Welcome to the Hellmouth Weirdos! Your favorite Morbid hosts Ash and Alaina are branching out from true crime and heading to Sunnydale for the ultimate Buffy the Vampire Slayer Rewatch podcast!

Join them each week as they slay their way through the series, episode by episode, re-watching, and watching for the very first time.

A new villain is in town and she's sexy, she's cute, she's popular to boot; but a foreign monk isn't too thrilled with her- maybe it's the torture of it all?

It's another Angel crossover episode! Haven’t watched Angel yet?? No worries, we’ve got your back! We fill you all in on all the deets you need to know. We start with Buffy rolling into New Angelus after the chaotic events of Buffy: Season 4 Episode 8 (Pangs) ready to have a conversation about Angel’s pathetic invisible man act in Sunnydale. While she’s there, an OSHA violation of demonic sorts turns Angel mortal, leaving him and Buffy to figure out what that means for their relationship. We know there’s lots of brooding involved!

Rewatch, listen & laugh as we talk about why Cordi's hair is so sleek, oracles from Coachella, and one of the most heart-wrenching scenes that leaves us both on the verge of tears (props to Sarah for that one).

There’s a full moon, and we all know what that means for our favorite werewolf Oz! To prevent him from hurting anyone, he locks himself in a cage…with that bitch Veruca who — SURPRISE! — is also a werewolf. Shit hits the fan when Willow walks in on a naked Veruca canoodling her beloved Oz. Luckily, Buffy and Xander hurry to comfort Willow while she decides if she should curse Oz and Veruca to a life of misery forever. The silver lining (if there even is one at all): Buffy is killing it in Walsh’s class!

Ugh, our girl Buffy still cannot get over that fuckboy Parker Abrams! In an attempt to drown her sorrows, she turns to many MANY pints of beer with her new asshole “friends” at the pub where Xander has picked up bartending. But of course, shit always gets weird in Hellmouth — Buffy starts speaking in monosyllabic sentences and stealing sandwiches out of her classmate’s hand. So naturally, it’s up to Xander and Giles to step in and help figure out wtf she’s doing. Meanwhile, Oz and Willow deal with their own Veruca-related problems. 

Rewatch, listen & laugh as Ash gives Buffy advice on how to get over Parker, we cave and admit that Xander looks hot, and we talk about the socioeconomic beer of our dreams! And don’t forget to follow us at @the_rewatcher on Instagram for special bonus content!!

It’s our first Halloween at UC Sunnydale, and while most of the gang is psyched to tear it up, Buffy can’t stop brooding over that pompous bitch blossom Parker Abrams. Giles lets Buffy take the night off giving her no other choice but to fifth wheel at a haunted house frat party. But this party isn’t like any other one, this one gets straight up demonic and isn’t what anyone had in mind for Halloween!

With the drama of last week resetting back into the status quo, Buffy FINALLY realizes that Spike LOVES her, and decides that she is firmly Anti-Blondie-Bear!

The Hellmouth is heating up this week! Buffy ignores ALL of Parker’s red flags and winds up in his bed, Anya is sooo (not) over Xander, and Harmony has edged out Drusilla in the highly-coveted competition to be Spike’s lover. Then, things become a different kind of tense when Spike gets his hands on the notorious Gem of Amara — a ring that grants vampires invincibility. Uh Oh!

 We’ve all had a roommate horror story (it builds character, right?), but Buffy’s might give yours a run for its money. From clipping her toenails in bed to passive aggressively labeling everything in the fridge with her name — even each. individual. egg. — Kathy is really testing Buffy’s patience. As Buffy’s anger toward Kathy intensifies, Xander, Oz, and Willow start to think Buffy has gone a bit too far. After all, we’ve all had less-than-ideal roommates, but there’s no need to go all evil Buffy on her, right?! Or is something Hellmouth-y afoot?!

Welcome to UC-Sunnydale, where the professors verbally assault you, vampires kill your potential boyfriend, and your crazy roommate makes un-human noises when they sleep. While Willow and Oz are thriving in college and living for all the new knowledge thrown their way, our girl Buffy is struggling. She’s facing self doubt and a new foe in uncharted territory, and she can sense some serious evil lurking around campus.

 It’s the season 3 finale, and what a finale it is! We pick up right where we left off: Angel is dying while simultaneously professing his allegiance to Oz, while Faith’s broken body gets driven away from Buffy, who stares in shock as her plan to cure Angel is ruined. Distraught, Buffy decides it’s time to offer up her OWN blood to cure Angel, but did she forget the Ascension is in less than 24 hours?!

With the help of some prophetic dream sequences — and mere hours left before The Ascension — the Scoobs devise a plan to ensure that at least most of the senior class will survive until dinnertime. But will it work?!

Rewatch, listen & laugh as we talk about uncomfortable make-out sessions, suffer through another #MisophoniaMoment, and pour one out for a few of our Sunnydale friends!

 With the Ascension AND graduation looming, the Scoobs are in over their heads! Willow gets down to business with Oz (yes, that IS a euphemism!), Xander thinks his time is up, and Anya has a SICKLY reaction to the world of romance.

On top of all that, a professor’s murder sends Buffy and the gang into a tailspin, but in the back of all their minds, an equally pressing situation emerges: what color gown should they wear at graduation?!?!

Rewatch, listen, and laugh as Ash and Alaina reminisce about Chi straighteners, Ash’s hair sorcery, and Alaina’s connection to Anya’s ways of expressing emotion.

It’s prom, and everyone is excited to get gussied up and party like it’s 1999…mostly because it is! Well everyone except Angel, who has allowed the mayor's seeds of doubt to take root and has developed serious cold feet about his relationship with Buffy.

Unfortunately, the Hellmouth hath no fury like a fragile man scorned. King of the InCels, decides to take his revenge on the senior class prom by unleashing hellhounds who have, of course, been brainwashed to attack people in formal wear. 

Rewatch, listen & laugh as we talk about Joyce falling off the #goodchoicejoyce wagon, Alaina’s Maul Madness, and Ash’s new firm boundary: no galumphing!

When Buffy gets accepted into Northwestern, #goodchoiceJoyce loses her damn mind, Giles is a proud zaddy, and the Scoobs are super impressed. However, Buffy realizes that moving away for school may not be the best idea considering her Hellmouth slayer responsibilities. 

Determined to strike the first blow at the Mayor’s doorstep, Buffy and the Scoobs go rogue from Wesley Wyndam Price’s dumbass plan. They figure out a way to steal the Mayor’s thunder and embark on a mission that feels more action-packed superhero movie than Buffy episode.

Rewatch, listen, and laugh as we talk about our unwavering love for Oz, Faith’s complete lack of negotiation skills and Willow’s ultimate geniusness. Plus, Alaina reveals a secret talent she’s kept hidden from us all along!

When Buffy slays a telepathic gremlin-like demon, she becomes infected with the ability to hear everyone’s thoughts. It’s GREAT…at first, but of course, everything nice comes with a price. As the powers intensify, Buffy overhears someone plotting a mass murder at school but is unable to determine the source before she’s forced to isolate to protect her sanity.

And there’s more: Buffy gets a bit of an ego boost from guys who think she’s GORGEOUS (even if some make her feel like she needs to take a lava bath afterward), she’s able to cheat off of that bitch Nancy, AND she gets to make Wesley Wyndham Price squirm! WOW!

Rewatch & listen as we talk about Guillermo del Toro, new band names, and contact sports — namely cheerleading.

When a demon book trader tries to pawn The Books of Ascension to Buffy and Faith, trust between the two of them goes out the window. Faith shows her allegiance to the mayor by playing the role of demonic hitwoman and trying to seduce Angel into giving up the ghost…literally.

Adding fuel to the fire, Buffy sees Faith and Angel in a rather ~intimate~ moment and obviously begins spiraling hard core. 

Watch, listen & laugh as we talk about sexy fake French films and Leprechauns from Southie. Oh and by the way, Angel and Faith DEFINITELY fooooked!

When Buffy spills the beans about our little Dawn-key, the Scoobs have some serious problems adjusting to the news – or not broadcasting the news in public like they work at HIPPA Violation Memorial Hospital. Dawn sets her focus on continuing the tradition on awful Buffy’s birthday by B-and-Eing into the Magic Box and finding out about her true identity!

Rewatch, listen & laugh as we talk about Glory and Ben the Negative Nine Year Old Intern’s complicated relationship, Ash and Alaina launch a new segment, and Mikie has an existential crisis.

This week is a tough one for Willow. First, she's getting forced to tutor an entitled douchebro by Snyder, then, she’s ordered to hack into the mayor's files by Giles, and worst of all, she’s left out of fun plans because she's so reliable and BORING! (Balthazar's wording, not ours!)

Determined to do SOMETHING for herself, she teams up with Anya to practice a lil witchcraft, but of course shit doesn't go according to plan and they accidentally summon Vampire Willow from the Wishiverse who causes all sorts of confusion and chaos in Sunnydale. 

Rewatch, listen & laugh as we fangurl about how FUCKING incredible Alyson Hannigan is, check in to see if the Xander character rehab tour of 1999 is working, and we get a brief glimpse of Granny Deliah! And don’t forget to follow us on Instagram at @the_rewatcher for special content!

After murdering Deputy Mayor Mayohands, Faith continues on her path to ruin, being a complete asshole to Buffy (no more #Fuffy moments for these two!) The girls’ new watcher sends them on a mission to track down the killer (awkward!) and Buffy continues to plead that they get Giles' help but Faith wants no part of it. 

When Detective Mustache closes in on Buffy and Faith as suspects, all hell breaks loose. Faith pulls some SERIOUS fuckshit, Xander clumsily admits that he and Faith fooked, and Buffy attempts to backtrack on being a strong contender for 'Shittiest Friend of 1999'.

Rewatch, Listen & Laugh as Ash, Alaina & Willow give Buffy some tough love, Alaina has an Elle Woods moment, and the ladies do some free promotion for Bass Pro Shops.

When the new watcher Wesley arrives in Sunnydale, Buffy chooses to match Faith's 'fuck it all' attitude and gets a taste of the wild side by following Faith’s lead for a change. Unfortunately, a gaggle of assholes in Renaissance garb are in town, signaling the reemergence of a nasty ass demon named Balthazar. Intent on snuffing them out, AND living it up, Buffy and Faith tear up the town, recklessly endangering themselves, and anyone else who gets in their way.

Rewatch, listen & laugh as we witness Ash's allegiance to Machida change, pick whether things are #Fuffy or #Baith, and chat about poor Granny Delia's missing kitchen tools.
