I don't know exactly what the plotline for Tara was, because Joss was VERY careful not to say in the interview I read. I did see an intervew with Amber Benson where she said that she didn't come back because she wanted to protect fans' memories of Tara, so I assumed that she was being considered to come back as an incarnation of The First.

Okay everyone, I've got two good Buffy questions for you.

1)Around seasson 5 or 6, I read an interview where Joss discussed the possibility of having Britney Spears appear on Buffy. I don't know if he was joking or not, but he sounded kind of serious, and I've heard SMG and Britney are friends. Joss said that a lot of people didn't like the idea of Britney on the show, but, "you've got to trust me on this. There's a place for Britney in our world, and it's big."

Does anyone have any idea what he was talking about?? I'd LOVE to know.




The role of April, Warren's robot girlfriend, in "I Was Made to Love You" was originally written for Britney Spears to play. (Britney and Sarah are really good friends, and IWMLY was a sweeps ep.) Scheduling didn't work out, and Britney was never able to appear. The rumor that she was going to play a vampire in 6 eps of season 6 or 7 was complete bull.

2)I've read that Joss wrote six episodes of Roseanne. How can I find them?? I want to watch. Or at least read. They should be included as Easter Eggs on some future Joss Whedon DVD.



Joss was a staff writer during the last two seasons (I think) of Roseanne. The show's probably in syndicated reruns; check your local TV listings.

Bonus question:

Surprise there's actually three questions. Question # 3 is, what was the plotline that Joss was developing about Tara coming back in the end of season 7? Does anybody know? Any ideas?



Remember Cassie Newton's posthumous appearance in "Conversations With Dead People?" That was originally written with Tara. When Amber Benson refused to come on the show, because she wanted the fans' last memory of her character to be positive, the scenes were rewritten with Cassie.

I really hate saying this, but if Britany Spears agreed to appear on a few episodes of Angel next season, WB might not cancel it.

I must run away screaming now.

If you look here at the IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0923736/

you'll see that he wrote the episodes:
episode 2.04 "Somebody Stole My Gal"
episode 2.10 "Brain-Dead Poets Society"
episode 2.13 "Chicken Hearts"
episode 2.16 "Born to be Wild"
episode 2.17 "Hair"
episode 2.23 "Fathers and Daughters"

If you want info on each of these episodes, you can go to TV Tome: http://www.tvtome.com/Roseanne/eplist.html

Enjoy.

Hey.

Regarding Tara's return--I read in an interview with Joss, that yes, Tara was originally supposed to return as the First in CWDP. But THEN, Joss said he had this whole story planned, where the real Tara was going to return, and it was supposed to be beautiful and Willow and Tara were true loves, and that's what it was going to be all about. He said he used to cry in meetings when he pitched it.

And THEN, because of "behind the scenes" issues (*cough*), that couldn't happen, so he said that Willow's story was going to be about moving onto someone new, and hence, the hotness and bratiness of Kennedy. Which some didn't take to so well. Personal opinion? She was willing to fight and had a backbone, so I respected that. Though I'm digressing....;-) Ciao.
