Episode 12 is strutting into town like a fresh piece of Watcher. What do stables of psychotic vampires have to do with the perverted fantasies of old British men? What episode does Hannah compare to a classic Twilight Zone episode, and Preston calls a piece of throat-fucking moralizing? Which villain is compared to both Jabba the Hut, and a certain part of the female anatomy? Where does possibly the biggest difference in The Heroes' opinion to date come in? And who wants a root beer? That, or pa...

Episode 11 stumbles into town, and there are crazy bitches, demons, lovesick vampires, and unspeakable evils walking about. Is the Glove of Lagos the Powerglove or the Orgasmoglove, and why is it so baaaaad? Which three characters show up unexpectedly? How sexy is Doppelganger Willow? What does the magic of snow Jesus Christmas have to do with anything? And which of these episodes ranks as a consistent top five of Buffy for both Preston and Hannah? Plus, Will Ackerman makes a guest appearance, a...

Episode 10 enters the fray, and along with it a new Slayer! Where does Hannah think some lesbian undertones are being added to the show? Who is Preston squeeing over this time? Which minor character do they believe consistently gets the shaft in any episode in which they appear? And which of these episodes are The Heroes hailing as one of their all time favorites? Down some Hulk Juice and Kahlua as Hannah and Preston cover "Faith, Hope & Trick," "Beauty and the Beasts," "Homecoming," and "Ba...

It's the ninth episode, and the second season of Buffy ends not with a whimper, but with a punch to the gut. In this episode The Heroes debate the relative merits of Xander being a dickbag, discuss how Buffy loses and then subsequently gets her groove back, and perhaps the greatest alliance of this show to date is formed. Oh, and also, zombie kitties. Preston and Hannah top off season two with "Becoming" (parts 1 and 2), and then skim the surface of season three with "Anne" and "Dead Man's Party...

Big Damn Heroes, what's up?! This episode, numero ocho, Whedon's got the episodes, Hannah and Preston got the reviews, there's spine-snapping, and fish face-suckers, and Freddie Kindestod, and paralyzed genitals, and all sorts of wacky shit! If you like you some David Boreanaz and Tony Head killin' it (literally), filler with semi-meaningful moments, and an episode (or 10 minutes of another) that'll blow you right away, you're in the right place. Also, what the hell is with the copy before this,...

It's lucky episode seven, and The Heroes hit the part where things get, in their words, "pretty fucking awesome." With episodes like "Surprise," "Innocence," "Phases," and "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered," it is suggested that the ratings be cranked to 11 for the awesomeness that happens within. Why isn't Buffy's PMS-evil-dar working? Is Oz incredibly high, or just superchill from living on the Hellmouth? Join Hannah and Preston this week to find out!

It's episode six, and The Heroes believe that God has a plan for all of us. That includes South Park, vampire kuru (or is it chronic vampire wasting disease?), and also John Ritter. This week, Hannah and Preston cover "What's My Line" (parts 1 and 2), "Ted," and "Bad Eggs." Stop on in and believe.

It's episode five, and it's The Heroes' shortest episode yet. Today, they cover "Reptile Boy," "Halloween," "Lie to Me," and "The Dark Age." Why are they so tired? Is Hannah running the Conspiration 5000? Why is Preston so gleeful over yet another potshot from a certain ginger Brit? Come on in to find out!

The Heroes kick off the second season with this episode, and it's already coming up kittens and roses and other such fluffy things. "When She Was Bad," "Some Assembly Required," "School Hard," and "Inca Mummy Girl" are the name of the game. Preston postulates and creates a few interesting crossovers, the ongoing Earth-2.net International Throw-Down escalates yet again, and Hanners and Preston kind of fangirl- / boy-out. What is the cause of such joy? What is Will Ackerman's new segment "The Zepp...

In this episode of Big Damn Heroes, The Heroes wrap up the first season of Buffy with "The Puppet Show," "Nightmares," "Out of Mind, Out of Sight," and "Prophecy Girl." In this episode, Preston's a dick, both of them keep mistaking bit actors for other people, and Hannah can kind of believe invisibility, but can't believe the mechanics of it. Tune in and listen to them finish up the first season, and lay the way for the next.

In their second episode, The Heroes may already be quitting the show. And with episodes like "Never Kill a Boy on the First Date," "The Pack," "Angel," and "I Robot, You Jane," who can blame them? Why do Preston and Hannah keep talking about comics? Why does Xander rival Cordy for The Heroes' hatred? And just why, God, why? Listen and find out if they make it to another episode.

In their first proper episode, The Heroes dive into the Buffyverse with the series' first four episodes: "Welcome to the Hellmouth," "The Harvest," "Witch," and "Teacher's Pet." Are the lack and inconsistency of certain effects issues of not really having a budget, or of censorship from the network? Just exactly how bitchin' are Giles and Willow? How many times did Cordelia almost die in these episodes, and why would it have been a good thing if she had? And who will we be seeing again from thes...
