I only watch it because I have an old-gamer guy crush on Felicia Day. :)
so far the only rumor I read involved Eliza Dushku. And rumor explains “Dollhouse”. But Eliza was too young at the time. I saw her in Feb 1999. But someone should have kept her from the open bar. She recently admitted to alcohol & substance problems.
Guessing game can begin. But from 1998 to 2003 certainly were plenty of young ladies who were BTVS fans meeting Joss.

“He may be a Liberal, but his best series, Firefly, was very, very conservative... the movie, Serenity, even more so....” (Teacher317, post 29)
“I just can’t reconcile the libertarian themes of Firefly with the uber-liberal director of today ...” (Mr. Jeeves, post 30)
Felicia Day is eminently crushworthy. True when she guest-starred in the final season of Buffy, true now. I could say that about every female star and guest star. The beloved spouse says the same, of the male stars and guest stars.
Many thanks to Teacher317 for reminding everyone about Firefly. Every quote was cogent.
Joss Whedon may be a revolting Leftist, but he’s still a genius-level talent. He did have the knack of recruiting top-flight actresses and actors, he wrote compelling material for them, and he got the absolute best out of them on camera.
I confess to being captivated by Firefly & Serenity; likewise Buffy and Angel. I could watch & listen to the lead players of all three series read pages from a telephone book and be happy for hours.
The forum is urged not to judge talent nor creativity through any lens of ideological purity. That’s what the Left does: authors like David Horowitz & Peter Collier were ballyhooed as the topmost as long as they toed the New Left line, but when they began voicing second thoughts in print, they became talentless, and unworthy, as if by magic. In all Left publications, that is.
I’d like to think that people on the Right are in possession of greater intellectual honesty.
