Hi Dawn. Well, it seems this thread has made a lot of people think. Good. It's been a very friendly thread. (Nothing like talking about other people's sex lives, I guess.) A few other people have had your opinion. There is one big problem with Buffy "pretending" to be sexually active. Everybody's premise for her doing that is because she thinks everyone else is having sex. But the scene we're talking about is in the library with Willow. Certainly nobody, not even Buffy, thinks Willow isn't a virgin. Buffy _way_ doesn't follow the crowd. I can't imagine her feeling a need to pretend having sex for _Willow_. >Now, I'm only 13, so I don't have any first hand experience with this >kind of thing, But I have watched TV for as long as I remember, and >generally teenagers who are virgins think they are the only ones.

This is the write-up that accompanied those pix uv SMG, Nick, and Aly... - ---Chris Heavy Necking Buffy brings an infusion of new blood to The WB-- now, if only she could take a bigger bite out of the ratings Sarah Michelle gellar, star of the WB's Buffy the Vampire Slayer, has her dream story line for this season picked out. "Right now I just want a vacation," says the 20-year-old actress wearily. "So it's Buffy in a coma." * Over Michigan J. Frog's dead body. Since it swooped onto the schedule last March, Buffy--a hybrid comedy and action hour about three teen misfits who fight supernatural monsters in Sunnydale, USA--has brought The WB something none of the fledgling network's other shows have: respect. Reviewers rejoiced at its fang-sharp wit and high-school-as-horror-show premise, and the media made an instant celebrity of former All My Children star Gellar (no wonder the poor girl's tired--she just finished shooting the features Scream 2 and I Know What You Did Last Summer). * "I believe [Buffy] had a lot to do with me getting the movies," says Gellar. "It got my name out in a different circle than soap fans. Now when people look at me they scream 'Buffy!' instead of [her Children character] 'Kendall!'" Buffy has upped The WB's profile, too. "I think we really put it on the map in a way it hadn't been before," says Joss Whedon, the sometime screenwriter (Toy Story, Alien Resurrection) who created and exec-produces Buffy. "I would, however, like more than five people to watch it." Ah, the classic dilemma of the critical darling: After debuting with The WB's highest Monday numbers ever (4.8 million viewers), Buffy has seen its ratings fall to mere-mortal levels--it ranked 144th out of 155 shows last season. The biggest problem may be its lead-in, 7th Heaven, a wholesome family drama aimed at viewers who think "camp" is something you do in the woods. "That isn't the best matchup," admits entertainment president Garth Ancier, who expects to transplant Buffy to Tuesdays when The WB starts programming that night in January. Meanwhile, Whedon is working on strengthening Buffy's creative bite. This season, two punk vampires, Spike and Drusilla (James Marsters and Juliet Landau), replace the now-obliterated nemesis, Master. "The idea was to get somebody younger and anarchic," says Whedon of the ghoulish duo who will wreak havoc from an abandoned factory. In addition, look for Sunnydale's bitch goddess, Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter), to get more involved in demon fighting, and for Buffy's smart-alecky cohort Xander (Nicholas Brendon) to finally make some headway in his crush on her; Buffy will seduce him to irk Angel (David Boreanaz), her undead true love. "It's a very typical high school dilemma," says Gellar of the "nice, safe guy"-versus-"bad boy" dynamic. "When we come back, you'll find Buffy really trying to find her place." The same could be said for The WB. The so-called weblet took a giant leap toward legitimacy in July when it commandeered five stations formerly affiliated with rival UPN. Even more important is The WB's knack for attracting distinctive talent. While UPN's biggest claim to fame this fall is a show featuring Andrew Dice Clay, The WB boasts sitcoms starring former Seinfeld writer-producer Carol Leifer and Tom Arnold, in addition to the mid-season drama Dawson's Creek, a beautifully crafted coming-of-age series from Kevin Williamson, Hollywood's screenwriter of the moment, thanks to the Scream movies. "There was interest from other networks in [Creek]," says Williamson. But The WB "reminded me of Miramax. They're the independents. They've given me freedom to do what I want." That's because Ancier believes luring young movie scribes like Williamson will help The WB forge a hipper image: "There's no reason to exist as a fifth network unless you program differently from the other guys." Gellar appreciates that sentiment: "So many shows this year were canceled after three episodes and had better ratings than we did. The WB understands it takes time to build a show, and they've given us the time." Unfortunately for Gellar, that doesn't include time off. --Kristen Baldwin BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER THE WB, 9-10 PM STARTS SEPT. 15 Gellar--with fellow small-screen saviors Brendon and Alyson Hannigan (who plays Willow)--hopes to scare the competition away ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 6 Sep 1997 08:06:23 -0500 (CDT) From: gryphon@execpc.com Subject: Re: BUFFY: Introduction and how I got here On Fri, 05 Sep 1997, "Sassenach Outlander" wrote: > I may be the oldest fan on this list. >I'm a 37 year old mother of five boys - can you even imagine.

I'm not married, no children (though I do have a baby nephew), no serious relationships, lifestyle basically the same as in high school except with more disposable income. I can afford to buy what I want and travel where I want, but the things I'm actually interested in are still pretty much the same as when I was a bright-but-nerdy high school student; I pay for and go on my own vacations rather than plan family vacations, buy and read history books instead of liking history classes, still like Star Trek and comics, etc. So perhaps I like the show because I still AM in high school, psychologically speaking, the male counterpart of someone like Willow. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 06 Sep 1997 11:14:45 -0700 From: Lisa Rose Subject: Re: BUFFY: SPOILER Entertainment Weekly article At 11:32 AM 9/6/97 -0700, Sebastian Luberto wrote: >Hi!! >S >P >O >I >L >E >R >S > >> >> Someone wrote: >> I just read the article about Buffy in Entertainment Weekly...

That's exactly it. It's called a "claddagh," and pronounced claddah. Some people wear them as wedding rings, some as tokens of love, and some as symbols of friendship. I think the ring is a David thing, though, not an Angel thing. I don't remember seeing Angel wearing it first season, though if he starts wearing it this season, it'll be a good topic for speculation. Willow could have given it to him as a sign of friendship--sort of a "welcome back to humanity" thing. I could also see Buffy needing something for a birthday gift for him and going to Giles for an idea, or even researching Irish history for something.

I guess the > romance stuff *is* important to me. There's a theory among some of us that she's trying to drive Willow and Xander away. It's much safer for them, I'll bet she'd think. Of course, is anyplace all that safe on a Hellmouth? Especially when you're going to school literally on top of the Hellmouth. I can't wait, though, to see what they're going to be doing about it.

Yep. It isn't a "girlish" ring. It's an Irish ring. I can't spell the darned word, but it's a "Cladah" (wrong spelling, sorry) ring. Depending on how it's worn, it could mean that you are in love, taken, or un-involved with anyone. For those of you out there who have the translation, It's on his right hand, middle finger.

And then he could knowingly wear it as the "taken" way for Buffy. Aww, how sweet. *>>"Casinos? Yeah, been there, done 'em. Angel and I will stay in our *room* tonight..."<< LOL! Xander would love hearing that! *OK, regarding the topic on loss of viewers due to romance: Some of you want more action, some want a little more romance. I personally think the show is perfect as it is. But, actually, I would like it if they had the same amount of action as they did last season, but also a little more of dealing with the emotions of the characters. Somebody mentioned before that "Prophesy Girl" was the model episode for what they thought next season would be like. That was my favorite episode last season and I'd be thrilled if that was what we'll be getting next season. (That tied with "Angel" of course, but only because I'm madly in love with D.B. :-)) *OK, no matter how many people have said this, I need to say it for myself to have peace of mind :-). For "how to make the show better".... The characters on the show are perfect and there is no way to improve something that can't get any better. The way they all interact and balance each other out could not possibly be improved or even duplicated. Its just perfect chemistry between all of them. *Lastly, I've successfully converted my two best friends to be almost (very close, too) as crazy about the show as I am. They both happen to like Xander though, while I go for Angel more myself (have ya noticed?). Oh well, less competition :-). But anyway, now we've got two more down and the rest of the world to go! ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 06 Sep 1997 12:50:20 -0700 From: Lisa Rose Subject: Re: BUFFY: SPOILER Entertainment Weekly article At 01:29 PM 9/6/97 -0500, Tina wrote: >> >S >> >P >> >O >> >I >> >L >> >E >> >R >> >S > >Lisa Rose wrote: >> But I didn't >> wanna know this about Buffy, Xander, & Angel in advance.

Joss will probably use this as an ongoing source of conflict and tension, Buffy's not wanting to slay, Buffy not wanting her friends to help her slay, etc... because of the danger, or so they can just live "normal" lives. But in the end, everyone will probably get sucked back in out of sheer necessity, because the collective need is greater than any of their individual needs, etc... If Buffy just wants to push Xander away though, seducing him seems a rather strange way to go about it!
