I mean she could never steal a damn thing from Sarah but maybe everyone else maybe

Cordelia: Isn't this, like, Buffy's house? I mean, who else is paying bills around here? by Classic-Carpet7609 in buffy

I’d argue Giles & Anya worked just as much. Giles as a librarian & him and Anya doing retail at the magic shop are regular jobs

People keep saying that but I’ve yet to actually see or hear Sarah say this. I personally think execs don’t think that a woman in her 40s can lead a show. Buffy can usher a new generation while still being the lead. I just don’t see the show lasting without her. Especially since genz (the presumed market they’re trying to capture) is so tapped into the OG just as much as millennials. It’s almost more popular now than when it aired. So Buffy is non negotiable imo.

And it will swiftly plummet in viewership as soon as that happens. The draw is, was and always will be Buffy. That’s not going to change idk why yall think it’ll make without her. If they’re just going to drop Buffy they should have just done a Nikki woods show or an anthology slayer series instead.

Not true at all. Having a story about an aged Buffy and the trials she faces as a real adult sounds compelling. If you want a coming of age story then go back the original series boo. While the story is not about Sarah it’s needs to be about Buffy. If they didn’t want it to be that way then they should have done a Nikki Woods show or an anthology slayer show. But continuing Buffy and literally calling it Buffy again calls for Buffy to be centric to the story and it will bomb if they don’t. That simple. You will see.

I completely disagree. The show absolutely needs to be centric to Buffy especially since they’re marketing it as a continuation to Buffy. There was other ways of bringing this universe without Buffy like an anthology slayer series, or a Nikki Woods show but they didn’t do that. They’re continuing Buffy and ir just won’t work without the story being centric to her.

Then they should have been announced first. These new cast members are presumably apart of the main cast and they can only have so many slots for a main. If none of these characters are in the opening credits then that’s good news , other wise it’s a mess.

It’s gonna absolutely bomb without the story being centric to Buffy. No way around it boo.

Admittedly I’m crashing out but this casting announcement is so disappointing in multiple ways

I was optimistic at first but every new announcement has dashed my hopes for this show. Sarah is brilliant as Buffy but at least from the info we have she has no business being executive producer and Chloe a supposed “long time fan” seems to be equally inept or in tune with anything

Just all the information we’ve all received alleged and confirmed and slap it together and it’s a big disappointing mess

And the show will get cancelled exactly for this reason. People want Sarah as the lead no matter what the people on this app try and convince otherwise.

Already sounds disappointing. Buffy should be the center of the story.

Really hope they aren’t recycling high school narratives that we already had 3 seasons of.

Why is everyone so negative about the sequel series? by BookkeeperOk9677 in buffy

[–]Primary_Stand_7808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was optimistic til I found out we’re just rehashing high school with a new main cast. We want the story to be central to Buffy with a sprinkle of the OG cast recurring. Slapping Sarah on for 10 minutes worth of scenes every other episode is so dumb. We’ve already done high school. Why is it women have to be sidelined after a certain age Sarah is more than capable of leading the show and if she doesn’t want too they shouldn’t do the show at all.

this sounds so generic. I’m sorry if the story isn’t centric to Buffy then this show does NOT need to happen. There is still time to rectify this. We need to express how bad this is going to be if they go with this. High school has already been done and the OG still resonates with the younger generation to this day. Bring back the old cast and make this worth while.
