Buffy The Vampire Slayer

2) Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Joss Whedon’s 1992 notion of the dead-blonde-from-the-horror-movies-gets-revenge didn’t exactly translate perfectly on the big-screen, especially since he wasn’t in charge. That change when he took the reins and took Buffy and a new set of mentors and pals to the tube in 1997. The ongoing metaphor of high-school, then “your 20s” as horror story captivated a group of die-hard fans for seven seasons even as the critically praised show spawned a spin-off (“Angel”) and a continued-continuity comic series (helmed by Whedon) that runs even now.

Final Analysis: One of the best reboots of all. The goofy movie became a solid series. There’s been talk of original producers the Kuzuis doing their own new Buffy film without any of the series characters owned by Whedon; we don’t see that one going too well, especially with series stars like Alyson Hannigan dumping on it in the press (as she did in December at CinemaBlend).
