a buffy the vampire slayer anniversary celebration

my all-time favorite show, buffy the vampire slayer, aired 18 years ago today. i'm not sure if that makes me old since i watched the show when it aired on the WB.

some great articles i read about my lady hero today:

• Here’s Why You Should Watch The ‘Buffy The Vampire Slayer’ Pilot Tonight, Even If You’ve Already Seen It A Million Times
• Proof That Joss Whedon Was Ahead of the Pop-Culture Feminism Curve
• At 18, Buffy the Vampire Slayer Is Still Revolutionary

buffy parte ii

buffy is back...sorta.

the cw picked up ringer.

more...

happy birthday!

buffy anne summers turns 30 today...

and season 8 comes to a close with a GREAT ending.

 

obviously the best vampire series ever

i'm glad this is a twilight parody.

slightly obsessed

classic buffy

seriously!

angel is twilight

as in the buffy season 8 big bad.

...how are they going to explain this and tie into the IDW angel series?

i thought these new books were all about canon. regardless, i want the "buffy manifesto" in my hands.

there's a pretty decent article over at CBR about the big bad reveal.

and the big bad for buffy season 8 is...

president obama. REALLY? love the tease though. i can't wait to find out who twilight really is. this cbr interview with scott allie says there's many hints. i really thought it was riley but, it doesn't seem that way anymore.

buffy: the animated series? WHEN?

there is lots of talk about an animated buffy serieson perez, tvovermind (the link is gone), and io9.

please make sure it looks like the above and the vampires don't get green when they change forms. ok, thanks.

random notes for today.

i have been behind in watching the news. i have alot to do at the moment with school.

the red circle semi-viral marketing campaign is live with newspaper headlines being posted on the dc source blog featuring fictional articles about each of the new heroes. its a nice idea that is being used to introduce new characters yet, it offers the familiarity of dc comics through the use of the daily planet as the header.

on a different note, anthony stewart head like myself will not be watching the new buffy remake by the kuzuis. i hope there are more people on that bandwagon.

lastly, this news is almost a month old. skins is one of my all time favorite shows ever and now, a movie and a novel are in the works. i hope they bring back some of the original cast. if you haven't seen skins, watch it. it outdoes any teen show that america has to offer. i will even give you the amazon link for the first season. the second season is better than the first so just watch both...now.

i have two weeks of reading to catch up on for sales force management, e-mails to read for class, and a book to order for another class. the night has clearly just begun.

this is just WRONG.

i have been super busy with work this past long weekend. i have many blog topics i plan on writing about tomorrow night. i am currently semi hyped up on coffee after a long day so i browsed my rss feeds.

this article infuriated me about a buffy remake. really kuzui? you cannot just RUIN the buffy-verse. find something else to write about? get a new profession? consult with joss whedon? try not to ruin buffy? thanks for listening to me.

the latest results of a fan poll by kristin furthers the lack of fan support:

85.3% No, I am enraged at the shameless corporate exploitation of Joss Whedon's art.

poor buffy being ruined for another generation. read the comic books. it is a great continuation of buffy after the hellmouth closed. i eagerly await the new issue each month.
