Summary

Charisma is diving into Season 2, Episode 5: "Reptile Boy," where she watches this frat house nightmare for the very first time and has plenty of notes on Cordelia’s desperate "pick-me" vibes and that fake laugh. She also learns into the cringey reality of the Buffy/Angel age gap conversation. Charisma then reunites with her old friend and Malibu Shores co-star, Greg Vaughan (Richard the frat leader), for a trip down 90s memory lane to discuss, fighting typecasting, raising three boys as a single dad while working insane soap opera schedules, and sharing a truly emotional moment remembering Charisma’s mom on set that you don't want to miss.
