When did Buffy the Vampire Slayer jump the shark? 🦈

Season 6, Episode 1

The show 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' is often said to have jumped the shark at the beginning of Season 6. This season began with a significant tonal shift, including darker themes and storylines that deviated from the original charm and wit of earlier seasons. The resurrection of Buffy, combined with some controversial plot decisions such as the 'magic as a drug addiction' storyline, led to a decline in critical reception and audience engagement.
