Hmmm.. I guess I just have an aversion to (lack of understanding of?) the bad guys -- TV, books, movies. If you're supposed to not like them, I don't. Very susceptible to authorial intent.
Giles is definitely awesome. I was weirded out when he had the fling with Buffy's mom (season 1?) in a 'eeeeew parents getting it on, don't want to think about that' kind of way. It took a few years for me to not see him in avuncular mode. I definitely identified with the kids at first. :-D
Let's see. I like Buffy and Angel and Willow the most, probably. Giles is up there too. Spike, nope, that whole villain thing got in the way. Made some of the later seasons a bit weird.
Thinking on it, Willow may be my favorite character of the whole thing (BTVS & Angel). I think I identified with her quite a bit, besides, she's hot. Though I think attraction-wise, I found Buffy sexier. And Angel. Giles, too, but that later.
Hmmmm.... I don't think I just like the characters because I'm attracted to them in that way, but then, it does all go together for me, often. :-D
