It's been twenty years since the last episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1997-2003) aired on television. It was one of the first supernatural drama series on TV and spawned generations more like it, with the likes of Charmed and franchise spinoff Angel following shortly after. However, Buffy still reigns. For fans who grew up with the show, it's cathartic in its allegories and provides a sense of solidarity and camaraderie. Long-time viewers feel like they're a part of the Scooby Gang; they learn and grow with Buffy, Willow, and Xander, and discover just how much one person can fight through and still come out in one piece. Buffy is still an inspiration to underdogs everywhere.
