P.S. I put that Joss song on my page too!

I LOVE Veronica Mars right now.
VM will probably be cancelled after this year, they didn't order an entire season of episodes as is...shame cause it is far and away the best show on TV right now imo! Ms Bell and her "father" along with Logan are fantastic characters!
Forever Knight...well, it was on TV starting in 92 I think, so it predates Buffy and Angel. It's a story about Nick Knight, a homicide detective in Toronto and most plots have human bad guys like a typical cop show. Knight is however an 800 year old vampire trying to become human and atone for his past. His "father" is Lacroix, a general of Pompeii who was "brought across" about 24AD by his daughter Dalia. Nick has a "sister" named Janette who runs a local nightclub, she is slightly older than Nick (perhaps 900+). It is a fantastic mythology...the characters (Janette, Lacroix and Nick along with Nat...Nick's human girlfriend and several others) are wonderful and their relationships very complex. They cover a lot of issues, some very dark! In this world, vampires can fly and have some hypnotic powers, they reflect in mirrors...otherwise close to Angel/Buffy. There are good and bad vampires, very few episodes involve killing bad ones. I love Janette...truly a wonderful character as is Lacroix!
