Jag hänger i alt.tv.twin-peaks en del, men eftersom det mesta som rör Twin Peaks hunnit diskuteras ett antal gånger under de senaste tio åren, så har det mest blivit snack om annat på sistone, bl.a. Buffy.
Så när jag sattes i sitsen att försöka förklara VAD som gör Buffy så bra bidde det så här...

A show which takes what seems to be a rather silly premise in writing
("teenage girl with superpowers kill vampires") and uses it as a
starting point for a show filled with laugh-out-loud humor, lovable
and increasingly complex characters, great acting from just about
every regular and tons of charm.
Also, the dramatic side of the show becomes quite a bit stronger after
approximately 1½ season by creating stories that last over several
episodes or even seasons, turning clichés on their head, and not using
the usual predictable dramatic structures for these kinds of stories.
That was as short as I could make it.

Vet inte om ni håller med, men det var min förklaring till the Buffy naysayers.
Dessutom har jag skrivit ut och tejpat upp DVD Angle-recensionen (som jag länkade till för ett tag sedan) bredvid min DVD-hylla, med texten "LÄS INNAN NI RETAR KALLE FÖR BUFFY-SAMLINGEN!"
