      Hi Mel - where can I find this interview?

    2. Mel says:

      I have that many interviews that I have downloaded that I am not sure - I was watching some of the Buffy interviews that I have on my PC when I came across this one.

      I honestly don’t know where the clip was taken from or when Joss gave the interview.

      The file is in Quicktime and not too big I don’t think so I could mail it to you along with the one about the “breathe off” if you like.

      Sorry I can’t help more.

      Neatly summed up by Giles and Buffy with dialogue from the series:

      Giles: Dig a bit in the history of this place. You’ll find a, a steady stream of fairly odd occurrences. Now, I believe this whole area is a
      center of mystical energy, that things
      gravitate towards it that, that, that you might not find elsewhere.

      Welcome to the Hellmouth

      Buffy. There this thing that happens here, in this school, over the hell mouth. Where the way a thing feels—it kind of starts being that way…for real. I’ve seen all these things before…just not all at once.
