“Beer Bad” November 2, 1999 We’re joined by most excellent friend of the podcast Autumn Brannon to watch the infamous Buffy The Vampire Slayer episode Beer Bad. In case during the early 2000’s you were living under a rock, in a drunken haze or a... millennial - Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and her fast-talking teen pals were tasked with saving their hometown of Sunnydale (and the world) from various mythical creatures of lore. Vampires being the sexiest monsters got to be in the title but Buffy and friends got to face off against a menagerie of cryptozoology every week for our viewing pleasure. With all that going on - this episode still left us thinking “I don’t buy it.” Buffy is reeling from being rebuffed by teen lothario Parker (Adam Kaufman). Xander (Nicholas Brendon) has gotten himself a job at the local pub but is constantly getting dressed down by the snobby college kids. Buffy drowns her sorrows with beer (bad) and said super-date-rapey college snobs, and they all mysteriously start to devolve into cave teens. You see the bar owner knows a warlock who gave him the spell to teach these snob-bros a lesson. Will Xander save Buffy before she goes full Clan of the Cave Bear? Will Buffy save Sunnydale from herself? Is Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) even in this episode? As always, the answers to all these questions and more lie within the spooky depths of this week's episode of Very Special Television!
