Content warning: Buffy The Vampire Slayer
But mostly I have re-watched Buffy.
If you include Angel, and surely you must, then there's more than 250 episodes in Buffy's world and they're all great. Actual best TV show ever made. Haven't rewatched it since the naughties.
Watched about 150 episodes in the last 3 weeks. 😆
It starts well, reaches a good stride in season two and then gets entirely great around the end of S3 when Ayna turns up and creates the Bored Vampire Willow. Buffy S5 with Glory is the absolute peak. Glory is magnificent.
All the main characters are amazing all the way through, and evolve and grow instead of sticking the same as with most TV. They aren't static caricatures.
The plots story and writing is brilliant, the special effects mostly just rubber masks which age better than any CGI does.
There's vampires and slayers and witches in my dreams and I am loving it.
Nothing since has touched it.
The 16x9 cut of the first two seasons is badly framed though. Watch the 4x3 original TV frame size for sure.
