Decades after its release, people are still talking about Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
The well-loved TV series made its debut in 1997, and went on to run for seven seasons.
Sarah Michelle Gellar portrayed the lead of Buffy, while the likes of How I Met Your Mother star Alyson Hannigan, James Marsters, and Michelle Trachtenberg made names for themselves on the drama series too.
Buffy officially ended in 2003, and 22 years later, fans of the show are still sharing their theories about it.

One person who still gives the 00s favorite series the time of day is Charisma Carpenter, who played Cordelia Chase in Buffy and its spin-off series, Angel.
The two characters had a love-hate relationship with one another, with Cordelia being the resident 'mean girl' on the show.
Carpenter often chats about the series on her TikTok page, where she answers a lot of fans' comments and questions.
In recent days, one person shared their theory to the actress. They suggested: "Cordy was a better friend to Buffy than most of the scoobies."
"Ooo, this is such an unpopular take," Carpenter began her response to the Buffy fan.
"This is gonna cause some controversy," she went on.
"You really think so? You think that Cordy was a better friend to Buffy than the Scoobies? Holy sh*t. I’m gonna need a bullet point dissertation and all the ways you can prove that to be true."
The actress then urged her followers to share their thoughts in the comments section.
"Get busy. I need to know. Tell me in the comments immediately. Immediately," Carpenter said.
"You got to tell me all the ways that you can prove that Cordy was a better friend to Buffy than her Scooby Gang. Also, was Cordy a Scooby, a reluctant Scooby. a Scooby nonetheless? Give it to me in the comments. I need to know."
Responding to her request, one person replied: "She wouldn't have let them kick Buffy out of her own house!"
"Cordelia saw Buffy as Buffy, her actual 'friends' only saw her as the slayer," suggested another.
A third added: "Having recently re watched this back. Yes. Cordy and Tara were better friends than Willow and Xander."
Another person echoed similar sentiments and praised Cordelia for always being honest.
Someone else insisted: "This is not unpopular. This is the only take."
If you're wanting to rewatch Buffy to refresh your memory on such matters, all seven seasons are available to stream on Hulu.
