I loved the show 1st-3rd season, but I was so disenchanted with the ending of S3 (wedding, clone, amnesia, and
then NK) that I remember thinking I didn't care if the show even came back for a fourth season. When it did, I kept watching, but I didn't love the show the way I used to.
So by 2000 it had completely fallen off my radar. It was only by accident that I discovered the fandom and started reading the fanfic. And once I started reading, the above-average level of quality here made me stay. If not for the fanfic, I would probably never have
remembered the show, let alone gone out and bought the DVDs.
So I credit the fans with reviving my love for the series, and Warner Bros. can thank them for ensuring my purchase
