  🧛‍♀️ Why Buffy the Vampire Slayer Still Works Today 🧂 There are plenty of television shows from the 1990s that haven't aged particularly well. The clothes look strange, the technology looks ancient, and some of the storylines make you wonder what everyone was thinking. But then there's Buffy the Vampire Slayer . Somehow, more than two decades after the series ended, Buffy still has something that keeps people watching. 1. Buffy feels like a real person This is probably the biggest reason. Buffy isn't perfect. She's brave, but she gets scared. She's powerful, but she gets hurt. She's confident, but she sometimes doubts herself. She can be funny one minute and deeply emotional the next.

  🧛‍♀️ Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Why SMG Will Always Be One of the Salty Favourites There are television characters who become popular, and then there are characters who become icons . Buffy Summers belongs firmly in the second category. When Buffy the Vampire Slayer arrived on television, nobody could have known just how big the show would become. What started as a slightly unusual idea about a teenage girl fighting vampires, demons and assorted supernatural nasties turned into one of the most loved cult television shows of its generation. And at the centre of it all was SMG — Sarah Michelle Gellar — as Buffy Summers . For the BigSaltyDog, Buffy deserves a proper salute. 🧂🧛‍♀️ The girl who could kick vampire backside Buffy wasn't your typical television heroine. She wasn't a huge, muscle-bound action hero who walked around looking miserable all the time. She was a young woman who could be funny, sarcastic, emotional, frightened and occasionally completely fe...
