Insider info on the new buffy show

the comics are being completely ignored, no longer considered canon

25 years after buffy quit the watchers council, she and giles and her friends formed a new organization to support the many slayers worldwide that were activated at the end of season seven

no new slayers have been called since then and the youngest of those is now 40 years old

in the background, the watchers council, who were in charge of the fight against evil for thousands of years, quietly reformed and started rebuilding their sphere of influence in the old worlds of politics and ancient institutions

also in the years since the original show, sunnydale has been rebuilt, it's now called new sunnydale and is home to buffy's hq

in recent years, prior to the start of this new show, slayers have been dying in increasing numbers, with it eventually becoming clear that they're being intentionally assassinated by the watchers council, looking to wipe the slate clean and take back control of the line of slayers

the watchers council's footsoldiers are basically male slayers, no superpowers but trained from birth in slayer-style combat and weapons

one of these will defect from the council and be a love interest for ryan's character

there are still several slayers left, most of them in hiding, but when faith is assassinated the first new slayer in 20 years is activated

this is where the show starts

buffy arranges for the new slayer to be transferred to new sunnydale high so she can be protected and kept from the watchers council's influence

the hellmouth is still active despite the end of season 7 although basically reset to season 1 levels of demonic attraction

the central theme of the show is staying vigilent in the face of the patriarchy as it tries to claw back control of the culture and exert its power over women

i'm not directly working on the show but i've read the internal documents the production company has shared with hulu
ama

sounds kind of kino desu

MauLer and nerdortic aren't going to like this.

the central theme of the show is staying vigilent in the face of the patriarchy

Sounds like woke cuck nonsense, will not be watching. This is a new age; we don't put up with this trash anymore.

there are already 3 other threads about this.

Leave Buffy alone REEEEEEEEE

faith is assassinated

dropped with the utmost contempt

an entire generation of slayers across the entire world still fail to eradicate vampire demons and instead job to them

women are useless hahaha

honestly better than i thought they'd come up with

the central theme of the show is staying vigilent in the face of the patriarchy as it tries to claw back control of the culture and exert its power over women

Huh?

>the hellmouth is still active despite the end of season 7 although basically reset to season 1 levels of demonic attraction

Fuck this shit

No Trachtenberg, no care. No Dushku, double no care.

in a show about slayers vs mythical evil beasts, it's clear the true villain is men

Sounds like woke cuck nonsense

How?

dawn was a crap character and didn't show up until after the show had already turned to shit

insider info

What's Cordy's role then?

>the central theme of the show is staying vigilent in the face of the patriarchy as it tries to claw back control of the culture and exert its power over women

It's not even demons or vampires taking them out, it's just highly trained regular dudes.

What is even the point of slayers then?

What is even the point of slayers then?

holding up this fictional superhero tier outlier female as an example of how women are equal to men

one of these will defect from the council and be a love interest for ryan's character

I presume this is the black character

womyn trying to keep the world safe from monsters

straight white men trying to kill them for doing it without permission

sounds like straight white men to me, girlbros, am i right?

reminds me of the national womens soccer teams that lose to high schoolers.

the vampires and demons will team up with the slayers to defeat the evil white men

Didn't Buffy S4 establish that regular ass soldier dudes actually beat the fuck out of vampires and demons

I know at the end they fucked up because Adam was able to infiltrate their base but it felt like the whole premise of the series was undermined there because all the way through the season they were just flat out winning, guys with guns, tactics and numbers were wiping hell off the map
Then they basically just went "Yeah the Army decided it's going to bury this and never do anything about the supernatural again" so they could ignore how godamn effective they were, like nothing ever happened that actually disproved the concept, they were stomping monsters in the streets

goes back to buffy defeating the judge with a rocket launcher
"that was then, this is now"

is it monster of the week type episodes

The Initiative created Adam. Their whole problem was that while some of the soldiers were good guys who wanted to fight demons, the unit existed to capture, study and weaponize demons. It's like the Aliens movies where defeating the Aliens wouldn't actually be that hard except the authorities have an absolutely inexplicable obsession with harnessing them instead.

Dushku is retired, shes a counsellor now

like at camp?

i'm still mad she went on the soft-porn show banshee and never showed tits

how is it worse than the 300 year old demon dating a slightly older teen hogh schooler like Buffy?

Bad guys are plain human old white men

Yep guess nobody involved wants me to watch this show
