Beer Bad S4 E5 (Buffy and the Art of Story) Buffy and the Art of Story
-
- TV & Film
This week on Buffy and the Art of Story – Beer Bad (Season 4 Episode 5 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer), where Buffy discovers beer with unexpected consequences:
(1) what happens when no antagonist actively opposes the protagonist? (2) metaphors that don’t quite land and a theme gone astray; (3) parallel characters who behave in contrasting ways; (4) fakeouts to start and end the episode.
Spoiler-free, except at the end (with plenty of warning).
Next Up: Wild at Heart (S4 E6)
Last Episode: Fear Itself (S4 E4)
