Buffy S2E16 "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered" Review & Recap!

Buffy the Vampire Slayer S2E16 “Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered” encapsulates so much of what the series is: brilliant storytelling, memorable performances, quippy, stylized dialogue, great fights, thematic depth… but at the same time, toxic masculinity and entitlement played for laughs (and met with zero consequences) and perspectives that have NOT aged well.  Cordy dumps Xander on Valetine’s Day and – in true Xander form – he makes it everyone else’s problem, Amy’s gone into the family business, and Spike and Angel get glam makeovers.  We’d say more, but we don’t want to spoil the fun!  For the full effect (including episode clips and visual gags) check out our episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/PMHrd5yOwjQ  Major Slayage: Ket & Arik Rewatch Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
