School Hard S2 E3
This week on Buffy and the Art of Story: School Hard (Season 2 Episode 3 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer).
This podcast episode covers (1) very s trong story structure despite no striking midpoint commitment by Buffy; (2) t he concept of the worthy adversary; (3) m other-daughter conflict; (4) embedding story questions; and (5) s o much foreshadowing about Spike (in the Spoiler section).
As always, the discussion is spoiler-free, except at the end (with plenty of warning).
