Tag: Season 5

Oh…..oh Taad(Riley). It’s been a rough couple of seasons for you and, man, I wish we cared more. If a potential heart attack can’t bring about our sympathies and support then I just don’t know what will. I would say “It’s not you, it’s us” but, let’s be real. Spike tries to kill us on the reg and I’m pretty sure we would all throw you in front of a speeding car to save his skin. I’m not saying this to hurt you I’m saying it because you are being an ass.

Buffy is back this week! Season 5 episode 3 is a Xander episode, well, it’s actually a Xanders episode, plural. The show walks some familiar ground with the “evil clone” schtick but it also tosses us a fun little curve ball by casting Nicholas Brendon’s (Xander) identical twin brother Kelly Donovan as said “evil clone”. It’s a cool idea and it works really well! Thanks for listening.

Howdy! It’s the second episode of season 5 and some big ch-ch-ch-changes are already rolling into our lives. On the big/good changes side of things, Giles bought a magic store from a mysteriously murdered old friend! On the big/weird side of things though, Buffy has a new sister who has a crush on Xander… Did Buffy jump the shark or is this season going to get weird? Both? Thanks for listening!

With season 4 in the rear-view mirror and season 5 stretching out in front of us, the gang dives back into the world of Buffy! And, who better to welcome us back to the vamp stabbing and the demon kicking than Count “The Dark Prince” Dracula himself? How exciting, we finally made it to the A-list. Thanks for listening!
