I’ll admit, this week’s “I Spy” is a bit phoned in (as evidenced by its lateness). but I’m not about excuses. I have only myself to blame.
That said, here we go!
I am a vintage kitchenwares nut and, as my knowledge of these items grows, it has been fun for me to notice some of the items I love in popular television shows and movies.
A few months back, I noticed Fire-King stackable mugs in the movie Dark Shadows (2012):

More recently, I have been watching old episodes of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and noticed a solitary Fire-King Jade-ite D handle mug in several episodes. Finding one of these in real life is a thrift goal of mine, so it is kind of maddening and amusing to see this one over and over.
“Oh, you want one of these mugs?”
“Good luck with that.”
Even the Scooby Gang gets to use the mug. I must confess, it gnaws at me when Cordelia uses the mug.
I am not the only one with a keen eye. Evidently, someone else noticed the mug on Buffy and started a quest for one. Here is their find:
Want!
