It hardly seems real since that it's been 20 years since we opened Buffy-Boards. I'm wondering...do you remember what your first post was?
Can i get sorted too? plz?
The Real World: Sunnydale
Okay. So, you have the main cast (Buffy, Xander, Willow, Dawn, and Giles) and Angel's main cast (Angel, Cordy, Fred, Gunn, and Wesley) stuck in a house for three months. There is nothing supernatural at all. What do you think would happen?
It hasn’t been for a lack of trying! That armchair is getting quite dank after you’ve been sitting in it for so many years! 😉😂I do...I can't remember what I had for dinner yesterday these days but I still remember my first BB post. It was while the show was still airing and I was confused how there could be two active Slayers ( yea, I know...what a rube!). I couldn't find a direct answer from googling the question but I did find the Buffy-Bytes website (aka Buffy Boards) where I posted the question and had it answered by kindly members who took pity on me. I then sat in the comfy armchair in the corner, dozed off, and they still haven't found a way to get rid of me 🤣
Xander gets a ton of flack, and I won’t act like some of it isn’t deserved, but I would argue that his character is built in a way that the reasons for his hated-ness are supposed to be negative character traits.
The best example I can think of is his infamous handling of his relationship with Anya being a result of living in a broken home with parents who clearly stopped loving each other years ago. Xander does a lot of stupid stuff to ensure that the relationship works, and as a result ends up making it fail, but his insecurities and fears of giving Anya a bad life justify his actions. I don’t agree with them, but I also don’t have the same life Xander does, so I can at least understand why he does what he does.
