OK, I have a question. It is very likely I will have early access to parts of many of the scripts this season, just as I have for episode 1. As this information comes from a script it is not a "rumor". Where does that information go when I get it?[This message has been edited by WillTara (edited July 17, 2001).]

I'm going to post the SciFi Wire article, which was what got me interested in a separate thread in the first place. (Thanks for creating one, Len! )Here's mollyig's post from this morning: *****
http://www.scifi.com/scifiwire/art-main.html?2001-07/16/11.00.tv Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, told SCI FI Wire that he will revive the titular character--who died at the end of last season--in the show's two-hour premiere on UPN Oct. 9. "When you bring somebody back to life, ... you have a lot of disbelief," Whedon said at UPN's fall preview meeting in Pasadena, Calif. "You have to always make the characters feel the way the audience does. You have to make it difficult. You have to earn it. You have to just get in there and make it very visceral. ... It's not going to be simple. It's not going to be breezy. It's not going to be a cheat. We did this knowing that we were going to have to bring her back, and ... we're going to have to do it legitimately and with integrity." Whedon added that the show won't rely on a Dallas-like gimmick to bring Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) back to life. "No," Whedon said. "Dallas was lame." The premiere will contain a brief recap of the show for viewers new to the series since its move from The WB. Whedon added that the show will likely not have any crossovers with its sister series, Angel, which remains on The WB. "We had a couple of notions that were a little embryonic, but it was never crucial," Whedon said. "And I very much wanted the shows to stand on their own." Among other changes in the upcoming season: Willow (Alyson Hannigan) will assume more of a leadership role in the Scooby Gang, as well as returning more to her computer-geek roots; Willow and Tara's (Amber Benson) relationship may undergo changes; and Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) will appear only as a recurring character. Anya (Emma Caulfield) will take over the Magic Shop in the wake of Giles' return to England, and there will be no new Slayer called as a result of Buffy's death--the line now goes through Faith, who was called the last time Buffy died, Whedon said. (In response to a question about spoilers on the Ain't It Cool News Web site, Whedon said some were accurate and others were not, but didn't detail which were which). Whedon also said he was aware of The WB's decision to shut down the official Buffy.com Web site and its fan message board, The Bronze. "I haven't been in town, so I said to them early on, 'Get that thing ready.' ... So I'm hoping that it will be soon," Whedon said in an interview. "But I don't have any information on how that is working. But it's a big priority. My hope is now, or, worst case scenario, it must be up before the season starts." Adam Ware, chief operating officer of UPN, told SCI FI Wire that the network is working with Buffy the Vampire Slayer production studio Fox to revive the site and was talking with the same
company that created the original site. ***** This sounds interesting to me. It's easy to get paranoid and assume "Willow's and Tara's relationship may undergo changes" is a bad sign, but I don't think that's the case. If Willow's assuming more of a leadership role and is going back to her computer-geek roots, maybe that means Tara will step up and take the lead when it comes to witchcraft. That would definitely be a "change" that could be of the good. ------------------

Well, we haven't seen Tara performing much spells lately have we? But I still don't think Willow will give up on witchcraft, she just needs to learn to controll herself, and Tara will be the one to help.Anyway, it will be interesting watching Willow create gadgets, like "M", or was it "Q" ?

Just read this over at the BBC web site ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/buffy/news/01070202.shtml )
quote:
WOODEN ACTING Buffy Executive Producer Marti Noxon is currently developing ideas for the show’s sixth season. She joked about a possible follow-up to Joss Whedon’s musical episode of the show. "There's still an all- puppet Buffy," she tells FSF Online. "I want to do Thunderbuffy. I'm dying to do an episode where you just turn it on, and for no explained reason, they're all just puppets." Four scripts for season six have already been developed, with two more in the planning stages. Episode six will be the musical show. "Almost all the cast sings," Noxon reveals. "Michelle [Trachtenberg] is more of a dancer, so she wanted to dance. Joss himself is writing the music. Like a real musical, it's all going to be tailored to the show. He's so multitalented."
Thunderbuffy, now that would be a cool idea... I think this could really work. They could even start merchandising BtVS puppets, imagine what it would be like to own a set of Willow/Tara puppets...

He's writting the music? Like in composing? I thought he was only going to write the lyrics like he did for several Disney's animated films. Is he going to compose as well? That would be his first.[This message has been edited by WillTara (edited July 17, 2001).] IP: Logged |

After having seen all of GaBs_HoPe's vids, I wanna see Willow sing "Never be the Same Again" or "I'll Stand By You", or Tara sing "Crazy For You" (that would be an added bonus - to have a Madonna song on Buffy *drool*) I know it won't happen, but a girl can dream, no?I almost choked at the Thunderbuffy thing.

Go to Little Willow's Essence of Amber site to download Amber performing "Toucha-Toucha-Touch Me" from Rocky Horror Picture Show. She's a great singer!! (plus, true to character, she's in her undies.) I'll bet that Aly's a good singer, too. She has such a wonderful voice. IP: Logged |

Just a question: Was there any episode Joss Whendon directed that Amber Benson wasn't used more than most of the regulars?Answer: No! (it's easy: Joss loves Amber, and knows she's a great actress) Conclusion: Amber will probably be the one who'll sing the most in the "All-singing ep" (probably not just the "LOVE SONG" HOORAY!

You just can't slay Buffy
Buffy finds new life with a new network for fall TV season
By BILL BRIOUX
Toronto Sun
PASADENA, Calif. -- Buffy The Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon says fans won't feel cheated when Buffy springs back to life on new network UPN next season. "Dallas was lame," he said, referring to TV's biggest death stretch, the shower scene that wrote off Bobby Ewing's season-long death as a dream. "That was a really silly solution," said Whedon. Besides, Buffy star Sarah Michelle Gellar added, "I have a no-shower contract." Whedon, Gellar and the entire Buffy cast, including Nicholas Brendon (Xander), Michelle Trachtengerg (Dawn) and Alyson Hannigan (Willow), attended a packed UPN press conference yesterday morning. As fans know, the vampire-slaying heroine was killed off in the WB season finale, with her name even appearing on a tombstone. While there will be no Dallas-style cheat, UPN is gearing up for a Dallas-like buildup to next fall's Buffy season premiere. The series will make a two-hour return Oct. 9 on UPN. (New episodes will also continue to air on VR in the Toronto area.) "Buffy has pulled up stakes" and "found a new place to slay," blared a UPN promo clip screened for critics. UPN president Dean Valentine compared interest in the series' return to the "Who Shot J.R." frenzy surrounding Dallas in the early '80s. He said the network will spend whatever it takes to promote the move to UPN. They've already spent plenty to obtain the series. Industry reports place the cost of obtaining rights to the series at anywhere from US$50 million to $160 million. Asked if that wasn't a lot of money to spend "on a dead woman," Valentine said he was just glad Buffy's so-called demise was the last WB episode. What does the higher licence fee mean for the series? Better craft services and massages on the set, suggested Whedon, who says the budget remains the same, although "we will have more leeway than if we had stayed at WB and had to use hand puppets." When Gellar was asked if she was getting a raise, Whedon quickly stepped in and shut down the money talk. The cast is apparently under contract for two more seasons. "These guys have all sold their souls to me," Whedon joked. The producer did confirm that Anthony Stewart Head, who plays "watcher" Rupert Giles, will be a recurring character only next season. Head apparently wanted to spend more time with his family in England and will be on just six episodes next year. With the central characters starting to move beyond their college years, Whedon feels the need for a grown-up on the show was diminished anyway. "Buffy doesn't need anyone to tell her what to do now," he said. Whedon also said that Buffy's "death" does not bring another slayer onto the show. He added that bringing her back to life will be complicated and difficult. "You have to do it with integrity," he said. Whedon also said he was cool with the recent Emmy snub (the series got no nominations). "With a name like Buffy The Vampire Slayer it's not like we're Emmy-bait," he said. The fact that the series mixes comedy with drama and horror also makes it a puzzle for many Emmy voters, he guessed. Gellar pointed to the incredibly strong fan base for the series via the Internet as recognition enough. While The WB recently shut down the buffy.com Web site, UPN says they're working to clear legal hurdles to re-open the site at the same address. Whedon says he has no plans for now to cross over any Buffy character with his other show, Angel, which is stil on The WB. "Angel doesn't need them -- they have a strong ensemble of their own," he said.

You can directly download the RH video in which Amber sings here as well. Thanks to Froggy and Puff. It is a 5.45MB zip file. You need Real Player to watch it. The link is just for the download. You just have to see and hear it, read Fell's post as to the why.
Thanks for posting the article Kalita. I like the part you've made bold. More leeway. Yeah! Oh, I have a one track mind.

'Buffy' Nervous, Excited About Move
PASADENA, Calif. (AP) - Sarah Michelle Gellar says she's ``nervous'' and ``excited'' about her series, ``Buffy the Vampire Slayer,'' moving from the WB to UPN this fall.``For five years we had a home. ... So the thought of making the move was scary,'' the 24-year-old actress said Monday. ``But I think (UPN) has given us a new excitement about the show.'' Gellar and other cast members vowed to stay with ``Buffy'' as long as it remains fresh and healthy. Co-star Alyson Hannigan, who plays Buffy's mystical friend Willow, joked, ``When we're 80 we could still be slaying vampires.'' ``Buffy'' will debut on UPN with a two-hour special Oct. 9. In November, the cast will perform a musical episode of the show. UPN had aggressively pursued the series, which had been one of the WB's top-rated series, and reportedly has ordered 44 episodes for about $102 million. The fantasy drama spawned the spin-off series ``Angel,'' which will remain on the WB. Speaking to the Television Critics Association, Gellar and series creator Joss Whedon agreed the move was necessary because the WB was not willing to continue providing the budget it needed to remain strong. ``We have more money (at UPN) than we would have at the WB, where we'd have no money and would have to use hand puppets,'' Whedon joked. ``UPN basically stepped in and said, `Make the show the way you've been making it.''' Adam Ware, UPN's chief operating officer, said the struggling network hopes to use ``Buffy'' to draw new viewers and sponsors. He credited ``Buffy'' and ``Roswell,'' another sci-fi teen drama that UPN bought after it was dropped by the WB, for attracting advertisers such as The Gap and Maybelline. The cast acknowledged that resurrecting the show won't be easy, partly because Buffy died in the season finale after hurling herself into an abyss to trap an evil force. Asked what changes she'd like to see in her character, Gellar replied: ``Alive.'' *transplanted by WillTara

See now, I'd love that. All these pensioners hobbling round, with Willow and Tara as two aged lesbians....like the couple in 'If These Walls Could Talk 2'. Or not. ------------------

Heh . . . that reminds me of the comment Amber made in her interview at Watchers' Web, saying that they'd all be in wheelchairs and the show would get renamed "Buffy the Vampire Kicker." Which gives me hilarious mental images of Buffy zipping around in an electric chair, bapping vampires with a wooden cane-stake.

Well, we haven't seen Tara performing much spells lately have we? But I still don't think Willow will give up on witchcraft, she just needs to learn to controll herself, and Tara will be the one to help.Anyway, it will be interesting watching Willow create gadgets, like "M", or was it "Q" ?
EDIT: Hey, maybe we'll get kick ass Tara! When did we last get kick ass Tara?

WOODEN ACTING Buffy Executive Producer Marti Noxon is currently developing ideas for the show’s sixth season. She joked about a possible follow-up to Joss Whedon’s musical episode of the show.
"There's still an all- puppet Buffy," she tells FSF Online. "I want to do Thunderbuffy. I'm dying to do an episode where you just turn it on, and for no explained reason, they're all just puppets."
Four scripts for season six have already been developed, with two more in the planning stages. Episode six will be the musical show.
"Almost all the cast sings," Noxon reveals. "Michelle [Trachtenberg] is more of a dancer, so she wanted to dance. Joss himself is writing the music. Like a real musical, it's all going to be tailored to the show. He's so multitalented."
Thunderbuffy, now that would be a cool idea... I think this could really work. They could even start merchandising BtVS puppets, imagine what it would be like to own a set of Willow/Tara puppets...

He's writting the music? Like in composing? I thought he was only going to write the lyrics like he did for several Disney's animated films. Is he going to compose as well? That would be his first.[This message has been edited by WillTara (edited July 17, 2001).]

Just a question: Was there any episode Joss Whendon directed that Amber Benson wasn't used more than most of the regulars?Answer: No! (it's easy: Joss loves Amber, and knows she's a great actress) Conclusion: Amber will probably be the one who'll sing the most in the "All-singing ep" (probably not just the "LOVE SONG" HOORAY!

You just can't slay Buffy
Buffy finds new life with a new network for fall TV season
By BILL BRIOUX
Toronto Sun
PASADENA, Calif. -- Buffy The Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon says fans won't feel cheated when Buffy springs back to life on new network UPN next season. "Dallas was lame," he said, referring to TV's biggest death stretch, the shower scene that wrote off Bobby Ewing's season-long death as a dream. "That was a really silly solution," said Whedon. Besides, Buffy star Sarah Michelle Gellar added, "I have a no-shower contract." Whedon, Gellar and the entire Buffy cast, including Nicholas Brendon (Xander), Michelle Trachtengerg (Dawn) and Alyson Hannigan (Willow), attended a packed UPN press conference yesterday morning. As fans know, the vampire-slaying heroine was killed off in the WB season finale, with her name even appearing on a tombstone. While there will be no Dallas-style cheat, UPN is gearing up for a Dallas-like buildup to next fall's Buffy season premiere. The series will make a two-hour return Oct. 9 on UPN. (New episodes will also continue to air on VR in the Toronto area.) "Buffy has pulled up stakes" and "found a new place to slay," blared a UPN promo clip screened for critics. UPN president Dean Valentine compared interest in the series' return to the "Who Shot J.R." frenzy surrounding Dallas in the early '80s. He said the network will spend whatever it takes to promote the move to UPN. They've already spent plenty to obtain the series. Industry reports place the cost of obtaining rights to the series at anywhere from US$50 million to $160 million. Asked if that wasn't a lot of money to spend "on a dead woman," Valentine said he was just glad Buffy's so-called demise was the last WB episode. What does the higher licence fee mean for the series? Better craft services and massages on the set, suggested Whedon, who says the budget remains the same, although "we will have more leeway than if we had stayed at WB and had to use hand puppets." When Gellar was asked if she was getting a raise, Whedon quickly stepped in and shut down the money talk. The cast is apparently under contract for two more seasons. "These guys have all sold their souls to me," Whedon joked. The producer did confirm that Anthony Stewart Head, who plays "watcher" Rupert Giles, will be a recurring character only next season. Head apparently wanted to spend more time with his family in England and will be on just six episodes next year. With the central characters starting to move beyond their college years, Whedon feels the need for a grown-up on the show was diminished anyway. "Buffy doesn't need anyone to tell her what to do now," he said. Whedon also said that Buffy's "death" does not bring another slayer onto the show. He added that bringing her back to life will be complicated and difficult. "You have to do it with integrity," he said. Whedon also said he was cool with the recent Emmy snub (the series got no nominations). "With a name like Buffy The Vampire Slayer it's not like we're Emmy-bait," he said. The fact that the series mixes comedy with drama and horror also makes it a puzzle for many Emmy voters, he guessed. Gellar pointed to the incredibly strong fan base for the series via the Internet as recognition enough. While The WB recently shut down the buffy.com Web site, UPN says they're working to clear legal hurdles to re-open the site at the same address. Whedon says he has no plans for now to cross over any Buffy character with his other show, Angel, which is stil on The WB. "Angel doesn't need them -- they have a strong ensemble of their own," he said.

'Buffy' Nervous, Excited About Move
PASADENA, Calif. (AP) - Sarah Michelle Gellar says she's ``nervous'' and ``excited'' about her series, ``Buffy the Vampire Slayer,'' moving from the WB to UPN this fall.``For five years we had a home. ... So the thought of making the move was scary,'' the 24-year-old actress said Monday. ``But I think (UPN) has given us a new excitement about the show.'' Gellar and other cast members vowed to stay with ``Buffy'' as long as it remains fresh and healthy. Co-star Alyson Hannigan, who plays Buffy's mystical friend Willow, joked, ``When we're 80 we could still be slaying vampires.'' ``Buffy'' will debut on UPN with a two-hour special Oct. 9. In November, the cast will perform a musical episode of the show. UPN had aggressively pursued the series, which had been one of the WB's top-rated series, and reportedly has ordered 44 episodes for about $102 million. The fantasy drama spawned the spin-off series ``Angel,'' which will remain on the WB. Speaking to the Television Critics Association, Gellar and series creator Joss Whedon agreed the move was necessary because the WB was not willing to continue providing the budget it needed to remain strong. ``We have more money (at UPN) than we would have at the WB, where we'd have no money and would have to use hand puppets,'' Whedon joked. ``UPN basically stepped in and said, `Make the show the way you've been making it.''' Adam Ware, UPN's chief operating officer, said the struggling network hopes to use ``Buffy'' to draw new viewers and sponsors. He credited ``Buffy'' and ``Roswell,'' another sci-fi teen drama that UPN bought after it was dropped by the WB, for attracting advertisers such as The Gap and Maybelline. The cast acknowledged that resurrecting the show won't be easy, partly because Buffy died in the season finale after hurling herself into an abyss to trap an evil force. Asked what changes she'd like to see in her character, Gellar replied: ``Alive.'' *transplanted by WillTara

See now, I'd love that. All these pensioners hobbling round, with Willow and Tara as two aged lesbians....like the couple in 'If These Walls Could Talk 2'. Or not. ------------------

Musical episode...if Joss is writing the music himself doesn't that mean hope for any prevoiusly know songs are a bit of wishful thinking? but if his writing for his music is as good as his scripts it going to be in very good hands . quote:

Didn't her write the music for Giles' song in Restless? I thought that was great. I wanted it to go on longer. Every time I watch it, that song gets stuck in my head for days. And which Disney songs did her write? I was unaware that he did this. quote:

Wow, only six? That's barely even recurring. That's almost like guest starring. That sucks, but I guess it's what's best for the show(s). IP: Logged |

Heh . . . that reminds me of the comment Amber made in her interview at Watchers' Web, saying that they'd all be in wheelchairs and the show would get renamed "Buffy the Vampire Kicker." Which gives me hilarious mental images of Buffy zipping around in an electric chair, bapping vampires with a wooden cane-stake.

'Buffy' Nervous, Excited About Move
PASADENA, Calif. (AP) - Sarah Michelle Gellar says she's ``nervous'' and ``excited'' about her series, ``Buffy the Vampire Slayer,'' moving from the WB to UPN this fall.``For five years we had a home. ... So the thought of making the move was scary,'' the 24-year-old actress said Monday. ``But I think (UPN) has given us a new excitement about the show.'' Gellar and other cast members vowed to stay with ``Buffy'' as long as it remains fresh and healthy. Co-star Alyson Hannigan, who plays Buffy's mystical friend Willow, joked, ``When we're 80 we could still be slaying vampires.'' ``Buffy'' will debut on UPN with a two-hour special Oct. 9. In November, the cast will perform a musical episode of the show. UPN had aggressively pursued the series, which had been one of the WB's top-rated series, and reportedly has ordered 44 episodes for about $102 million. The fantasy drama spawned the spin-off series ``Angel,'' which will remain on the WB. Speaking to the Television Critics Association, Gellar and series creator Joss Whedon agreed the move was necessary because the WB was not willing to continue providing the budget it needed to remain strong. ``We have more money (at UPN) than we would have at the WB, where we'd have no money and would have to use hand puppets,'' Whedon joked. ``UPN basically stepped in and said, `Make the show the way you've been making it.''' Adam Ware, UPN's chief operating officer, said the struggling network hopes to use ``Buffy'' to draw new viewers and sponsors. He credited ``Buffy'' and ``Roswell,'' another sci-fi teen drama that UPN bought after it was dropped by the WB, for attracting advertisers such as The Gap and Maybelline. The cast acknowledged that resurrecting the show won't be easy, partly because Buffy died in the season finale after hurling herself into an abyss to trap an evil force. Asked what changes she'd like to see in her character, Gellar replied: ``Alive.'' *transplanted by WillTara

See now, I'd love that. All these pensioners hobbling round, with Willow and Tara as two aged lesbians....like the couple in 'If These Walls Could Talk 2'. Or not. ------------------

Wow, only six? That's barely even recurring. That's almost like guest starring. That sucks, but I guess it's what's best for the show(s). IP: Logged |

Heh . . . that reminds me of the comment Amber made in her interview at Watchers' Web, saying that they'd all be in wheelchairs and the show would get renamed "Buffy the Vampire Kicker." Which gives me hilarious mental images of Buffy zipping around in an electric chair, bapping vampires with a wooden cane-stake.

Go to Little Willow's Essence of Amber site to download Amber performing "Toucha-Toucha-Touch Me" from Rocky Horror Picture Show. She's a great singer!! (plus, true to character, she's in her undies.)
I'll bet that Aly's a good singer, too. She has such a wonderful voice.

Just a question: Was there any episode Joss Whendon directed that Amber Benson wasn't used more than most of the regulars?Answer: No! (it's easy: Joss loves Amber, and knows she's a great actress)
Conclusion: Amber will probably be the one who'll sing the most in the "All-singing ep" (probably not just the "LOVE SONG"
HOORAY! (I'm not certain, we'll have to wait and see, but I just hope I'm right!)

You just can't slay Buffy
Buffy finds new life with a new network for fall TV season
By BILL BRIOUX
Toronto Sun
PASADENA, Calif. -- Buffy The Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon says fans won't feel cheated when Buffy springs back to life on new network UPN next season. "Dallas was lame," he said, referring to TV's biggest death stretch, the shower scene that wrote off Bobby Ewing's season-long death as a dream. "That was a really silly solution," said Whedon.
Besides, Buffy star Sarah Michelle Gellar added, "I have a no-shower contract."
Whedon, Gellar and the entire Buffy cast, including Nicholas Brendon (Xander), Michelle Trachtengerg (Dawn) and Alyson Hannigan (Willow), attended a packed UPN press conference yesterday morning. As fans know, the vampire-slaying heroine was killed off in the WB season finale, with her name even appearing on a tombstone.
While there will be no Dallas-style cheat, UPN is gearing up for a Dallas-like buildup to next fall's Buffy season premiere. The series will make a two-hour return Oct. 9 on UPN. (New episodes will also continue to air on VR in the Toronto area.)
"Buffy has pulled up stakes" and "found a new place to slay," blared a UPN promo clip screened for critics.
UPN president Dean Valentine compared interest in the series' return to the "Who Shot J.R." frenzy surrounding Dallas in the early '80s. He said the network will spend whatever it takes to promote the move to UPN.
They've already spent plenty to obtain the series. Industry reports place the cost of obtaining rights to the series at anywhere from US$50 million to $160 million.
Asked if that wasn't a lot of money to spend "on a dead woman," Valentine said he was just glad Buffy's so-called demise was the last WB episode.
What does the higher licence fee mean for the series? Better craft services and massages on the set, suggested Whedon, who says the budget remains the same, although "we will have more leeway than if we had stayed at WB and had to use hand puppets."
When Gellar was asked if she was getting a raise, Whedon quickly stepped in and shut down the money talk. The cast is apparently under contract for two more seasons. "These guys have all sold their souls to me," Whedon joked.
The producer did confirm that Anthony Stewart Head, who plays "watcher" Rupert Giles, will be a recurring character only next season. Head apparently wanted to spend more time with his family in England and will be on just six episodes next year.
With the central characters starting to move beyond their college years, Whedon feels the need for a grown-up on the show was diminished anyway. "Buffy doesn't need anyone to tell her what to do now," he said.
Whedon also said that Buffy's "death" does not bring another slayer onto the show. He added that bringing her back to life will be complicated and difficult. "You have to do it with integrity," he said.
Whedon also said he was cool with the recent Emmy snub (the series got no nominations). "With a name like Buffy The Vampire Slayer it's not like we're Emmy-bait," he said.
The fact that the series mixes comedy with drama and horror also makes it a puzzle for many Emmy voters, he guessed.
Gellar pointed to the incredibly strong fan base for the series via the Internet as recognition enough.
While The WB recently shut down the buffy.com Web site, UPN says they're working to clear legal hurdles to re-open the site at the same address.
Whedon says he has no plans for now to cross over any Buffy character with his other show, Angel, which is stil on The WB. "Angel doesn't need them -- they have a strong ensemble of their own," he said.

'Buffy' Nervous, Excited About Move
PASADENA, Calif. (AP) - Sarah Michelle Gellar says she's ``nervous'' and ``excited'' about her series, ``Buffy the Vampire Slayer,'' moving from the WB to UPN this fall.``For five years we had a home. ... So the thought of making the move was scary,'' the 24-year-old actress said Monday. ``But I think (UPN) has given us a new excitement about the show.'' Gellar and other cast members vowed to stay with ``Buffy'' as long as it remains fresh and healthy. Co-star Alyson Hannigan, who plays Buffy's mystical friend Willow, joked, ``When we're 80 we could still be slaying vampires.'' ``Buffy'' will debut on UPN with a two-hour special Oct. 9. In November, the cast will perform a musical episode of the show. UPN had aggressively pursued the series, which had been one of the WB's top-rated series, and reportedly has ordered 44 episodes for about $102 million. The fantasy drama spawned the spin-off series ``Angel,'' which will remain on the WB. Speaking to the Television Critics Association, Gellar and series creator Joss Whedon agreed the move was necessary because the WB was not willing to continue providing the budget it needed to remain strong. ``We have more money (at UPN) than we would have at the WB, where we'd have no money and would have to use hand puppets,'' Whedon joked. ``UPN basically stepped in and said, `Make the show the way you've been making it.''' Adam Ware, UPN's chief operating officer, said the struggling network hopes to use ``Buffy'' to draw new viewers and sponsors. He credited ``Buffy'' and ``Roswell,'' another sci-fi teen drama that UPN bought after it was dropped by the WB, for attracting advertisers such as The Gap and Maybelline. The cast acknowledged that resurrecting the show won't be easy, partly because Buffy died in the season finale after hurling herself into an abyss to trap an evil force. Asked what changes she'd like to see in her character, Gellar replied: ``Alive.'' *transplanted by WillTara

See now, I'd love that. All these pensioners hobbling round, with Willow and Tara as two aged lesbians....like the couple in 'If These Walls Could Talk 2'. Or not. ------------------

Musical episode...if Joss is writing the music himself doesn't that mean hope for any prevoiusly know songs are a bit of wishful thinking? but if his writing for his music is as good as his scripts it going to be in very good hands . quote:

Didn't her write the music for Giles' song in Restless? I thought that was great. I wanted it to go on longer. Every time I watch it, that song gets stuck in my head for days. And which Disney songs did her write? I was unaware that he did this. quote:

Wow, only six? That's barely even recurring. That's almost like guest starring. That sucks, but I guess it's what's best for the show(s). IP: Logged |

Heh . . . that reminds me of the comment Amber made in her interview at Watchers' Web, saying that they'd all be in wheelchairs and the show would get renamed "Buffy the Vampire Kicker." Which gives me hilarious mental images of Buffy zipping around in an electric chair, bapping vampires with a wooden cane-stake.
