General Info


  • CASTING: Buffy, Willow, Xander, Oz, Giles, and Spike will all be regular characters in Season 4. Joyce will remain a recurring guest star, Anya will join the cast as a recurring guest star, and they are introducing a new character, Riley Finn.
  • Riley has been cast, and Mark Blucas will be playing him. Buffy will meet him in Psychology class. The character will be recurring, not a regular and any relationship between them will be taken slowly. Joss has no intention of keeping Buffy away from men on account of Angel leaving, but he won't rush any relationships she gets into. Buffy will move on.
  • Spike will be somewhat forced into helping the Slayer and her friends, but don't worry, he won't be all soul-having. He'll still be evil, just with different motives. James Marsters reports that Spike is blackmailed into helping Buffy, but how he is blackmailed is still unknown.
  • Official Season 4 Press Release: In its first two and a half seasons, Buffy The Vampire Slayer has left an indelible mark on our cultural psyche, and continues to grow in popularity. Now the series that always delivers the unexpected will metamorphose again as Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) and friends embark on the ultimate adventure - college.
  • The new season finds Buffy, Willow (Alyson Hannigan) and Oz (Seth Green) entering their freshman year at the University of Sunnydale. Still reeling from Angel's abrupt departure, Buffy thinks her love life is over - until she happens upon the new Mr. Right. Now living away from home for the first time, Buffy learns to juggle the pressures of college and the challenge of saving mankind with the fatherly guidance of her new mentor, Giles (Anthony S. Head). Returning to Sunnydale are Xander (Nicholas Brendon) - back from his travels - and Spike (James Marsters), the punk vampire whose bad attitude has taken a mysterious turn for the better. But all of their lives will change forever when they meet the university's Professor of Demonology.
  • Juliet Landau (Drusilla) will not be returning to Buffy. There is a chance she'll make guest spots sometime in the future, but she won't be back for a while. A movie career is keeping her busy and away from Buffy.
  • "This coming year, Buffy will be going to college, (U.C. Sunnydale). I can't give away too much but I can tell you she'll be adjusting to a new school, a new roommate, fraternities, the college workload, plus...well lets just say that any college located near the Hellmouth has got to be unusual. It's going to be a lot of fun. My first episode will air in early November, and I think that's about the time you'll see just how weird the Sunnydale campus is and why. It'll be kind of X-Filesy, with a little James Bond thrown in, but also totally Buffy."
  • While Willow and Oz seem to fit right in at Sunnydale University, Buffy has a really hard time fitting in. To top it all off, she get stuck with a less-than-ideal roommate.
  • Buffy will be crossing over to the Angel series in the 8th episode!

  • Doomed

    "Doomed" is episode 11, and is going to be one spectacular episode with a few faces we haven't seen in a while. This episode airs January 18, 2000. I'll be adding more spoilage to this episode as time goes by. It is supposedly written by David Fury, Jane Espensen, and Marti Noxon.

    There will be an earthquake, and a blackout.

    The gang returns to Sunnydale High and find a few old memories...and remains.

    Spike tries to kill himself, but is interrupted by Willow and Xander.

    To reassure any of you who think Buffy and Riley might rush into something, but the two still aren't really a couple in this episode. Buffy still has her doubts, even though the two of them do know about eachother's secret lives and Riley is encouraging her to give it all a chance.

    Buffy and Riley have a fairly major fight, where they disagree about slaying. Buffy has no choice but to do what she does, and Riley does.

    Spike doesn't find out that he can hurt non-living things until this episode.

    Guess what opens in this episode, again?! That's right, the Hellmouth.

    One of the characters that does return in this episode, is Percy. (Remember the basketball star that Willow tutored in high school?) He's not going to hook up with Willow. While trying to convince another girl he's not interested in Willow, he mentions several negative things about her. Willow, unfortunately hears it all.

    While I posted that the trophy that Catherine Madison is trapped in, appears in this episode, it is no longer true. That part of the scene had to be cut for episode cost and length reasons.

    WALK DOWN MEMORY LANE - While Buffy and Riley grapple to come to terms with what they now know about each other, the reopening of the Sunnydale Hellmouth sends Buffy and the gang back to high school to prevent impending apocalypse. Meanwhile, Spike has lost all will to live without the ability to kill, but he grows heartened by the approaching end of the world.

    A New Man

    This is episode 12, and is written by Jane Espenson, and directed by Michael Gershman. The episode airs on January 25, 2000.

    Ethan is in this episode.

    Feeling unneeded by Buffy and the rest of the gang, Giles turns to the least likely person, his old friend Ethan.

    Giles is transformed into a demon after going out and drinking. Buffy's then hunts him down, not knowing it's Giles.

    ANOTHER BUFFY BIRTHDAY DEBACLE- Buffy and Riley explore the extent of each other's powers as they become more romantically entwined. Feeling left out these day, Giles turns to his old buddy Ethan Rayne (guest star Robin Sachs) for camaraderie, but Giles must rely on an unlikely source when he is transformed into a demon and mistakenly hunted down by an unknowing Buffy.
