Some of them are on here because I see a not-cool ratio of love-to-hate in the fandom (e.g. - Buttercup, Dawnie, Elizabeth), and some are here not because fandom dislikes them, but because fandom -- or in a few cases, the shows writers -- tend to ignore them (e.g. - Joy, Julia, Lily, Vivian).
For the most part, they don't get fanfic written about them or fanart made for them; they don't have icons or vids or wallpapers or fanmixes or favorable meta, etc.
They are too busy giving Claudia ALL the stories. :P
There seeems to be a bit of a schism in the Buffy fandom between the old guard & the new guard -- people who watched the series in the original run, and then people who watched reruns as younger girls -- and the old guard dislikes Dawn & everything she represents, but the new guard adores her.
Tessa - I love seeing her here. I loved how Mac was with her, and how tough she was. Having him for a lover could not have been easy and yet she handled everything that was tossed at her with grace. I've always felt she should have more credit, and her death though expected was kinda shitty imo.
LOL, manwhore Mac is pretty much my least favorite character in the show. XD It's a miracle the classy Tessa managed to stay with him for so long. My favorite part of Tessa was how her art required a welder & a face mask. :D
Yeah. Dying is what female fantasy characters do best when there's a male lead. Also, bringing the actress back for that evil-twin plotlet was really terrible.
For the most part I don't like Mac either. Everything is too black and white with him, and the manwhore thing. There were times I liked him but I watched for the others in the shows more than I watched for him.

There really needs to be an online gallery of WH13 caps... I don't like downloading all the files just to get Leena! :(
