Anyone know what Saturday was? OK, so I didn’t either till someone retweeted it on Twitter, but this past Saturday was the 15th anniversary of the first episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer! Since I’m currently working my way through the series, I thought I’d do this week’s Media Monday to celebrate.
Even though I’m only about halfway through season 3, I am loving this show! I was still in elementary school when it first aired, so there was no way my parents would have let me watch it then. Even though it is that old, watching it through now I feel like it might as well be a current show. Despite the occasional pop culture reference and the obviously outdated hair and clothing styles, the majority of the show is still relevant. I still relate to Buffy even though she’s now younger than I am (on the show at least).
So here’s to Buffy – there’s still a strong fanbase after 15 years, and that’s saying something!
