TheAnnointedOne - my fav character is Buffy. I know that might sound so lame, but I see so much of myself in her and she is super empowering and inspirational!
:welcome: to the boards Shawnie. Hopefully you'll like it here. At least you'll have people to discuss with.
Why would that sound lame?
I LOVE Buffy. Yes, my favorite character is Spike, but Buffy is right after him, because of the reasons you said. She's such a deep character and she's the one who makes the show, not only because she's the lead. I know what you mean by lame. Not that I feel it's lame, but sometimes I too feel that people misjudge Buffy and often hate her. I find myself angry at her a lot, but overall, I love her to death.
