In this episode, We discuss a controversial fictional character: Dawn Summers, little sister to Buffy, The Vampire Slayer. After explaining who she is and how she was included in the show, we consider the interactions she had with other characters and their opinions of her. Then we dig into some of the audience opinions of her that are out there, to see why she was even a character worth covering on this podcast. Finally we think about the world that Dawn shows up in, how she struggles with her role, her reality, and her grief when she loses those that she loves. And we suggest why maybe she doesn’t need to be included on any of those “TV’s worst character lists” after all!
