| As we all know, the amazing Joss Whedon, created Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and considering Buffy is a part in the "women of the Whedon-verse" (with River) I decided, "Hey! Let's talk about the awesome Buffy!" So Buffy lasted, what, 7 seasons? And a whole comic book series of season 8 and 9?
For all you Buffy fans, let's ask some...well...basic questions Who are your favourite Buffy characters? Who are your least favourite Buffy characters? What is your favourite Buffy episode? Why? What is your least favourite Buffy episode? Why? AND!! Favourite Buffy couple?
Now on this thread feel free to post Fanfiction, Videos, Pictures, etc.
ALSO! EMMA CAULFIELD WHO PLAYS ANYA HAS A YOUTUBE CHANNEL CHECK IT OUT! http://www.youtube.com/user/ESSNEMMA
AND WATCH HER TAKE THE "WHICH BUFFY CHARACTER ARE YOU?" QUIZ!

| TV Characters Who Just Won"t Stay Dead / Buffy Summers ( Buffy The Vampire Slayer )
"Hey, I"ve died twice," Buffy sang chirpily in the much-lauded musical episode "Once More, With Feeling", and while she wasn"t the only Whedonverse character to cheat death, her returns from the grave had the most-weight. Her momentary death in season one"s finale was mostly just a plot point - although it did give us Kendra and later Faith - but her self-sacrificing death in "The Gift" messed her up permanently, leaving her clinically depressed for pretty much the rest of the series.

| Formidable Final Girls Who Survived Horror Movies / Buffy Summers - Buffy The Vampire Slayer
Sarah Michelle Gellar kicked ass as Buffy Summers back in the late 1990"s, but before that, Kristy Swanson was the original vampire slayer, providing the blueprint for one of the most successful genre shows in TV history.
Buffy may not seem like an obvious choice for this list, but without the "final girl," there would be no Buffy. Joss Whedon first came up with the idea when he theorized what might happen if one of these final girls stood up for themselves from the outset, turning the tables on their would be assailants.
Finally, a strong and wilful final girl who doesn"t feel the need to be overly masculine or virginal in the process. By subverting the concept of the "final girl," Whedon created a role model for an entire generation of women. If only Gellar could have starred in the original movie. Oh, well. A geek can dream.

| 5 More TV Shows To Binge On Netflix / Buffy
Buffy is a perfect show for binge-watching. Firstly, It"s brilliant, compelling television. Secondly, a marathon watch means you can blast through the fun but uneven first season to get to the really good stuff - Buffy"s broken heart, Angel"s evil, Faith, The Mayor and all the other goodness that seasons two and three contain.
Plus, by the time you reach the mildly disappointing final season, you"ll be so far down the Hellmouth that you won"t be able to stop.

| Famous TV Villains You Didn"t Realise Were Complete Morons / Angel"s Gypsies ( Buffy: The Vampire Slayer )
The gypsies are the brilliant people who cursed Angelus for killing their gypsy princess. They wanted him to suffer eternally so they thought up an incredibly dumb curse. Don"t think it"s dumb? Well, think about it. They curse Angel with a soul that can be forfeited if he ever experiences one moment of pure happiness. Then the dimwits they never tell him the condition under which he can keep the soul. As it turns out, pure happiness can be gained through sex. Angel is a guy,
Of course Angel was going to lose his soul. He was a man and a pretty hot one at that! Most men are not voluntarily celibate and by not telling him the condition there was no reason for him not to have sex. So he has sex with Buffy, a vampire slayer no doubt, and turns evil. The curse works! Yeah, but now we have this maniac on the loose and while the curse has a provision for automatically taking the soul, it doesn"t have a provision to en-soul him again. That"s just plain dumb - why not just give him a permanent soul or if revenge is really all that important, provide a way for his ensoulment again in case he slipped up?
