Character representation: Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is about a character named Buffy Summers, who is part of many young women who are Vampire Slayers. The Slayers are chosen to battle against vampires, demons, and more. Buffy is trained by a Watcher, who also guides her.

Buffy is presented as a very strong minded woman as well as physically strong. She is a determined and confindent individual which contrasts the stereotypical view of women in society and other films where they are presented as fragile and emotionally delicate. Her role in the programme makes females look tougher and more superior as females are chosen to defeat the vampires instead of men. Most of the demons and vampires are male and they always get defeated which shows the power of the female over the male. This is different to other programmes as males are usually the central protagonists and females are less focused on. Buffy does show some fear in episodes when confronted by a demon/vampire which shows she still has sensitive female characteristics and is not 100% fearless. Buffy is different to girls in society now, however quite similar as she has her own group of friends who she trusts and who also help her defeat vamps and demons.Her appearance can disguise her personality as she looks like a 'typical' female with curled hair, make up, jewelry and a less of a 'tomboy' dressing, therefore she is represented as a typical female.

A fighting, and strong woman can appeal to some men which falls into audience. However, Buffy isn't very seductive during the programme, her clothes are slightly revealing but are casual clothes unlike compared to Cat Woman who is dressed in a tight, one piece, sexy outfit.
