Irish has been watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer through from Season 1 and I've been watching with him when I'm home. We're started Season 7 last night. ( Read more... )
Great thoughts - I have never liked Xander - there are one or two fics that I find him OK - but mostly, for the reasons you say, he is not a nice person.
That is one of the reasons I still love BtVS ... strong characters - good or bad.
I started a re-watch, then got side-tracked by Vampire Diaries. Now I have finished those 3 seruies, I must get back to BtVS ... still in season 1.
I love your thoughts on Buffy and Angel, I really have no constructive things to say tho, apart from I hated season 5 I loved all of Angel and Buffy was good too, but they were more shows I watched and accepted rather than were hooked on to a great degree, does that make sense? I liked Angel as a show more tho.
I accepted Xander as a hormone-driven, immature teenage boy, and I even liked him most of the time. For all his faults, he was a good friend to Willow and Buffy and would have given his life for them. Some friends are annoying, but they have your back. And I had to consider that Xander was in love with Buffy--or at least, infatuated--and that colored his interactions with other males over her. Still, when his dreams came true, and Buffy propositioned him while under a spell, he was decent and turned her down, because she wasn't in control. I give him major points for that
