Buffy the Vampire Slayer!


Televisions best director in his finest show!  The vampire show that was about so much more than vampires!  The great 'biting' experience of adolescent, we watched the Scooby Gang grow, evolve and mature.  Great plots with incredibly witty and memorable dialogue, the show was a seven year trip through high school and young adulthood.  Xander, the everyman,,,,,Willow, the sensitive intelligent girl who grew into powers of witchcraft, and presented one of TV's best lesbian relationships....Cordelia, the snobby beauty queen who grew into so much more...Buffy, the slayer who just wanted to be a real teen sometimes, but refused to let her friends down.  So many many more, including the hearthrob vampires, Angel and Spike.

I am a huge fan of the show, and I am glad it is our first drama to break through.  If you haven't seen it, give it a try.  I think you will be pleasantly surprised.


So congratulations, Buffy the Vampire Slayer!  You now occupy the premier third spot on our imaginary Hall of Fame mantle piece.  Huzzah!
