The act of speaking and communicating are two very distinct actions. It is a common misconception that the only way to communicate with someone is by verbally speaking to them; but how would people communicate if one lost the ability to speak? The episode “Hush” in Buffy the Vampire Slayer-- an Emmy nominated series-- displays the relationship between talking and communicating, when evil creatures called The Gentlemen steal the voices of the citizens of Sunnydale. Buffy and her friends finds ways
Buffy the Vampire Slayer was not just written for entertainment. The episodes were created with a deeper purpose behind them. The smallest object, line, or scene would have the biggest impact on the point of an episode.

”No, I’d say brave in this case,” Willow confirmed, ”And even braver that you stick with it after all you’ve probably seen.” Hopping down from the bar stool for the second time tonight, Willow was thankful that David suggested the move. The booths would provide much more comfort for the group to relax and converse. She took the first open spot and was followed by David. For a brief moment she was worried about the previously mentioned cold. A medical doctor with David’s experience should have enough
Buffy and Angel The relationship between Buffy and Angel is ecstatic. The relationship itself has power, lust, and is fully intriguing. The relationship between Buffy and Angel was doomed from the start because, Buffy is a vampire slayer and Angel is a vampire. Clearly the two do not go well, I mean seriously, what kind of combo is Buffy and Angel really? Could they be a couple like Romeo and Juliet and play a tragic role in language arts, or will they end up like Peter Pan and Wendy, two people
Scooby-doo (Joe Ruby 1969) is one of the most popular characters when discussing the mystery team. Every morning children across the United States waited for the theme song, “Scoo-bee-doo-be-doo, where are you?” to watch the interesting mystery cases and to see what role Scooby played in helping solve the case. His love for food made him comparable to any other dog. His favorite snack was the infamous ‘Scooby Snack’. Whenever he did something good, Shaggy or another member of the Mystery team would

Scooby, speaks English, but it’s definitely rough English. Scooby can speak English like his four human friends, but he’s a tad harder to understand.

Supporting Johnson's Sleeper Curve theory, multithreading is an example that is making viewers smarter, Scooby Doo and Gravity Falls are both examples that support his claim. To explain the multithreading Johnson says,"When we watch TV, we intuitively track narrative-threads-per-episode as a measure of a given show's complexity. And all the evidence suggests that this standard has been rising steadily over the past two decades"(72). Johnson is conveying that due to the increase of complexity in
One of my favorite television series is Scooby-Doo. Although I haven’t seen the show in a while, one of my favorite live action shows did a cross over with Scooby-Doo. In its earlier days, Scooby-Doo was a multiframed cartoon that used full cel animation to project apparent movement (Lester 39, 250, 262). The original series was the best in my opinion because it had the original voices and nostalgic music of the day. All of the characters in the show were symbolic of a person in the friend group
