Date Movie (2006)
- The scene where Alyson Hannigan's character is able to hear other people's thoughts and her handmotions are extremely similar to the episode of Buffy where Buffy becomes telepathic and does similar handmotions (hands over face/head). Alyson was also a star of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" the TV series.
 
There were a couple of Buffy references on Farscape. In particular, I remember Crichton's reaction to finding out (yet again) that Scorpius wasn't dead after all:

"Silver bullet? Kryptonite? Buffy? What does it take to keep you in the ground?"
 
This one isn't really a refrence to Buffy I dont think, but there was a Blond women named Buffy in Brothers & Sisters on sunday.

But I think if you name a character Buffy, you have to know thats gonna be a reference!
 
Being Human on BBC3 on Sunday had a referance to Buffy directly. The Ghost in the show talked about loving watching Buffy but stopped watching the show now she was a part of that reality (she is now a ghost living with a werewolf and a vampire).

Ooh, I have one ! I was watching Daria the other day, episode 3.10 'Speedtrapped' and Quinn, Daria's oh-so-vain little sister, said : "We'll be through the criminal justice system and home in time for Buffy." ! Although that clearly doesn't put the show in a very bright light ! (I would have jumped all over the place if Jane had been shown watching the show. Well, I still have season 5 to go through - you never know!)

While searching the exact quote on Google, I found this Wikipedia page about Buffy references in pop culture.

Wow, I didn't notice this one:

In the video game Fable II, one of the optional quests the Hero can undertake consists of helping a farmer in Brightwood Farm called Giles take revenge upon a bandit called Ripper, or helping Ripper expand his operations by killing Giles. This may be a reference to Rupert 'Ripper' Giles (Farmer Giles' son is called Rupert).

and I killed Giles!! 🙁
 
On last night's episode of Chuck, Adam Baldwin's character says "Bored now!"

It was the last line of dialog in the episode.
 
Yeah, I was just going to mention that. I wasn't absolutely positive it was a Buffy reference, but the fact that it's Adam Baldwin saying it makes me think it almost has to have been intentional.
 
Neighbours tonight, just watched it (i live in australia, so i guess people who don't haven't seen it yet)
But Kate and Donna are talking about guys, how there's dangerous and sexy then boring (or something along those lines) because Donna is thinking about Andrew and Ringo
Anyway, they start giving examples and Kate says 'Buffy Angel and Riley'
Angel being dangerous and bad and sexy, and Riley being kinda boring.

(I squealed when i heard the reference)

Just looked it up, it's episode 5848

that is so cool - and just when I'd stopped watching neighbours too :(
I saw this a few weeks ago, but only just thought to mention it. In Being Human, when Annie and Nina were trying to find out if Nina was actually a werewolf, it was kind of awkward, so Annie came out with 'There was a werewolf called Nina in Buffy' and although I was screaming at the TV 'No, It was in Angel!' I still found it awesome that they referenced Nina, at all, considering that was exactly what I was thinking when she'd been bitten.

LMAO I KNOW! HA i mind first time seeing Nina, i was like 'What is it with werewolfs being called Nina?! HA.
 
I've just watched Alias season 5 episode 6. Marshall said "We're 5 by 5". I don't know if "5 by 5" is originally said by Faith, but I'm still excited. 🙂

It's not originally said by Faith, but she did make the phrase popular. It originated from radio speak, where clarity and volume were rated on a scale of 1 to 5. So 5x5 would mean 'loud and clear'.
Another one
In The secret life of the american teenager, episode 4 season 1, there's this minister guys being interviewed and he says "She's a powerful girl, Grace Bowman, our very own buffy the vampire slayer"
About Grace who prayed and then defended herself with a broken beer bottle against some guys

i remember this!
The Adventures of Old Christine - Old Christine wants to get pregnant, while explaining to her ex husband the process of donating sperm, she basically is saying Buffy (Sarah) is ‘hot’ and by watching “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” will help him perform in the clinic.
 
The latest ep of Heroes I watched - "Strange Attractors" - featured a scene where the sorority girls go to kidnap Claire and her room-mate...Claire thinks it's something nasty happening and gets all beaty-up on them and one of the other girls says something like "There's no need to get all Buffy on us"
