Buffy Boys 045 - Hansel und Gretel (S03E11)

Satanic panic clutches the pearls of Sunnydale's suggestible parental population! When Joyce finds two ritually murdered children the town turns just a lil fascist against witches, slayers and other queer allegories. Who Watches The Watcher Watchers? The Buffy Boys do in S03E11 "Gingerbread".

Key Buffy Bits from this episode include:

• Black nail polish and boy witches: Magic as metaphor for gender defiant transgression
• Selective memory and mass delusion; resisting dark forces by choosing the burden of awareness
• Joyce's pitch perfect Anita Bryant impersonation
• The pervasive and illiterate terror of deep European folklore
• "Now, let's be clear. The brain damage happened before I hit you"
