We've never seen an episode of Buffy, TeenAuthorsForTheWin, but now we're totally sold! Netflix, here we come. —Sparkitors
I used to be one of those poor saps who had only heard of Buffy the Vampire Slayer; I just assumed it was the original version of "older-vamp-stalks-girl." Then, I found it on Netflix, watched the first six seasons, and FELL IN LOVE. It's virtually impossible not to drool over all the guys in the series. I mean, sure, some of them have, erm, issues, but that doesn't mean they're not HOT. So without further ado, I give you the extreme hotness of the BUFFY GUYS.
Xander Harris: He's sweet, he's funny, and he kicks major butt. Plus, he's a human! He constantly looks out for Buffy, Willow, and Dawn, even though he doesn't have Buffy's strength or Willow's magic. In Buffy's words, "Xander's gotten more field time than all of you watchers combined." This guy is amazingly awesome, and the ladies love him: he dates a ex-vengeance demon and the gorgeous Cordelia. Can you get any more hard-core? I think not.
Angel/Angelus: With a soul, he's dreamy, brooding, and intensely in love; without one, he's a murderous jerk. Oddly enough, I can't decide which version I like better. It's pretty epic to watch him transform from a sweet, caring guy into a "IMMA-KILL-YOU" monster. Plus, he's totally got the large forehead thing going for him.
Spike/William the Bloody: Come ON: Edward Cullen has got NOTHIN' on this guy. If I want a sparkly vampire, I'll bedazzle Spike. He's just so evil—and yet, he killed tons of demons to prove his love to Buffy, AND he sacrificed himself to save Dawn. He doesn't even have a soul, yet he proves again and again how selfless he can be without one. He takes the cake (and the blood) for my biggest crush. If you haven't seen him rock his tight leather pants, you're missing out. And one more thing: he's got an ENGLISH ACCENT. I believe that wins any argument.
Giles: I know, some of you are saying "EWWWW" right about now, but hear me out: I've got purely platonic feeling for Giles. He's always there for Buffy when she needs him, and he helps her out time and time again. Plus (SPOILER ALERT), he knows when it's time to let Buffy go after her mom dies. Giles is a big awesome British teddy bear.
Riley Finn: I had a hard time deciding to put Riley on my crush list, because he's done some pretty screwed up things. But even if Buffy and Riley's relationship didn't end so well (Riley gets married to someone else and Buffy starts playing Monopoly with Spike), he's still got that irresistible boyish charm. Plus, when he comes back on the scene in Season Six, you can't tell me his scar isn't incredibly sexy.
I'm totally stealing the Sparkitors' thunder here, but did I miss anyone? Tell me in the comments! But please, no spoilers, I've spoiled so much for myself already! (DARN YOU, BUFFY WIKIPEDIA. WHY MUST YOU TELL SO MUCH?)
She's right, she did steal our thunder. SIGH. Just answer her question. We don't mind.
