Charisma Carpenter addresses problematic Buffy sequel reports.

I'll never understand why some journalists have seem to have such a hard time just reporting what people say in these kind of situations, and feel they have to put their twist it like that.

Thoughts? I'd prefer the series to start with a brief appearance from Eliza if they did this.

No thank you. If they do bring back Faith, I'd rather they not kill her off right away.

There's no mystery or anything complicated about it.

Their job is to drive traffic to their site.

It's the reason headlines were invented.

Sure, but you should be able to do that without lying.

"Should" is the most useless word in the English language.

But it shouldn't be.

They don't talk about the reboot at all, but it's just nice to see them together again.

Excellent choice. I was really impressed with her acting in Skeleton Crew.

Does that kill a second season of Skeleton Crew or will she star in both?

There's a second season of Skeleton Crew?

TV seasons these days tend to be short enough to allow an actor to work in more than one series. If there are plans for a second season of SC, hopefully the scheduling can be worked out.

Does it even need a second season? The objective of that show was pretty much done

It was one of the best Star Wars shows they've done. Why wouldn't we want more? The "objective" of a show is not merely to resolve its plot; the plot is just a vehicle to tell stories about the characters and their world. If one plot is resolved, you can come up with more plots that deepen the exploration of those things.

Besides, I disagree that even the plot was completely resolved. Season 1 ended abruptly, without any denouement, so there were enough dangling threads that I'd be surprised if they didn't have plans for a continuation.

I mean they could do more with Jude Law but it wouldn’t be Skeleton Crew. I wouldn’t mind seeing that.

We were too used to 24 yo Tom Welling playing 15 yo CK in Smallville, so yes, seeing an actual 15 yo playing a teenager is shocking indeed LOL.
Hopefully this Buffy show is fast tracked into production, I hope the new vampires are actually scary this time!

 

[Rich Watson]

I noticed SMG mentions 'New Sunnydale' in the video so it sounds like they spent the intervening years rebuilding the town. That's not going to have horrible consequences!

 

[thribs]

I wonder How are they going to address what happened in Angel in this?
