Happy
AngryInto every generation a slayer is born: one girl in all the world, a chosen one. She alone will wield the strength and skill to fight the vampires, demons, and the forces of darkness; to stop the spread of their evil and the swell of their number. She is the Slayer.
Why watch it
Imagine the clang of a wooden stake against a basement floor, the neon glow of a high-school hallway flickering as a teenage girl cracks a joke while a vampire hisses behind her. Joss Whedon’s blend of comedy, drama and sci-fi lets you juggle snappy one-liners with epic fight scenes, and Sarah Michelle Gellar, Nicholas Brendon and Alyson Hannigan keep the chaos feeling oddly home-y. If you’re craving a series that makes you laugh while your pulse races, you’ll walk away feeling both pumped and oddly reassured.
