Buffy is a Slayer, one in a long line of young women chosen for a specific mission: to seek out and destroy vampires, demons and other forces of darkness. The series follows Buffy as she deals with her life fighting evil, with the help of her friends.
But a little Valley-speak goes a long way. The dialogue is riddled with phrases like ''totally dead,'' ''morbid much'' and ''way extracurricular.'' Someone should take a stake to the script.
Buffy is done with a sly yet generous humor that lets you forget the pain of its premise -- hence its appeal. The show manages to be sweet without offering any hope whatsoever.
The establishment of the Hellmouth and the season's overall arc with the Master and his flock of deeply religious vampires was actually quite well done despite [being a short season].
Being the first season, it was *very* rough around the edges in the early stages. The villains weren't particularly memorable, and the work on the vampires and demons wasn't that strong then and certainly doesn't hold up now.
Buffy - both the show and the character - gave me the strength and confidence I needed to begin living my young life anew in a world that often thought of women as weak, defenseless creatures. I now had a super cool heroine to look up to.
But damn did it take chances with its storytelling, and more importantly it became the gold standard for how to make a supernatural show so deeply connect with what it means to be human.
