   It's been almost a quarter of a century since the series started.  I suspect   
   they won't worry too much about continuity by assuming that the audience will   
   be, for the most part, new to the show.   
      
   Making a show to pander to the (aging) current btvs fans doesn't seem to be   
   a particulary profitable move.
