    ETERNITY (ANGEL 1x17)

    ᴀɴɢᴇʟ𝐒𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 1 𝐄𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 17: “𝑬𝑻𝑬𝑹𝑵𝑰𝑻𝒀” When a famous actress turns to Angel for protection from a dangerous stalker, he finds himself drawn into her increasingly desperate struggle to hold onto her fading career. But when Rebecca discovers Angel's secret, her fear of growing older leads her to make a choice that puts them and everyone else in danger. Join us for this week’s DRAMATIZED SOAP OPERA as we shine the light on Rebecca Lowell one last time before her career ends… and possibly her life. We unpack the risks she takes and her inadvertent release of ANGELUS, who wastes absolutely no time stealing the spotlight right out from under her ass. We both appreciate how the show brings Angel’s darker side to the forefront, revisiting its vampiric roots with a sinister new edge. Brandon even draws comparisons to Ford’s deception in Buffy’s “Lie to Me” from Season 2. And Cordelia? Let’s just say the performance that truly counts isn’t the one at the beginning, but the one that leaves its mark in the end. As thrilling episodes go, this one hits the mark for us! What do you think of Rebeccas manipulations and tactics to achieve what she desires. Did you like this way of teasing ANGELUS’ return? Do you think Cordelia is a competitor against angel for worlds best actor when it counts? Let us know by sending us a DM over on IG- revamped_rewatchpodcast or email us at revampedrewatchpod@gmail.com  You can as always explore the world left behind with Courtney’s on her podcast "Echoes of Elsewhere: An Urban Exploration podcast" where she documents her own explorations and interviews fellow adventurers for a deep dive into the world of Urbex. Also featuring segments that go beyond the abandoned, uncovering true crime and paranormal stories lingering within the forgotten places she’s discovered. Available wherever you get your pods!

As Jonathan becomes the town's hero, Buffy and the Scoobies slowly uncover the dangerous truth behind his transformation, forcing Jonathan to confront what his fantasy has created. JONATHAN JONATHAN JONATHAN. Never did we ever think we’d spend so much time speaking to him. Along this coverage, we talk about the obvious hilarity and wackiness this episode brings, but also shift when deserved aka all across it, to speak on just how gross Jonathan is for this spell he’s cast on the world. We discuss the clean up energy of Faiths aftermath and the way Buffy is feeling toward Riley, laugh for certain at just about every Anya scene and cringe like we did in the past over Xanders okay nature with what’s occurring.. and that’s after its revealed to be a facade.  What are your thoughts on Jonathans choices here? Do you find the episode to be a bit of fun or completely cringe worthy for everything going on. Do you think Xander is gay for Jonathan?

    ʙᴜғғʏ ᴛʜᴇ ᴠᴀᴍᴘɪʀᴇ sʟᴀʏᴇʀ𝐒𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 4 𝐄𝐩𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐞 16: “𝑾𝑯𝑶 𝑨𝑹𝑬 𝒀𝑶𝑼?” After Faith uses the Mayor’s gift to swap her and Buffy’s bodies, she gets to live out the life she’s always envied. But as Faith begins to experience what it means to be Buffy, she finds herself increasingly uncomfortable in a life she thought she wanted. Meanwhile, Buffy, captured by the Watchers Council, attempts to escape and reclaim her own identity. This week, we’re tackling Part 2 of the body-swap arc and getting into just how WRONG it is for Faith to violate Buffy in one of the worst ways possible. We return to the themes of autonomy and assault, and how Faith truly embodies her own twisted mantra: WANT, TAKE, HAVE. We unpack the layers of Faith manipulating everyone around her and what this experience means for Buffy and the trauma shes undergoing. Courtney shares her current thoughts & viewpoint on Faith, we finally get to talk about the budding relationship between Willow and Tara, and Brandon gets to discuss one of his favorite Faith defining moments, as cringe-inducing as it is, but how shes finally beginning to see the person she’s become.  You can as always explore the world left behind with Courtney’s on her podcast "Echoes of Elsewhere: An Urban Exploration podcast" where she documents her own explorations and interviews fellow adventurers for a deep dive into the world of Urbex.

Chris Birch (BUFFYDOOD) After Cordelia receives a vision of a young boy in danger, Angel and Wesley investigate his troubled family and uncover signs of a powerful demon. But as they attempt to free the boy from its possession, a much darker truth begins to emerge. OH MY GOD! This one! Join us along with Chris as we talk about the not-so-demonically-possessed Ryan and how his character is equal parts terrifying yet relatable, how eerie it is that a demon was actually fearful of him, and how much we enjoy the multiple bait-and-switches this manipulative episode throws at us! Listen to Chris and Courtney’s complete despise of Ryan’s mother, how surprising the dad’s arc was, and how all three of us love the humor Cordelia brings this episode... but maybe not so much her brownies. This one is completely unhinged and hilarious in the best way! Let us know what you think of this one.. Do you enjoy it? How do you feel about psycho ass Ryan? What are your thoughts on the evolution of Wesley so far?
