Re: Re:What was your first episode?

The first time I watched Buffy Ill never forget it. Of course I saw the  
movie before anything.
The reason I started watching was because of my 1st episode.
I had been in a strict religion which restricted television watching to  
certain kinds of programming for years while Buffy was starting in the late 90's  
and early 2000's, so I didn't start up with Buffy when it came out. I dropped  
out and got out of that religion eventually, and had heard many things about  
Buffy good and bad, the bad mostly was from Christians, I still considered  
myself at that time to be a conservative Christian (I think the year was 2002  
maybe, the 6th season was playing, the year before the last 7th season), and  
still wasn't interested in Buffy, however my Mom wanted to watch Cops on FX on 
 cable and the last 20 minutes of Buffy was still on, Cops was coming on 
right  after that so I said what the heck Ill watch the last 20 minutes.
 
It was a reruns, they playing all reruns on FX, it was the 3rd season last  
episode, the Mayors ascension, I remember being very very impressed.The reason  
was because of all the negative attention that Christians had brought up 
about  Buffy glorifying the Slayer as the end all and answer to everything, the 
program  had the Slayer with the whole school involved in fighting .That was 
impressive  to see angel and Xander and her scoobies and the people who helped 
her and the  whole school taking out after the vampires after all that negative 
business I  had heard to me was very impressive and I really liked the 
smartness of the  show, Buffy getting the Mayors attention by taunting him into 
chasing her into  the school and blowing the school up, that was very intelligent I 
thought.
 
Then I just started glancing and watching it now and then picking up on it  
and eventually got addicted.
