EPISODE 9: BUFFY LETS THE PUPPETS DANCE (S01E09 "The Puppet Show”)
“Sunnydale has touched...and felt...for the last time.”
In this week's episode the Boys get their Goosebumps vibes and tackle some seriously wooden acting as a murderous ventriloquist's dummy stalks the school talent show. Or does it? Oh, a twist!
Key Buffy Bits from this episode include:
The seeds of nightmare in all teenage anxieties
A statistically unlikely number of genius students at Sunnydale
The audience as sympathetic voyeur to the horror
Oedipus Rex - embedding classic texts in the Buffy structure
"Once you go wood, nothing's as good"
