Welcome to the Hellmouth

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the brain child of Mr Joss Wedon.  This blog is in no way associated with the man, but my own musings.  All footage, quotes and stills belong to him.

So who is she?  The one known as the slayer?  Buffy Anne Summers moved to Sunnydale after being thrown out of her last school.  Hemery high - the gym went up in flames! And why??  Because of all the vampires, of course.  So Buffy comes to Sunnydale.  At first refusing to admit that she is who the 'new' librarian believes she is.  - The Slayer -

"Well its not like, you're having the dreams" Giles says.  Buffy is not impressed.  She wants to stay away from those vamps ok?  She wants to fit in.  Have a normal teenage girl existence.  Apparently she came to the wrong town.

Speculation here, did she come to the Sunnydale, because coincidentally, her mother landed a job in the museum in the town with one of the deadliest hellmouths OR do we was the Summers clan dragged to Sunnydale by powers we just don't want to fathom.

Buffy could be the cool kid.  She was the coolest at Hemery, but this changes when she realises her fate as the Slayer. Unconsciously, she knows she can't be too cool, if she disappears a lot of the time, and 'patrolling' after the sun goes down.

If she had stuck to the bitchiness of the Cordy world, Buffy would have been the original mean girl.  The show's dynamic would have completely have changed.  Of course, its always three isn't it?  Harry Potter, Supernatural, Doctor Who and Sherlock spring to mind.  So of course: Buffy starts with Xander and Willow.  Even in the end, when there is a lot of hanger-ons, its still them three.

This first day, Buffy chooses Willow over Cordy.  They have that moment, at the water cooler, where Buffy knows (not understanding why, of course) that she needs to be friends with this girl. That this girl will help save th world with her in the future. It was more of Willow, than Xander. 

We meet the master, who is the evil ancient vampire dude who exudes badness. As a 15 year old girl, damn. Scary! 

So we're introduced to Willow, the ultra nerdy girl who is wonderful from day one ("Deliver" - ha ha) and Xander, the equally nerdy boy with his sights on the newbie blonde! We also are introduced to Jesse,who comes to his untimely death...And Cordi, she's a mega bitch! But we love her! Every town needs a Cordy!

We meet Darla in the first five minutes! How awesome is she?

And then, of course, there is Angel! Hot, spunky and the epitome of brooding Vampire, with a soul! Gees, who saw that coming? And not a sparkle in him...thank God!
