How Frequently do you watch Buffy these days?

I was gonna make a poll but I'd have to make to many options so I decided just to make a topic for discussion. I was having a conversation with one of my Buffy-watching friends the other day about how frequently fans watch Buffy now the show is finished. She said she watches it every few weeks or so since there's not much point now. I personally watch it everyday or at least every other day. What about everyone else? Still obsessed fans needing a daily dosage? Or do you go longer these days?
 
I occasionally pull out my DVDs and watch the whole thing all the way through. It usually takes anywhere from several months to a couple of weeks, depending on what's going on in my life. The last time I did this was when I was working on my thesis, so about 3 months ago. I'm working my way through The X-Files DVDs right now, but I think when I'm done with these I'll go back to Buffy again, as long as my brand spanking new teaching jobs don't keep me too busy. Maybe I'll watch them while I grade papers. 😀
 
Pretty much still every day, but of course I don't have a lot of time so sometimes I don't even watch a whole episode.
 
Lately at least around 2 a day. I usually do a whole run through take like a month break and then start through again. I think the most I've watched in a day though is 11 or so.

11?! Wow. You deserve karma for that.
Usually I´ll have a marathon once or twice each year and go through all of Buffy and Angel. But the last time I had one I ended up here and I haven´t left since. So I pretty much get my dose from this place right now. But being here makes me wanna put on a special episode now and again.

But I´m getting worried. It seems like I finally convinced my sister to start watch the show. Sounds like great news doesn´t it? It is, but she has to borrow my dvd´s. And we don´t see eachother that often. Could be christmas for all I know. But I guess it´ll be worth it.
 
I'd say every other day. anywhere from 1-3 or 4 episodes, depending on how much time i have between work and school.

I've also burned some episodes onto my ipod... so i watch some there as well.
 
Um. Last time I watched an episode was the day before Joamna left, June 18th. Before that, I hadn't seen an episode since Joamna's birthday in March. So honestly, I watch a few episodes a year, these days. Oh no actually I saw Tabula Rasa a few weeks ago! And sometimes I watch a few episodes with Joamna, but not often....
 
Well, I've been watching the entire series over the past month or so and am almost done with Season 7. My BFF and I got through 3 seasons in less than a week. But, on my own, I usually get an itch to watch a specific season of either Buffy or Angel, so I'll usually watch a season all the way through for however long it takes.

So, yeah, I still watch it pretty often!
 
Pretty much 24/7 unless I know something else is on that would be of interest to me.
Yes, that includes sleepy-bye time.
I'll wake up (for whatever reason), hear the music from episode breaks and hit the play episode button, then go back to sleep.
Often with commentary (if available) turned on.

Until Supernatural and several other shows return in the fall this will be status quo.
 
I don't watch it everyday. I'm a bit of a control freak when it comes to my watching ritual and I usually don't watch it out of order. I prefer the Buffy and Angel marathons, so I start with Buffy then move onto Angel and once I'm done I have a break of about a couple of months before I start the whole thing over again.
 
I tend to watch more nowadays because there are constant reruns on FX. There's about 3 every day, so I might casually watch one every so often. When watching the DVDs though I also have to do it in one huge chunk. Which I'll be doing again as soon as I get my Angel trade paperback.
 
Everyday. I watch all of the re-runs on FX and then I watch all my DVD's when I'm finished watching the re-runs.
 
I only got into BtVS a couple of months ago, so I don't think I'm really qualified to answer the question. Having said that, I've been watching a few episodes a week with my sister.

Problem is, she now wants to take my boxsets to uni with her in September - no chance 😀

Tell her she won't have time to watch Buffy--she'll be too busy studying and partying. :)
Actually, and I'm almost ashamed to say it, I haven't watched a single episode of "Buffy," "Angel," or "Firefly" in several weeks. It hadn't occurred to me until I saw this thread. I promise to do better in the future.

Don't feel badly, I haven't watched any in several weeks, either.
Last year, that was my first year of Buffy, I saw the entire series 3 times.
Right now I am into my second watch through this year, and I can imagine doing another run later this year.

So I don't watch every day.
But when I am watching I do anything between 1 - 12 episodes per day depending on which mood and how much free time I got.

Most days I watch at least one ep, its rare that I miss a day, if i do it's because I was here untill 2am. lol

My friend is crashing at mine because his flat was broken into and now he can't sleep unless he watches Buffy.
 
Well i usually get into the mood for Buffy when am reading the books and reading the comics , listening to the music so i end up usualy putting on a random episode or two before work x
 
nowadays I might watch Buffy once or twice a month, but thats also because I have a lot of other tv shows to catch up on since I am a dvd addict. But I see Buffy every day since my room is partially dedicated to teh show.
 
I watch it far too much, every other day usually, if not every day, and if it aint Btvs, its Angel. sad
