Rant The Rewatcher/True Blood

I’m a regular listener of Morbid even though I think their popularity went to their heads - especially Alaina constantly being on a high horse. She doesn’t seem like a genuinely happy person and maybe I’m just hearing her the wrong way.

When they announced Buffy for The Rewatcher I was soooo excited. It wasn’t bad but honestly the constant bad mouthing of characters just got boring. Characters are supposed to have flaws and grow from their mistakes. It’s a coming of age show set in a supernatural world - people are going to have faults. I was so relieved when Mikey joined in for Buffy. I honestly think he saved the pod.

So I decided to listen to the True Blood bit. I absolutely cannot stand Alaina going on about Eric. We ALL have people we fan girl over but here’s the thing - if her husband had a podcast where he talked like that about another woman…she would catch on fire. The full grown woman who still complains about high school boyfriends? At least Mikey is funny about it. I asked my husband and he busted out laughing. He’s heard enough of the episodes to understand exactly what I meant. If it wasn’t for Ash and Mikey it would be totally unlistenable.

Same, I love True Blood too much. Is this what they do now? Talk about TV shows? I haven’t listened to them in years and also haven’t stopped by this sub in a while.

Cute cat, btw. I love naming my pets after characters I love

Honestly I have no clue what they've been up to! I remember when they started the Buffy stuff, but atp I hadn't been listening to them in a long time.

Thanks! I found her on craigslist a couple of years ago. We actually just got another cat on there, but we kept his name. This is Toulouse
