I've watched all of Joss's shows regularly, from the beginning, except for, believe it or not, Firefly. I watched the first episode they ever aired, The Train Job, which was actually the second episode filmed. The two hour pilot ep was actually the LAST episode they showed. If they had started from the beginning, liked they should have, I probably would have been hooked right away. Instead, I bought the DVDs after some friends raved about them, and of course, watching everything in the right order, I fell completely in love.

I have always called Joss my TV God, so I guess we have that in common, too. Sometimes I watch a show like Smallville, which has been and will probably always be my number one fandom, and I think, oh my, what Joss could do with this show. I think that about a lot of shows, actually. He writes characters, if you know what I mean. Male or female, it doesn't matter. His creations are always so vivid and real to me. I think that might have been the problem with Dollhouse, his last show. When the premise is that your characters change every episode, it's hard to develop that kind of bond with them.

I have to admit, Buffy/Angel was my OTP for Buffy, and believe it or not, I genuinely liked Angel/Cordelia on Angel. Those were my two true pairs, but other pairings always stood out to me, too. You're right, every pair had a sense of magic about them. Just another Joss touch, I guess.
