Buffy the Vampire Slayer

I am addicted to Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
It's a terrific show.
With strong women, good values, and delicious looking men.
What more can a girl ask for?
Really not much.
I have never seen a series from beginning to end.
Yes, I did skip half of season four.
I did.
Shameful.
It's not my fault though.
Season four sucked.
I mean, annoying boyfriends, a stupid Big Bad (a Frankenstein type monster? Really?!?!?), and no Angel.
So I skipped the stupid episodes.
I'll watch them eventually.
I've watched mostly all of Buffy.
But now, I'm in season seven.
The last season.
No more Buffy.
What will I do?
When I was having a difficult time living, I escaped to the Buffyverse.
With vampires, demons, goddesses.
A universe where I would imagine myself as Buffy.
Strong, powerful, chosen.
Where I would kick the fuck out of my problems.
Defeating them while making witty comments.
And wearing stylish yet affordable boots.
With awesome skirts.
And no bra.
My problems went to the back of my mind.
It was so helpful not thinking about them.
Buffy will be over soon.
I guess I can find another show.
I just know one thing: nothing can replace Buffy.
Nothing.
