Of course Buffy has a huge fanbase even years after... it's entirely made up of dudes who consider themselves feminists, dudes who think one or more of the stars are hot, and women who have been duped into thinking that the show portrays women positively... but yeah, they're out there. Why wouldn't they be? How much entertainment was aimed at that particular intersection of age & interests at that particular time? I don't fit into any of those categories, really, and I'm a fan... ;D

"Goons" (I would say whipped guys who watch what their wives tell them to, but I don't know how long you've been married. I do know a guy who claims to be a "fan" of this crap all the time just because he doesn't have a choice about what he watches)

I watched it when it was originally showing. Got my wife hooked on it a few years back. I agree it degenerated a lot towards the end, but I'm still a fan.
Fifth category: WK's contrary alter ego. So bleh.

You mean F-Bomb? I don't think he would be interested in Buffy either.

Exactly what happened with me, except that I prefer the mid and late seasons ;-) Heck, I still enjoy the original movie that spawned the show (in highschool I actually wrote four or five episodes of my own BtVS tv show before this ever aired). Be glad Joss got his approved before I did... :-p

I didn't dislike the latter seasons, mind you. But they did get a bit wacked. The mid seasons were my favorites, for sure.
And WK has multiple contrary personalities, I'm just the good-looking one. ;D

What? Why am I in that equation too? Also, wouldn't it be WK = FBomb = SK = Black Sam?

Don't be silly, Brainy! We're not all the same person! That's crazy talk.
We are all just fucking with you, though.
