'Buffy' lives on -- in Sarah Michelle Gellar's Instagram, and in a box of DVDs I still have at my parent's house (sorry Dad).

The actress shared rare photos from Buffy on her Instagram Wednesday, tying their release to International Women's Day and the show's 21st anniversary.

This is one PR stunt we can all get behind.

"I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the anniversary of #btvs is the same week as #internationalwomensday. I have always believed that the world is changed by your example, not by your opinion," Gellar wrote in her post.

Gellar went on to quote the show.

“From now on, we won’t just face our fears, we will seek them out. We will find them, and cut their hearts out one by one. There is only one thing on earth more powerful than evil, and that’s us.”

To see the rest of the photos, you'll need to scroll through them by clicking on her Instagram above.

As of now there's no Buffy reboot in the works, though the show will have new adventures in the form of Slayer, an upcoming Young Adult book series to be released by Simon & Schuster.

We Xennial fans will take what we can get.
