Buffy Season 2
Jun. 5th, 2008 09:09 amI finished Buffy season two the other day. I’ve been holding off on writing anything though because I was trying to figure out what it is that’s sort of bugging me about the show. And not in a bad way. More just because I totally expected by this point to be totally sucked in to the show and OMG-obesessed with everything. And I’m not. I’m still kind of meh about everything. I have come to two possible conclusions – 1) Since I know most general things that have happened in the show, I’m not worried about anything. Like, Angel just got sucked into a vortex to hell. But I don’t really care cos I know he’ll be back. Hell, he gets his own show in a couple seasons. And 2) I don’t care about Buffy. I’m not 100% sure why yet, but I don’t care about her. I’m more interested in everyone else on the show. Giles and Jenny. Xander and Cordelia. Willow and Oz. Spike and Drusilla. Even just Angel by himself. Buffy just doesn’t interest me. Maybe it’s because I’m so far removed from high school and she still seems very immature in some ways. Which, she’s 17 you can’t expect her to act like she’s 30. But there’s still something there that bugs me. Maybe it’s because I’ve never been a big fan of Sarah’s. She’s just never grabbed my attention as an actress. I don’t know. But it’s weird. I think that if I were watching as/when the show was originally airing, I probably would have stopped by now. But y’all say season 3 is awesome, so I’m still holding out hope.
Ok, so, now specifically Becoming. It was interesting enough. I was slightly disappointed that we didn’t get to see Spike’s origin story. Though, I suppose that’s because Angel wasn’t directly involved. Do we ever learn more about that? Since we know how Angel and Dru got to be vamps. Seems only fair we learn more about Spike. When that demon guy introduced himself as Whistler, I immediately thought of Blade. Any correlation? Or just coincidence? And, like I alluded to above, I was more worried about Willow in this episode than Buffy. Though, I am slightly ticked off at her mom. I mean, hello. You saw a vampire get disintegrated right in front of you, you have another one sitting in your living room (and that scene with Spike and Joyce was completely made of win) and you still don’t believe your daughter. Instead, you kick her out of the house. Good job, mom.
So, season 3 should be coming tomorrow. We’ll see what happens with that…
