Sarah Michelle Gellar Returning to TV!


The actress who created my very favorite television character in history is back!

Sarah Michelle Gellar Returning to TV!Deadline reports that Sarah Michelle Gellar is returning to network television! (Yes, I know she did not CREATE the character of Buffy, but the movie just didn’t count.)

Sarah Michelle will star in a new drama called Ringer which was just greenlighted by CBS as the first drama pickup of the season. The show is written the team that created Supernatural. Deadline reports:

"Ringer, written on spec by Supernatural writer-producers Eric Charmelo & Nicole Snyder, centers on a troubled young woman (Gellar) who, while on the run from the mob, hides out by inhabiting the life of her wealthy twin sister, until she learns that her twin’s life has a bounty on it as well. Brillstein’s Peter Traugott is executive producing, with Gellar, Charmelo and Snyder co-executive producing. Geller, repped by ICM and Brillstein’s Joanne Colonna, has been heavily pursued by the broadcast networks since the end of Buffy in 2003. Her only TV gig since then had been the HBO pilot The Wonderful Maladys."

There’s no doubt I’ll be watching. In fact, I can’t imagine anything ELSE I could be doing.  Alas, she won’t be slaying any vampires (as far as I can tell from the description of the show — but who knows???) but being on the run from the mob ain’t so different!
