Charisma Carpenter talks 'Buffy The Vampire Slayer'

Charisma Carpenter looks back on 'Buffy The Vampire Slayer' and talks to DS about it's success and her character Cordelia Chase.

Man she still looks incredible! And I have to say Cordelia is one of my absolute favorite characters ever. Top 3! Man, I miss her so much.

[jbear]

Cordelia's like "i heard that" and then "oh what?" haha. I love you Charisma. And I loved Cordelia.

[deviija]

Charisma is so gracious and lovely. It was wonderful to be part of the Buffy generation growing up. So thank you for helping to enrich that experience, Charisma. :D

[Aamzy]

She is easily one of the best characters ever in Buffy/Angel

From spoilt, bitch high school girl to a warrior for good to higher being.
R.I.P Cordelia Chase

''We take what we can get, champ. And we do our best with it'' - gets me all the time :(

Cordelia has always been my favourite Buffyverse character. I love how her name means the exact opposite of who she is.
Charisma, you're a treasure [your name is super fitting] xxx

All the characters developed so much through the show. But Cordelia's transformation from high school bully on Buffy to a medium/angelthing on Angel was really amazing.

[laywa]

she's so beautiful. She was my fav Buffy and also Angel Character :)

[imreallytired]

I really thought Cordelia was one of the most dynamic characters ever, right up there with Willow. The way she was in the first season compared to her last season on Angel.. its like 2 different people and showed how great of a character Cordelia was in the Verse. And Charisma never ages!

[TheLiamster]

I love Charisma, she’s a beautiful and talented actress

Buffy is my favourite series of shows of all time. I now have every episode on dvd when I saw the price online had dropped to a price I could afford. Got mine off HMV website. I remember when they first come out they were around 30-40 quid just for one season! I got each season for I think it was 9 quid. An absolute bargain for mostly 6 dvd discs with some great features on also. Most interesting feature was on a season 6 dvd where they talk about how they were struggling to get on a network.

[Dasbootsunny]

She like doesnt age... She's 40 and still beautiful wtf

@HyperionBorg I don't know where you get your facts from, but SMG didn't refuse to appear in the final episode of Angel, she actually offered to appear in the finale but Joss turned her down. Originaly he had wanted SMG for "The Girl in Question" but she had other work commitments.

[upforagoodtime]

Did not see her much in Angel but loved her character in Buffy!

[BenjaminWylieMusic]

there are coarses on buffy! i would so ace that class!

[Charliebangel]

My Cordy.
It's so sad(evey single time) watching season 4 of "Angel" and understanding that Cordy is evil. It's just I cant bear it. It's not fair! Cordy was a great character in Buffy and the first seasons of Angel. I miss her. I miss the "real" Cordelia. I miss her in Season 5.

O.o I could try posting a clip of it on here sometime. Probably a nice way to try out my new webcam or could try using a screen capture software I have.

Charisma was amazing on Angel she was okay on Buffy but she truly grew into her character in angel we seen her fight then use weapons she never did that on Buffy but it was sad how Joss did her she really needed to be in season 5 of angel it just wasn't the same without Cordelia😢

[MissShizingher]

@hotpants140s i agree! she still looks so young . i could not believe she was 40!

[HyperionBorg]

@FriendsluvBuffyAngel Also consider the fact that Joss took FireFly to the big screen because he promised the cast he would. I have NO doubt that he has wanted to make the same promise to the cast of Buffy but the only member of that cast that he can't count on being willing to come back is SMG. You can blame Marni Knoxen for SMG's attitude...She did something to coerce Gellar into being Buffy past season five when the show was supposed to end and Gellar never forgave her...or so it's said.

Miss Cordelia in the later part of Angel and also miss Good old Buffy and Giles as well as Zander and Willow. Get a somewhat vibe from Alyson in the new show she is in How i meet your mother, so Willow is still alive and kicking in that show.
