For those people worried about the future of the show here is what the creator said on the official buffy board joss says: (Wed May 23 08:28:44 2001 4.41.196.128) Somewhat more coherent now. Just want to say again, finally, definitively, and in LIVING color that BUFFY WILL BE BACK NEXT SEASON STARRING Sarah Michelle GELLAR (of television's "Buffy the Vampire Slayer")on UPN, TUESDAYS at 8:00. How will we bring her back? With great difficulty, of course. And pain and confusion. Will it be cheezy? I don't think so. (I've loved some of the theories here on how it might be done.) The fact is, we've had most of next season planned before we ever shot this ep. Same writers you know, same actors you love, same crappy little warehouse we've been shooting in for five years... Different network. But we've never been controlled by the network -- WB was great about that, UPN has already shown they will be too. The only difference is that Marti will share exec prod credit with me, and it's about time she did. I'm in charge. Okay, that's a lie. The STORY is in charge, the story that keeps on speaking to me, that says there is much more to tell about all these characters. An ensemble this brilliant could easily carry the show even without the Slayer -- but the fact is, even though she reached some beauty closure, Buffy's story isn't over. When it is, I'll know. And we'll stop. Til then, have faith. (not faith the character -- she's making movies and stuff.) and finally joss says: (Wed May 23 08:48:30 2001 4.41.196.128) Gotta go to work (yes, still working on Buffy, no rest for the goat-smitten.) Just wanted to say thanks to all the people who keep coming on and reassuring people the show isn't over. Got to get the word out. And a bigass thanks to the fans who took out that sweet ad in the Hollywood Reporter. All the writers were talking about it (well, not ALL the writers, just Buffy and Angel writers, West Wing writers were probably talking about government and stuff, but that's cool too.) Thanks. Soon to see you. anymore update will be here soon |
