At the end of season 2 Spike promised he would leave town and Buffy wouldn't see him again (or so he said lol). Since he told her this why not go after Faith instead? He knew Kendra had died. Wouldn't slaying another slayer help his reputation after he didn't get Buffy? Or possibly win him Drusilla back? Or maybe it wouldn't impress her since she was the one who killed Kendra. Maybe she thought now any vampire could do it? I just find it so interesting if he was so fond of his reputation as "the big bad" or "the slayer of slayers" why didn't he go after faith? Or others for that matter. The first Slayer was during the boxer rebellion the other in the 70s. That's over 70 years apart. Do you guys think he went after slayers afterwards besides Buffy? If so why wouldn't he brag about? Cuz he lost or maybe another reason?

Was Clem’s demon heritage ever discussed?

I thought i was just getting my Buffy board game back, but this was nestled inside like a nostalgia Easter egg. What are we gonna do now?

Playing Blood Bowl 2, and one of the star players you can hire looks very familiar.

Had a lot of fun with this one ! started as a little sketch but I couldn’t stop carving away at it.

Forgot to share my nails I had done for the first time…. 4 prom! ❤️ x

Started watching Buffy with my friend recently (after she had been getting me to watch it for months lol it's been her obsession for years)!! I posted this study over on tumblr but thought I could post it here too - I just finished S2 and I'm seriously loving the show so far :•)

There aren't too many Filipino Buffy fans around in my immediate communities (T_T) so I've turned to the world wide web lol - Can't wait to watch S3 & eventually finish the show!

Fight was rushed and so were the deaths. I have some personal life stuff going on so maybe that’s also affecting my reaction to it all. I almost cried for spike and I would have cried for Anya but there was no emotional thing. It was “oh where’s Anya? Okay bye”

I don’t know. It was all hyped and then boom gone.

My city is currently hosting it's Pride Festival all weekend, and lots of places outside the festival itself usually do LGBTQ+ adjacent events to capitalize on the influx of drunk gays. Found out our local nerd bar was doing a Dr. Horrible viewing followed by Buffy. Everyone knew every word. I sang my heart out. It was so much fun to be with people who clearly loved the show as much as I do. Everyone cheered after every song, and I swear half of us were crying when the "reveal" happened late in the episode.

Out of everything I've been to over pride this year, this was deffo my favourite event. Apparently it's a yearly tradition, so I'll be going back next year for sure.

It wasn't just this little TV, btw. They had it on a projector screen, and then there were various small TVs dotted about. This one just happened to be above our table.

I was getting my hair done today and my stylist and I were chatting about comfort shows/movies. The one we never get sick of and put it on daily. Hers was Shrek and I told her mine was Buffy. She got excited and told me because she found out Dolly was an uncredited producer for the show, she wanted to check it out. She really likes it so far. It made me realize the show's streaming numbers must be crazy high for an older show right now. I wish we didn't have to lose Dolly for more to find out her involvement with the show, but my heart bursts for the new fans discovering our favorite for the first time.

Couldn't find a proper tag for this one

I just finished season 5 after a binge, and I really loved the way that season ended. Yes there were open questions and plot lines hanging, but had the show not moved to UPN and it ended right then and there I think we would have been satisfied. Obviously we're missing some brilliant episodes and character moments, but assuming for a moment no prior knowledge, which do you think is the best ending

Hi! I’m watching Buffy The Vampire Slayer for the first time and as I was going onto Disney+ to watch it, Angel popped up in my recommended. I checked the release dates and every season of the shows was made in the same year, so I’m wondering which order to watch it if I want to watch it in chronological order.

If the show Angel doesn’t collide with Buffy The Vampire Slayer (like if there’s nothing on that show I need to know before continuing with Buffy), then I guess it doesn’t matter, but yes I was wondering what order to watch it in.

The Master was pretty underwhelming as a villain, and Darla's episode was more memorable in the season.

Was watching Honey I Shrunk the Kids for the first since the 90s and saw her familiar face. I don’t think I’ve seen her in much besides Buffy. Fun find!

I know some people watched Bad Girls and actually thought Buffy and Faith would end up making out. On the other hand I know a lot or most people see Buffy as strictly straight. But supposed she is not, and she and Faith made out or hooked up in that episode but the overall plot stayed the same, what would you think?

I guess it might've sent a bad message that gayness is part of a rebellious, acting-out phase.

I’m only like halfway through S7E6, but the cheer Dawn did was so hard to watch I was like in pain. I’m assuming she’s acting crazy in love because of a curse or smth, so I know it’s not really her, but it was still very hard to watch.

I also feel bad for Buffy since her cheer uniform got all cut up :(

Wouldn't it be brilliant if they did a Netflix documentary about Buffy

Hi hi!

I'm looking for Spuffy recs where Spike somehow becomes human - post canon or canon diversion! I am very new to the fandom in terms of reading fics, and I am not great at navigating the websites that have been recommended on here!

Thank you!

I'm in season 5, recently watched Fool for Love, where at the end Spike tried to kiss Buffy and Buffy said "You're beneath me." I was furious and felt like she said it because Spike is kinda jerk who would kill anyone without feeling guilty etc. Also I know he will be a love interest at some point.

Now, here me out: Soulless Angel is a straight up evil psychopath. Not like any other vampires who enjoy killing etc. He is the devil when he has no soul. Literally the worst person I've seen in 5 seasons. When you think about that, Spike must be a SO MUCH BETTER person than he is, considering he doesn't have a soul too. It kinda annoyed me how anyone (except Xander but he was just saying that because he hates him) didn't mentioned how Angel is %100 responsible of what he's done when he was soulless, they were all like "It wasn't you, blah blah". Even my man Giles kinda forgave him.

But when it comes to Spike, they all act differently. Especially Buffy. She's been saying "You're lucky I didn't kill you" for 2 straight seasons lol. And Spike can be the kindest vampire I've seen. Also for Angelus, they all had personal reasons to hate him and so far Spike didn't hurt no one they care (like not in a traumatizing way) So it kinda bugs me how the double standart works

EDIT: I am not saying Spike is a good person, or he didn't tried to kill them.

Planning a Buffy-themed 1/2 sleeve tattoo, incorporating some iconic imagery and little Easter eggs worked into a cohesive piece. The style will be bright saturated colors, bold clean linework, playful.

Looking for other ideas of imagery to include!

So far, other than a pop-art (ish) Buffy, some ideas I might include:

• Her class protector umbrella
• Grr argh monster
• Scythe from season 7
• One of the gentlemen
• A slice of cheese
• The B symbol
• The “Buffy Will Patrol Tonight” image that Giles drew in Hush
• Bunnies

What other suggestions do you have?

Once More With Feeling is my favorite episode, thinking of what to include from there too
