The news that the planned Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot isn't moving forward at Hulu hit fans like a ton of bricks. It was a highly anticipated return for a popular show, one that included the return of star Sarah Michelle Gellar, and with Oscar-winning Chloe Zhao directing the pilot. Whether or not the pilot would get picked up wasn’t thought to be a concern for fans, and yet, here we are without a series order having surfaced.
The only thing more frustrating than Buffy's reboot not moving forward is the list of absolutely insane details that have come out over the last couple of days explaining why the series isn’t moving forward. That includes the fact that the exec who made the decision was apparently a proud anti-fan of the original series.
