I don't think there is as much in common as there may seem to be. I am fully immersed in Twilight obsession right now, yet I admit that it is very weak in character development, wit, metaphor, and humor--unlike Buffy. And Buffy is not nearly as much about romance as Twilight, which I believe is the reason for all the mania. It is impossibly romantic in a way that becomes consuming :) Buffy would have to be entirely reinvented to revolve around a central love story rather than have the love story be one of many threads.
