Sarah Michelle Gellar Gave A Touching Tribute To "Buffy" On Its 19th Anniversary

    "I am and forever will be #grateful."

    Yesterday marked 19 full years since Buffy Summers, Chosen One and Number One Slayer, first graced our television sets on Buffy The Vampire Slayer.

    You remember Buffy, yes? The most important show of the '90s and early '00s?

    The show that would, over the course of seven seasons, make us feel every emotion on the human spectrum?

    Since those days, Buffy (AKA Sarah Michelle Gellar) has grown up and taken on lots of different roles and projects...

    ...but she's still got a special place for the show in her heart. And every so often she treats us to #TBT pics and memories on her Instagram.

    And so, to commemorate the show's 19th anniversary, she posted a picture of Buffy from the very first episode, with a sweet message about gratitude.

    Remember that iconic blue blouse? It's the blouse Buffy wore when she first kicked Darla's ass.

    It's the blouse she wore when she and Willow chilled at The Bronze for the first time, chatting about boys.

    It's the blouse she wore when she FIRST MET ANGEL.

    And he gave her that very, very important necklace. Geez, that blouse was so important.

    Love you forever, Buff.
