Yes Mother, S4: Ep 1, “A Danger to Himself and Others”

01ffffad0ffd69cc1c582b29b66d27e3937bcae66eHow glad we are to be back to White Pine Bay (even if there are a few more bodies in it). Things have gotten off to a cracking start- Norman is spending much of his time either talking to mother or being her, Norma is scheming half baked schemes and Romero is having none of it, Emma is getting new lungs, and we see the seedier side of what Oregon has to offer in the way of mental health. Oh- and Emma’s mom thought sneaking in to meet Norman would be a good idea (spoiler alert: it wasn’t). Listen to Norma next time when she tells you to stay away from her son!

On the podcast, we are able to reacquaint ourselves with many of our hotel and B and B guests by reading their comment cards, and the seedier “Normero Inn” gets it’s first occupant. But you will have to wait until the end to hear our vocal comment card from Matt A and his bossy, interrupting, robot girlfriend who is always trying to tell him where to turn. We also recap the episode in the only way we know how over here at Yes Mother- with laughs and discussion and theories.

Join us! You know we always have fresh towels, peepholes, and good times.

Sue Watches Angel #77, S5: A Hole in the World, Shells, and Underneath Part I

5.17I had to break up the discussion into 2 palatable chunks. This chunk includes Cat’s Crypt, Feedback and Sue and B’s first reactions to the events that played out in these unforgettable eps. Good news– both parts include B and Harold! You won’t want to miss them! Part II coming as soon as I can possibly get it done, which may mean next week.

Yes Mother: Preparing for the new season and deleted scenes from S3

bates-01This podcast is basically everything Em and Sue talked about that night that didn’t have to do with Normero. Then we spliced in a call we put into room #1 and discussed with Harold the deleted scenes from Season 3. We are really just excited for next week! The linens are freshly laundered, we put all new light bulbs in all the rooms, and the peepholes are polished and nicely hidden. Norman- make sure you iron that blue dress! We want you looking sharp. See you all on Monday!

Yes, Mother: A Bate’s Motel NORMERO Special

01f329e719456cf4857fa51eaa695f593868c255d4

Well, we did it- we talked about Norma and Alex for an entire episode.  We explored their relationship scene by scene, starting with that high stress first meeting where Sheriff Alex Romero is suspiciously suspicious of Norma (like she is hiding a dead body right under his nose or something) to that scene in front of the hotel when she is stoic and vulnerable and he is unapologetic and frustrated and willing to do anything for that hot mess Norma Bates whom we all love so much.

We reminisce and remember the good and bad times these two have had before they inevitably change, we rate some scenes according to chemistry, and have an all around grand time, as we do.

Join us!

Sue Watches Angel #75, S5: Harm’s Way, Soul Purpose, and Damage

5.10Em and Sue are getting well on our way through Season 5! In these eps, we explore a day in the life of Harmony, feed on Angel’s self doubts and fears, and get a visit from an old dear friend who’s here to fetch a crazy, rogue potential slayer who wrongfully accusing *someone on the Angel team* and out for revenge (I’m still hesitant and shy to say the “s” word here). Mum’s the word.

Feedback, but no Cat’s Crypt.

Sue Watches Angel #73, S5: Conviction, Just Rewards, Unleashed, and Hellbound

angel5x1convictionWelcome to season 5 AKA the last season of TV in the Buffyverse. Yep I said it. In this episode, Em, Sue, and B are joined by Beth Smith. We spend some time talking about what it takes to weave a huge web of lies so one can surprise her newbies and all the gymnastics and stress that entails. WORTH IT!!! We also visit Cat’s Crypt and read feedback. Then we dive into the inner workings of Wolfram and Hart with the rest of the Angel gang. Join us as we embark into territory where Sue and B may one day be able to google Buffy. It’s coming. Fast.

Sue Watches Angel #72, End of Season 4: Sacrifice, Peace Out, and Home

4x20_topWelcome to the end of Season 4! In this set of episodes we find out how the gang defeats Jasmine and ends world peace (go team!) and we get a glimpse into what season 5 may entail. In the podcast you get Em and Sue’s true feelings for Jasmine (or the Jasmine story line). Join us! We talk a little David Bowie too, cause you know we would have to have a David Bowie Memorial Podcast right?

Keep doing your thing.

Sue Watches Buffy #71 Part II: End of Days and Chosen and series ending

buffy-scythe-chosenWelcome to the Hellmouth!

In this episode Em, Sue and B discuss the last of Buffy. You heard them watch it, now comes the discussion of what their enhanced vampire eyeballs saw. We also do top and bottom 5’s of Buffy episodes and rank the seasons according to preference.
But before all that is a very last Cat’s Crypt. Except it’s not.

**FYI: I had to edit this one twice in full (second one on 2 hours of sleep), so if this version contains silence gaps and stuff that really should have been edited out, exercise a little mercy if you would.  Forgive me, I skimmed a bit.  -E **
