   the fans I think is just wonderful. I adore them both.   
      
   AX: When you started doing conventions, did you have an idea of, “And lo,   
   twenty years later, there will still be these BUFFY conventions, several   
   times a year …”?   
      
   TOY: No idea, no. It’s kind of shocking. I think most shows, once they go   
   off the air, they have a pretty short shelf life. So the fact that it   
   continued, and it continued … I think what’s amazing about the show is that   
   whoever was into it as a child continues to this day to be into it, but then   
   also shares it with their children, or their spouses, or their family, so   
   it’s   
   not unusual at a convention for me to be sitting at a table and for three,   
   sometimes four generations of people to be standing there from one family,   
   going, “We love your work, you’re so creepy!” [laughs] I think what’s   
   happening is that new fans are constantly being created, because the old   
   fans are so mesmerized by the show, still. And so they should, because it   
   really is an incredible show.
