Season 1 is the only time, it's similar to the Movie with Kristy Swanson and Luke Perry but which do you prefer?

the 1992 film
or
Season 1
 
True, any other 90210 cast member might have saved it?😛

Apart from him & Shannen Doherty (just no), I can't even recall their names. 😀 I think I saw Luke Perry in some B movies (there was one with an alien virus pandemic if I remember right) and it was all crap.

Hey, Shannen was maybe first crush!😛 Sadly I do recall their names....😳 And there's a link to the show and Buffy movie as Swank was actually in one of the later 90210 seasons😀

Fifth Element was the Perry movie you are thinking of, yeah it was out there😉
 
Season 1 definitely, but since we are talking about 90210 cast, I could picture Jenny Garth as either Buffy or Darla.

But I would miss Paul Reubens as Amilyn and his protracted death scene.
 
I'm going with season 1, because I love The Master, and Lothos in the movie (and the vampires in general) were just laughable and too campy. The Master was campy but I still feel his threat.

Haha. I like him in The Fifth Element! Cause he's only in like the first 5 minutes! lol.

I think you are thinking of Invasion (which was a horrible made for TV movie) and not The Fifth Element. Invasion was like an Invasion of the Body Snatchers type movie, where the aliens spread the virus from person to person whomever touched the aliens. Kim Cattrall from Sex in the City was in it.
 
Season 1.
SMG had a harder time making the role her own after Kirsty's film role, so she had the harder job. Plus the first season isn't so jarring in tone and doesn't have Donald Sutherland trying to screw up the mythology.
 
Even though season one is my least favourite (yes even more than seven, get off my back people!🙄), it still sets in motion some of the foundations which would make the show great in the future. Not only does the film over do it with the comedy, and cheesiness, but the comedy isn't even that original, and crucially its not very funny😉

Season 1 is awesome!
S1 has Xander. 🙂

I think S1 has more advantage for having 12 episodes to establish its characters and plot. I have not watched the movie, though I'd love to see it, I'd probably do that soon. From what I understand, some plot points were repeated in S1 like the story of Pike's friend being turned into a vampire and Pike having to stake him = Xander/Jesse.

This is true only in the very broadest interpretation. Both stories concern a character named Buffy Summers, who has a mother named Joyce, and who is a Vampire Slayer. Beyond those few general points, they are totally different.

But in answer to the actual question, obviously, I prefer the series to the movie.
 
Movie! I love it 😀

Wait - what?! 😵 There are people who actually like the movie?! 😱

Too many sadly😉

People with good taste typically like the movie.

There were probably people who liked Barry as James Bond, too.
 
Folks, I feel obliged to confess that even one so venerated, wise, and astute as the White Avenger can, on very rare occasions, be mistaken, and my sense of honor and honesty will not let me deceive you any longer.

As you can clearly see here:

Casino Royale (Climax!) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

it was Barry Nelson, not Gene Barry, who indeed played James Bond, and it was on the TV show "Climax!" not "Playhouse 90."

Please accept my most humble apology for having inadvertently misinformed you, and my sincere hope that in so doing, I have not tarnished your image of me as a wise, astute, and sophisticated member of this most Auguste society.

In other words, "Oops!"
