Thanks to videogum and @timheidecker for discovering this unholy grail of uncomfortable super fan photos that will—no doubt—be used one day by the FBI in some serious celebrity stalking and kidnapping cases.

Enjoy this vast galaxy of awkward, prom-style photos of science fiction and fantasy aficionados (comic con nerds, psychopaths) paired with their heroes (TV stars with a good sense of humor looking for a little extra cash). The supporting casts from Buffy, Battlestar Galactica, Star Trek, Firefly, Heroes and more are well represented.

Guess which one is the TV star from Firefly. (Hint: She’s human)

Buffy’s Cordelia barely tolerating her new future boyfriend.

Okay, I think Cordy has had enough.

Marvelous photo of fan and another lovely Firefly actress.

Why is some giant hooker ruining this fan’s Peter Brady photo?

You and me both, sister!

Battle Scarred.

Bruce Campbell = always cool.

MORE PHOTOS! MORE PHOTOS!

FYI, if Isis was at a one of these conventions, I’d so be in one of these photos.

What do you do when you really really really love a TV show but you just don’t have the energy to stalk the show’s stars?  How about spending a week at sea with hundreds of other like-minded loony dedicated fans on a theme cruise featuring that favorite show of yours? Sounds fantastic, right? Here’s a list of some popular “celebrity” cruises for you to enjoy. Bon Voyage!

(Disclaimer: Absolutely NO big name stars from the shows will be on board or anywhere near the ship at any time. Most likely they have no idea such a cruise exists.)
