You know how many people look back on S6 as too much of a slow wade through misery? I think this chunk of episodes is a big part of why. While there's one episode that I actually really like, I'm not a huge fan of the last several installments of this batch. It does [...]

It's almost time for the Buffy Musical and I'm fairly antsy to get there after all these years, so let's not waste any more time. Previously on Buffy the Vampire Slayer: A Retrospecticus… All the Way Written by Steven S. DeKnight / Directed by David Solomon Where is this very small witch girl’s guardian? [...]

Chewy candies are now seemingly ubiquitous. So it is [...]

I am currently stuck on any version of the Murdaugh family's tragic fall. It's like mental junk food. But what does this say [...]
