I know people dis her often but i really admire her as an actress. She's quite talented Buffy was an excellent showcase for her and i hope she appreciated it. She and Selma Blair made Cruel INtentions

It has nothing to do with her acting. It has a lot to do with the way she acted on the set when they weren't acting.

How did she act?Was she rude to the other actors? Didn't they all attend her wedding or something like that? I thought they were all shiny happy people holding handson that show. Was she a bit of a Diva?

From what I have read in many accounts online and in interviews on websites RKWalsh, SMG was a real Diva wannabe. She was said to be rude, inconsiderate, and extremely stuck on herself. Seems she thinks she has a lot more talent than she does.

Personally I liked BtVS, but I have never really thought her acting ability all that stellar. She is good, but I would not say she was any better than say James Marsters, Alyson Hannigan, or Anthony Head. She was just not that believable when she tried for rage or anguish.

oh thanks for the info but i have got to say that when buffy was raging i was scared and when she was crying i was also in tears. so i got to give her props on talent but there's no need to be an ingrate and a wench to others on the show since BtVS was her vehicle to fame she should be grateful and gracious and boo hiss to her if she wasnt

Wasn't Michelle Trachtenberg was Sarah's Maid of Honor or something? I'm pretty sure she was at the wedding. I think Eliza Dushku was also. Not sure about the rest of the cast.

I remember reading that SMG did not show up for the wrap party when the show ended, and from what was said @ SciFiwire the cast were relieved she did not appear. Apparently she has a knack for getting under people's skin.

From what I have read Sarah and Freddie Gellar are snobs. I have heard several times that SMG was no stranger to diva like behavior. Also, I believe in the commentary for the pilot Joss is talking about how great Nathan was on set but if you wanted to make him cranky, "like 7th season TV star cranky" hang him from cables to do a scene. This to me is a direct shot at SMG. And I think it was horrible that she did not show up for the wrap party for Buffy. I don't care if she was making the awful sequel to the awful Scooby Doo, she would not have had the opportunity to make big time movies if it had not been for her star making role on Buffy. May be wrong, but from what have heard about her, I don't think I am. Having said that, I think she was a great actress on Buffy not to mention incredibly hot.

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Oh. The sequel is out already? I'd been meaning to keep an eye out for it when it hit theaters. When'd you catch it?

Not out yet, but I believe shooting is done.
