From the very beginning, Buffy's snappy, sparkling dialogue and incisive insight into the human condition has been acclaimed by critics and fans alike. 'Writing as good as that for Hill Street Blues, The Simpsons or...Alan Bleasdale at his best' said the Guardian as far back as season one. 'The only show outside Larry Sanders where you rewind to confirm that the wit was that dark' said the style gurus on Uncut four seasons later. 'Wittier than The West Wing' affirmed Time magazine. On the internet, fan sites abound with choice quotes painstakingly culled from favourite episodes, and no episode review in the cult TV press is complete without a 'best dialogue' postcript. Now for the first time comes a collection of hundreds of quotes from all seven seasons of the show. Whether pithy or moving, funny or profound: the complete range of this remarkable drama is here for fans to refer to again and again.
