For years, I’ve nodded in agreement asBuffywas brought up in conversations about great shows.
Because I’m finally watchingBuffy the Vampire Slayer.
You know, once she finishes her homework.

(Spoiler: She never finishes her homework.)
Because let me make one thing clear: I understand its impact.
And that brings us to season 1.
I’m not going to lie: It took me longer than I expected to get intoBuffy.
Then I watched the next few episodes and took another break.
This is not to say Buffy needs a romance.
(I did, however, love Giles from day one.)
And when the principal gets in their way, they eat him!!!
As if being a teen isn’t already hard enough.
After all, it’s the ’90s, and she can do both!
Episode I’d least like to live inside:The one with the fumigation party.
“Fumigation” and “party” are two words that should never go together.
Favorite episode:As stated above, “Angel.”
Give me a brooding man and a badass woman, and I will root for them until I die.
Alright, I’ve got to get back to watching.
As Buffy says, “If the apocalypse comes, beep me!”
(But not really, I’m useless with a stake.
And I don’t have a beeper because it’s 2020.)
