In this week’s episode, Buffy’s mom is showing up in a big way! She has a new love interest, Ted, who is trying his best to fit into this tight-knit group of friends/family. He comes with gifts of pizza, cookies, and picnics! I'm also relatively sure he isn't a cyborg or anything... Come on in!

This week on Pop Culture Role Call, we explore part two of this midseason special! We get to know Kendra a bit better, and the gang has some strong feelings about her “anti Angel” sentiments. Speaking of Angel, he is in a pretty rough spot in this arc. The big news though?! Willow and her new love interest (Collin is calling it) Oz make some big steps forward! Thanks for listening!

In this week’s episode, a big ol' job fair graces Sunnydale High! Willow loves her future, pro-shrub, prospects, but Buffy is a little less excited by the whole thing. Maybe it’s because she is just a teenager, and maybe it has to do with the unstoppable legion of supernatural assassins after her life…who knows? But it’s definitely one of those two. Thanks for listening!

Giles is back in all his tweed glory. From Nine Inch Nails to getting down and dirty with his Calendar girl. Giles has some demons to face and the rest of the team are just along for the ride.
