"Okay cuddles, take it easy! I realize you're probably broken up about Twin Peaks getting canceled -- Heck, so am I. But you don't see me destroying shopping centers and hurting innocent people.
Try not to get so caught up this viewing season -- not that it should be that much of a problem, having seen the fall lineup.
Didn't your parents warn you that watching too much T.V. would lead to this sort of thing?"
From "Buffy" to "Runaways" and beyond, authors Brian K. Vaughan and Joss Whedon have thrilled fans on the page and on the screen, and join us now to conduct a very special and candid interview -- with each other.
JW: Finally, do you have any advice for up-and-coming firemen?
BKV: They're called fire fighters, Mr. Equality Now.
JW: Thanks ... for alerting people to the serious issue of Drew's evil mustache.
Question: I absolutely adore Chuck. I think it's phenomenally funny and has bags of charm. It also resonates with me on a personal level. (No, I'm not a spy.) It seems to handle twentysomething life situations in a very realistic way (like not really moving on since college, having partially realized romantic feelings and not fitting in). I think it has the potential to be to people in their twenties and thirties what Buffy was to so many a while back: meaningful and entertaining! But the ratings worry me — a lot. How strange that it seemed to gain a million viewers last week then lost them again. Do you have the inside scoop on how the show is faring at NBC? Considering its slot and that it often beats the well-established Prison Break, are the ratings all that bad? How do DVR stats factor in? Should we start a campaign to save the show now? This might just be the new show with the most devoted Internet fans — I'd hate to think it was time to mobilize already!— Paul
Matt Roush: Take a breath. I'm a big Chuck fan, too, and I wish it were doing better, but given the generally positive press it's been getting amid the up-and-down ratings, I'm expecting NBC to be patient with this one. Not that it ever hurts to take a proactive stance and send the network kudos for airing it, I suppose. I'm not sure I'd put it up there with Buffy, or challenge the passion of other shows' online fandom, but of all the new shows that have premiered this fall, Chuck has been one of the few that has consistently delivered on its early promise. There's so much to like in the clever and heartfelt writing, as well as in the ensemble — in addition to the adorable Zachary Levi, I get a kick every week out of Joshua Gomez (Morgan) and Adam Baldwin (Casey). And the action stuff isn't too shabby, either. This is a show I recommend for sheer entertainment, and I'd love to see NBC experiment with it in a different and later time period (and one that doesn't force it to go head-to-head with a phenom like Dancing with the Stars).
Gellar too scared for 'Buffy' movie

Sarah Michelle Gellar has revealed that she is too scared to star in a movie version of Buffy The Vampire Slayer.
Although the TV series was adapted from the 1992 film starring Kristy Swanson, Gellar believes the character's story has already reached a conclusion in the show.
She told Moviehole.net: "I have to be honest. That thought really scares me. Buffy was a movie and it didn't work because her story was longer than that. This was about a girl that you had to get to know and it took so long to figure out how to crack the ending so that people weren't upset.
"Of course I never say never, so I'm not saying no, but my fear would be to open something like that up again, to only end it again."
The actress recently expressed concern that the forthcoming Sex And The City movie would fail to live up to expectations.

Moviehole had the chance to speak to the lovely Sarah Michelle Gellar this week, who said she’s still a little unsure whether she’d want to reprise her Slayer role for a big-screen Buffy film it ever came off.
“I have to be honest. That thought really scares me. Buffy was a movie and it didn't work because her story was longer than that.”, Gellar said. “This was about a girl that you had to get to know and it took so long to figure out how to crack the ending so that people weren’t upset. Of course I never say never, so I’m not saying no, but my fear would be to open something like that up again, to only end it again.
“Like Sex in the City is such a great ending,so I’m curious to see now how they’re going to open it up and how to shut it for us again. I feel like a show you love ends, you have like a mourning period, so do you open yourself up to that again, to wanting it but knowing it’s going to end. That whole thing worries me a little bit.”
As much as the show recalls the movies, it also recalls some of the best work ever done in the genre for TV: the Buffy universe of Joss Whedon. Most every blast of portent and bombast is lightened by a throwaway joke; scenes of intense action and violence give way to equally well-realized scenes of domestic life that root the fantasy in emotional reality.
