Nearly three decades ago, Joss Whedon transformed the mediocre film he wrote — which left him dissatisfied — into a groundbreaking television series that would set a new standard. This influential show inspired numerous sci-fi and fantasy projects to come and elevated the entire genre. Now, Buffy the Vampire Slayer is reportedly in line for a legacy sequel, with Variety reporting that Sarah Michelle Gellar is in final talks to reprise her role as Buffy Summers in a Hulu revival.
With this development in mind, we’re revisiting the series to highlight the 15 best episodes of this unexpectedly moving, thrilling, witty, and socially conscious show. Premiering on The WB on March 10, 1997, Buffy the Vampire Slayer proved that triumphant television could be crafted from stories of a teenage girl battling vampires, demons, and other night-time terrors.
The show’s ensemble helped redefine the idea of a ragtag team, portraying teen and later college-age angst and anxiety against a backdrop of constant apocalyptic threats.
To mark the potential return of this unparalleled series, we’re celebrating the finest episodes from the original run. These selections represent the best of Buffy and the “Scooby Gang” as they masterfully blend absurd comedy, stark drama, and everything in between. Note: We’ve taken slight liberty here by counting two-part episodes as single entries. So, here are the top picks from the “beep me, bite me” world of Buffy!
