Bays and Thomas were asked if they were considering adding any other regulars to the cast, causing Hannigan to jokingly whisper, "Alexis Denisof," the name of her husband. A fellow alum of Buffy and Angel, Denisof recently filmed a couple of guest appearances on How I Met Your Mother. Bays said they like building a strong supporting cast and could see Denisof returning. Hannigan joked that at first it seemed like all of Segal's previous costars were appearing and not hers and that she was telling the producers, "Oh, so you're big Buffy fans, but you've got like every Freak and Geek!" Thomas replied, "We finally caved; not that we're caving because we love Buffy so much. But we had her husband on, and that shut her up! And we've got Amy Acker from Angel coming up." "We're stealing all the Joss Whedon cast," added Bays. "There was a moment when we were shooting the finale when it was Amy, Alexis and Alyson and Nicholas Brendon just showed up to hang out. It was like everyone from every Joss Whedon show."
