.....
"Paired with 'Angel,' the show viewers and critics begged us to return, we have a formidable action-fantasy block with massive male appeal and stars women and teens love as well. In addition to James Marsters, other visitors from Sunnydale will be seen in Joss Whedon's world, which will take an uptown turn out of the darkness this fall."

--The chance of a "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" sequel for UPN's fall schedule just went from "unlikely" to "zero," if we're to believe what the TV Maven Formerly Known as Wanda posted Friday over on E ! Online. Lanky, lovely Kristin did a little junketeering on the slayer set. Her verdict : "The cast and Buffy boss Joss Whedon all echoed the same sentiment : Definitely no spinoff this fall, but they are hopeful there will be one in the future."

--You know the PoW, Jessica Lynch ?  Hollywood is already thinking of making a movie about her and possibly casting Sarah Michelle Gellar as Private Lynch.

Buffy was nominated 11 times for the Genre Awards (for all the nominations)

--American newspaper USA Today caused confusion , by claiming that Simon and Schuster's range of Buffy books were to end in May.  "Simon Schuster will release its final Buffy the Vampire Slayer novel to coincide with the show's last airing on May 20," their web site announced.   We checked with Simon and Schuster UK, who suspect the paper got confused by news that they are rush-releasing a novelisation of all of season seven in June.   The ambitious tome will attempt to cram all 22 episodes into 600 pages - that's an astonishing 27 pages per episodes by our calculations !  As for the claim that the novels are to cease, Simon and Schuster UK confirmed that novels are scheduled for at least the rest of year, and that they have no knowledge of the range coming to an end
