Look! Somebody who hates Buffy so much he made a whole screen name just to
flame her. We need to respect him.
Two of the greatest mysteries in the world -
1) Life - how did it happen?
2) Why is it that flamers can never spell...and like wrestling. Damned eerie.

I've watched allot of television in my short life and I can only stand a
handful of the stuff thats on television today, and I have to say the best
show on television right now is Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Thats right Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the best show on television.
Joss Whedon( creator, producer,writer, some times director) is amazing, he
is one of the brightest men in television.
The show's writing, is funny, smart, interesting,creative and intriguing.
The stories are planned out extremely well in advance by Joss Whedon and are
really exiting
The acting is great.
Everything is great.
The theme song is even awesome(like thats important)the best and coolest
theme song on t.v..
Angel is a vampire
Buffy is a slayer
Buffy lets not get Angel layed anymore get him slayed.
Cool guy
I've only started to watch the show a month and a half ago and I have to say
Buffy is the best show on tv.
Lets not forget about Sarah Michelle Gellar. What a babe

Um, exactly what has that got to do with the Critic?
Is someone involved in the producing side of it that was in the Critic.
Oh, and the Critic (1st season) had the best theme music, actually.

Close, but no cigar.
The top 5 shows on TV in my view. But the top three are so close, you
could put a cup over them and they'd all fit.
B5
X Files
Buffy
NYPD Blue
Millennium
main reasons in common? Great writing, fine acting, super action and
they have created a compelling mythology that hangs together and makes
you want to know more. Tough times when any of these go off the air.
Best,

I can think of at least 10 shows that are better than Buffy.
One of them is The Critic.
Speaking of which, what in heck does your post have to do with
alt.tv.the-critic?
BTW, most of the dialogue in Buffy is as bad as in Full House and
Growing Pains. It's not even bad in that cheesy, endearing sort of
way...it's just bad. Buffy The Vampire Slayer is good for one thing
though: it puts me to sleep quickly.
Don't even make me start in on Dawson's Creek. If it was any good,
it would be able to stand on it's own, without Paula Cole and Third Eye
Blind's help.

Yep...if you like that "I look like everyone other generic blonde in
the industry" type. On the other hand, there's Alice from The Critic.

few good shows still on the air

I've been watching the show here in Canada for about half a year, I have
to say its second only too Larry Sanders.
David(Angel)is so hot, So.'s Nick(Xander)
It's the best at first I was like I'm not watching a show called Buffy the
Vampire Slayer but my friends talked me in to it, and I was so glad they
talked me in to watching it because there's so little on t.v.
Oh by the way not all the viewers are teens or 20 something's I'm 37!!!!

Buffy had its best ratings on Monday and Tuesday.
On Tuesday it had a national ratings of 5.2/8 In the top markets it had a
6.7/10.
Do you think the ratings will go up or down???
Joss Whedon your the best.

The X-Files? Yeah, right, as if!
Can't comment on NYPD Blue... But The X-Files and Millenium are generally
very well written, if wholly uninteresting. Buffy (of the three eps I've
seen so far) is extremely well-written - though nothing suggests it has any
sort of tangible "story arc". Sorry, but I think Gillian Anderson and
David Duchovney are appallingly bad actors; as far as B5 is concerned, it's
difficult to tell whether the actors in it are good or bad because the
dialogue is so atrocious (though the likes of Andreas Katsulas and Peter
Jurassic make it seem a whole lot better). JMS can certainly come up with
good stories... just the dialogue (perhaps he should just write fewer
episodes and redraft more).
Wanna know my top five (recent, American) shows? No? Well, here they are
anyway:
American Gothic
VR5
Nowhere Man
Dark Skies
Space Rangers
All, amazingly (or not), cancelled after one season. Says a lot for
America...

PS Buffy's around the tenth position...

Whats wrong with the WB, you watch wrestling on TNT right so its not on NBC
or ESPN, but you still watch wrestling!!!!

I don't care about Buffy the Vampyr Slayer so shut up.
I never watched it because there to many power ranger type shows.
Like a little ho can fight vampyrs please that girl is nasty that plays her
my dogs ass looks beter and people are saying there's great writing must in
joy the writing on beavis and butthead.
WB is for black people and im white so im not watching that crudy channel i
thought we already had BET.
What up with that homes and now a video from puff daddy and the family " yea
put your arms in the air say ho ho yea yea."
If Buffy was so good it will be on a normal network.
So shut up ill never watch the stupid show.
Im to smart to watch an brain drain show.
People who make the show should be shot and killed.

Yeah, I know it is a waste of time responding to trolls..but, really,
this startling display of your lack of literacy has me concerned.
Please, please, watch some Sesame Street, or maybe Barney if SS is too
advanced for you, practice your sentence construction, and get back to
us. Perhaps then we will all have some idea at least of what it is you

I never heard of Buffy the Vampire Slayer before until 2 weeks,and I'm
wondering is the show any good, would I like it.
Allot of you are talking about it so????
To give you some background
I'm 34 male ( is the show for a much younger age group, it kind of sounds
like it)
Some of the shows I like are Seinfeld, Larry Sanders, Law and Order,
Homicide, and the X files.
Would I like Buffy the Vampire Slayer?
When and where is it on?
What are the critics saying?

Hey I also like Seinfeld and Larry Sanders.
Sure you would like Buffy its a great show amazing acting, writing, stories.
Well in the States it used to be on Monday at 9:00 on the WB
Now it's on Tuesdays at 8:00pm.
What are the critics saying, well Buffy made TV Guides, Entertainment
Weekly's, and Time magazines top 10 lists for best of t.v. in 97.
On a pretty cool website www.ultimatetv.com/ It made #1 on their top 10
list.

Many of us think it's a wonderful show, but the only way you'd know if
you'd like it is by watching it yourself.

People of all ages seem to be watching. It's got enough intelligent
jokes and references to appeal to adults as well as younger folks.

It's on the WB network in the US at 8:00 p.m. Tuesdays. Check your local
listings for details. Not all areas in the US have WB channels, but if
you're a cable subscriber you may be able to see it that way. It's shown
on YTV in Canada, I have no idea what time.

Nearly every review I've read of it in newspapers & magazines has been

OK, enough with the crossposting, everyone. (Sympathetic waves to the
annoyed people on all the other ngs...) I just wanted to say that the
above post has to be one of the funniest things I've ever read. It's
satire, right? I mean, there really aren't humans who are this inbred
and stupid, are there? (Yeah, I know, the answer will sadden me.)
I've seen troll posts before, but this one takes the cake. It's a
milk running-out-of-the-nose laff riot.
OK, back to ignoring the troll. Sane people on all ngs, resume
discussing pertinent topics....
That is all.

that is no reason to go around putting down people because they do. As for your
comments on WB being a "balck network, what decade are you from? Get over
yourself. Buffy is so way better thanmost shows on TV. (As for Puff Daddy, if
you think he is so bad, how do you know enough to quote him?) Get a grip and

Well, duh.
Like people don't have the common sense to edit (as I did above so that
hopefully the BTVS posters will use the same courtesy and stop posting
here--about anything other than DC).

but this ain't one of 'em.

because it was great and Gary Cole is the best (I'm enjoying the Midnight
Caller re-runs on Yorkshire TV at the moment). Can't comment on Space
Rangers, and I hear Nowhere Man is good. But Dark Skies? I wanted to love
that series so much. The first few episodes showed a lot of promise, but
after that it got _really_ bad. It was pretty much unwatchable after a while.

But not as stupid as you apparently are. If you don't want to talk about
BTVS, then DON'T post to the alt.tv.buffy-v-slayer newsgroup.

Let's not start another cross-Atlantic war - but I don't think the typical
'Yank' (as you so eloquently put it) and the typical 'Euro-trash' (as I so
sarcastily put it) net user are much different. I see plenty of moronic
posts from uk addresses, don't think you're any better than this particular
poster above.
Please don't use this arena to post your ignorant and sad comments on
American culture, most of us have better things to do.

I'm not saying that its a defense for moronic posts, but if more people from
the uk were posting, there would be more stupid posts coming out of there.

Exactly. From what I've seen, .uk and .au users are far less likely
to post spam, binaries, or off topic threads.

Hmmm...Sarah Michelle Gellar or a cartoon...hmmm...tough choice. :-)
Light-hearted response, don't take me seriously, I loved the Critic when
it was on. If you don't think SMG's gorgeous, that's your opinion. No
probelm with it. I happen to think she is.

Spelling; "grammar."
Grammar: quote-offsetting "hot date" is inappropriate.

Absolutely correct.
Perhaps before you try to re-define English spelling and grammar in a
world-wide forum, you might wish to learn some? This would add some
minor degree of validity to your position when you start bad-mouthing
U.S. citizen over *their* grammar and spelling.

But fortunately you were able to decypher sense from the three errors of
punctuation, one typo, one spelling error and one grammatical error.
Unfortunately missing the basic tenet of the orignal post - the
incomprehensible nature of your fellow countrypersons literacy.

Perhaps, before you try to re-educate bad spellers in a world-wide
forum, you might wish to learn how to proofread? This would prevent
simple errors like dropped plurals, and add a minor degree of validity
to your position when you start flaming posters over *their* grammar and
spelling.

Park is a competent actress, and reasonably presentable, but the cute
redhead you were seeing on the screen, with Park's voice, is *not* a
direct reflection of reality; she is *not* a cute redhead in Size 5 Jeans.
In fact, she's most often a blonde..... *grin*

God it's annoying when someone posts a response to a topic that has
absolutely nothing to do with the topic. Where to you get off
correcting someones grammer. Most of the time, in posts such as these,
bad grammer or spelling is the result of bad typing or just taking
shortcuts. They are posting a usenet message, not writting a thesis.
And how is he trying to hook up with a "hot date"?
To the original question, Buffy is great. It's a television show based
on the movie that came out a few years ago. The movie was very silly,
which it was meant to be, but the television show has more darker
humor. The characters are supposed to be teenagers, but they can still
appeal to older audiences. I like it and I'm 29. Anyway, Sarah
Michelle Geller isn't exactly a teenager, since I believe she is 23.
And boy, IS SHE HOT! Check out Dawson's Creek. It's a new show about
teenagers that you might also might like, depending on how open minded
you are to sexual issues. One of the stars, Katie Holmes, is JUST SO
CUTE! I believe she is 18, although she plays a 15yo girl on the show.
