I think Buffy the Vampire Slayer is an amazing series. Yes, there are ups and downs which makes for a very realistic show. Growing up is hard and dealing with monsters and vampires just adds to the nightmares of high school. Yes it’s technically a horror series however it has comedy, drama and real life situations to deal with. I would say overall it’s worth your time. So take a chance and give it a go! What do you have to lose but time and the discovery of a great series!
