Re: "I thought this was a comedy?"

Not genre per se, but before I saw it I always thought Buffy was some Sweet Valley High-esque show, that Buffy was basically a bimbo, and... yeah. I was not expecting the strong characters and emotional depth at all.

That's actually a reasonable assumption, considering what the original movie was like.

Not saying the movie is bad, mind you; just that it's very different from the show in terms of style and tone and... everything.

AYRT - I never actually saw the movie; I think it was mostly the names of the characters, tbh, as well as the way pop culture tended to describe them. (Teen magazines completely like totally dumbed the show down. "And like Buffy like has a sister OMG!!!")

Sweet Valley High was a show? I only knew of it through the dozens of terrible, child-level-trashy novels I found at the library in the late 90s and early 00s. When was this?

Technically yeah, but I was mostly referring to the books. My point was more that I didn't think the show would have much depth to it.
