Buffy Fandom - Tumblr Posts

bahahaha today I Googled the following: • types of vampires

• who was willow dating when buffy dated the immortal?

• season 4 supernatural endverse • sanguation

Can you tell I'm working on a vampire fanfiction?

GOD THIS IS SO TRUE

season 3 ep 3 and faith just arrived and i cannot believe xander i swear he's my least favorite character ever

now angel is back ?!?!? omg how many times will she have to kill him :(

NO WILLOW AND XANDER KISSED OMG NO NO NO NO NO NO I HATE THIS WHY WHY WHY WHY

i really hate what just happened

they just cheated on oz and cordelia :(

xander is so misogynistic and egotistical i cannot stand him

“I love the idea that [Cordelia’s] immediately like ‘yeah I’d be there with [Angel] and I’d help him explore the like new world of being able to be in the sun and I’d want to help him be a normal guy and I’d want to be a part of everything.’ Like that is, again, such a clear… it’s so clear that she loves him. And however you want to define that love is, you know, up to you, but it’s just so clear that she just sees them as people who are always gonna be in each other’s lives and I love that.” - Angel on Top about 3.07 Offspring

buffy and spidey (well like certain iterations of spidey) have such similar energy. i’m too tired to elaborate, so just enjoy this one instance of them using the same phrase xoxo

so i’m probably late to the party because the movie was just released here, but i really loved “i saw the tv glow” and thought it would be fun to write down some of the buffy coded stuff in it. so there’s the obvious “female lead supernatural teen drama with a monster of the week format that deals with adolescence and destiny etc etc etc” stuff but here’s a list of some of the other similarities/references i spotted:

List of Buffy References/Similarities I Found in “I Saw the TV Glow”

♡the opening credits of “the pink opaque” uses the same font as buffy

♡doublelunch = a reference to “doublemeat palace”

♡amber benson cameo (duh!)

♡a character named “tara” (bonus points because maddie/tara is a lesbian)

♡”the pink opaque” is cancelled at season 5 and buffy was meant to end at the 5th season

♡buffy season 6 starts with buffy having to claw herself out of her own grave after being brought back from the afterlife and (presumably) season 6 of “the pink opaque” would begin with isabel & tara also doing the same - we know maddie/tara does this obviously, but it’s left ambitious whether owen/isabel will but it’s implied that season 6 can’t properly start til owen/isabel does…

♡having actual irl musicians perform at a club just reminded me of when irl bands performed at “the bronze” (and also like in “p3” in “charmed” and other shows of that era) …not so much a reference but i thought that was neat

♡so “snail mail” did a cover of “tonight, tonight” for the film and on the cover of the single she’s holding a buffy style scythe

♡the plot kinda reminded me of “normal again” where due to demonic stuff buffy starts to believe her sunnydale life was just fantasy/delusion and that she’s just a regular girl in a mental institution in la
