Joss Whedon couldnt contain himself. So jazzed that his landmark musical episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer was being screened at the legendary Cinerama Dome theater (site of this years awesome Paley Fest), he sneaked into the audience to watch one of the numbers before rejoining that old gang of his for group photos before taking the stage for a retrospective Q&A (moderated by yours truly). Like me, I think he would have rather just sat in the theater to drink it in. But there was catching up to do.Ive finally met someone whose passion for musicals outstrips mine (if only because hes genius enough to be able to write one). The reason Joss arrived too late to set up the screening (following my own opening remarks) was because he came straight from wrapping production of his next musical project: Doctor Horribles Sing-Along Blog, an entirely independent made-for-Internet (but no word yet on where youll find it) musical-comedy, conceived during...

Question: Is Buffy the Vampire Slayer ever coming back?
Answer: Under normal circumstances, this would qualify as a stupid question. But instead I'm going to use it as an opportunity to share with you my close encounter with a Buffy grad during Emmy week! So, it's Friday morning and I'm working out at The Sports Club/LA across the street from my hotel when guess who climbs onto the treadmill next to me? Go ahead, guess. No, come on. Yes! It was Emma Caulfield. At least I'm 90 percent certain it was her. I didn't have the guts to introduce myself, but I did happen to glance over at her speed. Anya was clocking 6.8 mph to my 7. Not that it was a race or anything.

Does life go on after Buffy the Vampire Slayer? It does for Emma Caulfield, the babe behind Sunnydale's late she-demon Anya. "I had been ready to go for a while — [for various] reasons," she tells TV Guide Online, cryptically. "It had nothing to do with [series creator] Joss Whedon; I love him. There were just certain politics around there that made it very difficult to grow."
So, what's a disgruntled vengeance demon to do? Try her luck on the big screen, natch. Since biting the dust in Buffy's May 2003 series finale, Caulfield headlined the hit horror flick Darkness Falls and produced and starred in the indie mockumentary Bandwagon. In the latter pic, which recently debuted at the Newport Beach Film Festival to rave reviews, the former Beverly Hills, 90210 star plays a self-absorbed Hollywood thesp named, um, Emma Caulfield.
The actress concedes that her peeps were a bit worried that audiences

When Buffy the Vampire Slayer wrapped last May, Emma Caulfield was eager to shed her persona as Anya, the self-centered ex-vengeance demon. She wanted to try something different. Instead, she ended up reconnecting with her former 90210 beau, Jason Priestly. They happily reunited to make the ABC Family romantic comedy I Want to Marry Ryan Banks (Sunday at 8 pm/ET).
"I love that man so much," Caulfield tells TV Guide Online. "He is just one of those people I am so grateful that I met. He is really just one of the good ones.
"It was like no time had gone by whatsoever," she continues. "We just picked up right where we left off. And we just had such a good time. He's just lovely and I always wanted to work with him again. We had really good chemistry on Hi
