It has been nearly five years since that fateful May night when BTVS fans witnessed the end of their beloved TV series. The following years, fans have intently watched as their favorite characters have branched off to new projects, leaving little hope of a BTVS movie, which so many “Buffy” lovers have longed and hoped for. Unfortunately, there are still no concrete plans of a movie, but fans have the Paley Center for Media (formerly the Museum of Television and Radio) to be eternally grateful to—they have announced a Buffy the Vampire Slayer reunion on Thursday, March 20th at the historic Cinerama Dome in Hollywood, CA!

UPDATE:  No Charisma Carpenter for ‘The Apprentice’

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Drama, Prime Time, Reality, ABC, FOX, NBC, Apprentice, The - Donald

Okay, Buffy fans—I have some good news and bad news to report.

Bad news first.  Despite their earlier report, TV Guide now says Charisma Carpenter will not be participating in the upcoming season of The Apprentice.

The good news?  Carpenter actually has better jobs lined up for herself.  In addition to a one-episode stint on Fox’s Back to You, she’ll have a recurring role on the new ABC drama, Big Shots.

Assuming Big Shots even lasts that long—you can expect Charisma’s run to start November 1.

‘Buffy’ Star On Board For Celebrity Apprentice

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, NBC, Apprentice, The - Donald, Renewals

While it’s doubtful a retooling of The Apprentice could bring back Season One ratings, NBC keeps plugging away on next season’s production.  As reported, Donald Trump will be pulling a stunt out of the VH1 bag of tricks for his next outing. This time around, the apprentice pool will be comprised of camera-desperate celebrities.  (What exactly would they win anyway? The chance to stay for free at his next hotel?)

For Joss Whedon fans, this ratings ploy may give them at least one thing to care about:  Charisma Carpenter.  According to TV Guide, the Buffy the Vampire Slayer star will be competing to get in Trump’s good graces.  Given Donald’s inappropriate tendency to comment on his ‘attractive’ candidates, Carpenter (also a former Playboy subject) could make it far in the competition.  But I’m just hoping her inner-Cordelia will surface to kick monster butt the next time he makes a creepy remark about his daughter.
