I watched, and still do, the original Star Trek episodes over and over again. Granted, by todays standards, sometimes the episodes seem a little silly. But the story lines were usually 'good against evil', weren't they? Sometimes the humans were good, sometimes the aliens were.
My granddaughter, now in her early 20's, was fanatical about Buffy when it came on. A large group of her female friends were too. It had nothing to do with Geller, it was the stories. I personally didn't care for the series, I think it was a generational thing.
Seeing as one show was about magic, and one about space travel, how can the two possibly be compared?
Both had their fanatical followers....in their time.
Using either in a college class setting to me would be just ......sad. Is this what higher education has sunk to? (Just my opinion..)
