"I may be dead, but I'm still pretty!" Legolas Send a noteboard - 08/09/2010 10:18:43 PM
I love season one. It's so corny for the most part, but that's part of the fun.
In television series about vampires, when someone is unconscious and in need of mouth-to-mouth, and the vampire says that they cannot do it because they are not alive... it makes me want to throw things at the screen.

Seriously. They are TALKING. Clearly they are able to use their lungs to force air out their mouths. It really does not matter that they themselves do not absorb the oxygen they breathe in. In fact, that should make them even more ideal candidates, as the air they would force down someone else's lungs would be much richer in oxygen content.

And they're very visibly breathing. Sometimes even panting. Yeah. It doesn't make much sense.
Where oh where did this idea come from and why do people keep doing it to me?

Have you encountered it more than just in Buffy, then? And I suppose because they have to make at least a token effort to making clear to the audience that the vampires are really undead demons and not just superstrong humans.

Because TV shows about vampires are usually not concerned about science? *NM* - 08/09/2010 10:07:53 PM 302 Views
