Put all that money into the Buffy reboot and we’re set! (I know that’s not how that works, but a man can dream.)

ABC could lose tens of millions of dollars if it can’t find a way to save “#TheBachelorette,” sources say. The losses would include fees paid to Warner Bros. Unscripted TV, marketing costs and other revenue the network would miss out on. According to insiders, Warner Bros. execs are taking a wait-and-see approach to what is happening, while staying in contact with ABC. variety.com/2026/tv/news/a…

Valid criticism and honesty are not the same thing as “hating” something. Even if it’s not rudely stated, explicitly saying you hate someone or their work is a just a bad look in general for ANY industry you’re in. Hate whatever you want, but spreading that publicly is… odd.

So Hulu is smearing Chloé Zhao because people got real pissed they cancelled the Buffy reboot. If they cared about the project, they would invest in getting the pilot where it needed to be — but you can’t tell me a guy who never saw the original series knew where it should be better than Sarah.
Variety@Variety

EXCLUSIVE: Sources say Chloé Zhao ultimately proved a mismatch for the “Buffy” reboot, with the pilot reportedly undershot and lacking coverage, requiring reshoots. Her filmmaking style, while acclaimed, didn’t translate to a dialogue-heavy TV pilot, and the new cast’s performances were said to be under-directed, making it difficult for the characters to land. variety.com/2026/tv/news/b…

Hulu is upset that Sarah Michelle Gellar told the truth that Hulu put an executive in charge of the reboot that admitted he didn't like Buffy. Now they have their "sources" coming to Variety trying to make Sarah and Chloe Zhao the problem. No one is falling for that. #Buffy

@NickRodriguez00 Excuses: “We loved the pitch but have to pass because we’re developing something similar.” “Our mandate just changed and this no longer fits for us.” “We didn’t connect with it the way we thought we would.” What they said to you isn’t an excuse!

@cadlymack But you're right, I'm confused how they got the script and didn't immediately just... request a new one that was more in-line with what they wanted? Unless SMG and folks convinced them to "wait and see"?

@cadlymack I've been telling folks that it ultimately feels like there was a miscommunication about what this was going to be. Buffy was ALWAYS a young-skewing show. It matured as it went. Seems like the same would have happened here, but for some reason they wanted Breaking Buffy up front?

Watching the internet reaction to this stuff is really interesting. So many people are like “the script sucked!” Maybe (I didn’t read it and have no opinion) but Hulu picked it up and shot it. If the problem was the script why wouldn’t they address it before throwing millions of dollars at it?
Variety@Variety

EXCLUSIVE: The shooting draft for the scrapped “Buffy” reboot at Hulu reveals the plot: Over the course of the script, Nova (Ryan Kiera Armstrong), described as a “brainy introvert,” discovers that she’s the Slayer — and people in Sunnydale do know the mythology of what Slayers are because of what happened to the town back in Buffy’s day. Set during a “Vampire Weekend,” a Renaissance Faire-like celebration of the town’s dubious history, Nova takes down two actual vampires after coming into her powers. By the episode’s end, the formerly friendless Nova has a new Scooby Gang flanking her. The action then cuts to New York City for a brief scene with Sarah Michelle Gellar as Buffy, who is working in a corporate office building under the name "Anne." The script drops hints about what’s to come: Her dad, a photojournalist, is overly protective, and has moved them around a lot after Nova was kidnapped as a young child. And all the vampires that Buffy buried in the show’s 2003 series finale, when the Hellmouth collapsed in on itself, taking Sunnydale down with it, have been awakened. Nova would have her work cut out for her. variety.com/2026/tv/news/b…
