Buffy the vampire slayer appreciation thread

Buffy the vampire slayer is one of the greatest shows of all time imo, certainly during it's time along with The X files. One of the few shows that could literally make you think, laugh, cry, and afraid all in the same episode. It launched 3 prominent actresses careers, the writing was brilliant, depth of characters was phenomenal, they had tons of awesome guest bands, one of them being The Breeders who covered the theme song.

Buffy was such an influential show, it's insane. The modern vampire craze in television and movies wouldn't exist right now it if weren't for this show. It was never predictable, always exciting, and even did a freakin musical episode that was so brilliantly written and done it's not even funny, and everyone even had the balls to sing their own parts, something many many other shows wouldn't even consider trying.

One of my favorite things about this show is how dark it is. I think the extent it goes just makes the show so much deeper on both emotional and intellectual levels. Throughout the series, several characters that you have seen develop and grown to love die, and it's all very tragic.

This scene where Buffy's mom dies ... I watched this show religiously with my xgf, and she was watching this episode with me when it first aired. Her mom had died when she was 15, so you can imagine what kind of impact this scene had

Out of the many many characters in the show, some I like, many I love, a few I hate. The one character that I hate the most, the character that I absolutely ****ing DESPISE the most, the ONE ****ing pile of filth character that I hate the most, that just sends me into ****ing rage

is Warren 😡

That is probably my single most hated character in all of television, certainly Buffy the vampire slayer. It takes a really great show to make such a loathsome character.

My favorite character in this show is Spike. Spike is such a great character and he and Buffy have such a great dynamic, especially in the later seasons, and Marsters and Gellar have such great chemistry together.

Back when this show was on I recorded a bunch of episodes and I was going through some old tapes a month or two ago and came across an episode and started watching them, and I just had to go out and get all the DVDs. I have season 2-7, all I need is season 1 to have the full series.

One of my favorite shows of all time, one of the greatest shows of all time, and it was even influential to my religion. Here's to Buffy.
