Buffy the Vampire Slayer star Sarah Michelle Gellar says a Hulu exec who is "not a fan of the original" is to blame for the spin-off being axed

Buffy: The Vampire Slayer.

After announcing that Hulu will no longer be moving forward with the Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot, original star Sarah Michelle Gellar has shed a little more light on who is to blame for the cancellation.

“We had an executive on our show who was not only not a fan of the original, but was proud to constantly remind us that he had never seen the entirety of the series and how it wasn’t for him,” said Gellar to People. "That’s very hard when you’re taking a property that is as beloved as Buffy, not just to the world, but to Chloé and me. So that tells you the uphill battle that we had been fighting since day one."
