   You're going to watch a reboot *without* thinking about the original   
   series?   
   Good luck with that plan! :-D   
      
   Buffy had a great cast and great stories and they should leave it alone   
   or do a series that shows how things have changed since the slayers   
   became public.   
      
   I don't think this will get made but if it does it won't be anytime soon.
