This does sound like the first decent part she's had in a long while and something that won't completely waste her talent. When's it due to air?

It's still just a Pilot though, right? There is a chance the show will never air.

They are going to begin filming the pilot on May 11th in New York. I have to say that Sarah Michelle Gellar has done well with her career if you compare her with somebody like for example, Lynda Carter (Wonder Woman). Even though SMG has done some movies that sucked, but somebody like Lynda Carter who is well known for playing wonder woman (a woman with so much strength) didn't really have a good movie career. However SMG has had 7 US BOX OFFICE NO.1s like I know what you did last summer, Scream 2, Scooby Doo, Scooby Doo 2: Monsters unleashed, The Grudge The Grudge 2 and TMNT (Teenage mutant ninja turtles). I have to admit that she has done well through her career. And now SMG doing a drama series is good for her and she won't have to be typecast all the time. I hope this'll be a success.

There are also reports that a new Teenage mutant ninja turtles movie has been green lit and it will be a live action movie for 2011. The writers want Sarah Michelle Gellar to reprise her role as April. I hope she will come back.

She needs to stop doing horror and live action animation remakes IMO ... I'm excitied she's doing something on HBO. I can see Sarah having great success on a cable TV show, something a little left of centre, like Mary Louise Parker on Weeds or Anna Paquin on Tru Blood.

The early review of the pilot's script says it's really brilliant. It's a Whedonesque post, last week I guess. It's a bit spoilerish but I read it and it makes me reaaaaally anxious, 'cause I admire SMG so much and she deserves better roles than the ones she's usually getting (except The Air I Breathe, The Return and Suburban Girl, which are really good roles. And The Air I Breathe is a great movie also).
And she's also doing Veronika Decides to Die. Paulo Coelho is the biggest-seller here in Brazil, and I really liked this book. It's flawed in some narrative aspects, but the story's essence and psychological density is fantastic. It's really deep and insightful, and we know Sarah is masterful with pain and grief. ;D

I don't know if I want to read the script because I want to wait until I see the first episode.

I really wanna see this. Sarah will be amazing. I just wonder if her new baby will get in the way of some of the stuff planned?

Bad news guys, the series was not picked up, HBO passed on the pilot. After HBO announced on Wednesday that Amy Sherman-Palladino was to produce a show which has a very similar premise to TWM various fans asked around and today word came back from Nathan Corddry ''didn't get picked up.. boo!''

Well that's a disappointment. I was really looking forward to seeing her on television again.

Same here, what do you think she'll do next, do you think she'll give another try with movies?

Maybe this will give her time to think about doing a Buffy related project
