Tonight, I begin my 4th annual Buffy-thon, all 7 seasons in a row. Last year I added the 5 seasons of Angel in as well. Idk if I'll have time for that this year.
Huge fan of the series and of Whedon, Marsters and all. So anyways, just sharing to find out who is Buffy fans or does anyone else have a show they do this sort of thing with?

There a reason why you do during a certain time during the year?

I'm in Pre-Production on my next project, a web series. Last year I did it during Pre-Prod on my short film. I guess that's sort of the reason I've started doing it. It keeps me inspired and motivated while I move forward on my own projects.

I'm actually almost done my 3rd Buffy series viewing. It's not exactly yearly...although, it might have been 3 in 3 years...I guess I'm doing the same, and I didn't even realize it. I watched Angel after the first two runs, but I don't think I'll hit the whole show after this run, just season 5 so I can watch Spike return right away.
Everything Whedon does is amazing. I've seen it all: Buffy, Angel, Firefly/Serenity, Dollhouse, Dr. Horrible, and can't wait for The Avengers this summer!

It was produced to fill a time slot quickly and cheaply. But the show really does get better from then on. I recommend it to anyone who like supernatural stuff. It's well written, a lot of individual episodes are absolutely STELLAR. I think it's available on Netflix if you don't want to buy it. Great show though.

I do the same with HBO's 'Rome'. Never seen it, is it worth purchasing on DVD? That's how I enjoy my HBO. I have to wait yearly for True Blood and Entourage, but now that Entourage is over, I'm gonna have to find something new.

Here's the link to it's IMDB, 9.1/10. www.imdb.com/title/tt0384766/There's some scenes which are a bit graphic in it but if you don't mind that it's certainly worth watching, especially if you have an interest in that period of the past or would like to develop one. There are some fantastic performances through-out the series and the visuals in it are beautiful.

There are some shows I go through the entire run of every now and then.
Farscape, Babylon 5, Firefly, Battle Star Gallactica, Star Trek TNG, 24.
Buffy is weird to me. I didn't hate it, but despite trying several times, I could never get into the show. I like Wedon a lot, and I feel like I am supposed to like it, but I just can't.

Love Buffy. Just finally made myself sit down and watch all of Angel for the first time. Loved it too.

I actually hear that more often than "I just hate it. Worst show ever." I've met very few of those people, but quite a few who are just like "Meh" about it. Admittedly, growing up, much like Smallville I despised it. It wasn't until I happened to buy the first season on DVD that I sat down and really enjoyed it. I did the same thing with Smallville just last year and fell in love with it as well.
