slayer . . . . Holy cow . . . why do you people do this to me? Hi, It's Money, and I'm really starting to miss Alias right about now. This first episode is quite shaky. Like mayonnaise flavored jello. Really really white, not appetizing at all, and a foundation made of questionable choices. I'm feeling the pain that Bitches had- being the unspoiled one can really suck sometimes, especially when what you just watched was as unsatisfying as mayonnaise and ricotta spread on cru...
