media day: Buffy the Vampire Slayer

started watching "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" several months ago via Netflix, but I got terribly interrupted by school work, the "Heroes" season 2 DVD release, catching up on ever season of "The Office" that's on DVD, traveling to see my family, praying that my car didn't die, attempting to keep in touch with faraway friends, and spending my little remaining free time catching up on sleep.

Needing a break and wanting some wind down time before bed last night, I popped in the first disc of the second season of "Buffy." I completed the first season, then watched this disc before getting wrapped up in other stuff, so I decided to get it again so as not to miss any exciting moment of the campy, thrilling drama.

But "Buffy" has something "Power Rangers" didn't (other than an audience who didn't need an adult to reach the buttons on the TV): Good acting. Not kidding. The acting in "Buffy" is really good. Cast aside your doubts about the likelihood of the plotlines and the relationships between the students and the crazy school librarian, the nerds and the popular girl, the vampire and the vampire slayer. The acting totally makes it believable. There could not be more tension in the Buffy-Xander-Willow love triangle if it were real. Even though the show is ridiculous, the acting has somehow dragged me, and I'm loving this show.
