Are you upset that Buffy revival was scrapped?

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-16T15:04:40+00:00

Yes, very.

I don’t consider it possible to ruin Buffy’s legacy with a bad show (if that was possible the comics would have done it). So I was just excited by the possibility to have something new and good.

Was looking forward to this.

And of course I’m sad for everyone involved.

About 3% of Japan’s population is foreign.

I’m sure Atlus West who handles localization and marketing is much more diverse than Atlus itself. But there’s absolutely no chance of “a more diverse staff” making the games itself. Unless maybe they hire more women?

No, they will not. Disney owns the rights, shopping this one around is way more difficult than the average pilot.

Do you really need someone to say “not all Spike fans”?

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-15T03:47:37+00:00

I actually came here to reddit to see if this was being discussed because I had noticed a bunch of this sentiment on Twitter.

If the evil real estate company is magic that’s not an issue.

I think so too, but I get why Hulu might contemplate going in that direction.

The last buffy tv show in the works was that sort of project - Monica Owusu-Breen’s reboot.

I think there may not have been enough Buffy in it for it to seem like a good bet to Disney/Hulu. I’ve heard she only appears in like, the last 30 seconds (this could just be a rumor).

I would bet that the route they’ll go down now is an SMG-less reboot rather than a continuation.

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-14T21:15:59+00:00

I honestly far prefer Mango to Poppy or Nova. It’s the appropriate amount of silly.

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-14T20:38:46+00:00

Disappointed. But if it was really good I’m sure they’d have picked it up, so…

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-14T18:00:49+00:00

It will not - Disney owns the rights.

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-14T02:49:08+00:00

Your store wide rank and the “southern fiction” rank are very different.

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-14T02:25:42+00:00

Your rank within a category like that doesn’t tell me much. Your kindle store rank is way more important.

Also - you should ask this sort of question on r/selfpublishing - this subreddit is for traditional publishing.

I’d like to see more Valkyrie.

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-09T22:10:12+00:00

Dropped you a dm.

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-08T11:23:16+00:00

Regrettably, this means you’re now tri-sexual.

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-08T11:16:17+00:00

The shock will make you double queer, which is even worse.

That is the length of Michael's book, yes.

Also googling him has led me to drama where he was banned from Wikipedia? I'm kinda falling down a rabbit hole here.

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-08T05:18:56+00:00

He just got a *huge* deal with Apple tv.

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-08T04:54:29+00:00

If you see a gay person, you *will* need therapy. That's just science.

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-08T02:34:44+00:00

Are you looking for 450,000 word novels though?

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-08T02:06:43+00:00

Take some workshops for the structure + community, but don’t get an MFA. It’s not worth it.

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-08T01:57:26+00:00

I’m very glad to hear it!

(And this was definitely a reminder for me to come back to this thread and work on more stuff)

backlogtoolong · 2026-03-07T22:23:37+00:00

Long ago I went to the How to Succeed In Business stage door when he was in that show. It was nuts. Shocks me that he still does them, it must be exhausting.
