\\nBuffy the Vampire Slayer season 5, episode 1, "Buffy vs. Dracula":
\\n-Synopsis
\\n-How do we feel about this sort of gimmicky episode? Was it fun or obnoxious?
\\n-Spoiler alert, everyone pretty much enjoyed it.
\\n-Do we think Dracula will be coming back at some point, whether it\'s as just an appearance or as the big bad?
\\n-Anya is now a series regular. FINALLY.
\\n-But are they bringing Anya into the "series regular" fold in order to kill her off?
\\n-So much Veronica Mars love on this Veronica Mars ReWatchable reunion.
\\n-Was Xander the MVP of this episode even though he was brainwashed?
\\n-"Death by vampire orgy." "There are worse ways to go." You go, Giles.
\\n-Buffy\'s bedroom scene was uncomfortable, but Sarah Michelle Gellar has a way of making the scene the perfect amount of erotic.
\\n-Dracula is here to continue the discussion of what it actually means to be a Slayer and who the Slayer is in terms of light and dark.
\\n-How do ideas and flashes of "Restless" play into this episode?
\\n-Thank goodness Giles isn\'t going anywhere because we would\'ve been devastated.
\\n-Buffy demonstrates how far she\'s come by realizing she needs Giles\' help and asking for it.
\\n-Will Giles always be a necessary character moving forward? Will he still be around at the series finale or will his purpose run out beforehand?
\\n-So Buffy apparently has a sister? But HOW?! Is there some sort of DC TV "Flashpoint" event going on here?
\\n-Danielle totally thought that the new demon from Angel was Spike after he came down with some sort of sickness. So there\'s that.
\\n-Favorite scenes (AKA Riley is so useless now.)

\\nAngel season 2, episode 1, "Judgement":
\\n-Synopsis
\\n-What significance do all of these children that have popped up have?
\\n-There have been quite a few seers popping up on Angel so far as well. Are we supposed to read into this?
\\n-Why Darla? Why now?
\\n-Does the "long game" mystery in Angel have substance? Why does it bother us so much?
\\n-Okay, so the demon karaoke bar is pretty much awesome.
\\n-The newbies are super into Green Spiky Guy. Like suuuuuuuuper into him. He\'d better come back.
\\n-The super fans are having a really hard time talking about the demon bar and Green Spiky Guy. Like, more than usual.
\\n-Is Cordelia less funny now that she\'s maturing?
\\n-So how much do we all like Gunn?
\\n-Angel can be a real boy again sometime and we see the promise of his immortality ending being so important to him.
\\n-Food talk time-out. Because of course.
\\n-Angel visits Faith in jail and it\'s actually a really touching scene.

\\nListener Feedback:
\\n-A listener asks for the newbies to give a dramatic reenactment of their reactions to the revelation of Buffy having a sister.
\\n-Karen and Danielle haven\'t seen the Lost finale, so they sadly can\'t relate to a listener\'s comment.
