What the audience says
Buffy the Vampire Slayer sits near the top of English series on audience ratings. It carries an 8.1/10 on TMDB across 2,071 ratings — comfortably clear of the pack.
Is it worth starting?
This is 7 seasons deep — English comedy with drama threaded through, not one for younger kids. Starting now means a backlog — worth knowing before you press play.
- Why
- It rates 8.1/10 on 2,071 ratings so far — a strong early showing.
- Skip if
- you don't want to start something several seasons deep
- Best for
- A long run rather than a single sitting
Story
Into 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.
