Buffy had some good dialogue, but its actual range of characters was pretty narrow. Basically young white urban 90s teens for the most part. Which is kind of a problem if you're trying to write ancient Amazon goddesses or 50 year old black men or anything that isn't well a young white urban 90s teen

Would it help to try relating characters to real people you know? Your parents don't talk like you, I'm guessing. Neither do 15 year olds these days. Or people from other countries. Or those with very different backgrounds from you. Pick some random people you actually know and try writing things in their voice - they don't all sound like Buffy
