Yeah, the way they are using "reboot" is confusing to me.
Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Revival might be a better word.

I'm I'm the middle of a rewatch and have the grandkid over today. She v saw half of Primevil and Restless, thought itwas all birds but kept watching. Upon meeting Dawn, it was hate at first sight. I was so proud. I'm waiting for the Glory/Ben revelation!!!

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

What is even happening?
And there's a Buffy reboot in the works (reboot of the remake variety, not a sequel or prequel).
I'm against it.
Things I am for about it -- while Joss would be an EP, Monica Owusu-Breen [link] would be showrunner and the lead slayer would be black.
I'm into all those parts except the remake part. Make it a sequel. Make it a prequel (with Nikki Wood in 1970s NYC). (Actually, I think I'd prefer a sequel. And I'm parenthesying myself to death)
I'm a little sad. It's like someone said, "Here's something you'd probably love, but it's going to screw up something you'll always love more."

Ooh yeah. I'd love to have it be about some earlier slayer, especially a black or POC one!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I give it a way less than 50% chance of actually happening, especially with the looming Disney merger.

What is even happening?
Sure. They don't even have it cast yet, and no network is attached. Even if they shoot a pilot, there are no guarantees, but I still feel oddly bothered, which is dumb. It's not like I'd have to watch (but I would a little, at least at first).
Do you all think they could do a sequel? I'd love to see that. With more slayers in the world, it could be fresh, some new rules, rather than just a retread with updated dialogue, hair, wardrobe, and the addition of cell phones.
(If the apocalypse comes, beep me.)

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
The TVLine article says they're looking for a black actress to play Buffy.

What is even happening?
Yeah, I think I said that. At least I meant to. I am all in for a black slayer and the showrunner is a woman of color. Those things are great. Remaking Buffy isn't.
