Ahead of Your Halloween Rewatch, Ranking All 7 Seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer

You win some, you lose some. Buffy: New Sunnydale, Hulu's continuation of the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer with Chloé Zhao and original star Sarah Michelle Gellar attached, was officially not moving forward as of March.

It appeared for a while that Dynamite Entertainment's forthcoming comics reboot of the Buffyverse, by Kelly Thompson and Stephen Byrne, was just as canceled. However, Dynamite recently resolicited both Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel – which appear to be interquels set between seasons 5 and 6 of the original run — for an unspecified future date.

For this Halloween, that does mean Buffy fans and newcomers will have to tide themselves over with the established Buffyverse: 7 seasons of TV, 5 full "seasons" of official comics, and a host of hazily out-of-continuity novels, video games, and older Dark Horse comic tie-ins.

If you’re looking to stick with the canon, Buffy's original TV series is a rollercoaster ride. When Buffy was firing on all cylinders, it offered some of the best TV ever made. When it was having an off day, on the other hand, it was... okay, but caught a lot of smoke because its heights were so high. The problem with making a TV show that people care about is that they tend to put it on a pedestal, and there's nowhere to go from there but down.

If you're interested in checking out Buffy for the first time this Halloween, it's a creepy enough ride to get you through the spooky season.
