You say SMG has been noted for how hard she works on the show? well she’s been noted for how little publicity she did for the show as well and that she wasn’t very friendly with other cast mates. I don’t know whether any of it is true, and neither do you.
Everyone is free to draw their own conclusions and everything that has been said so far is merely a conclusion, not fact. Unless you personally know SMG on a very intimate bases you cannot possibly know what the true situation is. What i do know is that SMG is an actor, not a saint or a god, therefore people are allowed to say negative things about her, and of course other people are allowed to reject those negative things and say positive things but guess what, everyone deserves to be able to say what they want about her.
Making personal attacks on people who say negative things about SMG doesn’t make your position stronger, in fact it may weaken it because you may across as blindly loyal with no level of objectivity. Express your opinion, fine, but stick to the argument rather than depending on the "yeah well you smell" strategy.
I love BTVS and i love SMG as Buffy but i still wish she had done some stuff for the specials on the dvds, and yes i appreciate that "apparantly" she pulled 18 hour days (although i think that the accuracy of that is to be questioned people normally cannot operate on the maximum 4 or so hours sleep that would have been open to her), but remember people she got recompensed for her time a lot more than most people, probably more per day than most people get per month, so i’m not offering my sympathy there.
