Recap, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Episode 3.01, “Anne”

I don’t want any trouble. I just want to be alone and quiet in a room with a chair and a fireplace and a tea cozy. I don’t even know what a tea cozy is, but I want one. Instead, I keep getting trouble, which I am more than willing to share.

Ladyghosts: The West Wing 2.05, “And It’s Surely to Their Credit”

Sorkin loves Gilbert and Sullivan, and bully for Sorkin. I’m the worst theater degree holding person in the world, because I find Gilbert and Sullivan to be three prissy librettos beyond insufferable. When I saw this episode was going to fall on my watch, I groaned.  I think I prefer Toe Pick to Gilbert and […]

LadyGhosts of TV Past: 2.2, “In the Shadow of Two Gunmen, Part 2”

This episode opens with the lone surviving gunman being skinheady at a diner, with the news of Joshua Lyman’s injuries on the news (see Selena’s recap of 2.1 to be brought up to speed). This is one of my most favorite episodes ever, because it gives so much of the back story about the senior […]

Ladyghosts: Season One of The West Wing

It took us long enough, but between three or four writers, four months and roughly 25,000 words, we made it from our first introduction to the best POTUS ever when he drove his bicycle into a tree in the pilot until he was caught in the middle of an assassination attempt in the finale.  Let’s […]

Ladyghosts of TV Past: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, S2, E11 “Ted”

I mean, people are perfectly happy getting along and then vampires come and they run around and they kill people and they take over your whole house, they start making these stupid little mini-pizzas and everyone’s like, “Oh, look! A mini-pizza!” but I’m telling you, I have…

This, according to Netflix, is the “action-packed season finale!”  I know it’s been a couple weeks since my last recap, but hopefully we can all remember what has happened.  A lot happens in this episode so it’s going to be a long recap. Let’s get going!

Good. ‘Cause I’ve had it. Spike is going down. You can attack me, you can send assassins after me . . . that’s just fine. But nobody messes with my boyfriend.

No, Angel, it’s not you. You’re the one freaky thing in my freaky world that still makes sense to me. I just get messed sometimes. I wish we could be regular kids.

Ladyghosts: Veronica Mars, 1.21, “A Trip To The Dentist”

Ed. Note: TW on this episode for discussion of rape. We have a flashback-heavy episode this week as Veronica works to piece together the details of what happened the night she was drugged and raped.  But the episode starts off with Papa Mars in Cuba where he has managed to track down Duncan Kane. Maybe […]

Ladyghosts of TV Past: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, S2, E8 “The Dark Age”

  I knew this would happen. Nobody can be wound as straight and narrow as Giles without a dark side erupting. My Uncle Rory was the stodgiest taxidermist you’ve ever met – by day. By night it was booze, whores and fur flying. Were there whores?

Ladyghosts: Veronica Mars, 1.20, “M.A.D”

This episode opens on Veronica causing a parking lot traffic jam by doing her own car tune-up, reminding us why Veronica is one of our favorite badass ladyghosts.  It then cuts to some 09er blackmailing his girlfriend into not breaking up with him by threatening to show everyone in school a cell phone video of […]
