Trivia:
Joss Whedon was so frustrated by how much of his vision was being mishandled and how much of it was being rewritten that he eventually left the set during production and never came back. moreGoofs:
Factual errors: When trying to 'bond' with Buffy, the counselor confesses he used drugs while watching the Doobie Brothers in the ‘60s. The band didn't form until 1970. moreQuotes:
Cheerleaders: How funky is your chicken? How funky is your chicken? How loose is your goose? Our goose is totally loose! So come on all you Hog fans, so come on all you Hog fans and shake your caboose, and shake your caboose! WHoooO! moreSoundtrack:

underrated action/comedy: witty, intelligent, nuanced humor in the writing and acting. Lest people forget, this was an early entry in the no-longer-waiting-for-her-prince, newly-empowered, women-who-can-kick-butt genre ....full of satire and irony for the non-literal viewer.....truly delightful!
