Venom Posted September 18, 2023 Posted September 18, 2023 1 minute ago, Buffy said: Well okay. Question then becomes, will she still be attending the same high school and passing Buffy, Willow, and Xander in the hallways? I know the article says Buffy Summers doesn’t exist but that’s kind of weird. I think she should still exist in this alternate reality since everybody else still does? Maybe Buffy does exist but she never gets expelled from her LA high school as she wouldn’t have burned down the school gym due to her slaying lol. I think Cordelia would be ditched by her popular peers after her slayer duties start. As a result, she might be drawn to Xander and Willow. But that’s just what I imagine. Who knows how this Audible series will be as Alyson Hannigan and Nicholas Brendon won’t be a part of it. Perched!

fridayteenage Posted September 18, 2023 Posted September 18, 2023 Does it say anywhere it's high school Cordelia? I know she played a decade younger than her age, but will she play a teen again decades later?
ithinkheknowsoutsold Posted September 21, 2023 Posted September 21, 2023 Watching Buffy Season 1 right now, just got finished with my Charmed run and honestly the first seasons for both series are quite similar tonally. Loving everything so far, Buffy feels a lot grittier than Charmed even if that sometimes comes at the cost of having less well-rounded characters. Excited to see how it goes! 1
ithinkheknowsoutsold Posted September 21, 2023 Posted September 21, 2023 Also, Xander is so cute I wish they made him slightly less annoying early on though. 1

ithinkheknowsoutsold Posted September 24, 2023 Posted September 24, 2023 I hate the Buffy wiki so much, I've spoiled so much of the series for myself. Now I know about the existence of Kendra and Faith as slayers, the true circumstances of Dawn's existence, Joyce's death in Season 5, Cordelia leaving after Season 3, and so much other stuff I wish I wouldn't have known otherwise. 1
ithinkheknowsoutsold Posted September 26, 2023 Posted September 26, 2023 @Buffy @livelikemusic Y'all were right about Season 2 being a shift from season 1. It still retains its sense of humour and cheekiness, but every episode (except Incan Mummy Girl) feels darker and like it holds more weight than the bulk of season 1. The episode where Buffy's old crush tries to trade her to Spike is extremely touching event though when it started I thought it was going to be very filler-y. The Halloween episode was uber one, and the episodes about Giles' past and the one where Kendra is introduced have season finale-levels of drama and intensity, loving everything so far! 2

My jaw dropped when Kendra revealed her identity. Completely changed the entire prophecy. I was like “HOW?” It only gets better and better. And the fight choreography was a huge upgrade right? I don’t think the choreographers started working on the show until Season 2 and onward. One of the reasons why I watched the show religiously was for the epic fight scenes and Buffy’s witty slayer puns. The show was so relatable and empowering. Truly one of the best shows of all time.

Can she even throw a punch and make it look believable? Lol. Her personality is super annoying, so I can actually see her making funny comebacks as she’s slaying. The vampires would probably want to die just to hear her shut up Have you never watched Angel? She throws down plenty Spoiler especially in her final episode.

StarsAllAligned Posted September 27, 2023 Posted September 27, 2023 But also, PERCHED for the audible. How did I miss that news especially since I love Charisma, I remember watching that show I Survivied because she was the host.

ithinkheknowsoutsold Posted September 27, 2023 Posted September 27, 2023 I love Willow so much, she's probably my favourite character. I just adore how optimistic and upbeat she is. She reminds me of one of my irl besties. 1

Excellent idea, I second this. It's such a shame that these big companies choose to reboot existing series instead of continuing their story in a different direction. I remember the outrage fans felt when the Charmed reboot was announced back in 2018. A lot of would've liked to see a series based on the main sisters' past lives in the 1920s, and that still sounds like a highly fresh and innovative idea. An anthology series about Slayers would be similarly fun, though I can imagine the budget being quite high for a series like that since it'll also sort of double as a period drama.
ithinkheknowsoutsold Posted September 27, 2023 Posted September 27, 2023 Okay Jenny's death broke me.

They really took what worked during the first season, ran with it and fixed what did not work. Overall, an amazing turn around for a brilliant second season, and it is why fans say stay beyond the first season! 4 hours ago, ithinkheknowsoutsold said: Okay Jenny's death broke me. Mhmm.

The Man Who Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 (edited) Wait, why would you go and read about the other seasons of the show and not expect to see spoilers? Edited September 28, 2023 by The Man Who 1
The Man Who Posted September 28, 2023 Posted September 28, 2023 I’m not sure how many of you in here have watched Supernatural, but I love the amount of Buffy cameos they did, I didn’t fully appreciate them at the time but whilst I was watching Buffy I was like “OMG they were in Supernatural” I would have loved to have seen Buffy first as James and Charisma play a married couple in S7 and it would have made me laugh seeing Cordelia and Spike together.

All that foreshadowing building up to Faith, Dawn, and Glory are ruined now the writers do an amazing job dropping subtle details hinting at future seasons. That was one thing I was always so impressed with. They literally think of these details years in advance.
