I just finished Gossip Girl, so Georgina Sparks gets my vote for Michelle Trachtenbergs best character outside of the buffyverse. Underrated.

What are your favourite characters played by the cast of Buffy?
 
Pretty much love Nathan Fillion in anything but am particularly looking forward to the next season of The Rookie and seeing him portray my least favourite Green Lantern in the upcoming Superman film. I liked DB in SEAL Team but I'm a sucker for those military procedurals...is that a thing?
 
I’m gonna say we’re sticking with bigger characters only, otherwise Pedro Pascal would count.

I still think Sarah was great as Daphne in the live action scooby doo movies. That’d probably be my choice outside of Nathan Fillion

And one of Amy Adams' first roles was an appearance in Buffy!

Love Georgina Sparks! You can tell Michelle is having so much fun in the role!

My favourite Sarah role is Helen Shivers in IKWYDLS and I also love Kathryn Merteuil in Cruel Intentions.

I think Alyson is really good in HIMYM and I also love her as Michelle in the first two American Pie films.

Anyone goes! Any guest stars, or those in heavy makeup - happy to hear all your favourite roles by the any of the cast.
 
Amy Adams I guess.

From Cousin Beth to Hollywood A-lister. That's pretty good.


I feel like ol' Pascal is suffering from over-exposure a bit and audiences are getting tired of him. Most notably in the latest Gladiator effort. Sorry, meant to type 'epic'.


But also Nathan Fillion- who's going to be in the upcoming new Superman movie- and David Boreanez (for consistency in TV land) are both good pics for successful Buffy actors.

Six Oscar nominations for Amy Adams!
As well as Amy Adams and Pedro Pascal for one episode guest stars, you have Summer Glau and Wentworth Miller in their first screen roles.
 
Which are your favourite roles by these stars in other projects?

Wentworth Miller, though I know he is known for Prison Break (which I haven't seen), I know of from his Arrowverse roles. Probably the first thing I saw him in. Summer Glau, although I have also seen her in the Arrowverse, I perhaps know best as a Terminator, as the Sarah Connor Chronicles were the first thing I saw her in.

Pedro Pascal, I just saw him in The Mandolorian; other than that the only thing I remember him in was Kingsman: The Golden Circle. Amy Adams I have seen in so very many things. And YouTube recently thought I might enjoy a video made up of clips of the most memorable thing about Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian. (If you have seen that film, you can likely guess at the subject!)
 
I mean I'll always love Sarah and Seth in Scooby Doo live action movies. 😀

Also, it's silly but as a kid I found this scene hilarious and acted it out all the time 🤪:

 
I love the episode of SPN Amy Acker was in. Can't remember the name of the episode, but it's a good one.

David on Bones is great.

And SMG in Cruel Intentions is ICONIC.

Dead in the Water - the third episode! I looked it up because otherwise it would have bugged me. 😀

I knew her first from Person of Interest, which I am currently rewatching.
 
A fair number of actors showed up in Supernatural (This list is only Buff/Angel characters with significant roles. It does not include actors who were only in one episode to begin with):

Julie Benz (Darla): Appeared as Layla Rourke in Season 1, Episode 12, "Faith".
Charisma Carpenter (Cordelia Chase): Played Maggie Stark in Season 7, Episode 5, "Shut Up, Dr. Phill".
James Marsters (Spike): Played Don Stark in Season 7, Episode 5, "Shut Up, Dr. Phill".
Amy Acker (Fred Burkle/Illyria): Played Andrea Barr in Season 1, Episode 3, "Dead in the Water".
Mercedes McNab (Harmony Kendall): Appeared as a vampire in Season 3, Episode 7, "Fresh Blood".
Keith Szarabajka (Daniel Holtz): Appeared as the prophet Donatello Redfield in several episodes.
Christian Kane (Lindsey McDonald): Played Lee Webb in Season 15, Episode 7, "Last Call".
Harry Groener (Mayor Richard Wilkins): Played a professor in Season 1, Episode 10, "Asylum".

David played a surprisingly effective villain in the movie "Valentine".

Mercedes McNabb was in two of the Hatchet movies.

Felicia Day, who had the recurring role of Vi, one of only three potentials whose name I can remember, also had the recurring role of Charlie Bradbury in Supernatural. So inbetween major roles and one-offs.
