spacebugQuestion to all these people that have told me to watch Buffy The Vampire Slayer, the TV series, because no, really, it's really good ...
I'm through 3.5 episodes, via hulu. I'm having a lot of difficulty believing this was the breakthrough series from the same guy responsible for Firefly, 'cause so far it's nigh intolerable- right down there with the Jules Verne Chronicles. Whedon's laurels are the only thing keeping me afloat right now. Well, that and the need for fluffy nonsense after a really busy weekend.
When, pray tell, does it start to not suck? Can I skip right to another season without missing anything?

But really, it's the first season. Like every show, it takes them awhile to find the groove. But it is worth watching because Whedon likes to do a lot of callbacks to events from prior episodes and season. For example, Xander gets made fun of for the She-Mantis thing like years later.
