That "I tried" was so Buffy 😄 I could literally see her saying it like that in the show.
Me too :-D
I thought this and came to comments to see who else saw it 🤣
She's so classy :) there is a reason we fans have stuck with SMG for so long. I never feel "left out" when she tells stories, she always places her heart in her words, and she uses her intellect to drive the narrative. Truly a star ! -- cannot wait to check out Wolf Pack !
Need all use massage here halp buy coming back
Absolutely. So glad she’s back on TV, too.
"i get lost in my work" - a key reason why Buffy is a masterpiece to watch.
Buffy still remains as the best television series of all time.
Totalmente de acuerdo!
Every word in your comment is 100% accurate
@@donnywilliamson5807 thank you
I didn’t pay too much attention to BTVS when it was out, but when it was on Netflix, I binged it and really enjoyed the show. The writing and the acting was fantastic. They had so many cool stories with life messages. One episode really stood out for me was the one where Buffy’s mom died. That and many other moments is when Sara really showed her abilities as an actor. Great cast - great series
I wonder if SMG knows how many people's lives she's saved in her roll as Buffy. The most controversial thing Buffy ever did was, live. We love you SMG. Thank you❤🔥
Role - it’s not bread
"The hardest thing in this world, is to live in it. Be brave, live."
Why the commar?
@@lauramcclain8651🤣🤣🤣🤣 usually I defend people who hate on peoples spelling mistakes but your response was hilarious and not mean lol
Buffy was the best tv series I’ve ever watched.
Still is! I rewatch it from time to time and nothing can beat it!
I've been watching TV since the early 60s and BTVS is still the best series ever. The writing, the acting, the directing - and the series was one long, long story arc. I've never seen a show handle the characters' growth so well and so long.
I still watch it on Fuse
She will always be Buffy to me, but she did an amazing job playing Kathryn in Cruel Intentions it just shows her range in her skills and didn't pigeon hole her into playing one type of character. It was a smart move on her part!
Always been highly underrated actress (outside the buffy world at least. BTVS fans recognize she is brilliant).
Yes, shes very underrated
She should have at least gotten nominated for her acting in "The Body." I have never seen a better acting job on TV.
@@SurvivorBri she did. golden globe nominated! they didn't specifically say for that ep but it was after that season and the clip they showed was from The Body
@@umbudiga oh that's right she did receive a Golden Globe nom! I'm glad they finally paid attention to her after so many years of amazing performances in that role.
She has never been underrated lol. She has always been very highly rated.
Such an attractive and talented actress! Her work on Ringer is underrated!
In 1997 I had a huge crush on Buffy and I would watch BTVS faithfully after I finished my homework. It was the highlight of the week for 11 year old me.
She was brilliant in All My Children - Kendall was a beast! Buffy remains one of my all time fav shows!
I watch AMC with my grandma and loved her as Kendall. I was also obsessed with the movie BTVS. I almost died when Buffy came became a show and it was SMG!🎉❤
I have always and always will love Sarah Michelle Gellar. Her soul is just beautiful 🤍
I one hundred percent believe that Sarah is one of the most underrated actresses of her time. Seriously her interpretation of Buffy was absolutely moving and anytime I re-watch I'm blown away by the power and intensity/depth of Sarah's performance. Hands down one of the best actresses IDC what anyone says. 💯🙏🏻❤️
My childhood hero, cannot wait to watch Wolf Pack to support SMG! My fav actress ever.
I love you Sarah! Buffy was my child hood since middle school... I'm 34 and still watch till this day...
Have been a fan for hers for years. She has a very likeable presence that draws you in. Also I like her versatility to play such different roles.
BTW - It's awesome that she likes Grease 2 more than the original. I thought I was the only one who thought it was better. 😄
Who's that guy on that motorcycle?
What would they say if they knew it was Michael?
@@joeypotter6051 Looks to me like he could really fly!
Won't somebody tell me, who's that guy!
Buffy will forever & always be my favourite show - that’s the show I always re watch. Her acting is just phenomenal and SMG was so dedicated to her character and it shows ❤ you feel all the feels along with her
I love Sarah ! She’s still my favourite actress till this day. Her work on Buffy was remarkable. She’s also a very genuine person too. Love her ❤❤
As a twenty-something who binged Buffy during quarantine, this woman means SO much to me. Beyond being absolutely gorgeous, she is such a ray of light and kind soul! 💛
There are moments in Buffy where SMG's performance was utterly tremendous. & there was 5+ episodes that are among the greatest in television history.
Please name 5 of these episodes
@@always-positivity Hush, Restless, The Body, The Gift, Once More With Feeling.
@@LissaBroyles thank you! I will go back and re watch them. I've seen every episode of Buffy but it's been a couple years lol.
Both shows, "Buffy" and "Angel" are two both EXCELLENT shows and compliment themselves quite well.
I went through a phase where i’d go back and forth between binging buffy and binging angel, and every time i’d switch and watch a couple episodes in a row i’d think “wow, this might be better than buffy” and vice versa. it really shows how they’re both wonderful shows in their own way. incredible writing and acting all around
@@eliza5344 You know what's funny is that I was so much more into Buffy, I dismissed Angel. Then I watched Angel later on and actually really enjoyed it. Then I filled in the gaps that were in between episodes of Buffy. For instance if Buffy was not in an episode or Angel was not in an episode was because they were on each other's shows. That's why to get the real experience, you have to see both series. There were many crushing and depressing episodes and really fantastic ones. But I have to admit Willow and Wesley were two of the most dynamic characters to be able to do a 360 on both their character's personalities. I know they're both married in real life, which is great! Just real well written characters all around.
Love this interview. She is brilliant, she deserves so much. I hope the universe sends many awards her way!
I'm so happy she's back doing more projects besides voice work. Thank you SMG, for my childhood ❤️
Sarah only continues to get more iconic! I am so excited to see her in wolf pack, she is my all time favorite actress and biggest inspirations!
Cruel Intentions is my all time favorite movie. Hope she comes back to acting soon.
I love SMG!!! She's just such an amazing woman and actresses!❤
That's my girl 💖. Love her
been in love with her since '97
❤️ SMG forever, Buffy will always be my favorite show ever.
Love SMG so much. One of my favorite actresses of all time and one of the most beautiful as well. I was heartbroken when she stopped acting for awhile, but I understand she wanted to be a full time mom and focus on her family. She's an admirable woman for that. Beyond excited for her comeback to film/TV. She lights up the screen whenever she's on it.
I'm so pleased that she is making a comeback, and that even amid all the controversy that now haunts Buffy due to JW, she can be positive about her experiences and the show.
Realmente lo de Joss Whedon es lamentable... es lamentable que se le juzgara tan duramente... siendo que Él demostró siendo director de una de las películas más taquilleras de todos los tiempos "Avengers" reviviendo Marvel, y todos los trabajos que ha hecho, que es un genio! Si fue "duro" con los actores.. nunca lo sabremos realmente... lo que yo vi en los videos del set es que era una persona super divertida y agradable! su forma de trabajar da excelentes resultados. No hay que juzgar a la gente... menos a quien uno no conoce en persona.
One of my favorite actresses she’s awesome!
Every year that goes by, SMG gets more and more beautiful. I have no idea what Dark Magic is involved here, but she seems to have it completely working for her. Amazing. :)
favourite actor ever , so excited for wolf pack
What a true legend! I don't know if she knows this but Sarah Michelle Gellar made a whole generation of 90's lesbians think they could fight vampires in their Youth.
Before they knew they were lesbians of course!
Before those moments of "And I think I'm kinda gay."
Jeez you people have a pathetic way of trying to claim everything and look for heroes and validation everywhere.
"It's okay, I know both sides!" That reminds me of little Cole Sprouse on Friends, who always knew not only his lines, but also Jennifer and David's. 😂
Emma Watson says in the first couple of films she memorized the script so carefully she knew the Harry and Ron lines. Problem was, she'd mouth the lines during the scene and the director would have to say "Cut. Emma, you're doing it again."
@@donjones4719 That's so cute!
As a shy confused gay kid filled with anxiety and depression at school Buffy taught me to be strong. Thank you SMG
You are so much more than any of the above. People might encourage you to push yourself into labelled boxes, but please don't. It's so much easier (and less depressing) to just be yourself, let your personality shine and be defined by that and your new experiences rather than a few labels.
I'm straight and my school years were long past when BTVS was on the air but Buffy also taught me to be strong. I came to know I have a strong female side. That's important for a guy to know!
Happy birthday Buffy ❤
She is the best 🤩🤩🤩🤩 I still watch Buffy 😍
I love SMG! She is such an amazing actor, beautiful person! 💕
Can't wait to see her new show. I really liked her as the bad girl in Cruel Intentions.
She still looks great.
If you haven't already, you MUST watch Southland Tales! It's one of Sarah's finest performance imo
One of my all time favourite actors--- she's just such an icon in every way
I've always loved her - one of my fav actresses! Also, this outfit is giving a major Fred and Daphne mashup vibe.
I love her so much. Thank you for amazing memories Sarah.
I Luv Btvs, and Cruel Intentions is one of my very favorite flicks, seen it So many times!!
She’s amazing
She's honestly as cute as ever lol
A vital part of my youth and one of my absolute favorite TV and movie stars.
Wonderful actor, and even better person. Loved her on AMC and Buffy.
I use wait and tape the episode !! Back in the day!!! I was so obsessed ! No one these days could understand/appreciate this!
She's a legend . Such a great actress & a nice lady . In the movie I know what u did last summer she looked like girly Buffy without the slayer power .
The first time i ever heard of her was I Know What You did last Summer. Then I heard she was Buffy. then I saw Cruel Intentions. then i started watching Buffy.
Great video and I love Sarah Michelle Gellar she is a great actress.😁
Still as beautiful as she was in the 90s.
Really can’t wait for Wolf Pack!
Still looking great.
I forgot how much I missed just hearing her talk.
I love her in Scooby doo I know what you did last summer cruel intentions but most of all I love her in Buffy The Vampire Slayer
That house & location looks dreamy. Lucky girl.
She’s beautiful I want to see her in more shows and movies!!
This was great! So many answers in such a short amount of time. Love this format.
She's still beautiful.
She is one of my favorite actresses
These new generation of kids need to know about Buffy the Vampire Slayer!!
Beautiful video and I like Sarah Michelle Gellar and was awesome as Teela in masters of the universe. Hope she comes back for it and please post more lovely videos like this :)
Already loved her but now I know she had a buffy obsession to love her even more
Love that she chose Friends and Freddie Prinze Jr was on that show
buffy please come again 😭🤗🌸❤️
My favorites were Sound of Music and Grease too as well. I know every scene and every song from both ❤
For anyone waiting for her explanation of why she wanted to be in Cruel Intentions- she doesn't actually say why she wanted to be in it. She says she loved the script and wanted to be in the movie but she doesn't say why she felt that way at all.
That is the answer -- because she loved the script.
I think she's pretty clear in that she took the role as it's a step out of her comfort zone and what she was being typecast in at the time, has to be a refreshing project for an actor to go against what people know you for and expect from you.
@@Vinsomer Plus it was a great work of 18th century French literature: not the usual Hollywood fare.
Shes so sensible and down to earth, as well as having a reputation for professionalism and hard work. Going to watch Buffy for the 1000th time after seeing this, love her!
Watching an episode of friends with sarah would be surreal. The star of my favoriite show watches my other favorite show!
She looks fabulous
She’s so amazing 😩
Your work on the in real life scooby doo movies will always be my favorite that I've ever seen. Those will always be my favorite movies
She looks amazing! Can’t wait to watch Wolf Pack!
So sweet and genuine 🌹
Love SMG, a hero growing up and a hero as I grow old!
She's wonderfull 💖
You’re very versatile, SMG!
Loved Sarah’s performance as Daphne in the live action version of Scooby Doo.
My childhood tv heroin SMG and my musical idol Christina Aguilera both share that love from The Sound of Music! That’s a cute comparaison ❤
SMG is my fave og 90’s celeb, love her sm
Will always love Buffy - opps I mean Sarah.
Grease 2. She's now a guilty pleasure friend of mine.
Her voice is so different than in Buffy
She is still Soo pretty!!! I know Sarah as Daphne! And would have loved to see her again! She and Fred were Soo perfect! My childhood! and later in dreaded The grudge! The decency and humility in her words and kind demeanor is very calming and enjoyable!
Love her. Always have always will 🥰
LOVE SMG and BUFFY!!!!
I love this woman and everything she does 🤍
Fantastic fantastic fantastic Well there be a movie return
I love her !
SMG choices of tv shows are exactly mine... plus Buffy of course!
Please sarah need buffy again 😭
I love her SO MUCH
I'm guessing they were having audio issues during the interview, because I can't recall the last time I saw an interview like this where the celebrity needed to hold a microphone. Can't wait for the new Wolf show!
And to think that she was very nearly cast as Cordelia. Buffy would have been a very different show if casting went that way.
