Episode #214: 'Buffy' 6x01 and 6x02 – My Demon Dad

Join us as we discuss Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 6, episodes 1 and 2, "Bargaining Part 1" and "Bargaining Part 2."

Superfans: Karen and Maj
Newbies: Kristen and Ariana

Fun Facts:

Ariana has caught whatever bug Brittany and Natalie had last week, and she is totally blaming them for her illness. Maj is still into photography, and she sent Karen a picture of some deer which is totally cute. Kristen recently got an ARC for a new book where the author, Andrea Thome, takes the pictures for her own covers and Kristen is really amazed by that process (You can see the stunning photos/covers here.). Karen had an awesome dream-mare where she got to hang out with Eminem and the Ninja Turtles, but they they killed Donatello. How rude!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 6, episodes 1 and 2, "Bargaining Part 1" and "Bargaining Part 2":
-Synopsis
-Willow and her telepathy is a little creepy, no?
-We weren't all convinced that was the Buffybot, but we knew it wasn't Buffy.
-So, apparently Giles, and Anthony Head are not in the opening credits
-How scarred would we be if Giles was gone permanently? Very.
-We would totally watch a show called "My Teen Moms."
-Willow is doing her best for Dawn, even if it isn't the healthiest way to raise a teenager.
-The Buffybot is still around, and they are all dealing with how she isn't Buffy in different ways.
-Spike has taken Dawn under his wing, and is doing his best to protect her.
-We continue to be amazed at all the emotions that Spike is capable of.
-And now we dive into the Willow of it all.
-Willow knows that Giles, Spike, and/or Dawn would probably try to stop her from resurrecting Buffy, so she doesn't tell them.
-No one stops her, maybe because they are afraid of her?
-Willow, in her grief, believes that since she can bring Buffy back, she should.
-This is definitely not true.
-We all agree that if they would have dug up Buffy and looked her in the eye (or eyeholes),
-Poor Buffy wakes up in her coffin, and we are curious as to how she will deal with that reality with the group.
-Will she yell at them for making her dig herself out of her own grave?
-"Is this hell?"
-Where has Buffy been this whole time?
-We really appreciate that Dawn is the one to talk Buffy off the ledge.
