If you were an angsty teen in the late ‘90s, then you probably loved Buffy the Vampire Slayer. How could you not? Sarah Michelle Gellar was the envy of every girl back in the day. And she was the poster child for amazing ‘90s hair. Also, Joss Whedon made his mark on the industry with the series. He cultivated a fanbase that rivals Whovians or Juggalos. But Buffy is not one of those shows that a millennial could watch now and think, “Yes. This is a series that gave rise to an entire generation.” Looking back on Buffy now, there’s plenty wrong with it. So here are all the Buffy the Vampire Slayer worst episodes, characters and other series fails.
The acting is pretty terrible
It’s kind of safe to say that nearly every show from the ‘90s featured less than stellar acting performances. And aside from a few exceptions, the cast of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” pretty much only had some minor roles under their belts prior to the series. So there were definitely episodes that felt more like we were watching an actual high school production than a real TV show.
