Sarah Michelle Gellar

Sarah Michelle Gellar is considering coming back to television !?

Thursday 29 November 2007, by Webmaster

Here’s a little news to make you fellow Buffy fans squeal.

Sources close to the lovely Sarah Michelle Gellar tell me she’s become somewhat disenchanted with the movie scripts she’s been receiving, so she’s considering...wait for it...coming back to television.

Boo-freaking-yah.

Word is, Sarah’s been looking at various TV scripts and weighing her options. And you know what that means, my friends? With any luck, when the strike ends, we could have Joss Whedon and Sarah Michelle Gellar both back in our lovely small-screen world!

Wonder if she’s asked Joss to send her the treatment for Dollhouse? Yeah...probably not. That’d be far too good to be true. But still, here’s hoping we get to see Gellar in our living rooms again sometime soon!

What do you say?

  • Is it too much to hope that with this news, the phenomenal success of the Buffy Season 8 Comic (which alone should prove how much interest there still is in the Buffyverse and the many 12 dimensional characters contained within it) and the apparent availability of Joss that we could possibly get a one-off (or even a couple) Buffyverse TV Movies (TV Specials, whatever you want to call them!)? I mean come on, who wouldn’t want to catch up with our old pals and see where they are now? And sure, the comic is doing that, but an actual Movie - or heck, even a miniseries - surely would be welcome by everyone? And as popular as the comic is - just think how many people would watch a return to Sunnyda- err, a return to the Buffyverse!!!

    Seriously, I think Joss should approach the CW about a miniseries - maybe 3 nights, 2 hours each night - to tell the tale of whatever horrendous horror is threatening the world and bringing Buffy, Willow (especially Willow - she my favorite character EVER!), Xander, Giles, Dawnie and the rest of the gang back to fighting form! It’d be excellent in this rather hum drum season (or the next with time to make it of course). And the $$$ from the DVD Sales would undoubtedly break records, of that I have no doubt. And it’d be the perfect platform for launching the fantastically long overdue Buffyverse spin off, as well as Ripper on the BBC! As for a traditional spin off - as long as it is set in the Buffyverse - with the physics and rules and mythos and monsters we became so vested in with Buffy and Angel, then I have every faith () that Joss and his gang of superb writers (which he’d need to round up of course!) could even bring us a whole new gang of misfits and spoiled brats and streetsmart and nerdy geeks that all of us would identify with, and take us on a new journey in a bizarre but familiar world. We need our return to this ’verse - and I think every generation should have their own "Scooby Gang" to grow up with (seriously! It’s like necessity people!!!). :-)

  • Just because she might return to Television - doesn’t mean that she’s be starring in a series. After all - with all the channels there currently are on TV (thru cable & sats)- these lots of "TV" movies done ever year.

    But personally - I would to love see her re-team with Joss, and the gang to do a Buffy/Angel movie or mini-series. That would be AWESOME. Just what all Buffy/Angel fans want. ;)

    yessssss please to Sarah! in anything!!!!!!!!!
  • Personally, I’m sick of Sarah Michelle Gellar, so I don’t care one way or the other if she comes back to TV. There - I said it!
  • It doesn’t matter to me either way. Just do not bring back the Buffy/Angel scenario. That is long gone, out of people’s minds. It is a treasure trove of memories that should not be exploited, manhandled, altered or rehashed in any way. I like to dream of DB as he is now. And Sarah will no longer have the ooomph she did while performing Buffy. It would b e a letdown. So let her do a half hour series each week. But not reprise the Buffy role, ppllllleeeeeeassse.
  • Hmm knowing the Dushku is busy with Dollhouse in the near future that rules out a Faith appearance, so I can safely say Buffy ain’t no fun for me without Faith also making an appearance. It would however be interesting to see SMG in something else, after all, there wasn’t much Mulder in Californication, you are only as typecast as you believe yourself to be.
  • very interesting.i thought she said she would never return to a tv series..david said the same thing..but then he found "BONES"...wonder what has tempted sarah to dabble into a tv series again..Must be big thats all I can say...Either that or all this is Fake.
