It\u2019s a cult show that could\u2019ve hit the zeitgeist if it had just happened a few years later. From angsty vampire-human romances to a butt-kicking lead in a nice dress, the first season of \u201cBuffy the Vampire Slayer\u201d delivers. We break down our favorite episodes, marvel at the show\u2019s great casting, and appreciate the unlikely nature of a smart, character-driven teen series emerging from the wasteland that was The WB network in the late \u201990s.
