Derry, Maine. Twin Peaks, Washington. Sunnydale, CA. Hawkins, Indiana. We got any other idyllic small American towns sitting atop on a sinister, otherworldly power that I’m forgetting about?

My yearly Thanksgiving treat to y'all:

From interviewing Jane Espenson (who said it wasn't in the script)+ Cynthia Bergstrom (costume designer), I learned the cowboy hat Buffy wears in the show's only Thanksgiving ep, that undercuts her Village People joke, was just something SMG wanted to wear
