The characters have aged too, don't forget. I don't think age would be a problem.

Curious Chrisisall

1: SMG shows how Buffy should be done. Kristy Swanson shows how it shouldn't be done. Even in her not so good movies SMG still does a professional job. Although Alyson was the better actress overall IMO, SMG still did a fantastic job.

2: For the most part she was there. All actors/actresses have off days when a show has a long run. Even when she did she was still better than some other shows 'acting'.

3: Easy. When she killed Angel and the rest of that episode (the favourite of many with good reason).

4: Yes, but again Alyson was hotter. She wouldn't be that high up if I was to make a list either, FHM style. There are plenty of hotter females out there - in no order: Grace Park, Summer Glau, Reese Witherspoon, Emilie De Ravin, Nicole DeBoer, Elisha Cuthbert to name a few. But she is still very pleasing to the eye.

5: I watched Scooby 1 half coz she was in it, and half coz it was Scooby Doo (who is cool). But it was utter trash and watching Scooby 2 would be torture of the worst kind that only soap operas and reality TV could beat...

...or a surprise visit from the Spanish Inquisition with a fluffy cushion.

No, really, 2 was way better than 1, and actually worth seeing IMO!

Thing with Scooby Doo and the Gang was that they went to great lengths to disprove the myth of Ghosts and Ghoulies and yet in the film these very things are just part of the reality... Which is odd because it kind of makes the whole Scooby and the Gang redundant... Doesn't it? Or did I read that all wrong... I'll confess here and now I've only watched a few minutes of two....

Anyway... hohum.

Two had some monsters, but ultimately it boiled down to a dude in a mask, like the cartoon.

OOOPS!!! Did I spoil it for ya???

Zoinks!!
Now I guess there's no point in me doing my marathon Scooby Doo cartoon weekend. It was the dude in the mask, with the candlestick at the abandoned funfair all along.

Well as a fellow Browncoat says it's better I'll take the chance and watch SD2, next time it's on Sky. I won't hold CIA responsible for what state my mind will be in after though!!

1) Was she the best Buffy that could be? Could another actress have done it better?
Like many others, I can't imagine anyone else as Buffy. Especially Julie Benz, who read for the part. Imagine Darla as Buffy!

2} Was she always there on Buffy- ie, never phoning in a perfomance?
Everyone eventually phones in a performance in a show that goes on for that long. The one I remember being disappointed with was 'Older and Far Away'. Oh by the way, when I saw everyone, I exlude Alan Alda in M*A*S*H.

3) What was her best moment on the show, acting-wise?
'Amends' - the speech on the hill. A big suprise choice from me.

4) Was she hot, IYO? Hottest on the show?
Eliza Dushku. 'nuff said.

5) Have you watched Scooby Doo 1 & 2 just because she was in them?
Nope, caught half of one on TV once. Seemed crap.

1- I don't know who could have been better, I thought she was fantastic. The only one who could out-Buffy her is Kristin Bell, but she's too late.

2- There were times in the last season where I felt like the whole cast was phoning it in, mainly because they didn't seem to get what was going on. I didn't either.

3- Body, with her mom's passing. Outstanding.

4- Hot, you betcha. Hottest on the show, yep, after Cordy left. Cordy was smokin. Of course, this is not to say that there weren't other hotties on there, just that SMG was the hottest post-Cordy.

5- Yes.
