“Buffy the Vampire Slayer” became both a cult phenomenon and a mainstream success over the course of seven glorious seasons before bowing off the air. But Buffy is still slaying it if you know where to look. If you know where to watch “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” online, you can catch all your favorite episodes on your computer, smartphone, smart TV, or streaming-box-supported regular TV. Below, we’ll lay out everything you need to know about how and where to watch “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” online, including whether you can watch “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” on Netflix, Hulu, and other on-demand streaming services.

We promised we’d tell you whether you can watch “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” on Netflix, and we will. The answer is, uh, no, you can’t. That’s because Netflix dropped the show a while back, cruelly leaving Buffy buffs without the show and its spinoff, “Angel.”

But all hope is not yet lost. There are other on-demand streaming services out there, and we’ll show you where you can watch “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” on demand.

Hulu is one place to watch “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” online. You may already know about Hulu, but here’s the drill: It’s an on-demand streaming service (like Netflix), but it has commercials unless you’re willing to pay extra.

Amazon Prime Video

If you subscribe to Amazon Prime, you have access to a library of on-demand TV shows and movies — including “Buffy the Vampire Slayer.” At the moment, Amazon Prime Video has all seven seasons of “Buffy” ready to stream.

Buffy deserves the big screen. Good news: Thanks to great platform support, it’s a breeze to get a stream of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” on your favorite TV.

Amazon Prime Video has apps available on Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, Android TV, Chromecast, iOS, Android, and web browser. If you’re using an Xbox or PlayStation game console, then you can also stream TV shows and movies from Prime Video.

“Buffy” may have left cable TV a long time ago, but that doesn’t mean you can’t still watch the show. By choosing one of the streaming options above, you can binge the series if you’re new to it or rewatch your favorite episodes if you’re a die-hard “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” fanatic.

Or maybe you’re hoping to see more work from “Buffy” showrunner Joss Whedon. Whedon’s work with the DC film universe can be found on Max, and so can his recent original series “The Nevers.”  Max is a great on-demand streaming service, so check out our Max review.
