Buffy Season 8 Confirmed !!!!!!! But Not On TV...

Thursday 28 October 2004, by Webmaster

IN COMIC BOOK !!!!!!!! Jane Espenson has been interviewed by the website Mikejozic.com

MIKE JOZIC : Have you spoken with Scott Allie about doing any more comic book projects in the near future?

JANE ESPENSON : I have. Scott has been very eager for Joss Whedon and me to work on new books that take the Buffy saga beyond the end of the show. And just in the last week, Joss and I have begun talking about starting the conceptual work on this. It’s early days, but I think this will happen.

    YEs!!! I couldn;t understand why the book series and comics didn’t already do this! My one hope is that they do their best to make it "canon" - i.e. base it one planned Season 8 stories (what they had of them) AND also on what we know to have happened to the Scooby Gang via Angel (i.e. the initial split of the gang to hunt worldwide for new slayers, Buffy’s move to Rome and dating of the immortal, and I’m assuming eventual getting back together of the gang (like when Andrew was in Rome with Dawn and Buffy, and presumably later when Willow went to Tibet and projected to the Astral plane...at least I’m hoping that was a "group" adventure and sounds like a stunning "beginning of the build up to the end of what would have been season 8". :-) Come on guys - do it well and like the real series, and if the proposed movies take off, how about they pick up from the comics/books (I prefer books myself - more detail), or at the very do not contradict them horribly so we find the Buffy & Pals we’ve been following are an "alternate universe" version or something cheesy like that. You have a unique fan base with the Buffy/Angel-verse - we have high expectations and expect the highest quality storytelling (because we were spoiled by both series!). I can’t wait!!! :-) NewtonDKC@msn.com

    That doesn’t mean that a TV season 8 was confirmed. It means that the books’ "seasons" were confirmed. There’ll be more books.

    wow. nice way to fool us with that title. some people might not be as bright of me, and be expecting an actual season eight...

    i’m waiting for an alternate season seven with an alternate end of season six in which tara doesn’t die. other than that, well, i don’t care much.

    but thanks for being confusing with that title. :-)

    They’re actually comic books, not novel books.

    The title of this article is very misleading. I think you should have put "Season 8: Novels confirmed"

    firstly MEAN making me read that title, along with evry1 else. and secondly NO NO NO! Buffy finished on such a gr8 note, y ruin it by starting season 8 in book form. it was a TV show, u can’t go from a gr8 Tv show and end it with a book (or series of) it’s just a bad idea. i for one will definatley not be reading the books. ok so i probably will but i wont be happy about it.

    Joss has been talking about bringing the Buffyverse back into the Dark Horse comics for a while. Thought that was basic knowledge. I know I have seen other articles about it. There was one where they wanted to continue the BtVS and Angel comic but not for sure how that article went. The Talee of the slayers wan great. So was Tales of the Vampires. Be Cool

    Hi Buffy & Family.... Please go back on tv...I absolutely adore your show...it is my very favorite...can’t you put season 8 on tv? I know Sarah had said something in one of her earlier comments that she might be getting a little older to be Buffy...but that’s not true! Buffy..Sarah..you are as beautiful as ever and I wish you and Spike could have more of a relationship. I know he died in the last season, but surely he can come back...how many times has Buffy come back. I love you all....thank you for the best show on television! Also please don’t let fx stop showing the episodes...I record what I can on my cable dvr, but they are erased after a while and I haven’t been able to affored to buy your dvds. Which I am saving money to do that...my very favorite of all shows was or is the "Once More With Feeling" All of you did a fabulous job. I also have a confession...I am 48, woman, disabled, but I am in love in James Marsters. I would give anything just to see him or be able to e-mail him. I think I am really crazy in Love with him. I know you think I’m a big kid...but I love him! Sarah I also love everyone on the show and I have watched you along with the others grow into amazing group. From a loyal Fan, Karen

    p.s. Could you tell James(Spike) that he has a woman in North Carolina that is madly, truly from the heart...in Love with Him. Ask him to e-mail me...that would make my days of all days.

  • Karen you do know that Spike came back on Angel right?? He’s not dead... well unless that’s what happened when they (WB bastards)canceled the show...

    No, I have not seen Spike on the Angel show. But I must admit I don’t watch that as much as I do Buffy. Thank you for your reply. I will watch more of Angel now, but I still love Spike and I wish that Buffy could come back on tv with more of a relationship with Spike. Angel had the relationship with Cordelia. Seems like Buffy could last longer...we all love her so much. I also love James with his new hair cut...I prefer the blond..but he is still the most sexy, handsome man out there! Thank you again... Loving Fan, Karen

YYyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssssssssss!!! ::Crys tears of joy...the loud dramatic kind with much vigor and self loathing of myself, not to mention people in m novanet class are looking at me oddly for screaming while on my knees infront of a computer:: I love Joss and Jane. If I could I would marry them...::Looks around twitchitive:: " I am not obsessive and I do not stand outside Joss Whedons window staring in at him...probably because I’m in Texas....heh...heh...Aah, nah. I just have much respect for the people of Buffy and Angel. I’m just happy and excited about this peice of information floating around the web.

    Thank You PTBs, I guess I will go back to reading comic books. Of course, at this stage of my life, they’ll all swear I am in my second childhood.

    I am so excited for the new season of buffy. I have been wondering what happened to the group and what they would do after sunnydale and now i finally can. I also hope for at least this last season angel will come back or make an appearance beacause i think buffy and angel were so great together. That would top off the season, like a cherry on top.

    Either I’m stupid or everyone else is but did you really think there would be a season 8 when both SMG and Joss said they wanted to end it while they were on top? I guess I don’t understand why people would think this was going to be on TV... considering the title said "Buffy Season 8 Confirmed !!!!!!! But Not On TV...". You gotta read the whole title before you start going psycho.
