Sarah Michelle Gellar claims one male executive was responsible for killing the BUFFY sequel series
>>218612385based chud unwittingly protecting buffy fans from a shitty reboot
>>218612385hahah thats a new spin for this dopehead. she wanted to be in movies, not doing TV shows
It's over
>>218612385the truth is that chloe zhao is getting way more interest now that her career is fully revived and she didn't have the heart to tell sarah to shove her nostalgiaslop up her ass. guy is just falling on the sword.
>>218612385I love her candor. What's his name?
>movie buffy was aryan vs. gay jewish diddler vampire>tv buffy is jew on top of jew on top of jewBased exec
It’s obvious that politics were a factor
>>218612459She’s in movies, as it says there, she has one being released right now
>>218612616I seriously can't believe you posted a screenshot of reddit.
>>218612616Probably they wanted a show about Buffy, not about a new slayer. And Sarah just wanted to be a guest star.
Alec Baldwin strikes again.
>>218612385A woman would've greenlit it? Go to another studio
>>218612616>reddit
>>218612616why is every single leftoid exactly like this?
>>218612385based
>the producer who put up millions of their own money, they just backed out because they were a big stupid meanie head.More likely they saw it was Batgirl levels of terrible, and would rather cut their losses.
>>218612643exactly, they already did the show for 7 seasons and the cast was done doing it, execs wanted to continue the show longer but she noped out of it
>>218612385One GAY male executive, clearly
>>218612385>one male executive>https://press.hulu.com/executives/Very short list. My bet is Craig Erwich.https://press.hulu.com/executives/
>>218612616>"Woke" No. No more than Xena was. No more than Charmed was. It wasn't "woke". It was barely even 'liberal'. It was one cautionary tale after another.
>>218612911Excellent work from whoever did the casting, what a shame if the thing is really dead
>>218612952Xena kissed a black dude in the first episode lmao. It was wokeslop
>>218612983It’s dead. Completely dead.
>>218612385So now people have an issue with executives/writers who didn't watch or actively don't like the source material?What about the Halo show? The shitty resident evil reboot? Tomb Raider reboot? New James Bond series???
>>218612952You're mostly right but there were episode with feminist messages, including the series finale, also the episodes about>NOOOO YOU CAN'T CREATE A ROBOT GIRLFRIEND THAT'S CREEPY
>>218612911wait, that guy is depriving us of these three qts being vampire slayers? i want a name!
Patriot
>>218612385Her career is over now, isn't it? You can't talk about an exec like this, especially RIGHT after you work with them.
>>218613124Does she even have a career to speak of?
>>218612616
>>218613124She's been semi-retired since her last tv show got canceled in 2014. I doubt she cares
>>218613188>it's le wokethe chris character is poking fun at it though.
>>218613188Chris is being cheeky why is Stacy such a buzzkill jeez
>>218612385A true hero.
>>218613124Pretty much, but I don't think she cares about that at this point of her life. She is not a young star, you know. If not a problem for her if she don't work anymore in the industry. And it's just sweet, sweet revenge, because the dude "who killed Buffy" will be fired anytime.
>>218613327>And it's just sweet, sweet revenge, because the dude "who killed Buffy" will be fired anytime.why, ultimately it was just one pilot out of hundredsyou weirdo
>>218613462obv you don't know how Hollywood works lol
>>218612952>>218613048>>NOOOO YOU CAN'T CREATE A ROBOT GIRLFRIEND THAT'S CREEPYThat IS fucking creepy. Its as bad as a woman claiming she loves a fucking dildo.And while 90s feminism was part of the seedbed, not all of it was fucking stupid. Back then, it wasn't cuntrag number 30 shitting all over every relationship in the office she didn't approve of after seizing someones house in a false HOA claim, it was single or sometimes even married women making things verbally and even physically clear that they weren't interested and still having hands laid on them and men getting bitchy and whiny and threatening them. Shit like that wasn't even just about feminism, you could pull the justification for actions against straight the Old Testament if you wished. Coveting someones elses wife for instance.>>218613004How did that end, by the way? In the longer run?
>>218612952>CharmedIt was woke, literally how!?
>>218613542He died and Xena convinced Hades to let him into heaven. Happy ending
>>218612616>>218612616No words could convey the contempt I have for these repulsive creatures
>>218613696They are objectively better, happier, and more successful people than you fa/tv/irgin chud kek
>>218612385You gotta love her.
>>218612449Yay! Chuddy wins again! Go chuddy! Go chuddy! Wooohooooo
>>218612385Not all heroes wear capes
>>218612385God bless him for preventing more remake slop
super upset about this, I was really looking forward to more Buffy
>>218614200Going by the pilot it seems you were spared, anon. Buffy in name only
>>218612385she mad she doesn't get that easy money, fucking whore.
>>218614797Stop it. Seriously
>>218612616These people are aware Coongler is developing an X-Files reboot for the same platform with a black woman as the lead, right? Streaming slop can stay woke if the budgets are rightsized. Pixar is making $200+ million movies that have to be appealing to as wide an audience as possible. The idpol garbage of the last decade played far worse than funny talking animals and toys. It outright got some of their slop banned in some countries.
>>218613327If someone high up enough cares about Buffy that much they wouldn't have so much trouble getting it made and ultimately have it shitcanned
>>218613243Yeah I figured, there's semi-retirement and then there's burning bridges though.
>>218613048That's aging really well with the depressed women who are spilling their hearts out to ChatGPT. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if there was a decent overlap with Buffy's audience.
Good, not everything needs a sequel or a reboot.
>>218615536Geller wanted an easy pay check. She's old and she knows she isn't getting leading lady roles anymore. Old women either retire or move on to prestige media, but she can't act for shit.
>>218612385the executive taht associates himself with a project he don't believe in... IS HE JEWISH perchance
>>218615078
>>218612385That is an extremely unflattering hairstyle and angle for her.
>>218615887Redditors may be some of the dumbest people on earth holy shit. They live in la-la land and know effectivley nothing and has horrendous analysis of everything. Though twitter is actually worse.
>>218615924Looking more Jewish by the day
>>218612865Because they're all in a constant state of bitter seething
>>218612616Why do they ALL write like that?
>>218616131Noses do not stop growing throughout our lives, and for an Ashkenazi woman that means a big big honker when they grow old. That's why Witches have stereotypically huge noses (old women), or why the old Jewish guy is so recognizeable. So she could pass but now her nose outs her. Did she marry and breed a goy? I hope she did, then her mixed kids could have avoided this issue.
>>218613542>>>NOOOO YOU CAN'T CREATE A ROBOT GIRLFRIEND THAT'S CREEPY>That IS fucking creepy. Its as bad as a woman claiming she loves a fucking dildo.Wanda and Vision were two of the most beloved characters, and one of the most beloved couples, in the MCU. Fans are still demanding justice for the way they've been handled thus far.
>>218615927>>218616267At least two of those posters are bots.
>>218616324She's married to Freddie Prinze Jr, who is half Latino but not Jewish. They have two kids.
>>218616267>>218616441They're not bots they're THAT clueless. Many are gay or WOMEN. >>218616456Good. Jews should intermix and downplay their schizo and giant nose genes.
>>218612385>my world premiere>that I worked very hard forShe only saw this as another in for her. She latched on to Zhao and tried to use her to get her own bullshit across the finish line. Sounds like Hulu saw through all the bullshit and knew it was going to flop
>>218612385Words words words. So who is the executive?
>>218612449nah, I kind of believe her. People like that exist, that have all the power and that want to kill any joy in the world. It gets them off in some way. How one person can sadistically kill a project everyone has worked hard on and millions are looking forward to. It sounds absurd, like why would anyone do that, but it happens. And her words resonate with me that he is exactly the type of psychopathic individual that would do it.
>>218612720Did it hurt you here in your safe space?
>>218612616I hope more of this happens and hope to see you sent to Iran as well
>>218612589I wouldn't be surprised lmao
>>218617148Ignore that retard. If you don't have any use for reddit ever you're most likely an idiot with a narrow set of interests and a narrower amount of depth to them.
>>218612911I like that sian girls I'm happy she will continue on severance
>>218612385>exec hates the original showI believe it, it's every other show these days. The 'a man' angle is just a retard feminist spin to drive 4chan engagement. As we've seen repeatedly the gender of these fucks never matters, all they want is to promote their own shitty politics and smear shit on whatever they're rebooting or remaking.
>>218612385the slayer got slayedoh poor horatio, how the turn tables
GO CHUDDY!GO GOGO CHUDDY!
>>218612385Time to get a real job, sweaty!Seriously though, when I had heard Freddie Prinze Jr. had severe TDS, I wondered how/why we never heard SMG run her mouth? Looks like we hear her now...
>>218612385>We had an executive on our show who was not only not a fan of the original, but was proud to constantly remind us that he had never seen the entirety of the series and how it wasn't for him.Got away easy here. Be glad he didn't shape it entirely to his sensibilities. And instead of one property it's literally one after the other for over a decade straight across tv, film, video games, comics
>>218617621Alyssin had a stupid easy job hosting Penn and Teller in Las Vegas for a decade. Sarah stopped working and needs a quick cash infusion.
>>218617621I still love her, bros...
>>218613188>weaponize my feminism against meBased.
>>218612385>>218617051i've read the script, it's dogshit and most of buffy is dogshit. i haven't seen every episode either, but i respect the good ones and this shit ain't one of the good ones
>>218617148>>218617269
No Joss No Wosstch.
>>218617931>>218617971Alyson Hannigan has been grinding forever. She doesn't even need the money especially after two hit tv series on replay. Jodie/Stephanie from Full House is a grinder too. Lost all her money to meth and re-invented herself. Currently getting some weird tattoos though.
>>218616480It's bots. Reddit is used to train LLM's so governments and ngos have been using bot armies on reddit to effect LLMs and thereby influence public opinion.
>>218617931Did you forget the super successful syndicated sitcom money from himym
>>218618989Right. That doesn't happen on 4chan, the fastest-growing site from 2014-2018.
>>218616456The daughter is hot.
>>218619437And Sarah planned on using the reboot to cast her daughter in a pivotal role and then start making real money off her as an actress. The Gellar's waited too long to start shilling out their kids.
>>218612385I'm willing to bet she's misrepresenting what actually happened.
>>218612616Nobody wanted to see feminazi wokeslop.
>>218612385>i hate it and i haven't even seen it!1!This dude is a /tv/ poster
>>218620050He developed critical instincts after a decade plus of woke bullshit We're tired of it and if you want to talk shit about white tv shows how bout we do it face to fist and I guarantee I see you in an ICU. Yo Giles hit me with that fire!
Why does an executive need to have seen the show to greenlight or shitcan a reboot of it? They don't care about quality just numbers.
>>218612865who owns the media?https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Pov0MKuyJfg&pp=0gcJCcUKAYcqIYzv
>>218612751This is the most likely scenario. The studio was expecting a show starring Geller, featuring a new vampire killer in training.
>>218613903If you've seen pics of reddit meetups you'd know they're disgusting neckbeards and the stereotype is true
Good. Buffy should not be played by a gentile whe antisemitism is on the rise and Iranian sleeper cells are everywhere.
Woke is dead.We won.
>>218612911This show would have brought back the waifuwars /tv/ has been desperately needing for ages, I’m so fucking pissed it’s not actually going to happen
>>218623538>Sinners>One Battle After Anotherbootlickers need to cope
>>218613542Kill yourself simp
>>218612886>Producer used his own money to make the pilotAmazing level of stupidity in this post
>>218612952>Nuh-uh, I liked it as a teen so it couldn’t be woke!Oh yeah. A female protagonist with no body builder physique beating up men, acting girl bossy against older male characters, etc. can’t be woke because it happened in the 90s!
>>218612385Notice how she tactfully didn't name the Jew?
>>218612589No one named Chloe has ever amounted to anything
>>218612385why would you want an executive who was a fan of the original show? he would have to be a stupid guy if he liked this product, unfit to hold an executive position.
>>218612947Correct >Virtually every day last week, the two studios on the Buffy reboot, 20th Television and Searchlight Television, touched base with the project’s producers and creative team, indicating that a pickup for the pilot starring Gellar and Ryan Kiera Armstrong seemed imminent after its writers, Nora and Lilla Zuckerman, had done a rewrite. Then at 6 p.m. on Friday, Disney Television Group President Craig Erwich, who oversees Hulu Originals, called auspices to inform them that the project was not moving forward, sources said.>After the pilot was completed and delivered, according to multiple sources, Hulu’s main note was that it played too young, with some indicating that the streamer also felt the show was too “small.” It is unclear how exactly the pilot went through development, green light, casting and production without such concerns being addressed. Armstrong is young; she was about 15 when she was cast. Geller was young in the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer too; she was about 18 when she landed the pilot.>After feedback from the streamer that the pilot did not take big enough swings, the Zuckermans set out to do a rewrite to address the notes, sources said. The new script was 90 minutes. It was more adult, featuring a lot more of Gellar’s Buffy, and was described as more of a streaming than a network show. According to sources, the rewrite was well received at both studios, 20th TV and Searchlight TV, triggering the internal talk of a pending pickup, with at least one executive in charge “putting everything on the line” for it, as one person put it.https://deadline.com/2026/03/buffy-inside-story-reboot-killed-why-sarah-michelle-gellar-1236757372/
>>218613004>>218613542>>218613657That was when Xena was evil and she seduced him for resources for her army. It wasn't a love story.
>>218617051And I'm that kind of individual.
>>218625291Alright so the terrible leaked script is the first draft. The slayers name also doesn’t match (it’s Rowan on the actual call sheet) and her hair color is wrong
>>218624864it's best not to burn any bridges, specially when you're a hasbeen
>>218625291>imminent after its writers, Nora>new slayer is Novahmmmm
>>218624864Anon… you may want to sit down for this…
>>218625477I highly doubt that, these are in some way brain damaged, usually over 50. And not trying to be feminist or anything but usually it is men. They are like the guys in solitary in prison who've just completely lost it and are smearing faeces over their own cell, or someone like Keem.
>>218624864it was actually an eternal anglo named Craig Erwich
I've never seen Buffy
Buffy has to be the pop culture thing I liked the most at the time that I've never revisited in decades. Or tied with Battlestar Galactica. Both kinda went to shit to the point I soured on the whole thing.
>>218613004No, the dude's first appearance is in episode 5. She was already kissing white dudes in the episodes before that like Darius in ep 2 because they made her kiss so many dudes early on. In DEI of its day one of the dudes was black after the whites.
>>218625938Don’t bother
>>218625291>featuring a lot more of Gellar’s BuffyI'm fairly sure they wanted a show around Buffy and his friends (at least with Spike and Willow) to get the old viewers back, not a teenager show. Not sure why Disney don't tell Sarah that since their first talk about the reboot.
>>218626585The Cobra Kai route would have been the best, yeah. Pretty dumb that they didn’t just go with that
>>218626621Probably because Sarah just wanted a guest star gig, being like a new Giles to the new generation of Slayers. She hated that all the pressure was on her at Buffy, working 13-15 hours every day.
>>218613962this but unironically
>>218625769Why do Jews age so poorly fuck
>>218626585>>218626621>One source close to the project compared the situation to completing a $3M renovation only to find out that the house has foundation issues.Seems you are right.
>>218626884compare photos of your mom before she had you and 10 years after she had you
>>218612385WHO WAS IT?!
>>218612385To deliver that news prior to this weekend is just petty at worst, and ignorant at best. Amateurism work.
>>218612911Bruh
>>218626986not anyone listed because kaz was also on the original show
Give that man a raise. Show sucked. Original 'gurlpowr' show from the 90's. Then we got BS like "angel' from it. Throw it all out.
>>218626986>>218625291
>>218612947>>218625291why the long face
>>218615887I fucking hope these limp-wrist faggot tranny communists would actually one day try their revolt and i would get a chance to legally in self-defense situations beat the shit out of as many of them as time allows.
>>218612589Chloe's dad is LITERALLY a multi-billionaire. Filmmaking is just a hobby for her.
>>218627121This can’t be a real person
>>218612385but-but /tv/bros I thought we #StandWithMichelle for being a based conservasister. tell me what to think /tv/bros I don't wanna be like some pink shirt wearing pink donut eater!
>>218625291"too young" = too much Crazy Kiera
>>218627121Well then the question is why is he attached to the project in the first place and why does he have veto powers? He's never seen it, he doesn't care about it and he doesn't like the new one. Feels like whoever put him in charge didn't want it to succeed but also didn't want to get their hands dirty? To be honest tho, that could have been me. I don't care about Buffy, Whedons style of writing or the characters and i don't think the world needs more of that. But i wouldn't want to be involved with the project either.
>>218613004Cope. Literal Aryan supermodels were already getting impregnated by BBC over 20-years ago in your supposed "pre-woke era".
>>218612385I don’t know if it’s Buffy per se or what Buffy involves. Seems she doesn’t want to be the lead in an action show and knows that that is a big part of what Buffy entails.
>>218616456If the mother is Jewish then the kids are automatically Jewish, doesn't matter about the dad.
>>218616845Is that season 1? I can't remember. But I do remember Buffy was already dressing like a middle-aged woman in season 2, even though she was still meant to be 17 and in high school.
>>218627334>religious rules from religions I hate are real when it serves meAlso, you didn't even apply the rule correctly, retard
>>218627266That fake mentorship was all for naughtWe voted for this: no more lies
>>218619248I thought the shit ending to HIMYM retroactively killed the show's popularity, like Game of Thrones.
>>218627372I wonder if they will ever speak again They seemed so close
>>218619507The problem is SMG had the gall to think she could revive Buffy all by herself, without Joss Whedon or even Marti Noxon, etc.
>>218627200He's a muppet.
>>218627423marti noxon moar liek FARTY COCKSON amirite lel
>>218612385Fucking KEK at least the Firefly people managed to land a stupid animation
>>218627428He looks like a Resident Evil villain I see the aura
>>218624864>Notice how she tactfully didn't name the Jew?Sarah Michelle Gellar herself is Jewish. Pretty much all the women on Buffy were Jews. SMG even recommended Michelle Trachtenberg for the role of Dawn simply because she was a fellow Jew.
>>218627401Ryan thought they were but the feeling wasn't mutual.
>>218625920>it was actually an eternal anglo named Craig ErwichAnglos don't have dark hair though. Guy looks Jewish.
>>218612911>5/10 faces>zero curvesgod i hate zoomers so much
>>218627502Based tribal nepotism Jews together strong
>>218627423Something struck me funny from Sarah's reaction to the "cancelation". Almost as if she said,>"Everyone else gets a reboot... why NOT Buffy?"Her best friends Selma and Shannen Doherty (RIP) both had their IPs rebooted. Freddie was just on the reboot of Punk Brewster. I'm sure the easy money plays a part for SMG, but I can see her POV. Why not Buffy?
>>218627357Cope. You can't be a proper Jew unless your mother is Jewish, that's just the way it is. Jews don't want you to convert to their religion, unlike muslims.
>>218627401Damn. Ryan looks more like SMG than her own daughter does. Brutal.
>>218627561The pilot would have probably had a better chance WITHOUT Sarah's involvement. The problem is that they would have had to appease her and get her approval, even though she is merely an actor. Joss Whedon would have just told her what to do. But now SMG thinks she has to give creative input for a Buffy reboot.
>>218612385Give him a raise.
>>218612616The wildest part to me is that we haven't had any mainstream television or film that was decidedly right wing in literal decades and these faggots still have the gall to say that studios don't want 'woke'. Every show has been some feminist empowerment garbage. Half the leads are blacks or gays. Sexy women are no longer allowed to exist. The idea that a show being openly feminist empowerment would somehow work AGAINST its chances is delusional.
>>218627665>But now SMG thinks she has to give creative input for a Buffy reboot.I've heard her opinions on Buffy. They're all ass. She hated the musical, didn't think Buffy would sleep with Parker and all kinds of dumb shit.
>>218627677>t. farty cockson
>>218627677>we haven't had any mainstream television or film that was decidedly right wing in literal decadesTop Gun Maverick, Sound of Freedom and everything Taylor Sheridan has ever done
>>218623584but anon we have zendaya now
>>218627502>>218627539I miss her bros. I don't even care if she was a kike, I loved her.
>>218627719For me, what makes a tv/film kino is that it's devoid of non-whites, feminism, etc.
>>218627121He looks like someone combined Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes and made the resulting person shitty.
>>218627677>>218627719White Lotus, Anora, Weapons, After the Hunt
>>218627423Or even from an 'in front of the camera' perspective, without Alyson, Nicholas, Anthony, David, James, Eliza, etc. As much as one may like Buffy (the character and/or the show), who the fuck wants to see JUST Buffy? She was a fun character, but only because she had other fun characters to bounce off of.
Looks like Emma Hix.
>>218627816Goddamnit I love Emma Hix, especially after her small boob job.
whyd dolly do it, bros?
>>218627864She owns part of the company (Sanddollar) that owns the rights for the IP.
>>218627864EPs are always an interesting lot. Some work in an official capacity. And some are listed as EP in name only.
>>218612385Who cares it would of been garbage anyways.
>>218627719I'll concede that Top Gun is openly supportive of the military/industrial complex which is historically a right wing stance. With that said you are being a disingenuous cunt. Modern left/right doesn't care about corporations or big businesses as seen by left wingers (who are historicallyvagainst big business) being a bunch of Disney fanatics and worshiping whatever billionaire celebrity validates their worldview. Identity politics are what 99% of 'woke' claims are about and Top Gun changed the text in its opening crawl and introduced a female pilot specifically to cater to gender equity movements.>>218627786The show with the crossdressing faggot? That White Lotus? Yeah my bad how could I forget that paragon of right wing value.Other than the witch looking like a drag queen, what is riht wing about Weapons? I took it as a politically neutral film. The fag principal and negative portrayal of police struck me as mildly left wing while the unflattering portrayal of addicts and the teacher as well as Brolin's character being the most heroic felt mildly right. It wasn't a 'woke' movie but I think it is retarded to call it brazenly right wing.
>>218612385>nobody wants a reboot featuring ugly hags who were past their prime in 2005 when the entire original series relied on sex appeal
>>218627786>White Lotus How?
>>218612449Joss Whedon is a male feminist looser, the original was already woke and making it even woker sounds just up his alley
>>218627967>rebootIs that the proper term?Or is it a continuation?Like the last re-iteration of Fraiser. WTF was that called?
>>218627758>I don't even care if she was a kike,This is why you will never make it and they will always be in control
>>218627719>>218627786I like how "right wing" is now confused with not shitting on the right wing like how retards call twitter now right wing because it's not 100% exclusively shitting on republicans anymore
>>218625808who is keem? google brings up some rapper
>>218627951>There was a female pilot so it’s not right wing!

>>218628274Another anon's point was >who let it get this far in the process?A pilot? Re-writes? Shilling?>>218628352Her and Buffy don't get along. Friendly. But not friends sort of thing.
>>218613188>>218628274seems like a fairly milquetoast typical whedonesque joke no? it's not being too judgemental nor too biased towards chris, stacy or feminismof course it depends on context and everything, but i don't think this is that egregious.
>>218627561>Why not Buffy?the audience has all grown up. idk why they'd think casting a teenager as the new slayer was a good idea.
>>218628440At some point we need to start making movies and TV shows for people under 30
>>218628479sure, but at that point you're not making it for the old audience. dexter's reboot worked because it managed to pull the old audience and new audience for example.
>>218628507>you're not making it for the old audienceWhy is that bad?
>>218628549you're wasting the IP, aka the reason why these reboots are getting done in the first place.
>>218628571You aren't wasting an IP if you build it up for future generations
>>218628440Because they want to keep it as a teen show>>218628507>but at that point you're not making it for the old audienceSays who? Plenty of people are capable of watching teen shows even as adults.
>>218628595>teenage dramado these even exist outside of disney+ channels? every highschool drama casts adults.
>>218627401Hagmaxing
>>218628595>Plenty of people are capable of watching teen shows even as adults.But only if there's hot chicks in it. That's the rub!Today's reboot have to be woke and diversified. All old dudes really want is to look at some cuties fighting vampires.
>>218628662>BUT MUH DICKOK, creep
>>218628702Boomer White Males are a coveted demographic, ya woketard. Because unlike you, we actually have families of kids and money to spend.Wasn't the first woke project we had killed. And it won't be the last. Woke is dead, bitch.
>>218628741>I hate woke but also give me 90s girl power teen drama revival please!
>>218628773I dare you to make another woke reboot of a boomer IP. We'll let you get hyped that you killed another franchise with wokeness. And then we'll rip the red carpet out from under your feet!Your kind is dead. Your cause is dead. Wokeness is dead. The future is now. And DEIs like you are NOT a part of it.
>>218628212Yeah this is what I still don't get. Trump is clearly a corrupt retard. But democrat politics became so oppressive, obnoxious, and nonsensical that the majority of people preferred to elect a diaper-wearing retard who shits himself. It happened when they tried to run Hillary, they didn't learn their lesson, and actually tried AGAIN with Kamala of all people.
>>218629318Stay on topic, bitch
>>218612449>rebootnot a reboot, fucking idiot. it's a sequel
>>218615536Buffy would actually work really well with a new series every 20 years since there's supposed there's supposed to be a slayer all the timeit's much better than just reboot scrubs or malcom in the middle with the same characters
>>218613188This bit of the script doesn’t reveal tone or context so it could’ve been a dunk on her meant to be ironic. Typical retarded anons can’t see subtext to save their lives yet spend 60% of their time bitching about woke.
>>218627719>everything Taylor Sheridan has ever doneHe makes hicklib content.
>>218627274Wow, it's almost as if celebrities are and always have been trash, huh? Also posting the woman best known for having a smoking hot pure white daughter who mogs her disgusting mongrel children into oblivion is one hell of a self-own.
I had doubts about it being good, but the leaked script (which by all accounts is not what they shot) being middling or shitty doesn't discount anything she says. Even the actual finished pilot being shit means nothing. Hulu has produced far worse. All this board of degenerate masturbators does is gargle semen and call things slop. When has something being shit ever stopped them? A Buffy sequel had guaranteed eyeballs, whether it was good or not. Gellar has (almost) always been pretty conservative with PR, so I doubt she's talking out of her ass even if she is angry. I can believe there might be more to this than she's letting on (like creative discord about the trajectory or mission of the show, or budget) but I highly doubt this executive is a savvy tastemaker rescuing the brand. It's fucking Hulu. They made Alien: Earth.
What did this Chloe Zhao do before? Eternals movie? If new Buffy would be anything like Eternals then it definitely should not see the light of day.
>>218612385I wonder how much cock Sarah Michelle Gaper sucked n fucked back in the day, in exchange for all the fame.
>>218629503>it could’ve been a dunk on her meant to be ironic
this is a good thingit's dumb that it was set in sunydale again with buffy returningthey could have put it wherever they want with a completely new style and cast e.g. a goth slayer in new york (idk i'm not a creative)bringing back buffy just means nostalgia instead of a good new show/idea
>>218629962She has done two Oscar winning movies.
>>218612385maybe should've gotten whedon involved? you know, the guy that created buffy and made it a huge success... just a thought
>>218629421It's a reboot and a sequel, retard. New protagonist, new characters, with ONE returning legacy character, Buffy.
lol, you should thank this man, we dodged a bullet with this new show.
>>218630184>she makes oscarslopThat's not a good thing.
>>218612449kinda based, hopefully they do the same for X Files

>>218612385Spike and Buffy shippers are so happy with this news, apparently because Sarah was a hardcore Angel/Buffy shipper lol

>>218612616did they ever do anything with the 30 slayers? (and every woman in the world now being a potential) didn't Whedon killed them all in the comic books?
>>218633223Haha
>>218612385Yeah apparently he'd told them beforehand he proudly never watched the original show and that it wasn't his taste.I can't tell if ignorant boomer who looks down on genre television or boomer who's idea of TV is cop procedurals and medical shows
I bet you she will be begging for an Angel reboot and try to cling onto that.
>>218637291But his actor is doing a new Rockford Files, which, if I wanted to watch The Rockford Files, I'd just watch the 70s one
Critical Drinker said good riddance to bad rubbishHe's the voice of /tv/
>>218637235That's what they claim. Doesn't make it true.
>>218632156Mr Burke "dad jokes" Le Magister
>>218612449fpbp there is 0 (zero) chance this would've been good
>>218612385Okay guys i'll come clean, it was actually me who axed the show. [[they]] promised me that the show would star Michelle Trachtenberg, and that as executive producer I could easily molest her backstage. But then the bitch fucking died from drinking too much to cope with getting molested by Whedon in the 90s. So I fucking axed the show. No Trachtenpussy? no show!
>>218612385Good, the original show was for women and faggots.
>>218612385The way i understand what she´s saying is that the exec probably wanted something that worked on it´s own to attract new audiences rather than depend on having to watch 7 seasons before diving in. This is an understandable and reasonable concern for a soulless suit that just wants a return on it´s investment.That said that´s certainly not what the fans would want. The established audience would want the old crew back after a time skip and would be willing on compromising by introducing a new slayer for the new generation and the action stuff while keeping SMG as the one and only Buffy. Sure enough it would have been preferable if everyone could have acted as adults and Joss had been included as well but i guess there is enough bad blood for that to be possible. True enough it could have been disastrous but at the same time it´s the only way to do this. You need SMG or you have no show. It´s that simple. If what she says is true, and i want to believe it is, then i´d side with her over a random suit trying to tick boxes. She has more reasons to want this to succeed since for her it´s not just about money, she would be making a come back on the role that made her. That´s priceless for an actor. Also the new slayer looked good. I´ve seen her on that show with Ethan Hawke. I´m really not interested on a full reboot though.
>>218640886That's the problem, revivals are hot but with an IP like Buffy, a creator as controversial as Joss Whedon, and a company with suits obsessed with finding a "modern audience" where there isn't one, and Disney being Disney they probably want their own version of it, their own Buffy that's under their creative oversight so it wouldn't shock me if the suits retardedly thought it was exactly that - a full reboot where SMG "cameos" but instead got a legacy sequel.The next time we hear about this it's probably gonna be they're doing a remake.
>>218640886Anon, no one gives a fuck what Buffy fans want. They make believe the show was bigger than it ever was. Reality is the only reason it wasn't cancelled early on is Fox was willing to eat losses. Anywhere else it never would have gone past 2 seasons. The new show would have to build its own audience, not rely on Xillennials and 90s nostalgia. The guy being a fan of the OG show or not is irrelevant if for no other reason than the people working on it are not who created the original show. At best it would be aping it. That's what the leaked script suggests. It's just the same story beats as Welcome to the Hellmouth in much the same order. In this circumstance, yeah, I'll take the opinion of a suit over SMG. Her track record for what is good and is pretty fucking bad.
>>218641176>Fox was willing to eat losses.Anon the show aired on WB and it was in fact, one of their best performers, Fox just owns the rights. Fox didn't have a single thing to do except collect that sweet license money But you are right, CBS, ABC, NBC, those places would not be as kind to the show as WB was.
>>218641381>i have no idea what the fuck i'm talking about, the postNo, anon, Fox paid for the show. The WB/UPN paid Fox for the rights to air the show. After S5, Fox demanded more money because what the WB was paying in license fees did not cover the cost of production. WB did not want to pay. UPN offered more. That is why it moved networks. For a board dedicated to /tv/, you fags are pretty clueless about how things actually work.
>>218612385he's guarding the lore
>>218641471>For a board dedicated to /tv/, you fags are pretty clueless about how things actually work.calm down
>>218641176Fox only owns the rights, they had fuck all to do with production which was handled by Warner Bros.Warner did yes, almost cancel the show several times, Angel was greenlit literally in case BTVS needed a replacement, what didn't help matters was Joss kept repeatedly going overbudget on random episodes
>>218641471>what the WB was paying in license fees did not cover the cost of production Blame that squarely on Whedon who loved spending money like a retard. I get it was his passion project but there's multiple episodes notorious for Joss blowing their respective budgets on really stupid shit
>>218641646>Fox only owns the rights, they had fuck all to do with production which was handled by Warner Bros.whatever gave you that idea20th century fox television was the studio
>>218612385>jewnose coming back decades after a nose jobfascinating
>>218641176Anon studios notoriously love milking themselves nostalgia, that's why they brought back The X-Files, twice. Three times if you're counting the current Ryan Coogler reboot that's likely a full continuity reboot
>>218641646>still doesn't knowHere's a book you can read detailing how the show was made right from the people making it. >https://www.amazon.com/Season-Finale-Unexpected-Rise-Fall/dp/0061340995Fox literally paid for the fucking thing, anon. They even paid the actors and gave them raises when they asked;
>>218641892>that's likely a full continuity rebootThat kills the chance of milking it for nostalgia if they start over from scratch and act like Mulder & Scully never existed
>>218641892>that's why they brought back The X-Files, twiceHow'd that pan out? Buffy was nowhere near the level of X-Files. It was never a money maker for the company which is why they've never really given a shit about it. You ever wonder why they never bothered a decent remaster or bluray release if it's so popular?
>>218642042Has 90s nostalgia ever really worked so far?
>>218641135We´ve seen that happen too many times already but they never seem to learn. >>218641176When you are making a legacy/sequel show you do so to capitalize on the brand name and the existing audience... that´s far easier and faster than building a new audience from scratch. The shows die awfully quick only when those expectations are betrayed, which arguably is every single time these days. Just take a look at every IP that´s been appropriated and repurposed. All those big names that couldn´t possibly fail actually failing are proof that building an audience from zero is not enough. Like it or not you need the old fans or enough quality seasons to actually build the new audience. Buffy started as this last minute rushed show that was only greenlit because some other show got axed. It took it years to build it´s audience and become big. And we are talking of 24 episode a season years, not 8 episodes every 2 years seasons.
>>218642148>When you are making a legacy/sequel show you do so to capitalize on the brand name and the existing audience...The existing audience is mall, anon, and a significant portion has no interest in a revival. Using this IP as an example, it would be like making Angel and then saying having Buffy is required. In fact, it worked the opposite. Angel never got going until it divested itself from Buffy. Same deal here. You rely on nostalgia if you want a short series. If you want to build a new kind of thing, you have to focus more on the new worldbuilding.
>>218642322>You rely on nostalgia if you want a short series.That's why revivals shouldn't be treated as new seasons, but instead like miniseries that just happens to be their sequel
>>218642496I can agree with that, but this was meant to be a whole new long-running show.
>>218629421Soft reboot. A nod to the old guard then off doing whatever they want. Buffy was camp and weird while also taking itself seriously. There's zero chance that this REBOOT would be able to capture the vibe, it'd be a MODERN AUDIENCES slopfest.
Bufffy was at the last page of the Buffy reboot pilot original script. Pro Tip…if you’re gonna’ reboot Buffy, how about, you know, rebooting Buffy? Nobody cares about the new Scooby gang, you know.
>>218642148>but they never seem to learn.I'll laugh my ass off when they do decide to make their own new and "improved" version.There's plenty of shows that can be revived with someone new at the helm if they're familiar with the property or genre and if you bring in some older writers. The problem with Buffy the Vampire Slayer is that the show is unequivocally Joss Whedon's voice, and despite his many imitators they don't have his particular skills and talents Star Trek survived the 90s without Gene Roddenberry, and that had to be taken away from him to thrive.
>>218642731This is why I have no faith in Coongler's X-Files, nobody will give a fuck about the New agents, they've twice tried replacing the original leads and it's always fucking failed.The problem is they do these legacy sequels with the intent of tossing away the main draw of the revival, you can do spinoffs with new characters but having them originate from revivals carries a certain stink to it
>>218642322Angel started up as a show that was trying to be 2 different things and was neither. On one side it wanted to be this supernatural PI agency show with it´s own identity (with Kate, Doyle, Lindsay, Lilah and all that) but on the other it certainly capitalized on the elements it carried over from Buffy like Angel´s back story. In the end Kate and Doyle were both phased out in favor of Cordelia, Weasley, Darla, Spike, Drusilla and Faith. yes, it stopped having the direct Buffy cameos but to say it stopped leaning on Buffy would be bluntly wrong. If anything it eventually succeeded because of how it built around all those elements that were carried over. Cordelia, Weasley and Faith had some of the greatest character arcs in television history but that´s mostly if you knew who they started out as on Buffy.Many shows tried to imitate Buffy and Angel narrative structures and balance over the years with varying degrees of success. Some outlived them, some did reasonably well, some derailed and some were a fucking embarrassment so i´m not saying it´s impossible, just saying building from zero is a bigger risk.
>>218612616Based Trump killing kino
>>218643056I think Angel's first season is its best, honestly.
>>218643056Cordy and Wes were included pretty much from the jump. Neither were major Buffy players, anon. Darla and Dru were tied to Angel and again, never major players. Spike was not brought in until S5 to try to boost ratings. And it failed. In S2, Angel got rid of all that shit. No more Buffy cameos, no more Faith, no more Oz. And it took off. >>218642731Supposedly they did a rewrite to include more Buffy and make it more mature.
>>218643228>more matureI see that and I have an idea in my head what that looks like, but knowing current writers that just screams "We added lots of swear words" because these people have the same understanding of maturity as edgy teenagers
>>218612385yeah, the one who bothered to read the script.
>>218616845Me
>>218643228You´d have to define major players though. Also Angel got cancelled because Joss fucked up and demanded the suits renew the show early. It was still pretty popular when it was axed, some even say it was at the peak of it´s popularity (which i doubt)
>>218612385Nobody likes to admit it, but you always need at least one person in the room who can act as the token normalfag who isn't a rabid fan of the series.Glup shittos exist because these people aren't present to say how fucking stupid they are to people who don't get the reference.
>>218643624>(which i doubt)You should because it's bullshit. At the time it was cancelled the ratings were below even S4. It's just total make believe. Buffy's major players are pretty self-evident, anon. Buffy, Willow, Xander, Giles and Oz to a lesser extent. All the major cameos are in S1. Faith does reappear in S4 but that was more due to needing to bring her back for the Buffy finale. Again, none of this boosted the ratings.
>>218643624It was regularly doing outdoing Smallville which was considered the big replacement for Buffy
>>218643170I occasionally think about rewatching Angel but then I remember they did an entire season devoted to an interracial cuckolding triangle and I’m out
>>218643228Also where does this notion that Angel is darker come from? There's the same humor sensibilities as Buffy, it's not even that marginally more serious
>>218612616I love how these troon dorks still think they're some sort of underground resistance movement and they're heroic struggle is being able to consume the correct slop at the appropriate dosage
>>218644159But anon, they always treated Fred & Gunn like it was never going to work out and that the real best man for Fred is Wes Then they kill her, replace her with Illyria, and then Angel fucks Illyria
>>218644225It's just something that keeps getting repeated so people assume it's true. I think compared to S1-S3, it's a fair assessment. Compared to 5-7, I don't think it holds up.
>>218643954Well off course the main cast were not going to leave the main show but even as supporting characters i wouldn´t call neigher Wes nor Cordy irrelevant. Weasley was directly tied to Fatih so even if Faith role was far more important his role as part of her arc is pretty relevant. Furthermore many supporting cast members are responsible for some of the best episodes on the show. Cordelia is central for The wish while Joyce was central for the body, which along with Hush are usually regarded as some of the best episodes on the whole show. Recurrent supporting characters that are fleshed out may not be absolutely needed for the show to work but god, as they say, is on the details. Specially on shows like Buffy and Angel which biggest strength was character development.
>>218612385A MAN DID THIS? BUT IM A MAN SO THIS MUST BE AN ATTACK ON ME IM SO UPSET RIGHT NOW AND WILL BE FOREVER
>>218612616Who the hell watches Inside Out as a therapy?
>>218644770You forget what decade you're living in?
>>218612449I just wanted to see that sexy teenage girl Ryan slut it up but these damn JEWS take everything with me.
>>218644317That makes it all the more grotesque. Wes was derelict of his duty to “correct” her
>>218644725More like: A MAN DID THIS? NOW I HATE ALL MEN FOREVER WHY ARE MEN SO EVIL!!!1one
good
>>218616433um sweaty its creepy when a MAN creates a robot girlfriend. a WOMAN having a robot boyfriend is not. i can't believe I have to explain this to you educate yourself i'm not here to educate you. do the work.
>>218644969The general consensus. RKA is a decent pick for a slayer, but I trust nothing with the creative team involved. A couple retarded women writers, a washed up actress and a woo-woo nepo baby pretentious director. Not the ingredients good show.
>>218645112>*for a good show
>>218612385>We had an executive on our show who was not only not a fan of the original, but was proud to constantly remind us that he had never seen the entirety of the series and how it wasn't for himoh man that must suck, sounds like a problem unique to Buffy that never happened to any other franchise before
>>218624851>A female protagonist with no body builder physique beating up men
What a hero. Save the world from shitty reboots any chance you get
>>218644887It's not like Wes could do anything at the last point considering he's dead and trapped in Hell
>>218645053You know, that's fair, I forgot that aspect.
They should've just made a Wesley show
>>218644845i feel you brother, ephebophiles are the most persecuted race on earth
>>218612385How smart am I? Without knowing nothing about the script or behind the scenes stuff, always knew they Big problem will be the lack of Buffy. I feel so proud of myself.
But what about my great comeback?
