I never watched "Buffy" because I'm not into the overdone vampire thing. But I recently saw the show featured on a website and was impressed with the many diverse creature-villains, and now plan to watch it. A few other shows I've viewed after their run was over are "Supernatural","Prison Break", and "The Office." For any who haven't seen them, I highly recommend them as binge-worthy.

The Office is eternally watchable. Parks and Rec is a really close second.

As I was not quite a teenager in the late 90s, and it was the late 90s, Buffy was verboten in our house (Vampires and magick ala wicca). No worse than Harry Potter, although that was also a no-go.
Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.

I never watched "the office" either. And now my kids are quoting it to me. I might have to check it out...

We've just started watching The Office, and I don't know if I have cringed as hard as that in a long time. It's good though.

I don't know if the office could be made today. My daughter told me of this exchange:

Michael Scott : I am a victim of a hate crime. Stanley knows what I'm talking about.

Stanley (who is black) : That's not what a hate crime is.

Michael Scott : Well, I hated it, a lot, okay.

I love the opening scene on the first episode of "The Office." Michael shows his coffee cup that reads, "World's Best Boss," and says, "I think this says it all." Then after a moment adds, "I found it at Spencer's Gifts."

My wife had watched in through 3 or 4 times.

She finally got me to watch and it's worth the time for some good cringy laughs, meme's and quotes to use lol. It's probably one of my favorite TV series.

My wife told me we should skip the Todd Packer included episodes and we did after trying to get through the first he was in.

Yeah, the show is binge-worthy, though some parts can be cringe-worthy. All in all, it's a one-of-a-kind classic, and one of the best comedy shows ever put together.

Another question for you, fenris.

I saw in the visions of the night, and behold with the clouds of the heaven, one like a man was coming, and he came up to the Ancient of Days and was brought before Him.
And He gave him dominion and glory and a kingdom, and all peoples, nations, and tongues shall serve him; his dominion is an eternal dominion, which will not be removed, and his kingdom is one which will not be destroyed.
(Daniel 7:13-14)

Who is this individual brought before the ancient of days upon the clouds? Christians of course, see this person as Jesus, who arose into the clouds at His ascension (Acts 1:9). And since He spoke of returning to His Father in heaven (John 7:33; 14:28), it follows that the scene portrayed in Daniel 7:13-14 depicts His arrival following His resurrection, whereupon He had conferred upon Him dominion and power. What is your understanding regarding the identity of this individual?

We can agree that this individual is the messiah.

Good. How about "the ancient of days"?

I was looking until thrones were set up, and the Ancient of Days sat; His raiment was as white as snow, and the hair of His head was like clean wool; His throne was sparks of fire, its wheels were a burning fire. (Daniel 7:9)

Cool. We agree that Daniel 7 depicts the messiah being transported before the throne of God and receiving power and dominion over the earth. The only thing we disagree on is the messiah being Jesus.

I mean I think there are verses that we can agree are talking about the messiah. Isaiah 11, for example. Genesis 49:10.  That's just off the top of my head.

 So it's all a lesson and not s story about God having an equal who opposes Him.

Just in case no one else has asked this, does that mean Jewish people believe that Christians think God and satan are equals?
