Buffy the Gilmore Slayer: A Buffy and Gilmore Girls Podcast

Bryan & Stacey

The one and only Gilmore Girls AND Buffy the Vampire Slayer podcast brought to you by comedians/real life couple Bryan Morris & Stacey Kulow. Bryan grew up obsessed with Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Stacey is a huge Gilmore Girls fan, but neither of them have ever seen the other's favorite show. Together they watch their way through both excellent 7-season series, discussing an episode from each show every week, in an attempt to figure out which show is better. Bryan & Stacey are New York-based writer/performers, both born and raised in the Midwest. They met doing improv in Madison, Wisconsin and have been together for over a decade. read less

Our Editor's Take

Buffy the Gilmore Slayer: A Buffy and Gilmore Girls Podcast is a rewatch show with a difference. The series combines one man's love of Buffy the Vampire Slayer with one woman's love of Gilmore Girls. Their mission is to find out which show is best. The hosts are comedians and real-life couple Bryan Morris and Stacey Kulow. They grew up watching their own favorite TV shows, yet they had never seen each other's. This series follows the two watching and discussing each series, one episode at a time.

The first podcast episode started in 2020 with the pilots of both shows. Bryan talks about watching Buffy as a kid, stating that it "defined his life." Stacey watched Gilmore Girls between college classes on reruns. She admits that she isn't 100% sure that Bryan will enjoy her favorite show, although she's hopeful. Bryan feels sure Stacey will love Buffy because "it's great!" How have the shows aged over the years? Will the duo still enjoy them as much as they did the first time? Listeners hear the hosts' honest opinions.

By February 2023, the podcast hosts had reviewed season seven of both shows. In the "Season 7 Wrap-up," they share their favorite moments and discuss which show had the best season. As the seventh season was the end of each show, the couple also review both series in their entirety. They pick their ten favorite episodes from each show amidst much debate.

Since the podcast started, Bryan and Stacey have created a community of avid fans. In "Some Time to Reflect," they focus on social media comments. The pair asks listeners to think about the shows that have helped shape their identities. For Bryan, although he has enjoyed other shows, Buffy will always be the one that connected to him the most.

Buffy the Gilmore Slayer: A Buffy and Gilmore Girls Podcast is a relatable show discussing two iconic TV series. As a couple of comedians and an actual couple, Bryan and Stacey keep the conversations engaging. Which series will they choose as the best show? Listeners will have to follow this podcast to find out.

Firebuns Wrap-up
We did it! We watched and compared Joss and Amy's other two shows. They didn't have quite as much in common as Buffy and Gilmore, but they are both about ragtag groups of people who become each other's found family, led by reluctant heroes. Also both shows feature young, thin, petite girls who can do impressive stuff with their bodies. Oh, and Mitchum! We discuss what worked about the shows, what didn't, and where they maybe would have gone with more seasons. Plus we do an accidental ad for Gain detergent! We will be taking a little break, but please stay tuned for what's next!Here is that Honest Trailer for Firefly that we mentioned.Here is the Bunheads Farewell Dance.Here is the link for the Gilmore Girls Fan Fest weekend.

Bunheads Final Four: Part 2
Bunheads Episode 17 "It's Not a Mint"/Bunheads Episode 18 "Next!"Welp, that's a wrap on Bunheads... did not expect it to end in the middle of a sex ed lesson, but at least we got a cool final dance. We begin with a Bracebridge-esque, town-hunkering-down-together episode, featuring Sean Gunn as basically Kirk. Then we watch as Michelle tries to balance her goals of achieving stardom with her growing pile of sex questions from her students. We do get some nice relationship-mending moments, and some final hilarious bits from some of the silliest side characters. Plus we share some weird things we've done with condoms.Want more content?

Our discussion on the conclusion to the Firefly series: "Serenity"This week we catch up with the crew of Serenity in their feature film! Fortunately, this little show was blessed with the chance to tie up some loose ends. It ties up some of the, arguably, most interesting ends, however, we do wish they had a bit more time to focus on certain characters. We get cameos from a couple famous actors, and a visitor from Joss's sex bot closet. Shepherd Book still doesn't give us any of his backstory, but does teach us a thing or two about leaves, and Inara has learned some fancy incense tricks. And don't worry, everything's gonna be great.Want more content? Sing up for our Patreon!

Bunheads Episode 15 "Take the Vicuna"/Bunheads Episode 16 "There's Nothing Worse Than a Pantsuit"Witness the drama unfold as boyfriends *gasp* try to sit with their girlfriends at lunch, and Michelle and her brother... don't go to Burning Man? You thought Michelle's brother was bad? Wait till you meet their mom! Sasha's new apartment has everyone in a tizzy. Fanny makes a deal with Milly, after Milly pulls some real Paris sh*t. We were super excited to see Sal again, but for us, he's lost a bit of that somehow not creepy, butt-identifier charm. Michelle's having a whole new crisis. And we've got some hot takes about a 40-year old movie.Want more content? Sing up for our Patreon!
