What Should I Watch After Buffy? (yep, finally time for the poll)
Added 2023-02-08 20:08:05 +0000 UTCHello! So... I am so incredibly nervous about this post since it means actually talking about the end of Buffy... and that makes me very very sad :( I have loved this show and the journey of watching it over the past 3 years :') It means the world to me that so many of you decided to join me in watching and discussing it every week.
If you decide to stay with me, what show should I start with?
**just to start after Buffy ends! I will do another poll once Angel ends to add another show.
I am set to finish Buffy around April, so this show's reactions would start in that month.
All of these shows I know either nothing or next to nothing about (except Teen Wolf which I mention in the poll)
And all of these are shows that at least multiple people have suggested I add on the poll. I, of course, probably missed a few, but those will come later on once I add more in the future :)
Just a side note:
I do want to continue making Buffy content in the form of the comics and possibly the video games (I want to try and start streaming again for this). I even want to dip my toes into video essays if you guys are interested. And uhh.. I still need to edit my edited versions for youtube lmaooo 😆
So even tho I will say goodbye to the show, I will still be making Buffy content... Lets be real, this is now my favorite show... There is no way I can just turn my back on it.
And I am sure more collabs with fellow reactors talking about Buffy will continue to be made :)
I hope you guys enjoyed the journey as much as I have. And I hope if you decide to stay with me, that the next journey is just as fun 💗

Xena! The only show on the list that aired before buffy. And the only one that comes close in my opinion. It's early - mid 90s... so there's definitely a bit of a barrier there. But I really think xena was a huge stepping stone for shows like buffy. And it has my favourite character development out of any show of all time. Would love to see you react. It would be a struggle at first... I can't deny that. But once you're into it.. it's like nothing else. I reckon you'd love it

2023-03-03 15:29:49 +0000 UTCHow about something like 'Fleabag' or "End of the Fucking World"? I think a short series with female lead would be the way to go. On this list, Dollhouse or Veronica Mars would be the ones I'd choose.
that bear over there
2023-03-01 13:38:02 +0000 UTCI’d absolutely love you to watch Xena and all it’s camp one day!

2023-02-24 13:21:22 +0000 UTCI’m this close to campaigning openly in the comments, because VM is criminally under-covered in the reaction space. I think she should wait in firefly until the end of Angel, bc VM is such a better successor to Buddy. I love Firefly, but I just think the connective tissue between Buffy and VM is SO strong, whilst being entirely it’s own thing.

2023-02-23 04:36:46 +0000 UTCI think Alley would enjoy The Good Place, as she does like analysing characters and character growth. A thought for a future selection maybe?

2023-02-21 18:28:25 +0000 UTCI voted for Firefly, but Veronica Mars doesn't get enough love.

2023-02-20 07:01:23 +0000 UTCI would also like to suggest the 2000s Battlestar Galactica as a future selection if you havent seen it

2023-02-18 21:06:36 +0000 UTCDollhouse had such a brilliant conception, and if it weren’t cancelled & as a result shoved into 2 seasons, I believe it would’ve been even greater. It’s still a show to watch!
2023-02-16 00:02:16 +0000 UTCAgents of Shield is such an underdog here, it's a phenomenal show.
2023-02-15 06:49:05 +0000 UTCas a word of note, if/when you get to watch Charmed, I would advise getting ahold of the dvds, since the music was changed with streaming and digital copies

2023-02-14 04:52:49 +0000 UTCAgents Of Shield probably wont win but it looks like most of the shows on the poll are either short or a reasonable length so hopefully it can get on the next poll
