Buffy the Vampire Slayer as Family Melodrama

This presentation argues that the Buffy the Vampire Slayer television series is a family melodrama that displays many of the same conventions as television soap operas. The show is highly melodramatic, focusing upon the heightened emotional states that exist within families and emphasizing women’s experiences and female heroism.
