Buffy the Vampire Slayer

''Huh. She seems like a good leader. Her hair is shiny. Does she make you stab things?'' - Andrew

Buffy the Vampire Slayer, abbreviated BtVS, is the first show created by Joss Whedon (see also Angel (show) and Firefly). The basic premise is that vampires, demons, witches etc, the occult, basically, are real, and that there is one girl in all the world chosen to fight these forces of darkness, the Slayer. She is meant to do this in the utmost secrecy, aided only by her Watcher, an older man or woman skilled in the lore of the occult. Theoretically. In BtVS, the newly-called Slayer is Buffy Summers, an ex-cheerleader. Her Watcher for the most part of the series is Rupert Giles, a middle-aged Englishman who poses as the librarian at her high school. Due to a strange set of events, Buffy's friends Willow Rosenberg and Xander Harris get to know of her, er, extracurricular activities, and join with her in combating such things as apocalypses (yes, plural), nasty uber-vampires, demons of all shapes and sizes, etc etc. Gradually other teens join them, such as Willow's first boyfriend Oz, who turns out to be a werewolf. The show ran for seven seasons, and is extremely popular and often quoted.
