So I’ve been watching a lot of buffy this weekend and it got me thinking about how the show has progressed these past seven years. I’ve been trying to figure out what’s been missing for me for the show. The reason I don’t like it as much as I did. I’m just having a hard time putting my finger on what it is. I don’t know that I’d go as far as to say that the show sucks now, but I just don’t enjoy it as much. It just seems to be missing a certain subtleness that it had.<\/p>\n
I think back to the third and fourth seasons, where you saw a lot of what was going on, but the overall story wasn’t center stage the full season. You’d get a taste here, a taste there, slowly pulling you deeper in. The last two seasons of Buffy have just felt kind of abusive. I just saw episode 18 of this season and a new character has been introduced. The thing is, it sounds like he’s been responsible for a number of things that happened (like blowing up the Watchers). I just feel like if it was earlier on in the show’s life we would have seen this guy before. Or at least seen a hint of him.<\/p>\n
So that’s my early morning can’t quite sleep bit of Buffy musing that will probably only make sense to me later on when I’m half asleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
