	Buffy the Vampire Slayer - PopCultureReference (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Buffy (played by Sarah Michelle Gellar) is "The Slayer", one in a long line of (often short-lived) young girls chosen by fate to battle the forces of darkness.
		Buffy is credited (alongside the teen drama Dawson's Creek) with playing a key role in the success of the Warner Brothers television network in its early years, which bring up the question of why the network dropped the popular television show.
		Swedish: "Buffy and vampyrerna" ("Buffy and The Vampires"); "slayer" is "dråpare" ("slayer"), and "watcher" is "väktare" ("watchman").

		Buffy and her pals seemed more worldly -- and were a lot more interesting -- when they were high schoolers saving their town from evil.
		Alas, she has no clue that Riley is a member of the fascistic Initiative, which is headed by Maggie Walsh (Lindsay Crouse), Buffy's chilly, formidable Psych 101 professor (on the first day of classes, the prof warned her students that all the teaching assistants call her "the evil bitch monster of death").
		The Initiative's creepy commando raids, and its vast underground base where demons and vampires are taken for experiment and study, are a bit too "X-Files"-y, too elaborately conspiratorial, for "Buffy" -- they're a far cry from the show's usual agile humor and stealthy plot twists.

		The Initiative, a government-sponsored ultra high-tech commando center specializing in capturing and studying demons, vampires, and other things that go slay in the night, turns out to be located beneath the college campus.

		They may be beginning Slayers or Watchers, or more ordinary individuals like Xander (often referred to as the "Zeppo," a reference to the least useful member of the Marx Brothers gang) yet while they have fewer points to spend on their various stats, they have more drama points than the Hero type.
		The mechanics of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer RPG are an ultra-streamlined version of Eden's Unisystem, and the limited number of skills and fast game play reflect both this and the feel of the series.
		The default for this is a Slayer and her Scooby gang, which may or may not be in Sunnydale.

		Buffy worried that her strength would intimidate Riley, but he thought she was simply incredible.
		He became paranoid and violent, suspecting Buffy of Maggie's murder, but when he was taken to an Initiative hospital, he clung to a scarf she had given him as if it were a lifeline.
		In a misguided effort to try to understand the pull that the darker aspects of Buffy's life seemed to have on her, Riley allowed himself to be bitten by a vampire.

		Buffy and her mom just want a fresh start in their new, suburban California home, where the good part of town is half a block away from the bad part of town.
		Buffy, of course, is an only child, but the brilliant thing was the way the show continued for several episodes as if Dawn, Buffy's new sister, had always been a part of the family.
		Buffy's intense and heartfelt gratitude signals a change in attitude on the part of the Scoobies, and hints that behavior and compassion are as much a mark of someone becoming good (despite being a vampire) as having a soul (in the case of Angel).

		Not to mention Buffy's brutal fight with Faith, which leaves the latter in a coma and the former something to consider: in order to defeat Faith, Buffy had to acknowledge the same darkness within her that spurred Faith on.
		The series could've ended there, with the last shot of Buffy's gravestone reading simply 'she saved the world a lot' being all that was needed to stay true to the characters as well as being a definitive conclusion.
		A bitter and very public contractual battle between Joss Whedon and the WB network ensued during the 5th season, and while Buffy did indeed die, there seemed to be no doubt to Whedon that she would return, regardless of whether the WB would be broadcasting the new episodes or a competitor.

		Buffy and Willow started college, where they met new characters like Riley, the All-American Boy with a double life, and Tara, the sweet stuttering witch; but Xander and Giles found themselves at something of a loose end.
		Several characters were subjected to the radical re-envisioning possible in a show that deals with the supernatural: the blond vampire Spike came back and soon found himself with an inhibitor chip in his head, forced into reluctant alliance with Buffy; the former vengeance demon Anya became passionately smitten with Xander.
		The whole thing's based around a government organisation called 'the Initiative' which fights demons and vampires etc. Unfortunately they end up way out of their depth and unleash an incredibly deadly monster upon sunnydale.
