The BBC rolled out Mark Gatiss and Steven Moffat\'s Dracula on New Year\'s Day; we Yanks endured it over the weekend, and Nick and the panel agree that this grimly joyless take on a careworn narrative needs SOMETHING. A modern-day setting, maybe? Mini bottle eps on every famous personage the Count has eaten? But it just seems like the creators didn\'t really want to be there...and as a result, we didn\'t either. Going Around The Dial is more fun, with looks at Dare Me, You, Magic For Humans, Spinning Out, and Dave\'s tips for pepping up a Frasier rewatch. Then Nick returns us to the cemetery with his Nonac presentation on Buffy\'s fifth-season premiere. Killing Eve won, Witcher what-about-ers lost, and Steal Meals were flyin\' in a very meta Game Time. Stake your claim to 2020\'s first all-new Extra Hot Great!
