I post it here because some on the list might find it interesting] Truth can be found in some rather strange places, and one of the strangest I have encountered so far is the quite bizarre new TV series called BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER. Buffy is a 16-year-old high school student at the ironically named Sunnydale High School, in a town of the same name somewhere in California (almost the Enlightenment's promised land). She has, by some process we are not told much about, been chosen to be the "slayer," the one person in the world with the responsibility of personally fighting and destroying demonic powers, starting with but not limited to vampires. It seems that Sunnydale is located over a place known as the "Hell-mouth," a point where it is possible to come and go between the surface of the earth and the subterranean, demonic regions. The residents of the latter are constantly trying to get out and restore the dominion over the earth that they once enjoyed, and Buffy is constantly forcing them back. This is a worldview which takes evil with full seriousness. Buffy's world is a world in which order is a fragile thing constantly under attack from demonic forces of one kind or another, and constantly needing to be defended. Those who cannot recognize this fact or forget it are in serious danger. For instance, Mr. Fluty [sic], the high school principal during the first few episodes, is basically a nice man who is firmly committed to the Enlightenment. He believes in the natural goodness of man, and is quite convinced that dialog and communication can solve all problems, including the ones constantly introduced into his school by demonic forces. When these get disturbing enough, he summons therapists to counsel everyone involved, a familiar story. In the end, still not understanding what is going on, he is eaten by a gang of high school bullies who have come to be possessed by the spirits of a pack of hyenas (not really that much of a transition). The new principal, Mr. Snyder, is his opposite. He is aware of the reality of evil, though wrong in blamimg it on Buffy and her friends, the only ones trying to overcome evil. He is also wrong in thinking that these evils can be suppressed by Draconian discipline and what amounts to police-state tactics. He actually represents the kind of regime that tends to take over when the enlightenment destroys all social discipline. He strongly dislikes teenagers, and goes so far as to characterize them as "walking hormonal time bombs." His view of human nature and of sexuality in particular is not the Enlightenment view, but neither is it Christian--it is purely Manichaean. The world and the body are evil. Which brings us to a crucial point--the role of sexual disorder in the general breakdown of the social order. Perhaps the most pernicious corollary of the Enlightenment concept of natural human goodness is the notion that if people are freed from all sexual restraints, we will have the perfect realm of sexual satisfaction and human happiness. In reality, unlimited sexual freedom creates montrosities--things like AIDS, herpes, million of abortions, marital breakdown, and illegitimacy. In the BUFFY series, several episodes get into this area. For instance, there is an episode in which a beautiful, thirtyish substitute teacher shows up on campus and sets to work seducing adolescent boys, nearly every young male's favorite fantasy these days. The only problem is, she is in reality not a woman at all, but a giant praying mantis able to make herself appear to be a woman. She goes aftewr young men who are virgins, drugs them, then, at her leisure, "mates with" them, climaxing the act by biting their heads off (the actual procedure with real praying mantises). The hyena episode also involves sexual issues, as Buffy's friend Xander, who is in love with her, having accidentally become possessed by a hyena spirit, tries to rape her. In a more recent episode, a local college fraternity lures high school girls to its parties, drugs them, then feeds them to a demonic, snake-like creature that lives under the fraternity house. If that isn't a personification of uncontrolled lust, what is? And, of course, vampires themselves, in popular fiction like Bram Stoker's DRACULA, have always been a powerful symbol of uncontrolled lust. Sex is, after all, in a very real sense the source of life, and apire, in sucking the blood out of someone, sucks out the life. It is interesting to point out here that Buffy herself is a virgin, as are, apparently, her friends Xander and Willow. The show's producers have promised that there will never be a "very special episode" of Buffy--that is, one in which Buffy loses her virginity. It remains to be seen whether they will keep that promise. (In an amusing aside to the praying mantis episode, both the boys who have been abducted deny vigorously that they are virgins, and one even threatens to sue if the word of his virginity gets out--that is how far the Enlightenment has brought us.) And, of course, we must note the centrality of Christian symbols in the series, even though none of the characters appear to be churchgoers. Buffy wears a crucufix at all times to ward off vampires and other demons, and keeps holy water with her. There really seems to be an idea, built into this series, that to fight evil, one must keep oneself pure. It is positively incredible to find such an idea popping up in the midst of a world of entertainment which includes such atrocities as FRIENDS, SEINFELD, and the horrendous daytime talk shows. The Christian perspective on evil is so obvious in the BUFFT series that I cannot believe that some of the writers, at least, do not have some idea of what they are doing. The protest against the horrors of the Enlightenment is becoming conscious and explicit, and that is a sign of hope. I do have one caveat here, and that is Buffy's relationship to the character called Angel, a vampire who was once given back his human soul as a result of a gypsy curse, and now has reformed and no longer attacks humans. He and Buffy are obviously falling in love with each other. The question is: Does this represent a temptation for her to compromise with evil and perhaps lose her ability to fight it as she loses her purity, or does it express the possibility of redemption, through love, even for those most enslaved to evil? How the series deals with this will determine the final verdict on its meaning.

What if Snyder and the Mayor are demons? Like Whistler. They might think Buffy is a bad demon and not really understand she's the slayer. They might just want to get rid of her. Maybe they think she's the demon of chaos since so much of it follows her around. That would explain why he's been so hard on her, instead of just being the obligatory thorn in her story plots.

I've been religiously watching and taping Buffy the Vampire Slayer since the series started. However, when someone posted the entire episodes for season 1 and 2, looking at the list and comparing it to my tape collection of episodes, I have all of them labelled except Harvest. What episode was Harvest? And was it the SECOND episode to air in the first season?

What I can tell you that i have heard through the "rumormill" is this: (yes, this is RUMOR only). - - Angel returns via a magic spell that involves the ring he gave Buffy (He "hinted" about this in a recent AOL interview last week) - - Spike & Dru are in NYC & for whatever reason, have to go back to Sunndale. - - The Mayor & Snyder are connected to Hellmuth (good demons???). - - Buffy does return to Sunnydale (Duh, we all knew this would happen). - - Don't ask what part the mother will now play.....nobody has touched upon that one yet. There is a interesting website with "spoilers" on them & alot of other stuff. One of the better sites I have seen. Check out the Spoilers page & go to the message boards. ALSO.....due to the fact Canadians & people in Australia get to see the shows before the United States does, this was a GREAT way to find out what was going to happen before seeing the show (for those who can't wait).
