Love of Vampires

Vampire books, movies and lore…

Holy freakin CRAP! Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 6 was the best Buffy season yet! The writers got so creative with this season.  They really played with different genres of film and filming styles.

And besides, who can resist a spectacular vampire musical??!

***warning!  may contain spoilers if you haven’t seen it yet!***

Yes, this season of  Buffy was a great season in the history of TV in my opinion.  I found myself getting caught up in it like I do the amazing shows that are on today, which I have been heard referred to as the Golden Age of television.  Great stories and great writing.  But this has vampires.  And so is better.

The season started with a slight dilemma, Buffy died at the end of the last season.  And Spike is sad.  So Anna is sad.  Willow says, hey no prob!  And uses her magical wily ways to bring Buffy back.  Thus the slaying and fun continue!

This season really develops Willow as a magic force to be reckoned with – and we also get to see the demise of her beautiful girl Tara.  Seeing the reconciliation of Willow and Tara followed by Tara’s death and Willow’s transformation in to scaaaaaary Willow was truly heart wrenching – the writers just tugged and tugged at the heart strings on that one.

I did find it funny, yet highly annoying, that Buffy is kept running around and stumped by a few geeks from her high school.  I mean, come on!  She has defeated the master, countless creepy demons and a huge former-mayor-turned-GIANT-snake.  And now she’s kept on her toes by pre pubescent Lex Luthors??!  I guess it kept the humor going.  The annoying humor.  Ok, I kinda like Andrew.

And then there was my favorite part – Buffy and Spike.   FINALLY.  And during the collapse of a building.  Hot.  Totally meant to happen.  I just adore Spike.  Period.  Buffy is crazy.  I love Spike.  Ok, there… I’ve said it.

Yup, this season rocked my Buffy world.  Which has been pretty big lately, since, well… it’s all I’ve been watching lately!  Help!  Hope they keep it up for the last season!
