One year anniversary on the Hellmouth Charisma’s best of Hot Takes
The Bitch Is Back with Charisma CarpenterShow Notes
In this week's episode of The Bitch is Back, Charisma Carpenter closes out the podcast's first season, a run that carried her through 24 episodes across Seasons 1 and the first half of Season 2, culminating in a Vacation Edition best-of special where she revisits the Pod’s sharpest hot takes. It's a first watch, so every reaction lands fresh: the dream sequence sucker punch that genuinely shocked her, the Cordelia-and-Xander opposites-attract makeout that simply does not track, and the lox and bagel bad breath warfare she and her scene partner waged behind it. Then there's the swarm of worms that still gives her a full-body shudder, and a fond look back at Queen C's license plate, a prop fans were still recreating for her at a convention in Paris. One year in, and the bitch is still very much back.

In this episode of The B*tch Is Back, I watch Go Fish, Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 2, Episode 20, for the first time.

Plus why this episode is more relevant today than you might think.
In this episode of The B*tch Is Back I answer the questions I get asked most. Why I named the podcast The Bitch Is Back and what Cordelia's most iconic line has to do with it. Whether I have really never watched Buffy or Angel all the way through. And why watching this show with you felt like something I had to do for myself, for the fandom, and for everyone who felt conflicted loving a show with a complicated history. Plus the comments that made me cry and what is coming next.
In this episode of The B*tch Is Back, I watched I Only Have Eyes for You, Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 2, Episode 19, for the first time. This one hit different. A ghost reliving a murder. A love that couldn't be. And the cafeteria snake scene that I was absolutely not prepared for. I share what really happened on set that day and why this episode left me with more questions than answers. Including the one nobody wants to answer. Who deserves forgiveness?
