This time on Buffy and the Art of Story, Buffy vs Dracula (Season 5 Episode 1 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer), where Buffy faces off against the famous count. This podcast episode looks at:
(1) Buffy as both protagonist and damsel in distress; (2) major plot turns that affect the pace; (3) how Buffy vs Dracula resets the series for the new season; and (4) gamechangers versus cliffhangers (with the gamechanger of all gamechangers at the episode end).
Spoiler-free, except at the end (with plenty of warning).
Last Episode: Bonus – Giles & Buffy (A New Man and The Dark Age)
Next Up: Real Me (S5 E2)
