I just stumbled upon this by accident. There is some really great little inside jokes and insights into what went on in both shows, including how pissed she was that they killed Cordy off.

I really like how honest she is about the whole thing and it is clear that she cared deeply both for her character and the show itself.

Favourite part-Charisma telling how Joss referred to Oz's first Wolf costume as the "Ambiguously gay possum". LMFAO

Buffyphiles?! Buffyphiles?! that just REEKS of something Illegal!
haha, ive seen glimpses of this elsewhere, or at least i recognize it in someway. But thats for sharing! She looks stunning even when shes clearly not dressed to be 'stunning'.

Actually, compare this with Paley and its a pretty stark contrast....hearing her speak I mean.

Yeah, i've watched this many times. It's great. I like her honesty to .
 
wait...as im watching this...she Rock climbs....hmmmm.....starting to like Charisma EVEN more!

---Still watching...

When she starts talking about Glenn, was a very heart warming moment. I dont think ive seen her be quite so 'human' in interviews before.

Obviously looking somewhere else...I don't know why!
I like that she freely admits that season 4 was Angels weakest season too!

Actually, most the comments she comes out with is new information and a little more insight into the filming of both Angel and Buffy. For those who havent watched this entire thing, i highly recommend it, thanks again Kean!
 
I love her reaction to season 4...and her snarky comment about VK...if it's possible I love her and Cordy even more now. lol
 
I loved these, thanks Kean.

It was nice to see her in the limelight for a change, rather than falling into the scenery, like at the Paley.

I loved her speaking about Glenn, it was so touching.

I knew she was pissed about 'You're Welcome' but it was strange to see just HOW pissed. She was shafted, we all knew that, but learning how protective she was of Cordelia and how she felt about the 100th ep, it's made me respect Charisma a lot more.

One of my favorite Cordy moments is when she stakes the vamp in 'Graduation Day' I love that part so much. Like she said herself, Cordy was always the damsel, but she got to be the hero here. THIS is the moment when I saw her character change.

Knew you wouldn't be too fond of that part but you also know better than anyone how much I hated tha arc and what I think about VK. So her reaction above was...awesome for me lol
 
Commentary

LMFAO!!!! at her saying that everybody auditioned for Buffy and she was not heartbroken. I cannot imagine her as anybody else but Cordelia.

LMFAO MORE at "She can cheer. Let's make her the cheerleader!" She is also right when she said there is a bitch in everyone.

ULTIMATE LMFAO!!! at "It's my eye! I ONLY GET ONE!" I wouldn't expect her to show up for work with a scratched cornea either. I wonder what episode that was.

She was pissed that Alyson got the last line on that one episode of Veronica Mars. LOL

You can tell she still felt sad about Glenn Quinn passing.

She reminds me of my boss. LOL

She has the most chemistry with Nicholas Brendan? I would not have expected that.

LMFAO!!! at gay Xander! She is a mess. LMFAO!

YES CHARISMA SAID IT!!! CORDELIA HAS HAD SEX BEFORE XANDER!!! Right from the horse's mouth. I knew it.

She doesn't like to be the stupid one. I think stupid Cordy was cute. LOL

LMAO!!! at her saying that giving birth to a six foot gorgeous goddess is different than giving birth to her son who was the size of a watermelon.

Nice Cordelia was not boring! I love her.

Charisma thinks she would be a perfect Wonder Woman.

DIES at stunt worms.

Sarah threw a rubber snake at her? LMAO!

*pauses*

Wow, you can tell how much she cared about the character of Cordelia. The fact that she cried and thought she was being duped after she found out Cordy was gonna die in "You're Welcome" says a lot. It's really sad that she felt that Cordelia was an unresolved chapter in her life and she felt like she was actually living her. I agree with the fact that so much more could have been done. But I guess that's how the cookie crumbles.

This is making me want to watch BtVS and Angel.

LMAO! at "Lilah is such a bitch. I loved our scenes together. It's like a bitch off. Like who would win? And I would be upset if she win. I'M SUPPOSSED TO WIN!" I love her. LOL

"Good save mom." *jumps out of window*

'Where is my stake? What am I gonna hit the vampire with? A shoe?" -Charisma on her first vampire staking

Awww, she came back for the fans in the 100th episode even though she was being bitter they were killing her.

Random Dude: Do you have any possible explanation as to why Angel was cancelled after your character was killed off?
Charisma: I'm just saying, don't fire me.

Willow was her favorite biter. LOL

OMG!!! at her reaction when they asked if she liked working with Harmony, "Ugh, I'm not feeling that."

LMAO!!! at her "Can I barf now?" when she found out about sleeping with Connor.

LMFAO! MORE at "Trim your toe nails."

Review

I LOVED this panel discussion. I'm so glad she wasn't quiet here like she was at the Paley thing. She gave us more insight on the Cordelia character. The fact that Cordelia meant a lot to her makes me see Charisma in an entirely different light. I was really impressed with this. I'm gonna try to put this in my Ipod.

Agreed, how many other actors on the show do you think would have such a strong emotion?

Ive said before that I dont require actors to feel that way (VK), but when actors do show such a connection for their characters, i cant help but respect them more because they care about the character as much as me...instead of being a puppet.

Me too. I know to most actors a job is just a job but I have so much more time and respect for people who care, really care about what they are doing...not just the day to day of it but all of it. That women was so sincere and completely lacking in ego that you can't not admire her.

Also, did everyone else catch that James Marsters bit at the end? The claws were really out at that con! lol

I just thought it was funny...a few people have said that on here that is a pricey fecker and maybe not so nice too.

It was just interesting.

I honestly got a little confused at that point... Charisma asked if Jm was there... then the interviewer said something along the lines of "no, that would mean we'd pay $500 just to get in"...I took that away as disrespect against Charisma..as if she's the cheap one, the lesser actor to JM's genius. Maybe I heard it wrong though, especially since the rest of the crowd didnt make a big deal.

Oh, I thought they said they would have to pay James $500 for him to be at the discussion. Not that they would have to pay $500 for them to get in. I hope she wasn't their second choice.
