If you share my anti-love for TikTok, you probably don't know how busy Charisma Carpenter is. Buffy Fans have fun. She's entertaining everything from wild fan questions about how David Boreanaz smells to celebrating "naughty...potty mouth" fans. However, none of her content has sparked as much as her asking if fans want her to do a podcast, and for good reason: If she's willing to spill the tea, few actors in Joss Whedon's Vampire Slayer universe have a more compelling story to share.

One of the reasons for this is that Charisma Carpenter is able to walk the line between two major franchises, serving as a member of the main cast. Buffy the Vampire Slayer Before moving to the mood Angel After the spinoff BuffyThe third season is over. To put it mildly, Angel It was completely different in setting, acting, and overall tone, and I wanted to hear more about how Carpenter adapted her party-girl character to the new, wholesome world of "hodunit" mysteries.

example - AngelThe early episodes often seem to see Cordelia as someone in her early 20s rather than an 18-year-old recent high school student, and we want to hear how much of that was intentional and how much was accidental. As for the show itself, Angel It's so fast-paced and dramatically improvised that each season feels very different from the last, and it's worth knowing how Charima Carpenter navigated this after he left. Buffy (Mostly the same show, until she surprisingly leaves).

For those who enjoy hearing about the messy, behind-the-scenes drama, though, Charisma Carpenter's is a very compelling reason to listen. Buffy Check out the podcast again (assuming it ever gets off the ground) to see if she cooks up more about the franchise's creator. Joss Whedon. Whedon was once known as Hollywood's most famous feminist, and one of the reasons for the change was that Carpenter took to X (formerly Twitter) to describe the man as having an "accidentally violent history."

She said he called her "fat" after she got pregnant, asked her if she was going to keep the child, blamed her pregnancy for ruining the show, and fired her after she gave birth. The actress was looking forward to becoming a mother, but that joy "died right away," she says, and she knows exactly who to blame: "Joss was a vampire."

Long story short, I'm here to revisit Charisma Carpenter. Buffy Glory Days on Tik Tok, and I'm hosting a special retrospective podcast. She still has a lot of love for her character and this entire fictional universe, which is evident from her online videos as well as her role in the amazing audio drama. Assassins: The Story of Buffiver. And if she wants to spill a whole gallon of tea about the behind-the-scenes dramas that go into some of the biggest urban fantasy shows in network history, that's the cherry on top of Cordelia's social media dominance.
