The Buffyverse and Beyond

For Buffy’s 25th anniversary, Slayerfest 98’s Ian Carlos Crawford deep dives into the show’s unparalleled legacy – and why it has become so much bigger than Joss Whedon

After taking on Friends in his show, Friend: The One with Gunther, comedian Brendan Murphy brings us Buffy Revamped. The one man show taking us…

“9-1-1: Lone Star” has already featured guest appearance by to “Angel” alums, Julie Benz and Amy Acker, during the first few episodes of its currently airing third season. And if showrunner Tim Minear – who was a writer and executive producer on “Angel” and brought in Gina Torres, a vet of the WB series, as a lead on “Lone Star” at the start of Season 2 – is down for it, an actress from one of Minear’s other beloved series would love to make another reunion happen: “Firefly” star Morena Baccarin.

Now streaming on Apple TV+, Suspicion is a new thriller series that follows five British citizens who find themselves at the center of a kidnapping investigation when an American businesswoman’s son goes missing. The group embarks on a mission to prove their innocence while avoiding the authorities. Among the ensemble cast are Kunal Nayyar, Elizabeth Henstridge, and Tom Rhys Harries.

The trio of actors spoke to Screen Rant to discuss the twists and turns of the show, common questions they face from fans, and much more.

Apple TV+ original crime thriller series Suspicion follows five ordinary Brits who are accused of being involved in kidnapping the son of a prominent American businesswoman (Uma Thurman), after its discovered that they w ere all in the same New York hotel on the night that it happened. As they try to prove their innocence and secrets start to be uncovered, they also start to suspect each other.

During this 1-on-1 interview with Collider, which you can both watch and read, Elizabeth Henstridge (who plays Tara McAllister, a university lecturer and mom that’s also one of the suspects) talked about why she was attracted to this suspenseful thriller, her one rule for auditioning, whether she gets nervous when starting a new project, the mother-daughter relationship, when she found out how the season would end, and feeling like they earned the ending.

Plus, since there’s no way to know if “Firefly” would maintain its quality over the course of multiple seasons, perhaps the premature cancellation wasn’t the worst thing that could’ve happened to the show’s legacy?

Ultimately, all the emphasis on the business aspect of “Firefly” tends to distract from its vision of humanity’s future and many indelible characters. Lets forget about ratings and box office totals for a little bit and hash out the timeline of the “Firefly” ‘Verse. With all due respect to “Firefly” comics, we;re only including the television series and the movie in this post.

The timeline for “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” became quite complex throughout its run, covering multiple storylines that dovetailed with each other, featuring some characters who would die only to return, and jumping across space and time on numerous occasions. With that in mind, here’s a breakdown of the major events that became cornerstones of the show, explained in simple terms even a S.H.I.E.L.D. rookie agent could understand.
