Ever Force Someone To Watch?

I've never "forced" anyone to watch. But I have...insisted strongly. Usually it doesn't take much convincing. I just have to be like, "Hey, you know that tattoo on my back, the 'B'? You should probably understand why it's there," *play*

You have a Buffy tattoo? Awesome!
I tried to force my mom to watch Buffy and Angel but she just doesnt like it. The only episodes she really gets into is the Cangel episodes. But she loves Charmed. She has seen every episode with me. 🙂
 
I've had no such luck with my family members. I would watch Buffy in the living room and kinda got my sister into it, not enough to watch every episode though. And doing Buffy rewatches is so hard because the living room is the only place with a working DVD player and my mother cannot stand it when I watch Buffy. And everyone else is too busy to watch any TV shows.
 
The only person I know that likes BtVS is my ex. All my friends have terrible taste, so I haven't even attempted to show it to them since it actually has character development and good drama and isn't full of explosions, car chases, and CGI. I'm sure they wouldn't like it. -_-
 
I was the one being forced, and I TOTALLY resisted.

My close friend and I were at her house waiting for a few others to join us. They were desperately late, so she pretty much said, "We're going to watch Buffy," sat me down on her bed, and turned on "Once More With Feeling" (and I actually just watched this one in the chronological order to much better results...).

I was not a fan. It may have been because she had already been comparing me to Anya, even then, and Xander, so she kept pointing them out. Or, because she had to explain every little thing. Anya sang her bit in "I've Got A Theory/Bunnies/What Can't We Do" and I'm looking at her like, what?

We ended up stopping right before "Dawn's Lament."

To her benefit she did her best, and later, she did get me into Angel (we watched maybe half the season in one night...). But I didn't get into Buffy for about six more months, and I did it on my own.

I have thought about forcing some people meself, though.
