Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 1, episode 1, "Welcome to the Hellmouth," and episode 2, "The Harvest":
-Ariana thinks Buffy’s hair is really great.
-Kristen is so ready to embrace the camp.
-Angel is basically Derek Hale (from MTV’s Teen Wolf).
-Let’s discuss the character names.
-So, is this a drama or a comedy? We need to talk about Buffy’s wacky sense of humor, especially in the middle of a battle sequence.
-The Bronze is a character all its own.
-Slayer lore: This is just the beginning.
-Why is there only one Slayer?
-What is up with the Watchers?
-Why can’t the Slayer just have babies and multiply the number of slayers?
-We prefer our vampires to look normal, and then start eating us, thank you very much.
-Karen has a strange affection for the Master. We all try not to judge her.
-What is Angel's role? He has to be important since we get Angel later, but what is his deal?
-We go off on a little rant about how these "high schoolers" don’t look like high schoolers, and how television tends to do that.
-How does Cordelia just forget that she was kidnapped by vampires?
-How do we feel about her downplaying it for herself?
-She would rather blame the whole thing on a drug high than trying to figure out the real circumstances.
-Why do we need a Slayer? These vampires seem to be easy to handle.
-Motto of the day: Just keep watching, just keep watching. What do we do, we watch, watch.
