This is the sort of video I’ve wanted to make about Buffy for years. It’s meant a lot to me for most of my life, and your analysis of every season is proof that there are an infinite number of lessons to be learned from the show, a lot of which I notice more and more as I get older.
Really great observations anyway! I never thought about the single mother allegory in Season 5 but it makes so much sense. I love Buffy as a character and there are so many ways to read her journey throughout the seven seasons. Thanks for uploading this!
Buffy S1: Buffy/Angel
Buffy S2: Angelus/Oz
Buffy S3: Cordelia/Faith
Buffy S4: Xander/Giles
Buffy S5: Joyce/Dawn
Buffy S6: Willow/Tara
Buffy S7: Spike/Anya
Angel S1: Angel/Doyle
Angel S2: Wesley/Lorne
Angel S3: Gunn/Fred
Angel S4: Cordy/Connor
Angel S5: Spike/Harmony
Holy crap. That was an amazing analysis of the shows themes. Tbh, I never really saw season 5 as an allegory for being a single mother, but it’s so true. You did an amazing job here my friend.
Thanks, much appreciated! The more I looked at it, the more I could break it down (even by episodes) but that's a bit of a rabbit hole.
if teens knew what adulthood is like, they would run away screaming.
I think you did wonderful job here! You pointed out things about the show that I hadn't really considered before. It made a lot of sense to me. I watched Buffy when it initially aired on wb and since then I have re-watched the series several times. I truly love it overall and won't forget how it impacted me personally. Keep up the good work! 😊
Great, accessible analysis. Buffy's theme and depth were a major reason why I got into the show and found it to have longer-lasting impact than most other entertainment since. Look forward to your other videos!
Good Job!! BTVS was fun entertainment for me, so I never noticed the deeper aspects you mentioned; IMO, you nailed it!🖖
you should watch Passion of the nerd's videos then - you're not done discovering alllll the layers of the show
Excellent analysis, and very clearly explained. Bravo!
I really liked what you said about leadership. I have met so many people who think they can make people "obey" in interpersonal relationships with the use of an iron glove, money, or an ultimatum. Now I understand why they harbor disdain for ppl who lead through actions and the inspiration that follows. Good stuff!👏👏👏
Season 1: accepting responsibility
Season 2: high school is hell
Season 3: the affect you leave on others
Season 4: orgasms
Season 5: learning to be an adult
Season 6: facing real life
Season 7: finally being an adult
That kissing montage was so cute! Ha... the music! 😆
life isn't those things. life is life.
Hope to see you do this for Angel
Absolutely! I plan on doing a few breakdowns for Angel
what do the monks represent?
xander does become more successful.
