Cringe Benefits

Welcome to the Hellmouth: actor Becca Musser is here with host Abby Wilde to take us through this forbidden favorite of both of their childhoods. What did we ever see in Xander Harris? What was going on behind the scenes? Can we agree that Willow Rosenberg is the best of all things? (We can.) And most of all: what does it mean to be a strong female character?
