Behind The Scenes
The actual house that was used for exterior shots of Buffy’s fictional residence is an occupied house on a narrow, tree-lined suburban street in Torrance, California — three blocks north of Torrance High School, which doubled as Sunnydale High School. It was also used for some interior scenes during season one. However, according to Marti Noxon in a DVD commentary, after the explosion scene from the season three finale "Graduation Day" woke up residents, broke windows, and set off car alarms, the town of Torrance refused to allow the Buffy crew to film there again. As a result, exterior shots of the front of the house were rarely used again.
Beginning in season seven the house began functioning as the main headquarters for the Scooby Gang, and as a result became the most heavily filmed-in location and the location to feature the most exposition writing, leading it to become the most hated of the Buffy sets by the crew for that year.

Famous quotes containing the word scenes:
“One reason writers write is out of revenge. Life hurts; certain ideas and experiences hurt; one wants to clarify, to set out illuminations, to replay the old bad scenes and get the Treppenworte saidthe words one didnt have the strength or ripeness to say when those words were necessary for ones dignity or survival.”
—Cynthia Ozick (b. 1928)
