Isn't that pathetic? I actually have came home from work and taken a nap at 6 pm or so just to make it through the night.

Isn't the Buffy show in syndication now? Maybe I could catch it on television sometime.

Buffy was being shown on a couple cable channels but right now I don't think it's on...even when it was, they were showing one episode a week unlike TNT (I think) that showed Angel and Charmed episodes (in order) five days a week. When they do that, it's easy to catch up if you have the time slot free. Highlander was another good show that was shown 5x a week on USA (I think) back a few years. I suspect Buffy will resurface somewhere, as will Angel and Firefly as they continue to hold conventions and the fan base remains fairly strong. In Europe, I'm pretty sure it remains on...maybe Brock or one of the other Euro posters can confirm that.
In a related topic, Snakes on a Plane has done poorly at the box office, I was hoping to see a better result. As with Serenity, the internet buzz simply hasn't translated into broad interest. This will discourage studios from funding such projects I'm afraid and will in turn discourage the fan bases. I didn't think "Snakes" was anything special myself but I was hopeful for it due to Jackson's star-power and what appeared to be a much better ad campaign than afforded Serenity...oh well, looks like it will do about the same at the box.
