Buffy

Camy here, exposing my geek side (like that’s a surprise).

I’m currently watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer the series on DVD. I just started season 2 and I love it!

I’m not sure why I like it so much. Maybe because Buffy:

(a) kicks butt
(b) looks good kicking butt
(c) loves Angel, aka David Boreanaz, who is just hotness on wheels
(d) has a smart answer for everything
What’s not to like???

Seriously, the series has been entertaining so far. I have been warned that it tanks later, but for now, I am in a happy bubble of entertained joy (hint: don’t burst it).

And I just saw the episode where Oz (Seth Green) experiences love at first sight with Willow, the ultimate geek girl, and I am SO rooting for her to get such a cool guy!

I heard he’s a werewolf. I hope that’s true.

I think I am just hoping the geek gets the guy for a change. (Maybe that’s why I love the TV show Chuck so much.)

Any Buffy fans out there?

OH MY GOSH, I LOVE BUFFY! I'm a total freak, I know. I like Charmed, Buffy, anything with strong women kicking some demon butt! LOL.

I don't have the Buffy DVDs, but I think I've seen every episode twice over the years.

It kinda goes along with my genre, though..so I guess it's no surprise.

Oh my goodness! Girl, I am CRAZY about Buffy. I own season 1, 2, and 3! I have dozens of the comic books and also two sets of paper dolls (what can I say I dated a comic book geek back in the day). Oz was possibly my favorite character of them all. Angel was hot, but Oz just had so much appeal for his charm and sense of humor and of course who wouldn't love Xander. :) One of my faves totally. The series kind of got lame the last three or so seasons, but that was fine by me, I got into Angel then. :) Happy watching.

Camy...you rock.

LOL thanks Lynn and Kelly! Good to know I'm in good company re: Buffy.

Lynn, I heard that about the last few seasons of Buffy, but it's good to know Angel takes up the slack.

I've loved Buffy from way back.. and I liked it all the way through.. My favorite is the show where they did the whole thing as a musical.

Nobody has mentioned how great Giles is!!!
And I started really liking Spike despite myself near the end.

If you decide you really like Spike when you are done with the DVDs, Camy, try "Halfway to the Grave" The Night Huntress series. Not at all inspirational, but the main male character, Bones, is a dead ringer for Spike.. though the author says that wasn't her intent. But her heroine REALLY kicks butt.

Thanks for the recommendation, Crystal! And I agree, Spike is VERY cool! I really like him despite the fact he's the bad guy.

I am not a Buffy fan, but I am a huge Chuck fan! You should try the show Eureka on SciFi. It rocks.

OMG I LOVE Eureka! That's got to be one of the funniest series I've watched. My geek side is really showing.
