This thread is about either the first episode we ever saw that got us hooked, or the moments that got us watching Buffy non-stop.
The moment i couldn't stop watching Buffy happened sometime in 2000 or 2001. I was about six or seven and i was dowstairs watching ''The Gift'' with my brothers. My brothers had always watched the show, and i had seen a bit of it in the past. Enough to know Buffy went around killing people. I didn't realize she was killing vampires and demons, so i had thought she was a crazy person, so did my parents, and they didnt want me having nightmares. But my parents reluctantly let me watch ''the Gift'' because my brothers were all watching it, and were very hyped up about it. I didn't realize that it could potentially be the series finale. But as i was watching it i slowly started to understand what was happening and when the episode was finished i just sat there and i knew Buffy had become my hero. Meanwhile my brothers are jumping off the couch and landing on their faces imitating Buffy sacrificing herself. But i never forgot that moment, and i knew Buffy was my new favourite show. Goodbye Barnie, Hello Buffy!
From that night on every week I would watch it at 4:00 on the ''Space Network'' (the canadian channel that had buffy) until i was caught up on every episode and i could watch the new episodes on the UPN and WB. Even when the series ended i still remembered the night i watched the Gift. My life would be so much different if i hadn't seen Buffy that night. It literally was my life and obsession, and is once more now that season eight is here.
I am sure Buffy has affected all of our lives in some way. I know it has on mine. But i will never forget that moment after seeing ''The Gift'' that got me hooked. So this thread is for you to share you experiences or moments that got you hooked on Buffy. Maybe there was an episode you happened to see? But if you think back, I'm sure all of us have some great moments that got us watching Buffy, and visiting Sunnydale every week....
