Out of curiosity, is there a community focussed on Buffy the Vampire Slayer? For context, my girlfriend is a massive fan, and the addition of one might get her more interested in Lemmy, instead of big tech social media.

    There isn’t, but you can always add one. I seriously considered adding one myself a while back, and then thought I would be the only person in it, posting “Dawn’s in trouble, must be Tuesday” or “Five by five” over and over.

      Spooky season is a good time to get a rewatch going. Do a weekly episode guide or something.

      Five by Five

        There’s no season for a re-watch. There’s some Freevee or something channel that is Buffy running 24/7, runs about a season a day, which for the last few months was my go-to background TV.

        I would start a comm and just do hot takes on random things. Mostly about the failings of Season 6 and how Joss Whedon was the real villain all along.

    [off topic?]

    Drusilla appears in the novel Anno Dracula One Thousand Monsters.

    A version of Buffy appears in Johnny Alucard.

    Both by Kim Newman.

      Oh, the Buffy Universe is much larger. Thanks to the transitive power of prop re-use and producers doing funny nods to random things in a period when they thought no one cared, Buffy and Angel are in the Tommy Whesphall universe.

      Buffy’s in the same universe as Friends, MASH, Dexter, Ghostbusters, Andor/Star Wars, Sex and the City, Indiana Jones, Star Trek, The Office, NCIS, The Muppets, Law and Order, and hundreds more.

        I can see “Law & Oder : Muppets.”

        Do we have Miss Piggy play the sexy ADA or the tough-as-nails investigator?

        Sam The Eagle as the Judge.

        Fozzy as the paramedic who pronounces them dead.
