Yeah, Buffy is one of my favourite programmes. It's a show with great heart, and humour, and cleverness.
I was a big fan of Willow and Tara, Spike, Faith and the Mayor, Glory, and Giles. Andrew and Jonathan were quite funny too. And Xander was great. And of course our Anya. Xander and Anya have a whole NT/Aspie thing going on there that appeals to me.
Dawn annoyed the hell out of me.
Angel was much more interesting without a soul. Soppy, deep and meaningful, Angel was not my cup of tea at all.
I don't watch it so much now, but it's still in my top 10.
Anya: Oh, crap. Look at this! Now I'm burdened with a husband and several tiny pink children, more cash than I can reasonably manage...
Xander: That means you're winning.
Anya: Really?
Xander: Yes. Cash equals good.
Anya: Ooh! I'm so pleased. Can I trade in the children for more cash?

Anya: Oh, that girl. Tara and I met her. She speaks with a strange evenness and selects her words a shade too precisely.
Xander: Well, some of us like that kind of thing in a girl.
