Buffy, oh Buffy.  What a dramatic season!  You did more crying and soul-searching than vampire-staking in season 5.  Man, sucks to grow up, huh?


You:
- Met Dracula -- that was cool
- Lost Riley
- Learned about Dawn not being your sister
- Were repulsed by Spike's crush on you
- Fought a few trolls
- Lost your Mom
- Fought errant knights from a winnebego
- Hurled to your death in a big ball of energy

Hey, Buff, it's been a long year.

From meeting Dracula...

...to hurling to your death.

Thank you for an exciting and heartfelt year.  I hope you're of sound mind and body after they resurrect you in Season 6 *shudder*.

"Oh ma gah, Buffy."

You've had a busy year as a college freshman in Season 4:
-  Riley is in, Angel is out.
-  You contended with an evil government organization, The Initiative, and a demonic Frankenstein cyborg named Adam.
-  Spike is back and made me laugh more than once.  Though i don't really care for where his character has gone.  i liked him more on the macho side.
-  Riley is cute and kinda humble.
- And oh, how i mourned when Oz left (well, more like teared up and had to sit down to finish the episode during a cooking fiesta).  Oz was one of my fave characters.
- The last episode was perplexing and extraneous.
- Enjoyed the episodes that were different, like "Hush," where no one could speak on account of The freaky Gentlemen.






Ready to see where Season 5 takes the Scooby Gang!

Buffy, quite the adventures you've had in Season 3.  Always witty, always entertaining.

Of course, she saved the world yet again, this time from the very entertaining Sunnydale mayor who transformed into a giant bug demon. Fun!

Didn't really enjoy the Faith saga - she was an annoying tough girl.  Alas, Buffy had to grow up and kill her... so sad.

But oh Angel, you've taken the high road to leave town so Buffy can live on.

Graduation = achieved.  And on to UC Sunnydale in season 4.  Let's see how Buffy finds college.  And i hope Spike visits.

Buffy, oh Buffy.  You've had a hard year.

i (almost) cried (ok, so it was just a little eye moisture) when you lost Angel the first time, then again when you drove the blessed blade through his stomach.  Not saying he didn't deserve it, but oh, sweet, terrible love.  How awful to kill him just when he'd gotten his soul back.  Oh, how the twisting, agonizing plots of the teenage years tear you up.  Cuz that's the kind of stuff i was facing when i was 17 -- where should i volunteer to improve my high school resume? will i finally make it into the National Honor Society? will the band director ever stop glaring at me for dropping out to focus on getting a life?

Angelus, you're just so evil and sometimes cute.  Spike, i hope you're back next season, cuz you're fun.  Never expected to be hooked on Buffy, especially since i used to think it was beneath my TV attention... did we even have a TV when Buff was popular?

Well, i'm looking forward to season 3... more brooding close-ups of Buffy's pouty face, the increase in Willow's sassiness, love conflicts, Seth Green, and of course, more vampires!  Let's see what Buff's 18th birthday brings.

Ok, so i'm admitting it for all to read.  i've been watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer - the TV series.  And... i like it.

Buffy's Crew - Season 1

Not a program i've watched before, except for the occasional Angel episode, so i'm mocking myself for even queueing it up on Netflix.  Really, Buffy.  The movie was cute, but i'm much too sophisticated to get addicted to the show.  Now, Firefly, that's quality programming.  But i really enjoy Joss Whedon's work, so i gave it a shot as background material while scrapbooking.

The last week, she's been battling vampires and all sorts of necrofiliacs, while i'm happily scrapbooking away on Project Life.  In fact, i finished season 1 in a Project Life marathon on Saturday (ok, it's not my fault that Project Life pages are divided into a million pockets and figuring out the best way to display the 300+ pictures of a recent--and so very magical--Disney vacation takes forever).

Buffy = silly, vampire hunting teenager with a mean kick

Buffy of course reigns supreme at the end of Season 1, defeating the Vampire Master and single-handedly saving the planet from sudden doom!  

Buffy, what kinds of vamps and demons will you fight in Season 2?  And can we see more of hunky Angel?  And Spike, when do you enter the picture?  Oh, the thrill!
