Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season 1
Overview
Buffy the Vampire Slayer is a 1997 supernatural drama television series created by Joss Whedon for The WB. The first season follows Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar), a teenage girl who is the "Slayer" — a chosen one who is destined to fight vampires, demons, and other forces of darkness. She moves to Sunnydale, California, which is built on a "Hellmouth," a portal to other dimensions. She is helped by her "Scooby Gang" — her friends Willow (Alyson Hannigan) and Xander (Nicholas Brendon), and her Watcher, Giles (Anthony Head). The first season is a fun, witty, and entertaining monster-of-the-week show. It was a critical and commercial success, launching a franchise. The show is a must-see for fans of urban fantasy and for anyone who loves a good, strong, female protagonist.
