\\nFun Facts:
\\nNatalie is having internet issues and she is so over it. More of a not-fun fact. Kristen had a night of nine-year-old fun with her niece last night and it was just what she needed. Ariana was a bridesmaid in her friend\'s wedding and had a ton of fun. Maj has two fun facts: She got to pick her own bridesmaid\'s dress last year from Asus and she just saw Wonder Woman.

\\nAngel season 3, episode 5, "Fredless":
\\n-Synopsis
\\n-The gang theorizes about what happened between Buffy and Angel during their little rendezvous midway between Sunnydale and L.A.
\\n-Why do we think the show didn\'t show or tell us what happened between Buffy and Angel?
\\n-Angel the show is tired of being Buffy\'s little brother.
\\n-Yet another conversation about Angel and his "moments of perfect bliss" (AKA his sex life).
\\n-We take a poll: Did we all think Fred\'s parents were evil?
\\n-Fred the Texan physicist.
\\n-Lorne gets a whole storyline, so he seems to be more of a fully fleshed-out character.
\\n-Lorne advised Fred to keep running, that she "hadn\'t run far enough." Sad Lorne is sad.
\\n-Fred was pretty happily in denial about her Pylea life, but is forced to confront it by her non-evil parents.
\\n-Mom runs a bug over with a bus!
\\n-Fred leaves. Sadface.
\\n-But, wait! She comes back to save the day!
\\n-We are all weirded out that Gunn forgot that demon head wasn\'t a prop.
\\n-Fred finds her place at Angel Investigations and she gets a fresh start after painting over her walls.
\\n-Is Fred still crushing on Angel? Or is this fresh start a completely new one?
\\n-A few trivia items for this episode!
\\n-Fred grew a lot in this episode, and it\'s important to see just what she has to offer to the team.
\\n-Wesley is the liberal arts kind of smart, while Fred is more math and sciences.

\\nBuffy the Vampire Slayer season 6, episode 5, "Life Serial":
\\n-Synopsis
\\n-Everyone has expectations about what Buffy should do with her life now.
\\n-Team Tara is awkwardly trying to keep things together.
\\n-Buffy entered college without a good idea of what she wants, and that\'s perfectly okay. (Natalie explains how different it is in Australia.)
\\n-This episode\'s antagonists, The Trio: AKA JAW/WAJ/Prime Lords of Sunnydale?
\\n-Jonathan is spells, Warren is technology, and Andrew is... unclear.
\\n-What is with the Trio? What do they want?
\\n-First Spell: Time fast-forwarding device? What? Disorienting, just like Willow\'s classes.
\\n-Second Spell: Jonathan summons demons for Buffy to fight at the construction site.
\\n-Third Spell: A time loop while she works at the Magic Box.
\\n-Fourth Spell: Red Demon thing? Drunk Buffy still beats him up.
\\n-We all agree that the first spell is the worst and freakiest, but the time loop was frustrating and stressful.
\\n-Buffy and Spike hangout time.
\\n-We all weigh in on our Spike/Buffy feels.
\\n-What do we think Buffy feels/thinks about hanging out with Spike?
\\n-Why does she choose to hang with him?
\\n-Buffy solidly hands Giles his parental unit card when she compares him to her mother.

\\n-Buffy should *totally* be getting paid.
\\n-We are already at two years of Buffy/Angel! What could possibly be next?
\\n-Would a chance Buffy was in hell outweigh the possibility of heaven?
