Buffy never had the same dramatic stakes after season 2. Every episode Angelus was in seemed to find a new way to emotionally scar Buffy and her friends in ways they never truly recovered from. That's also a lot of what makes season 1 great tbh. It didn't have all of that trauma and felt light and fun and cozy. On its own it's good but in hindsight it's the only time when having a main character whose name was "Buffy" was 100% tonally appropriate.
