I think it's a matter of taste, but I want to ask this of my Flist since it has hit me while doing the Spike edits.
ATS vs. BTVS, which one did you prefer?
I prefer BTVS by a landslide. I don't "Feel" the characters the same way on ATS. It's a mystery to me because most of the same writers flit back and forth from show to show. Is it because BTVS is "shippier" and it's geared more to my taste?
With BTVS, I either love these characters or want to kick their asses. (sometimes at the same time) With ATS, I find the show entertaining, but I didn't become emotionally involved in the same way. I even find myself feeling the same towards Spike--I still adore the character, but I'm feeling IT with him on ATS as I was on BTVS, although he remains my favorite. (there were instances--usually when DeKnight or Joss was writing, like in DAMAGE, AHITW or DESTINY, when I got the old BTVS feeling, but for the most part---no)
I know some of my FList liked ATS better, and I wonder why some of us prefer one over the other.
buffy,
