I hope Angel can keep it's votes up, in particular. It would be very awesome to have the whole Jossverse in the top ten.

I'll start voting for those then. Can anyone tell me what they're like, other then the obvious- I know they're good, having been created by Joss

Rallem, if you don't mind too much, I'm going to start nominating Dark Shadows for a while, instead of Red Dwarf, untill they get in the top 40, just to help shiny people out

Now, just lookit all you shiny Browncoats! I go to lie down a while, while the missus spells me at the wheel of the VUMPmobile, and, I get back up and see all you wonderful folks standin' up to help out with the Dark Shadows Noms!

StillFlyin, RiverFlan, and, especially, Rallem, who has paused his own campaign to get a Hologram, a Vindaloo-eatin' scoundrel, an evolved mutant cat, a sex-shanging computer, and, a mechanoid with a head "like a novelty con-dom" their moment of glory, I thank you, and, everybody else who has been helpin'. That means you, WackyNephew, in particular!

Xie-xie to all of you! I love my shiny Browncoat brothers and sisters!

You don't know Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, or, the spinoff, Angel?

Ooh, are you in for some Jossified goodness, RiverFlan!

Buffy was based on a movie, which parodied the usual vampire movie tropes. In this case, the "Chosen One' was a Valley-Girl, Buffy, who didn't quite take the whole thing seriously. Great movie, surprising casting, too!

Then, it was made into a great TV show, with a lot more depth and character development. It has a lot of the great characterizations, plot twists, and dialog for which Joss is so famous. It's not Firefly, but, you ought to enjoy it, on its own merits.

Angel was a spinoff, as mentioned, a little darker, mebbe, but, still, a lot of fun! The protagonist is a centuries old male hottie vamp named Angelus; he and Buffy have... Relationship issues. But, anyway, I hope that gives you something to work from!

Whedonverse 411 VUMP!

A tip from someone who only watched them recently and had someone make this same mistake. By the time you make it to the end of the two shows it doesn't seem like remotely a spoiler to describe Angel in those terms. But for much of the first season of Buffy, Angel is just a mysterious stranger. When introducing the shows to people who don't like spoilers, it's better to leave out the V-word (and the "with-a-S" word too). There's at least one scene in S1 which loses a lot of it's impact if you know that.

(I can't imagine the "relationship issues" bit counts as a spoiler, though. You can see THAT bit coming from the first moment he shows up)
