THREADS
ON
When you watch BtVS, you start to pick up on certain themes, characters and ideas that run from one show to another. I've starting to catalogue some of these threads - the ones that I find to be interesting. Of course, I have included major guest stars as threads, in addition to couples, major themes and some that are idiosyncratic favorites of mine, such as eps with Buffy wearing baggy clothing. I hope that you enjoy reading the list as much as I've had compiling it. Keep in mind that this list is still under construction, and is a work in progress. I haven't had a chance to watch all the shows with these threads in mind, nor have I even begun to think up all the threads I want to showcase. Doing these lists were fun -- they gave me the chance to watch Buffy eps with a new, critical eye. And now, on to the lists.
