#the vanpire slayer

[hepaidattention]

I made it a challenge to myself to watch all the teen dramas, and I think I have finally watched them all (at least the classics). Since I have finished all the teen soaps, I think I shall rate them with my bias opinions (this is 2010s and later only)....

#1: Teen Wolf. I debated adding the supernatural ones to this list, but alas I had to. This show is #1 because it embodied everything teen drama with actually good acting, an iconic villain (Void!Stiles) and a ship I would die for (Stydia). this show had everything the teen dramas were hoping for, there is an actually lovable main character, an even more loved best friend, and an epic story of romance and saving the world every day while still in highscool. what more could you ask for?

#2: since supernatural teen soaps are in this, Buffy the Vampire Slayer will always have my heart. This show went beyond teen angst and became a much deeper, emotional show as it matured with the audience, but it will forever be a classic and would make #1 if it weren't for the whole deeply moving and painful season where Buffy grappled with wanting to be dead and trying not to hate her friends from tearing her away from heaven.

#3: Gossip Girl. This show had everything a teen drama could ask for. Rich people, more rich people who just acted like they were poor but they lived in a giant apartment in Brooklyn, love triangles, back and forth will they or won't they, and the best mystery of the 2000s: who is GG??? the best part about this show was I loved to hate every character on this show, and it made me even more invested every episode.

#4: The OC. This might come to a shocker to most, but this show (though was a little too serious sometimes) was the only teen drama I watched where they had almost as much humor as they did angst. Summer and Seth were the soul of this show, truthfully, and it was the only teen angst show that had me loving every character by the end. It embodied the essence of highschool teen drama shenanigans like any TV show would attempt and misrepresent and I forever will love it for it.

#5: The Vampire Diaries. This show gets #5 for iconic stats only, if I'm honest. However there's something about tvd that makes me want to rewatch just about every new month. With the most iconic couple, Damon and Elena as a plus, theres still the epically annoying love triangles, it's poor acting, and the never ending amount of necks these vampies snapped. this show will always baffle me for its pull on ppl (me included) with some of the most annoying main characters to exist leading most the show. The entire TVD franchise is attached to this, because I refuse to add any of the other spins offs in this list.

#6: One Tree Hill. This show, if being rated for this soap opera plots alone, would've been #1 on this list. One Tree Hill was the embodiment of pointless fighting, ridiculous plots, and epic love triangles. Nothing beats how this show idolized basketball, and how it demonized a dad that never had any real reason to be such a horrible dad. like seriously, why did he hate Lucas sm??? it was never really ever explained. For me personally, this show made #6 merely because I'm a girl who loves a good ship, and there was never a ship I was ever truly invested in for this show. Naley was lovely, but I never could get too invested in any of these characters. They were always very 2 dimensional and had very little growth (aside from Nathan and Brooke, obviously).

#7: Veronica Mars. This show honestly belongs up there with BTVS with its witty dialougue, interesting and dramatic myteries, love to hate characters, and the epic love story that is LoVe. however it gets knocked down to 7th place due to its lack of an ending and then the creator's absolutely ruining the entire show by giving us one more season with the worst ending to exist (and I've seen HIMYMs ending).

#8: Dawson's Creek. This show is a mix of hate and love for me, though it does hold a special place in my heart. It belongs higher up the list for its wordy dialogue, perpetual declarations of love and the meaning of life, and its never ending love triangle. I loved Pacey, Joey, Jen, and Jack very dearly in this show. They all were precious characters who all grew up tremendously (especially Jen and Pacey). and of course, Pacey and Joey's love story might just be one of the best ones in all of teen dramas. however, it gets demoted down to the lonely number 8 because I simply just did not like Dawson. Sadly, it being called Dawson's Creek, he was quite a regular in the show, too. even plots usually circulated around him most episodes. He was self righteous, selfish, narcissistic, a manipulator, and truly he never changed until the final episodes. I always thought I hated Elena in tvd, but at least with Elena she meant good. Dawson wanted nothing but his way, and most of his actions (like his hate for Pacey) were purely because he was a whiny baby that hated that he didn't get what he wanted. I mean, Pacey and Joey were literally fighting about telling him - on their way to tell him in that very moment. Joey was the one who didn't want to tell Dawson the most - and yet Dawson spent the rest of the show (until the final episodes) hating his best friend for simply loving someone Dawson decided he had dibs on. Joey and Pacey were the only thing that kept me watching, since Jack and Jens plots were few and far between the longer the show went on.

#9: This placement really is just for all the other teen dramas I left out, especially for the shows that were an odd mix of drama and comedy, or never really had any opportunity to fall into any of the classic teen drama trends. some honorable mentions would be Freaks and Geeks, Gilmore Girls, Degrassi (I just refuse to watch Degrassi, tbh), Charmed, and 90210.

#10: and last and most certianly least, Pretty Little Liars. I hated this show, and truthfully never finished the last seasons. I just skipped and watched the finale because I became so irritated with every aspect of this entire series. However, it's start was good, and I will always remember the thrill of watching the first season and trying to peice together just who A really was.

Does anyone else ship Ben and Pike from Buffy the Vanpire Slayer 1992 or am I just weird?

My feedback: one note, the vanpire slayer

This bus company in my area has taken to giving its vehicles names. This one could have used a bit more constructive criticism.

I hope things have changed but back in the day we would go to the dollar store and they’d just be selling expired shit sometimes. I vaguely remember some orange juice thing being too nasty one time and I think it made me sick. It probably had buffy (tha vanpire slayer) on it or something.

Question, (and spoilers for Buffy the Vampire season 1 and 2) Buffy dies and another Slayer is called. Does that mean there will always be two Slayers, if she dies again, will another get called? Or has she had her death now? When she dies that’ll leave Faith the only Slayer. (Obviously this discounts the last season.)

Thanks to Buffy and Angel, I’m all about the 90s vamps.

But I do also have a new very deep fondness for the TV What We Do in the Shadows vampires.

I think this relevant content for all vampire fandoms...

True to be told, my fav is the messy 80s vampire 😂 I regret nothing

Everyone knows who Luke Perry is. Doesn’t matter how old you are and what generation you grew up in, you knew him.

Most of you know him as Archie’s father, Fred Andrews in Rivedale.

My generation knew him as Mr. Hearthrob aka Dylan McKay in Beverly Hills 90210.

And as Oliver Pike in Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

We also knew him as the “Squeeze felt around the world.” Does anyone remember the 1992 MTV VMA?

I do.

It’s what I’ll always remember Luke Perry for because it wasn’t a role or a charcter. That impulse to get 2 handful of Howard Stern’s saggy nasty ass, that’s all Luke Perry, baby.

I’ve been fortunate to have met and known him and he really is one of the most kindest and sympathetic person in this world. It’s heartbreaking that we lost another amazing soul.

Objectively bad vampire series

🖤 Buffy the vampire slayer

🖤 Vanpire Knight

🖤 Rosario vampire

🖤 Twilight

🖤 Vampire kisses

🖤 The house of night series

🖤 Vampire academy

🖤 Chronicles of vladimir tod (I only read like one book but I’m trusting my mutual who tagged it on my post) so possibly isnt bad maybe it’s in bad vampire series purgatory, neither good nor really bad

I’m sure I’m forgetting some I’m just listing the ones I have encountered (all of these I watched or read as a kid or young teen)

And here for our actually good vampire series honorary mentions we have: My babysitters a vampire, that series was so fucking good disney as usual did us and the series so dirty by canceling it I’m mad

[missbrunettebarbie]

Buffy Summers

OTP for them: Angel, of course

BROTP for them: her mom, Giles, Kendra, WillowLily from 3×01

Other ships: Drusilla, Kendra, Cordelia, Willow, Spike

What kind of fic I’d write about them: canon missing scene, maybe? Or character study

A favorite canon moment: When she killed Angel, duh

Color that reminds me of them: pink and white for some reason

Song that reminds me of them: ....I am alaways bad with this one. No clue

A headcanon about them: She wanted to be a singer at some point

A random AU I think up on the spot for them: vanpire!Buffy AU with Kendra as the Slayer. Romance, tension, and secret identity maybe?

Anything else: I luff how centered the show is on her and how amazing her storylines are

[superfandomcorp]

Sarah Michelle Gellar and David Boreanaz...

[fagsaporta]
