Buffy

Okay, what kind of a name is Buffy anyway? Despite being prepared to dislike Buffy the Vampire Slayer purely on that account, I found that I actually enjoyed the first few episodes. It was humorous and very tongue-in-cheek. Admittedly a little too smarmy sometimes, but not offensively so. I guess you need to be open minded. I don't care for the spooky, dark, undead things, so I was glad for the spunky Buffy and friends who were very much alive and (mostly) having fun. The only thing I don't think I can do is make a short-term commitment to watching all 6 seasons of episodes on DVD. I might try a few more to have fun with, but it will be a while before I catch up. But, Joss Whedon non-withstanding, I pledge to avoid Angel. That looks to be a little too dark for my taste. And besides he gives me the heebie jeebies.

Hehe. I do that, too. I vow to dislike things mainly because so many other people like them, but then end up becoming somewhat addicted. But I promised to not ever, ever, watch the Simpsons. Even I have my limits...
