  Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Buffy is often aided by her Watcher and her loyal circle of friends, dubbed the "Scooby Gang".
Buffy is told in a dual arc serialized format, with each episode both telling a single story and contributing to a larger overall storyline, which on Buffy is broken down into distinct season-long narratives marked by the rise and defeat of a powerful antagonist (commonly referred to as the "Big Bad").
Buffy and her companions also fight a wide variety of demons, as well as ghosts, gods, zombies, and evil humans, and are frequently called upon to save the world from complete destruction.

 Salon Entertainment | Joyce Millman On Television: Buffy
In the last episode of the season, Buffy was framed for murder, got kicked out of school, had a mega-fight with Mom, rescued her mentor, Giles, from a vampire torture chamber and saved the world from getting sucked into the mouth of hell by running a ritual sword through her relapsed bloodsucker ex-boyfriend Angel.
Right at the moment when Buffy was getting ready to spear his internal organs, the curse was lifted and Angel was back to his old self again and he got all weepy and told her he loved her, but she had to skewer him anyway to finish the world-saving ritual.
Buffy is literally a freak, and Willow, Xander and Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), the snob who lost face with the in-crowd when she started making out in broom closets with Xander, are shunned by their classmates.

 Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Theologian of the Year
Buffy, a high school student (now in college) in Sunnydale, Calif., discovers that she's the vampire slayer, and that her town sits on a "hellmouth" where demons are constantly trying to make an opening to escape from perdition.
The symbol is prominent in the show's opening, and Buffy wears a cross as a symbol of her role as a slayer.
In short, Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a parable, a postmodern morality play in which Buffy is a Christ figure, her Scooby Gang is the church and the vampires and demons represent the variety of temptation and moral hazards we all encounter in life.

Granted, as with all cultists, Buffy the Vampire Slayer fans were often forced to defend themselves to the uninitiated.
Too often dismissed as a teen show or a genre show, Buffy was a well-acted and often brilliantly written comedy/drama that, under its fantasy guise, treated the pains and joys of life with admirable and sometimes shocking realism.
At heart, the vampires Buffy and her friends fought were metaphors for the monsters we all face — particularly in high school, where every decision seems like life and death, and every problem seems like the end of the world.

I'm not just saying that all the essays which critique the flaws of BTVS are bad, for example, one basically proposes that Buffy creates a facist state, and it is very well written even though I don't agree with the premise.
As a former Ph.D. student in philosophy and a huge fan of Buffy and all things pertaining to the Buffyverse, this seemed to be a book not merely down my alley, but on the street where I live.
My recommendation for any Buffy fan is to read either of the other two anthologies first, then perhaps look at the array of essays available on the www.slayage.tv website, and then, if not yet sated, turn to this collection.

 'Buffy' premiere on UPN lacks bite
Yes, even loyal "Buffy" fans were stunned and outraged when it happened, particularly because the WB, which had lost the show to its rival UPN in a heated bidding war, called it a "series finale" instead of "season finale" and put a tag at the end thanking the show for its long run.
Buffy fans -- and they are all die-hards -- will forgive her less-than- scintillating return.
But others who might have been lured by the hype are going to tune out scratching their heads over the fuss, and probably choose something else instead.

 Vampire Smackdown: "Buffy" to UPN
UPN announced late Friday that it has sealed a two-year, $102 million deal with Buffy producer 20th Century Fox Television, ending months of speculation over whether Sarah Michelle Gellar's bloodsucker-battling heroine would leave the WB, her home since Buffy premiered in March 1997.
The announcement comes as a shock to many: Although Buffy is not the WB's highest-rated show (it's actually third-highest, behind 7th Heaven and Charmed), the series was one of the network's earliest signature hits, boasting a rabidly devoted following from teen and young-adult women.
In a statement released Friday, the WB said it was no coincidence that UPN's Buffy announcement came just a day after the FCC loosened restrictions on network ownership, which would allow Fox (which has a pending merger with former UPN co-owner Chris-Craft) to merge with UPN.
