As Buffy struggles with Riley's uncertain future and the growing threat of Adam, a far more personal danger returns to Sunnydale. After eight months in a coma, Faith awakens to a world that has moved on without her, and the vengeful rogue Slayer sets her sights on Buffy and the people she loves, leading the two Slayers toward a confrontation that forces the past back into the present.

Finally we are here and Faith is back to stir the pot some more! Hear Courtney’s surprise to Faith waking from her coma, how she takes in the world along with how she still has it out for Buffy. We discuss how badass Joyce is in the face of actual danger, the cool ways the show can bring back deceased characters, how much we love when our Slayers go up against each other, and our thoughts on why Faith woke up now after 8 months, plus so much more! Not to mention that cliffhanger we’re left on… FAITH IS IN BUFFY’S BODY!! WE GIVE THIS ONE A FIVE OUT OF FIVE, FOR SURE!!!

I know this is a fan favorite, but we want to hear from you! What did you think about Faith waking up after such a long time, and how they handled bringing her back into the fold? Do you wish she had simply woken up remorseful and ready to be rehabilitated, or do you prefer this version of her character and the continuation of her villain arc? Send us a DM over on instagram @ revamped_rewatchpodcast or send an email to revampedrewatchpod@gmail.com to let us know your thoughts. 

You can also as always explore the world left behind with Courtney’s on her podcast "Echoes of Elsewhere: An Urban Exploration podcast" where she documents her own explorations and interviews fellow adventurers for a deep dive into the world of Urbex. Also featuring segments that go beyond the abandoned, uncovering true crime and paranormal stories lingering within the forgotten places she’s discovered. Available wherever you get your pods!

After Cordelia receives a vision of a young boy in danger, Angel and Wesley investigate his troubled family and uncover signs of a powerful demon. But as they attempt to free the boy from its possession, a much darker truth begins to emerge.

OH MY GOD! This one!
Join us along with Chris as we talk about the not-so-demonically-possessed Ryan and how his character is equal parts terrifying yet relatable, how eerie it is that a demon was actually fearful of him, and how much we enjoy the multiple bait-and-switches this manipulative episode throws at us!
Listen to Chris and Courtney’s complete despise of Ryan’s mother, how surprising the dad’s arc was, and how all three of us love the humor Cordelia brings this episode... but maybe not so much her brownies.
This one is completely unhinged and hilarious in the best way!

Let us know what you think of this one.. Do you enjoy it? How do you feel about psycho ass Ryan? What are your thoughts on the evolution of Wesley so far? Email us revampedrewatchpod@gmail.com or by messaging us on IG and sending a DM to @revamped_rewatchpodcast

The fallout from Professor Walsh's betrayal leaves Buffy searching for answers as the Initiative begins to unravel from within. As long-buried secrets come to light and Riley begins questioning everything he thought he knew, Maggie's greatest experiment is finally brought out of the shadows.

This week we’re joined by Revamped Community listener Brittany to talk the aftermath of Maggie’s death, her complete escape of accountability along with the demon cyborg she created, aka this season’s BIG BAD! We get into the horrors of his world view..share our thoughts on the commandos getting drugged, Riley’s withdrawal and the shift in his demeanor toward Buffy.. We have PLENTY to say about FORREST and his apparent affection for his 1st in command and Riley’s overall spiral when facing these revelations on all he thought he knew. 

What your thoughts are on Adam appearing to be an unstoppable force, his methods of learning and how fucked up it is Maggie created this thing that led to her own undoing and what seems to be for the initiative itself. How do you feel about Riley being drugged to become the soldier he is, his journey finding out about everything and what this means for him moving forward.

When Cordelia receives a vision of a gruesome murder, Angel's investigation leads him to Jhiera, a mysterious refugee from another dimension who's helping women escape a brutally oppressive society. As ruthless hunters from her world close in, Angel finds himself caught between stopping a killer and protecting someone willing to risk everything to free others from a lifetime of subjugation.

This week we’re here to talk about possibly the latest episode of ANGEL out there. Hear our thoughts on why this one didn’t quite land for us personally, but also our thoughts on how fucked up this world of Jheira’s is, why we still stand for her mission... in ways, and how Angel 100% wants to do something else with that KO of hers. Hot and bothered doesn’t even begin to describe our convo on this one!

Do you find this story compelling in any way shape or form, do you like the idea of Jhiera and her battle against her worlds men and the way their system operates? DO you even like this episode!!!

Buffy is welcomed deeper into the Initiative, embracing a world that finally seems to understand the Slayer's place within it. But as she grows closer to Riley, her friends become increasingly wary of the organization's true intentions, and it's clear not everyone is happy with Buffy's new role... especially as the mystery behind Room 314 begins to unravel.

This week we’re talking Maggie Walsh trying to kill Buffy, her twisted man-demon child of a threat, Adam, and gawking over Riley & Buffy getting extra physical! Hear our thoughts on Buffy joining up with the Initiative, Professor Walsh trying to take her out.. like, permanently.. and Courtney’s drop-the-mic thoughts on Buffy’s THAT SLAYED MOMENT when she fails to do so! *insert Brandons whooping and hollering "YAS BITCCHHHH"*

What did you think of "The I in Team” The first time you watched it, were you shocked by the reveals surrounding Adam and Prof. Walsh? Were you caught off guard by the lengths Maggie was willing to go to in order to stop Buffy, or did you see it coming? What are your thoughts on Buffy and Riley finally sleeping together? And are you excited to hear Courtney's thoughts and reactions on this next stretch of episodes?
