My Buffy Problem

I like Spuffy as a couple, I intensely dislike Bangel, but I really like Angel as a character. Angel might actually be my favorite character, I just can’t stand him with Buffy, I think they bring out the worst in each other. My problem, why do so many Spuffy stories have to come with Angel bashing? They give plenty of evidence for why they don’t work together that doesn’t take from either character. Why do they have to turn Angel into this huge bully? Why can’t they just have Angel naturally mature away from Buffy? I get he had a lot of problematic behavior around her when he was with her, treating her like one of his former victims minus the killing at the end, but he hadn’t been around humans in decades, he didn’t know how to act around them. Angel’s show is all about him learning to be human, really, Buffy showed him that he could be redeemed, that’s why he’s so attached, but they don’t work. Also, what’s with everyone saying he lost his soul because he had took Buddy’s virginity? It was about her acceptance of him, he felt absolved by her so he could feel truly happy for a brief moment. After Angelus returned, Angel realized he could never be absolved by someone else, he just has to be better on his own and help people. I’m just frustrated by people feeling the need to detract from Angel as a character in order to boost Spuffy, Spuffy doesn’t need it, Spike and Buffy work as a couple on their own because they’re compatible people.

I might not know much, but I know one thing: the song 'loom' by Zach Bryan was written for and about Spike from buffy.

well hello spuffy, andreil, sterek, trick, harringrove, destiel, gallavich, bellarke, zukka-

Buffy the Vampire Slayer | 4x05 - Beer Bad

Spike and buffy have my heart and soul. I haven't watched the show in ages, but they take up so much space in my head.

After reading many posts, I have only one question:

Is there ANYONE who likes the new season?

is that giles as an adult again?

@thirteenthblackbird Yeah, it is. I, personally, liked the idea of young Giles, I just don’t think the idea/concept was utilized as much as it could have been or explored as uniquely and interestingly as it could have been. But I know I’m in the minority with that. So Whedon just went the lazy fanservice route and made Giles an adult again (apparently using a spell they found). It all happened off-screen, even though there had been a Giles Mini during Season 11 that would have been the perfect opportunity to pursue that particular plot point. Ugh. There is just so much lazy and bad writing in Season 12.

WHY?! WHY they all trying to destroy such an amazing story (both comics and movie) and brilliant characters.

They doing this fucking reboot. In the comics, they destroyed Spuffy relationship giving the most idiotic excuse ever (for this characters). Everyone complains that the plot is disappointing and characters behave in a weird way.

They’re doing a buffy reboot… Like… Why? I mean if it’s like a sequel thing maybe but if it’s just a real reboot… Nope? Besides… Honestly… Can it ever be as good as the original?

And don’t those people have new fresh ideas for shows anymore??? The amount of reboots around are astonishing. We’re already getting Charmed, now we’re getting Buffy as well? What’s next? The Pretender? The Sentinel?
