J and L Watches

Join us for the very last episode of the podcast, where we watch the Buffy movie with Jeremy in the room (also Walter but he is a terrible guest - being a dog, he didn't have much commentary to provide). Support the show

It is the final episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer! We never thought we would get here - except that we explicitly were working toward this for most of our podcast's run. Regardless, this week the gang takes the fight directly to the Hellmouth. It sure is fortunate that Angel showed up with the magical necklace thingy that saves the whole damn day. Support the show

In the penultimate episode of Buffy, Buffy gets the shiny Captain America axe (TM) and uses it to kill three ubervamps that seem to have snuck out of the hole under the high school. Also Angel comes back and they don't play the Buffy/Angel theme!Support the show

Omega joins us this week for a highly sexual Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode. The gang is doing the traditional end of the world orgy. Xander and Anya, Faith and Robin, Willow and a tongue ring, and even Buffy and Spike have a little cuddle party.Support the show

Buffy gets kicked out of her own house by a magical key who is only 3 years old, a bunch of friends who's selfish decision to bring her back caused this whole apocalypse, and some glorified extras playing potential slayers. Can you tell I don't love this one?Support the show

Lets give Faith a warm welcome back. Unless you are Buffy... or Giles... or Dawn. Well, Spike seems into it. Support the show

This week we get to learn a litlte more about Spike's checkered past. Mostly, that he has mommy issues. Shocked. Support the show

You knew it was coming ever since he got back on the show, its time for the Andrew focused episode. This is a fun one filled with self referential humor, vigorous vanity fan usage, early aughts camcorder technology, and some crocodile tears that save the world - sorta.Support the show

Buffy jumps through a portal created by metal characters and a candle. Willow's hair changes color. Spike puts his coat back on.Support the show

Xander helps his date tie him up and stab him. Buffy discovers her date is a plot device. Giles is upset. Support the show

Willow and Tara... I mean Willow and Kennedy go on a date. Giles finally is revealed to not be touching anything. We discuss what it would feel like to suddenly have new genitals. Good stuff. Support the show

Dawn gets hit with glowing egg funk and believes she is the next slayer. Meanwhile we learn that Just Leah used to be a synchronized swimmer!Support the show

Buffy thunderdomes a German vampire. Also, I wonder how Hillary Duff felt after Miranda moved in with the scoobies.Support the show

Potential slayers descend upon the Summer's household. Giles is back and is mysteriously aloof. There are a few lengthy speeches and yet more window repair from Xander. Support the show

Willow pretends to be evil to capture Andrew. Andrew pretends to be evil because he is stupid. Anya pretends to be evil to get Andrew to talk. There is a lot of pretending to be evil this week. Support the show

Anya shows us the finer points of seduction.  Spike is up to his old tricks - going out to night clubs and making bad puns with vampire ladies. Meanwhile, whats going on with our good buddy Giles!Support the show

Join us as we watch the Buffy writers try to do mental gymnastics to explain why Amber Benson is not in this episode. Also, Johnathan Woodward - follower of Zulu on instagram- appears on this episode!Support the show

RJ shows up and takes over Buffy the Vampire Slayer for a week. We get a return to the Sunnydale cheerleaders and realize Dawn really shouldn't be ... cheering. Also, back in season 2 Oz mentions that he knows he likes a girl when the theme from A Summer Place comes on. Just 5 years later they use that song during a love spell. Foreshadowing or just using a very cliche song? you be the judge. Support the show

A spider slaughters an Abercrombie and Fitch catalog and Buffy is real mad about it.  We spend the episode playing this is your life with a 1200 year old demon. I really want to watch a show that is just about Anya. Any takers?Support the show

Buffy begins her career as an unlicensed guidance counselor and a student dies in her first week.Dawn befriends one of Buffy's counseling students. Last time we saw a guidance counselor do that to their family member it led to the entire Locke and Key series. Support the show

Willow accidentally does a spell to make her invisible to her friends. That is really awkward for Anya and Spike - who can see her. Way to learn where you rank. I bet Dawn is relieved though. Oh also, there is a demon thing that gives her a really intense chemical peal. Support the show

Join us in our discussion of the first ever Buffy/Tremors Cross over event. Anya turned a woman's ex into the bane of Kevin Bacon's existence. Spike reveals he has a soul in an over-dramatically  stated monologue and Xander flirts very poorly. Josh and Leah discuss the wishes they would make with a Vengeance Demon in their corner. Support the show

We are back at Sunnydale high so of course we wind up trapped in the basement with three zombie ghost things. Just a typical Tuesday in Sunnydale! We are so excited to be doing the final season of Buffy and getting a chance to catch up with some of our favorite villains!Support the show

This week, Dodge finally dons the headband of shadows and comes for the gang. After three or four minutes with it, the Locke kids find a passed out Dodge who doesn't have the crown. They immediately determine the best solution is to call all their friends, drag this passed out person into the sea caves and throw them into the black door. Honestly, that sentence makes no sense even if you have been watching the show all season. Support the show

We are winding down on Locke and Key as Echo/Dodge/Well-lady/Lucas gets closer to the headband of shadows. Support the show

This week, we spend very little time talking about the episode. That is ok, thought we had a really good time. The episode is all about Nina drinking gin out of a novelty mug so you can forgive us this timeSupport the show

There is so much happening this week! We have kidnappings, sex with Dodge, fetal pigs, and death! What could we possibly add to make the episode more exciting?!Nina takes up gin drinking - but only in classy mugs. Kinsey tricks a killer into fighting her fear. Tyler sleeps with the gang's mortal enemy who he definitely has seen at least once but somehow doesn't recognize her until he sees her haphazardly abandoned key.Support the show

Join us for Locke and Key episode 5! In this episode, Kinsey casually uses her powers for evil. The gang discovers Rendell might not just be a sexy beard. Also, now the other kids hear the whispering keys too, that's pretty cool!Support the show

We learn that murdering the fear in your head makes it easier to make bold hair choices. Kinsey tells a muggle about the keys and Tyler learns he can learn anything with the head key and isn't currently a genius right now.Support the show

Join us for another episode of Locke and Key. In this episode, the Locke kids enter Bode's and Kinsey's minds. Bode recklessly uses a key to become a ghost - further proving that the Locke children are clearly don't need Echo to be trying to kill them, they are doing that well enough all on their own. More from Nicholas Brendon and a new Worst Witch minute.  Support the show

Join us for the second episode of Locke and Key, with a special clip from our Nicholas Brendon Cameo!It might be well after our 50th episode, but he's here just the same trying to figure out our incredibly odd names. This week on Locke and Key, Bode doesn't die in a bear trap even though that is absolutely what would have happened if this were in any way real life. Support the show

A show that wasn't made in the 90s?! What kind of podcast is this anyway?Join us as we watch Locke and Key. In this episode, JoshPrime learns that there is another woman he would turn away from homosexuality for. We get our first hatemail, and JustLeah discusses her hatred of Jenny Schecter. Support the show

Xander talks crayons and Willow changes her hair after a brief experimentation. JustLeah and JoshPrime discuss how they wish the season would have went and prepare for Locke and Key!Support the show

Also Willow drives a truck while standing on top of it and rips her way through a cartoon jail cell wall.Support the show

Tara and Willow are happy? We certainly can't have that. Join us as we relish Amber Benson finally making the credits and then proceed to be angry. Support the show

We casually introduced the concept that the Trio was secretly filming the gang early in the season. The payoff turns out to be that Spike and Anya had sex together and it was caught on tape. That was worth it. Anya kills it this episode, trying to convince everyone to wish ill on Xander. It seems she needs someone to make a wish on her behalf. It sure is lucky for Xander that Anya has such social anxiety that she couldn't possibly talk to anyone besides our main cast. Support the show

Is Buffy crazy? I am not grading on a curve, this is a legitimate question. Join us as we discuss the ambiguously ended Season 6 episode where Buffy is in an mental institution, maybe.Support the show

Join us for the wedding of the century! Anya and Xander's big day is finally here. We get to see what Anya will look like when she gets old (and also has a makeup artist gluing prosthetics to cover her aging face with a much stranger looking uncanny valley makeup). Spike brings a date that has so much dialog I can't believe she was able to remember it all. Support the show

Join us for an episode in which Riley "deliciously" walks in on Buffy and Spike. There were problems with the upload so I have written this description five times. You will deal. Support the show

Join us as we watch the gang lose their marbles after spending literally a day in their house. Personally, I just can't relate to a story about being stuck inside due to the irresponsible behavior of some people. Alternative title: This group would be terrible during a global pandemic. Support the show

Join us as we watch Buffy and Spike set on and under carpets. The Trio does some legitimately evil stuff. Dawn is mad at Buffy for wanting to turn herself in for a crime she believes she committed. Lots of reasonable emotions at play. Don't forget to share with your friends. Its the polite thing to do. Support the show

X-Ray joins us for the musical episode of Buffy! We sing, we dance, we discuss cat ownership. Give me something to sing about and hit subscribe! Xander sings about marital fears and avoids singing about all the murders he is currently committing - even though singing makes you be honest. Whatever. Support the show

It is a Halloween episode AND a Dawn episode. I don't know about you, but I am so excited I could pee. Dawn and Janice sure do have a weird scale to measure excitement. Anyway, Buffy fights a gang of teen vampires led by a creepy older dude because... that happened. Come watch Buffy with us!Support the show
