Usually my messages get cut....but I think that you may be right. just a little poll for all the SMG fans: When Angel gets his own show it will... A) bomb and bring Buffy with it B) blow up and its ratings will move up and buffys down C) produce the same ratings as buffy D) bomb and have no effect on buffy except for the fact that he has to come back on her show. Also it seems as if Buffys ratings are dwindling. It still holds a spot in the 90-100 spot on the tv charts but the ratings are still dropping this season. What up with this. I think buffy is in danger of finishing a 3rd or 4th season but might not come back. It now has to go up against fox the PJs as well as King of the Hill. The PJs placed 6th on the charts despite bad reviews. Buffy gets raves yet the series is not recognized. At least we know that Seth Sarah and Allison have promising, after buffy, movie careers. - - To unsubscribe to smg-fans, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe smg-fans" in the body of the message.

I now know the full monty of the eppy line-out. That seems really interesting about the premises of the episode: A SLAYER'S POWER IS TAKEN AWAY FOR ONE NIGHT TO MAKE SURE THAT SHE STILL HAS THE EMMOTIONAL STRENGTH AND CONFIDENCE AND STABILITY TO ENDURE THE FORCES OF EVIL.

In every generation, there is a Chosen One destined to stand against the vampires, demons and forces of darkness. She is the Slayer--strong, intuitive, courageous and able to kickbox in strappy leather sandals. But before Buffy the Vampire Slayer premiered as a mid-season replacement in March 1997, the demon hunter had to battle something more sinister than monsters and ghouls: devilishly low expectations. The show's concept sounded positively anemic--a comedy-horror-gothic romance- drama hybrid based on an unsuccessful movie with a horribly campy title about a high school cheerleader called to slaughter the undead. The actors were relative unknowns and the series aired on the WB, a fledgling network struggling to find a single viewer, let a lone a mass audience. Buffy seemed destined, all right--destined for swift cancellation. Then the unthinkable happened. The show turned out to actually be good. Adults bit on its fang-sharp wit and sarcastic take on the high-school-as-a- den-of-evil premise. Teenagers were drawn to the rich characters (and the supple young actors)--sardonic, angst-ridden and occasionally flighty, yes but also strong, noble and given an emotional depth rarely ascribed to adolescents. The next thing you knew positive word of mouth spread, the WB's ratings spiked and star Sarah Michelle Gellar's porcelain features began gracing the cover of Rolling Stone. Now Buffy the Vampire Slayer itself looks to be a chosen one--it has the chance to join the ranks of franchises like Star Trek and The X-Files, whose zealous underground fan base ballooned into mass adoration. Buffy fans wear hip-huggers from the Buffy boutique clothing line, plaster their lockers with photos of David Boreanaz--the actor who plays Buffy's tortured vampire beau, Angel--and fill the Internet with agonized posts that dissect the various love triangles cutting through Sunnydale. There are licensed novels, comic books, incense holders and jewelry. Next fall, series creator Joss Whedon unleashes Angel, a spinoff starring Boreanaz. To top it all off, there's talk of Whedon bringing the slayer back to the big screen. Less than two years after it premiered, this genre bending cult hit with the bubble-brained name seems to be veering toward becoming a phenomenon. But how? "The fact that it started out as a cult hit is brilliant," Boreanaz enthuses. "I think that [Buffy] is appealing because it's an hour of fun--not-too-heavy thinking with a bit of humor and drama mixed in. It taps into people's adolescence and [they], in turn, can identify with the characters. And it's done in a wild way." Anthony Stewart Head, the British actor who plays Buffy's vampire-hunting mentor Giles, is equally admiring: "This show is like a huge discovery. It has gotten better as it's gone along. Joss always said that its [popularity] would increase just through word of mouth. It's truly amazing." Journalists have been equally impressed, generally hailing Buffy as one of the best hours on TV. Joyce Millman, television critic for the respected online magazine Salon (www.salon-magazine.com) says that Buffy's psychological richness immediately hooked her. "I think the only show on TV right now that works on as many levels as Buffy is The X-Files," Millman notes. "A lot of people have used high school as a metaphor for hell before--I'm thinking of Carrie and Heathers--but Buffy takes it a step further. Here, Buffy and her friends have all the usual teenage problems, like love troubles and cruel classmates and parents and teachers who don't understand you. But they're also living on the mouth of Hell and they all understand that their problems are dwarfed in comparison. "What I love about the show is that these kids are literally saving the world, but all the adults around them think they're totally self-absorbed," she continues. "I was also quite taken with Buffy's self-confidence and physical strength--you don't see that very often in television portrayals of teenage girls. I saw her as having Scully's cool and Xena's fighting moves--a perfect combination."- - - To unsubscribe to smg-fans, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe smg-fans" in the body of the message.
