Not expecting any huge surprises here, but what are your faves (pick up to three).

I've only really seen three of them properly... does that count for voting purposes?

I am having a hard time picking a third from all my loves, so took two for now and will perhaps choose the third one later. Or change the poll so I can pick more.

I had the same problem, but I finally decided on Dollhouse. But probably only because I've ODed on Buffy-Angel due to my kids' fanaticism.

Which reminds me, anyone who has not seen Dr. Horrible's Sing-along Blog should find a way to do so immediately. It is only 45 minutes long and available on Netflix. And of course on YouTube, not sure how authorized that is or how great the quality, looks ok. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TupDHGk2VY0&list=PL7F13A7231CA89C6C

Ah yes, I have to rewatch that with DG, he never saw it.
I feel I would have to rewatch Dollhouse and Cabin in the Woods as I've only seen them once, before I could give a proper answer to the poll. At the moment I'm leaning towards Buffy, Firefly and Avengers. Although some parts of Angel are brilliant, especially when Cordelia is still at her best, I find it overall less humourous.

Apart from Buffy we don't get any of those in the UK.

I have seen Buffy, Angel and Dollhouse available on the TV I have available at various points. None of them recently, however.

I am pretty sure all the movies have also come out there...

I have bought five copies and still have two of them, the others given away.

But I don't remember Dollhouse, unless it was on Sky or something. I don't recall the movies - were they called something different?

No, just Serenity, Avengers Assemble (UK title), Dr. Horrible's Sing-along Blog (web series) and Cabin in the Woods.

Dollhouse was vey short-lived. (2 seasons I think) I'm not even sure that it made it to syndication.

No, it didn't, even Whedon himself seemed surprised it was given a second season, and he pretty much knew there was no way a show like that was going to be given a third, so he made the most of it. It starts off like it is going to be a case-of-the-week show, but from episode 6 on was really a great arc instead.

Too bad, really. I loved Firefly and Dollhouse, and they had sinfully short runs!

Yeah. Meanwhile Idols and Survivors are going strong. Hooray.

I'm guessing the, "I've not seen ANY of them," response goes into "Other".

The bottom two in the list (above "other," of course) I've not even heard of before today.

I think I could get into Firefly and Serenity, though, if I had the time.

You haven't heard of last year's film The Avengers?!? Doctor Horrible was an internet series Whedon made with his brothers and friends during the writer's strike.

Get Shake, a chair, a roll of gaffer tape, DVD player, TV set and the Buffy box set!

Firefly is not only shorter, but also easier to get in to. You really should start Buffy from the beginning, and season 1 is... a little inconsistent.

Yes. We will kidnap him and force him to watch Firefly first. Then maybe something from the buffy-verse. With some dollhouse or sing-along blog thrown in!

Wolfram & Hart is based on Fox, I'm sure.
