Mr. Pointy Slayer of the Vampire
Oooohhhh it is October a month filled with ghouls and goblins! To kick off the month Johnny and Brian are taking a trip to the Hellmouth, no not Cleveland, but the bright and sunny and seemingly never-ending town of Sunnydale. That’s right, the guys are talking Buffy the Vampire Slayers and all the Scooby Gang goodness that goes along with this geek staples of the early 2000’s. They also share their thoughts on the latest Netflix smash hit Marvel’s Luke Cage!
Buffy The Vampire Slayers (1997)
Synopsis
Buffy the Vampire Slayer is an American television series created by Joss Whedon under his production tag, Mutant Enemy Productions with later co-executive producers being Jane Espenson, David Fury, David Greenwalt, Doug Petrie, Marti Noxon, and David Solomon. The series premiered on March 10, 1997, on The WB and concluded on May 20, 2003, on UPN. The series narrative follows Buffy Summers (played by Sarah Michelle Gellar), the latest in a line of young women known as “Vampire Slayers”, or simply “Slayers”. In the story, Slayers are “called” (chosen by fate) to battle against vampires, demons, and other forces of darkness. Like previous Slayers, Buffy is aided by a Watcher, who guides, teaches, and trains her. Unlike her predecessors, Buffy surrounds herself with a circle of loyal friends who become known as the “Scooby Gang”.

History
Buffy the Vampire Slayer was a mid-season replacement series and featured only 12 episodes in its first season: 22 were to follow in each of the remaining six seasons. The first season begins several months after the events of the movie, with Buffy Summers arriving in Sunnydale with her mother, Joyce. After moving with the hopes of leaving her born slayer duties behind, Buffy inevitably comes into contact with her Watcher, the librarian Rupert Giles who helps convince her to slay again. She also meets social outcasts Xander Harris and Willow Rosenberg, her two best friends for the remainder of the series, and snobby cheerleader Cordelia Chase. They soon realize that Sunnydale High is located on a Hellmouth, a portal to demon dimensions, which attracts supernatural phenomena to the area.The first season included mostly standalone episodes, exploring the problems faced by the student population as a result of the centrality of the Hellmouth that it has. Such issues explored include: ignored students turning invisible; witches; demon teachers; and the never-ending supply of vampires.
