I don't think Joss believed S7 would be the last
going in even if he knew it could be, depending on the network or SMG's
willingness to participate. After shooting started - and at least by
January when Sarah said she was done - he adjusted some of the storylines
because the end was in sight. Least that's what I got out of all the
interviews.
I have yet to get the
impression that I've heard the truth come out of Joss Whedon's mouth about the
end of Buffy. This started, or at least the first time I noticed it, was
when the EW magazine came out and the cast/crew blew up because nobody had
'officially announced' the end of Buffy to them before SMG announced it in
EW. They claimed - or a least, Aly claimed - that they found out about
it from the mag. But. Tony Head stated at the Cleveland convention
last year that they DID know, and they (Tony, Nick, Aly and Sarah) had
discussed announcing it as an ensemble... what Aly was mad about was that SMG
went on without them and announced it on her own and got her own EW cover and
such. Tony said without saying so that Aly came completely unglued when
that mag came out.
If one looks carefully, one can
see some very cleverly constructed sentences in the last couple of years, very
skillfully designed to make Sarah look very bad without actually coming out
and SAYING that she's an evil bitca from hell. Probably because she's
not. I get the distinct impression that she and Joss went toe-to-toe
about something around season 6 and he decided to punish her for it, and he's
not done punishing her yet. Too bad (for him) she's blown so far past
him. He's now writing comic books, while she's making massive
blockbuster movies. Hmm. Fancy that.
I also think it's a shame about
whatever happened between Aly and SMG. They used to seem to be such very
good friends... and now they are definitely not. I don't think they have
been for awhile. I always hate to see stuff like that happen. But
I imagine in the movie industry it must be as hard to keep good friends as it
is to keep honest managers and decent relationships. Makes me glad I'm
just a telephone CSR.

"...Can

Eliar made a rueful kind of
face. "Ma'am," he said, "I'm a country boy from the highlands of
Arum. We *invented* stupid."
