Buffy the Vampire Slayer season 6, episode 12, "Doublemeat Palace":
-Synopsis
-There is mad love and mad hate for this episode.
-Sarah Michele Gellar was in Burger King commercials as a kid.
-The burgers are not made of people, they're made of VEGETABLES! *GASP* Beef fat is the secret ingredient.
-Sex in the alley sounds, well sexy, but it didn't look it at all.
-What is going on with Buffy and Spike here?
-Was Helfrich right in her understanding of the Xander/Anya relationship?
-Xander constantly correcting Anya is usually played for laughs, but is it at least a little problematic?
-It was the old lady! Didn't see that one coming.
-Amy 'gifts' Willow some magic for her birthday. Was it retaliation or an actual 'gift'?
-Willow is working hard to overcome her addiction, and we just hope the show sticks through this to the end.
-Maj shares the German and French titles for this episode.
-Xander and Dawn discuss Buffy's job prospects for the future.
-Buffy really should be getting paid by the Watcher's Council and Willow should be helping pay the bills if she's gonna live there.

Angel season 3, episode 12, "Provider":
-Synopsis
-Oh how the tables have turned! Angel is now the financially concerned one, while Cordy is mission-focused.
-Cordy, you can't take a baby to a beheading.
-Buffy and Angel both were money-themed episodes, and this isn't the first time the themes have lined up with these shows.
-The Holtz scenes definitely seem like filler, and we find them mostly annoying.
-Jeffrey Dean Morgan makes a clean shaven appearance.
-Fan theory is that Jack and Sam's relationship was a little more than best friends.
-Who would you rather see with Fred: Wesley, Gunn (or both)?
-No sign of Cordy's demon side... yet.
-German/French titles
-Connor has a dedicated little family around him with Aunt Cordy, Uncle Wes, Uncle Gunn, and Aunt Fred.
