  Quote:Sarah Michelle Gellar will not be resurrecting Buffy the Vampire Slayer for Angel's swan song after all. As foreshadowed in this week's issue of TV Guide magazine (on sale now), the in-demand actress' busy schedule was a deal-breaker. But that's only half of the story.

  
  
  Use the link to read the whole article. I can't tell if this is a big spin so we won't know whether to really expect her or not, or if it is true.
  
  *sigh* they love to play games with us. It just isn't fair.

  The second last episode would've been ideal as an all-round pleaser I think. It could have told the rest of the story, without swamping the redemption (if it happens!) angle. But you're right, they might be playing with us. I rule nothing out.

  Interesting, and I think well handled by Joss. Having her appear in the final episode would take lots away from the regulars, which isn't fair.

  I must admit, though, I'd like to see her again. The thing I don't want however, is something like that scene in Soul Purpose with a blond wig! Or seeing Buffy walking away from behind or anything!

  The blonde wig and the pieced together dialog didn't bother me a bit. Personally, I wouldn't mind seeing something like that again, although I would rather see SMG in the flesh.
  
  Boomer, I just realized that I posted the title of this thread in a very spoilery way, and I shouldn't have. I should have tagged it as spoilers instead of spilling the beans in the title. Sorry about that, I'll try to do better next time. :anxious:
  
  Joss is handling it well though. I wouldn't want the end to be all about the love triangle, because as titillating as it has been, I have come to realize that Angel and Buffy must have the pure love in the end. It's the only pure love that either one of them have ever felt.
  
  Spike on the other hand, strikes me as still being able to love and still being able to fall in love. Angel can like, as in Cordelia and other potential sweetie-pies, but he can't really love anyone but Buffy. EVen the love he has for Connor is sort of skewed. Why does everyone who ANgel really loves try to kill him? Buffy, Conner, Spike, Darla, they've all given it a good try. :eek: I wonder if that means anything?

  Actually, you're fine, by my account. The fact that she's not appearing isn't a spoiler at all, so don't worry about it! If it gave away a plot point, then it would be, but it doesn't. It's like saying "they guy who sang about the mustard stain in Once More, With Feeling will not be appearing in the Angel finale." :laugh: See what I'm saying? No worries, buddy, no worries!

  One thing, however, a person not appearing is not a spoiler. However, a non regular Buffy/Angel member appearing in the final episodes may very well be. If you hear that someone's coming back for the final episodes please post it as a spoiler if it's not made known in episode previews released by the WB. We don't want to ruin the fun of the last few episodes, okay?
  
  Cool! Carry on, mes amis!
