1.05 Never Kill A Boy on the First Date | A Buffy the Vampire Slayer Podcast

Welcome to Once More, With Spoilers, where Kristin Russo & Jenny Owen Youngs revisit every episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, one at a time — for the SECOND time! — this time discussing each episode with spoilers!

Sure, FINE, maybe we need to deal with some Anointed One rising from the ashes of five or whatever, but have you SEEN WHAT A HUNK OWEN IS?!?! Surely seems like he should be allowed some of our focus despite any pending apocalypses.

We are here this week to discuss Buffy's "Never Kill A Boy on the First Date," and also to implore the residents of Sunnydale to do a better job blockading their doors when vampires or demons descend (leave the floor lamps and the couch pillows out of this!!).
