Since it's a slow Firefly news day, let's take a look at what's happening in Buffy's neighborhood.

This is from CNN:

Quote:


HOLLYWOOD, California (Variety) -- Sarah Michelle Gellar's done with "Buffy the Vampire Slayer."

The actress has confirmed to producer Joss Whedon something most industry insiders have assumed for months -- namely, that this season will be her last with the UPN series, according to people connected to the show.

Her departure also likely means "Buffy," at least in its current incarnation, will wrap in May, something that's also not much of a shocker, given the show's apocalyptic storylines this season.

Still to be decided: whether the producers and UPN will proceed with a new "Buffy" spinoff, or whether the franchise will simply end. WB Entertainment president Jordan Levin said Tuesday he's hopeful but not certain that "Angel," a "Buffy" spinoff launched in 1999, will be back next fall.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.


Just saw this at MSN:

Guess that is it. Wonder what will become of the show. They mentioned the possibility on Sci Wire ( I think ) that they may do a season centered around Faith.

"May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one."

Likes to mess with stuffs.


Except Eliza has signed with FOX to appear in a series of her own. So chances of Eliza taking over is slim at this point.

Oh God don't say that! Whedonless is a horrid word, I suggest we revoke it from the Firefly dictionary!

Can we all agree that Reality TV is the Anti-Whedon?

Call me nuts, but I've always thought of the Whedon shows as reality TV (once you whiddle away the sci-fi and fantasy trimmings, of course).

I prefer to think of the present day "Reality TV" craze as the "15 Minutes and Counting" craze.

Cash in now, honey!
