    Since Whedon doesn’t seem to be involved, maybe Tara will actually come back this time.

        As far as I know she has never said who it specifically was, just that there was a person who made her not want to come back(after a huge fan push to revive her, among the many possible moments).

        It has later been revealed by multiple people across several productions that span decades, that Joss Whedon is basically a “good old boy”. The kind of guy who finds it funny to mock women. He allegedly has retold a story he found hilarious, about how he made a female writer cry, twice. That sort of behaviour was “confirmed” to happen by by multiple cast members, including SMG. And it is likely why he has no involvement in the new show.

        ssɐqɯnᗡ is likely referring to the fact that Michelle Trachtenberg is ACTUALLY dead in real life. That takes it from awkward to REALLY awkward.

          iirc they decided to do the reboot after Michelle Trachtenberg died.

          I’m not going to speculate about it, but I’d think that Geller and Trachtenberg were friends and I do know that Geller has resisted doing a reboot for years.

            I don’t mean the REBOOT is awkward.

            I mean her WORDING is awkward.

            She could’ve gone with something like “I want to find a way to get everyone we can back on the show.”

              How are people not understanding that? It was obvious from the very first comment.
