Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 3, episode 5, "Homecoming":
-It was a little weird for Buffy to want to be Homecoming Queen so badly. It seemed like a step back.
-Normal Joe-Schmoe's probably know Buffy as that girl that beat up the football players one time.
-So, yeah... Willow and Xander. What the hell?
-We sort of all agree that if this would have happened a season or two ago, we could be on board. Just not now. Except for Karen who definitely sees why Willow might stumble a bit here.
-Slayer fest 1998! (Whoa time warp!)
-Buffy and Cordy bonding time is amazing.
-Scott breaks up with Buffy. Kind of yawny affair there.
-We gush over Angel a little. He's pretty doing Tai Chi.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 3, episode 6, "Band Candy":
-When we first heard about the candy, were we instantly suspicious?
-Caitlin was very excited to do this pair of episodes.
-First impressions of the mayor: He's such a weirdo.
-We were all definitely attracted to teenage Giles. Yowzers.
-Teenage Giles was pretty tame compared to what we've heard about what he was up to as a rebellious teenager.
-The adults were more caricatures of teenagers. Then again, the Scooby gang has grown quickly.
-Ethan is trouble, but a fun kind of trouble.
-Snyder the teen is so much fun. He's that joiner that you try to avoid so often in high school.
-Teenage Joyce was fun too. She seemed like a much more consistent personality as a teen than she sometimes comes off as in adulthood.
-The mayor needs to sacrifice babies to a demon. Wait... what?
-What do we think about Joyce and Giles? Would they work as a real couple?
