Anya
Bandwagon

Emma Caulfield (Anya) starred in, and was co-executive producer of, the movie Bandwagon in 2004. The movie is a tongue-in-cheek look at Emma’s efforts post-Buffy (though Emma plays an exagerated version of herself). The movie also features Buffy people Joss Whedon, David Fury and Tom Lenk (Andrew). Bandwagon won the …

Fury on Harris

David Fury said that when Harris Yulin returned to play Quentin Travers in Checkpoint, he had a goatee beard. Buffy producers felt that the beard wasn’t really something that Quentin would have, but they were too intimidated by the famous actor to ask him to shave it off.

Marti on the end of season six

Marti Noxon had the following to say about the end of season six:
“It was the first season climax that Joss did not write and direct. There were some production problems. I was massively pregnant at that point and a little slow on my feet, so it wasn’t as easy-going …

Spike
Marti on Spike’s beating

Marti Noxon said about the episode Dead Things:
“It got so dark and so intense, and even darker still when Buffy beats the hell out of Spike. Some people had a real hard time with that, and I understand where they’re coming from. We just went to a real dark place, …

Buffy
Marti on the penis monster

Marti Noxon said the following about the episode Doublemeat Palace:
“One of the craziest episodes we’ve ever done. It’s just insane. And the monster looks like a penis - we know that! Talk about the academic papers that are going to be written about that one! The castration fantasy made large. …

Marti on invisible sex

Marti Noxon said about the episode Gone:
“The bit when Spike seems to be by himself when, in fact, he was having sex with the invisible Buffy was something that Joss and David Fury got all excited about, whereas I was like ‘Ewww!’ It was disturbing to me; it still …

Spike
Marti on Buffy and Spike

Marti Noxon had the following to say about the episode Smashed:
“This was the beginning of the most divisive story we’ve ever had, which was Buffy and Spike boning. Really, I’ve never seen such a strong reaction on both sides. People either love it or hate it. To this day, people …

Marti on Giles leaving

Marti Noxon said about the episode Tabula Rasa:
“One criticism we received about the episode was the fact that Giles left even after knowing what Buffy had been through. We tried to make it clear that he began to believe that she couldn’t take responsibility with him there; we really tried …

Dawn
Marti on Dawn’s romance

Marti Noxon said of the episode All the Way:
“That one was interesting, but there were two things wrong with it. The romance between Dawn and the vampire never took off. We’d hoped it would be bittersweet, but they didn’t quite make the connection. So in some ways it wasn’t quite …

Marti on Buffy’s bills

Marti Noxon said about the episode Flooded:
“It’s not that exciting to watch Buffy deal with bills. The show is not called ‘Buffy The Debt Collector’ or ‘Buffy The Credit Card User’. So I guess we started toying with adult responsibilities and then decided we’d have to go the way of …

Marti on Buffy and Riley

Marti Noxon, who wrote and directed the episode Into the Woods, in which Riley leaves Buffy, said about Riley’s departure:
“Sunnydale romance just rarely goes well. Buffy with a boyfriend is not as interesting as Buffy in some kind of romantic strife. Riley, by his nature, was such a good …
