I liked it, but it's pretty slow paced and heavy.

"Buffy Summers was the absolute best character on the series. Obviously, being the title character, it's predictable to say this. "

No, it really isn't. There are so many shows where the main character is the least interesting character for having plot armour or being written as a writer's self-insert, but Buffy has never been on that list.

She's multi-faceted enough that even at her worst, she's still the best character because always holds herself accountable for her actions. She puts in actual effort to do good and be better, and for someone who has so much power and influence, that is not always easy. Especially after her resurrection, when her job as Slayer was over. It was over the second that Kendra was called, but Buffy took her calling seriously and sacrificed the two (TWO!! DAMNNIT!!) outs she was given to protect the world, and she never held a grudge for how ungrateful her friends are about it. How could you not love a character like that?

I agree. Sometimes I end up like the supporting characters more than the main character.

Technically three outs! She was accepted to Northwestern, and even though Faith was there (before she went crazy and started killing people) Buffy was like "No, I have to do this."
SO PERFECT. <3

I agree. I rewatched the series recently and was struck at how empathetic Buffy was, especially compared to her friends.

ASH did Repo! Lol that's the only other thing I've seen him in.

Emma Caulfield did Timer which I remember thinking was cute but I haven't seen it since it came out.

I can't believe Druscilla is almost 60! Crazy.

Amber Benson and James Marsters did a movie together, and she directed it. It was pretty ok.

And I remember watching SMG in Simply Irresistible, that I yesterday found out is a rip off of Like Water For Chocolate.

I kinda watch Seal Team, DB's character is pretty boring and I fast forward through most of it, because I only watch it for the ships.

I actually saw that movie, although I can't remember a damn thing about it except that the guy who played Lorne was in it, too, RIP, and said "I'm pretty gay."
