Summary

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! We are currently conducting a survey to determine what, definitively, IS the greatest love of all… Is it our collective love for the hilarity and chaos of campy season one Monster-of-the-Week episodes? Is it Principal Snyder’s love of hating the children he is charged with educating? Is it our love for the fact that this is the only episode of Buffy that features a ventriloquist’s dummy, or perhaps our love for the peerless Shakespearean performance we get during the credits? Or are all of these tied for second place, and is the GREATEST love of all our love for Cordelia??? Lay back, relax, and let us strap you in to our guillotine for Season 1, Episode 9, “The Puppet Show.” JOIN US IN LA & BOSTON FOR UPCOMING LIVE EVENTS: bufferingcast.com/slayers MORE ON BUFFY PROM, OUR BOOK RELEASE EVENT IN TORRANCE, and NO & LOW COST TICKETS: bufferingcast.com/prom OUR BOOK!

1:23.1	intro to the puppet show. Um, I am recording this intro on Tuesday, March 4th. However, this episode
1:30.9	was recorded in advance by a lot, actually. We recorded the puppet show back at the end of January.
1:37.9	Why? You probably know. Because in between the end of January and today, March 4th, I had a tiny baby. Her name is Sal.

1:55.9	the world on February 14th. She's a little Valentine's Day baby. At the hospital, I will let you know.
