David and Michaela have a jolly old romp with the opener for Buffy's fifth season, "Buffy vs Dracula". It's classic monster fun-times in Sunny D and everyone has dressed to impress. When a bad guy has an accent this thick you know it can't just be mind tricks.

Michaela and David muddle their way through a very divisive episode, the fourth season finale "Restless". Far from the snooze-fest this seems to be at first blush, the episode is actually filled with cryptic nonsense, Joss-style. We delight in the bonkers fashion going around and check in with our favourite IMDB reviewer to get the real scoop.

David and Michaela bicker over 'oo killed 'oo in the penultimate episode of Buffy's fourth season, "Primeval". Jokes and japes abound as the Scoobies solve everything in the season a little bit early, Adam's arm does something you must see to believe, and the show continues to push the limits of mortal fashion.

Michaela and David ruminate on the differences between book-smarts and people-smarts in "The Yoko Factor". This is an episode featuring the return of Mrs. Mug and waaaaayyyy too much "hacking" for comfort. There's crazy fashion aplenty on display here, though one of our hosts is far more on-board with a few of the crazier outfits than the other.

David and Michaela are so excited to see Oz again that they can almost forgive Adam's nonsense in this episode! As usual there's a healthy balance of fashion talk and actually discussing what goes on in the episode. We get to keep learning that turtlenecks will never die (nor will chokers) and this show seems determined to continue dressing all of its female characters in the brightest (and often pinkest) clothes it can.

Michaela and David go from the heady heights of Superstar to the lowest of lows with "Where The Wild Things Are". Yup, it's the episode where Riley and Buffy just have sex the entire time and yes, it's just as bad as that sounds. Marvel at an episode that defies a cohesive summary, an un-Teeksable episode that threatens to drive our hosts mad. But just because it's an awful episode doesn't mean there are no redeeming qualities; I mean heck, this is the episode that brought us Snake Pants! Pictur...

David and Michaela totally fangirl over one of their favourite episodes, "Superstar". It's Lil J's time to shine in Sunny-D and the whole crew has come out wearing their absolute most ridiculous stuff to celebrate. Enjoy bracelet madness, shawlwatch 2018 and some leopard print for old times' sake. They really just threw everything at this episode to see what stuck.

Michaela and David delight in the fact that commas don't last forever in the second half of this two-parter, "Who Are You?". Sarah Michelle Gellar knocks it out of the park in this one while showing off some fine Faith fashion, and we'll also chat a bit about auras, batoriums and where to find them, how boring/woke Adam is, all that good stuff.

David and Michaela find out that comas don't last forever! Share in their excitement to see Faith back, their perplexment as to how a coma patient has such a rocking bod after something like eight months, and their bewilderment at the clothing choices embodied by some of the people in this episode. At the end of the day does it really matter, though? Faith's back! Pictures on our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pg/buffyhellmouthpodcast/photos/?tab=album&album_id=990475081107222 Conta...

Michaela and David are truly baffled by what might be the strangest damn episode of Buffy yet, "Goodbye Iowa". There are just too many things happening in this episode to even talk about but special mention goes to Adam eating floppy disks like they're chips, gigantic scopes on guns, oddly plot-relevant bandanas, bizarre sweater necklines, the undying qualities of turtlenecks and Tony's admirable commitment to continuity in an episode that otherwise makes absolutely no sense.

David and Michaela talk about "The I In Team", an episode which truly defies having a good thumbnail. Things start to get pretty wacky in the Inquisition as this whole "Adam" business starts to heat up, and the Commandbros remain just as incompetent as ever. Also on the table to discuss: Tara and how she parts her hair, Buffy's incredibly questionable fashion choices and a very unkind picture we managed to get of Riley caught in the act.

Michaela and David have some fun with "A New Man", the midlife-crisis-iest Buffy episode around! Our favourite scamp is back in town, and his name rhymes with Blethan Blayne. Also on the docket for this week: shiny shirts, the validity of "fishwife" as an insult, monologues and when not to do them, Spike's chemistry with literally everyone.

David and Michaela chat about "Doomed", a.k.a. "the post-Hush crash".

Michaela and David have FINALLY MADE IT TO "HUSH" and gosh are they excited. Listen hard and you'll hear them talk about all sorts of stuff like the buttons they're watching to the shoulders best left uncovered and even the fakest of fake stun guns. Turns out Dave's memory has done it again and forgotten several of the most important parts of this episode, but that's what makes the rewatch all the more fun!

David and Michaela get into a tizzy over "Something Blue". It's wacky magic fun times in the Sunny-D, and everyone's wearing their silliest outfits and most insane hair to celebrate! Honestly, Buffy has done something pretty unprecedented with her hair and the rest of the cast also makes some questionable decisions. Riley continues to delight us with his inability to do up his goddamn buttons and a good time is had by all. Snippet from "Passions" of an orangutan fantasizing about a man: https://...

Michaela and David talk about "Pangs", which for some reason David thinks is called "Purges". Immortalized by the line "his penis got diseases from a Chumash tribe", Pangs holds more in store for our hosts such as the unexpected return of Asian Joe (not our name for him)! There's also plenty of absolutely BONKERS fashion from pretty much minute one, topped by whatever the hell Anya has going on.

David and Michaela get surprised by "The Inquisition". Well, maybe not actually surprised. But there is plenty of buttonwatch out there, in addition to Spike being a ghost, Mags having the best damn hair going and Harmony keeping it real while still being a vampire.

David and Michaela get pretty hammered while talking about the much-reviled Buffy episode "Beer Bad". Between slurring their words and forgetting what they were about to say there's still plenty of talk about fashion and hair.

Michaela and David have a chat about a funtime Halloween episode of Buffy, "Fear, Itself". Yeah don't worry, we talk about why the comma is there. Our hosts also talk about the minimal fashion that can be seen, the difference between a vest and a waistcoat (spoiler alert: neither of them know it) and delight in the opinions of Teeks, our favourite IMDB reviewer. The vest/possible waistcoat: https://www.facebook.com/buffyhellmouthpodcast/photos/a.910884902399574.1073741829.711008725720527/9451365...

David and Michaela talk about Buffy's fourth season episode "The Harsh Light of Day". Harmony's back in a big way, and brings with her a whole slew of interesting fashion tidbits to delight and distract our hosts. We'll also get to see a lot of Spike's stunt double, and get a bit of Angel cross-over action happening. And what's this? Perhaps we'll even get our first taste of Double Weerwolf, a situation foretold all the way back in the latter half of season two. Wow, what a wild ride it's been. ...

David and Michaela take a trip down memory lane to the first day of university/college/your post-secondary activity of choice. Buffy seems to have a lot of trouble with her first day, and it's fun to look back on a time when university-aged humans seemed smart. But our hosts don't let that distract them from noticing the bonkers stuff that's happening vis-a-vis clothing. Come on Riley, you thought we wouldn't notice that you only buttoned one button on your shirt? Or Sunday, you thought we would...

Michaela and David talk about the finale for Buffy's third season, "Graduation Day Pt 2"! Things are quite exciting, despite what may have been ruined last episode by our favourite IMDB reviewer Taylor Kingston. There's still plenty of good fashion to look at, and we can finally settle once and for all who was right about whether or not the Mayor was a giant snake trapped in a human suit (hint: it was Dave).

Michaela and David celebrate a landmark event-- another episode of Buffy that David kind of remembers. Go with them on a journey down the twisted, broken street known only as Memory Lane, and stay for all of the delightful chatter and natter about fashion and such. This episode has some notoriety due to its subject matter (implications and light discussions of school shootings) and how it was supposed to be shown just a few days after the Columbine shooting. But hey, we can still have fun, right...

David and Michaela cross over to the dark side for Buffy's third season episode "Enemies". Our hosts meet and mourn Skyler, the demon who has no name but is definitely not D'Hoffryn. They'll talk about all the fashion they can find, and boy is there a lot of it. They pour one out for both Alan and Jesse, both tragic figures taken in the prime of their lives. Most of all, they'll enjoy getting more evil Angel in the show, which is a rare treat indeed. Contact Us: bienvenue.hellmouth@gmail.com

Michaela and David find a metric ton of funny quotes while watching Buffy's third season episode "Dopplegangland". Turns out this is the episode that Dave thought "The Wish" was going to be, with all the be-corseted Willow implied thereby. There's plenty of other fashion to talk about too, including whatever ungodly outfit Willow's perpetrating against us and a super sparkly dress from Cordelia.
