... but is it into them?

Meta Prompt
The answer to the meta is a television show that many people are into
This meta was motivated by an entry in a recent Pun of a Kind meta. This would be a week 1 if there weren't so many other long entries that look like they should be themers but aren't and if I hadn't gotten so punchy in my cluing. But there should still be a few "screaming themers" to keep this from being too hard. You'll probably see it right away or you won't.
