No show this side of Seinfeld loves the language of conversation (the wisecrack, the pun, the withering retort, and the muttered aside) as much. ... Week in and week out, Buffy just slays me.

The winsome Sarah Michelle Gellar is a huge improvement over bubblehead Kristy Swanson as the new Buffy, moving with her mom to the "one-Starbucks town" of Sunnydale, Calif. She's cute and pert but nobody's fool. [10 Mar 1997, p.3D]

This supernatural series has fast, raucous music, attractive heroes and heroines, and nifty morphing effects for the vampires.

For fans of youth shows, occult shows and action shows, this new, weekly Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the right program at the right time. [10 Mar 1997, p.70]

A pretty lively and entertaining show, maybe the fledgling WB network's first real shot at a breakaway hit. [10 Mar 1997, p.10E]

The results are mighty ragged in the series opener. The show takes strange shifts in tone, the dialogue isn't campy enough, and the violence grows tiresome.

When I was 11 I was hooked on Buffy The Vampire Slayer, it was fun and smart and I found Sarah Michelle Gellar really sexy. At 17, I don't watch it as much, as I am so busy with schoolwork and music commitments, but on top of my film watching, one of my favourite hobbies, I like to watch Buffy. And I think it is great, true Season 1 starts off a little rocky, but it gets better and better, and by the time we get to Season 5 we have more intelligent dialogue, more gripping story lines and the acting is even better at this point. Out of the later episodes, one that surprised me hugely was "Once More with Feeling". I was sceptical initially at how it would work, but it did, no matter how laughable it seemed at the time. The music was great, and the singing was surprisingly tuneful. Back to talking about Buffy in general, the theme song is funky and totally kicks ass. Then there is the suitably Gothic photography and the above average special effects and make up. Also, Buffy benefits from really good story lines, good dialogue and characters that we like and love. Buffy is a great and resourceful heroine, and the sexy Sarah Michelle Gellar does a great job in the role. Nicolas Brendan is appealing also as Xander, I confess when I was younger I had a slight crush on him, David Boreanaz is a brooding Angel, Seth Green is a likable Oz and James Marsters is a great Spike. On tops, I really like Alyson Hannigan as Willow, it is a shame though that she hasn't done anything particularly good since, and Anthony Head is wonderful as the benevolent Giles. And also Michelle Trachtenberg judging by this, Ice Princess and Harriet the Spy has all the means of being a promising actress in the future. As characters, even the villains are interesting. Overall, I love Buffy The Vampire Slayer. 10/10 Bethany Cox

It has all...Humor, Drama, Action, Romance, Characters development, Plot twists, Good ost, quatable dialogues, Morals, Innovation, Beauty, Gothic atmosfere....
Some season are better than others but it became important for so many people for a reason.

Almost everyone with a TV binging habit goes through a 'Buffy' phase. This TV show is perhaps the most influential piece of media in history. It set the bar for episodic storytelling and quality of production back in the nineties and that influence is still being felt today. Buffy The Vampire Slayer has something for everyone. I truly believe that every episode resonates personally with at least one person and that each season is written to perfection. (except any episode with Riley in it 'cause he just stinks)

No sauce. This feeble attempt at making people horny only made plenty of us disgusted and contemptuous.

Oh... I don't like it. I just don't. I guess I wished for more from it, but I guess I just didn't get it.
