About a million years ago, in a mostly-forgotten semi-legendary epoch now called "The Nineties", I was a huge Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan.

You know, a proper fan. I'd arrange my social life around the show airing on TV. I'd rush out to the shops as soon as each season's box set (on VHS!) was released. I'd spend ages discussing the show with other Buffy nerds on Usenet and email lists.

But I haven't rewatched it for close on quarter of a century. And I've just taken delivery of the full box set on DVD. 39 disks. 144 episodes.

Anyway, while I'm losing myself back in Sunnydale, I was wondering if I should toot or blog my way through it. Any interest?

My head cannon is that the reason more people didn't flee Sunnydale en masse is that the next big city over was Angel Grove, and the populace of Sunnydale was just like "yes, there are vampires and occasionally demons, but there's never been a 150 foot tall Sphinx or Pumpkin Monster wandering through downtown, so..."

I just had the most interesting feeling while watching this S7 intro for #Buffy.

That HAPPENED. That great show really existed. We had that. And we still do. And it makes me all fluttery to think about even after all these years.

Is that weird? Probably.

And it's definitely not a dis against all the other great shows since then -- not at all. Just... man this was a really special space.

Insane to think I once thought it was WB teen crap. If I'd never been forced to tape it on VHS for someone one evening I'd probably never have become a fan. 😅
