Charisma speaks about her departure from Angel!

[VisionGuy]

A friend sent me this video cause he knows I'm such a Cordelia fan. Anyway, I thought it was very interesting how she finally spoke about how the whole thing that went down from season 4 to season 5 and how she felt about it.

If it's a repost then I'm sorry.

It's nice to see actors able to be so honest instead of having to pussyfoot around so they don't get fired.

 

[Kean]

I watched this whole panel a few months back, all I can say is that I want Charisma to be my BFF. Love her.

 

[Emzzie]

Ya, I posted this video a while back in one of the threads. Really interesting stuff! At least they sort of forgave each other after. I still think it was meanish on Joss's part. Julie Benz makes me laugh, "I did not approve." 😀

 

[Wishing Oceans]

I love it. 😀 Charisma is so awesome, she's just like Cordy. 🙂

 

[Black Eye Guy]

Wow, I've never seen this before, I've heard the rumours but to hear it from her is totally awesome.

She is awesome, I love her, she hot and funny and so confident, she's actually amazing.

You can totally tell how much she cared about the character, love how she knew the no. of the episode Glen Quinn exited, that shows she knows her stuff which is cool

I lost of bit of respect for Joss Whedon, he didn't even call her to tell her, thats a load of crap.

 

[kitty-cat]

Wow, I've never seen any interview with her. It's kinda cool that she shares my opinion about season 4 and the whole cordy/connor-thing...I never got that

Interesting how it seems she buried the hatchet with Joss. It means if the show ever comes back with Joss involved Cordelia could appear although finding a way to bring her back would be hard i suppose.

 

[thevikingsgirl]

Can someone tell me the gist of what she said so I don't have to watch it? it's long. I hate attention issues with celebrity interviews.

 

[Buffy Summers]

LOVED her comment about Connor lol

 

[Allie]

I have always hated that Cordy wasn't in Season 5. I did also lose some respect for Joss, that sucks that she was let go and how the whole situation was handled.

 

[VisionGuy]

I freaking died when the fan said the energy of the show changed when Cordelia left and Charisma was like, "I know! It's cancelled!" LMAO!

I also loved when she said she didn't understand the relationship with Connor and Julie was like, "I didn't approve of it." LMAO!

This was a very interesting panel. I'm gonna watch the rest of the videos. It's like heaven for me with Kristy Swanson and Charisma Carpenter together in one place.

 

[Willow-Tree]

I rewatched this, and I just feel so bad for Charisma.

And I do blame it on Joss. I honestly do. And her thinking she wasn't part of his "plan"!? =[

 

[Cohen]

Wow. I kinda lost some respect for Joss, the way I did for Brenda Hampton with what she did to Mary on 7th Heaven. And Shonda Rhimes with some of the Izzie/George stuff from recent seasons of Grey's Anatomy. Like, leave your personal vendettas out of storytelling. Don't ruin a character because you have a problem with the person who portrays that character. And to not even tell her she wouldnt be back for s5? Low blow. IMO, she should have been herself in the s4 finale, and they should have never gone to W&H. If it wasnt for the amazing 100th episode.. that would have been nearly nonredeemable.

 

[Big Damn Hero]

I've seen this before but it's always worth a re-watch. I have more and more respect for Charisma every time I see it 🙂

 

[frankie]

I had never seen this. It's nice to see her embracing her inner-Cordelia. Charisma used to always say in interviews that she wished she could be more like Cordy when it came to saying what's on her mind. I guess she's there now. 🙂 I always felt like Joss punished her, nice to hear her talk about it so honestly, while still remaining respectful to him.

 

[Tasha]

I watched all this a while ago. I love how she acts exactly like Cordy. and she sounds the same too. 🙂

 

[MinwaraYana]

I watched it a while ago when Emzzie and Tranq posted it. It made me love Charisma more. I don't know what to say about Joss. I think it's hard to write Cordy in the good way when she's pregnant.

Her "I know. It was canceled." will always be in my heart. 😀

 

[TheChosenTwo]

Oh my god, I love her even more now. She's so adorable. What a sweet woman.

 

[Misty]

I love Charisma even more lol. Even though she did tell Joss at the last minute that she was pregnant, I still think Joss and the writers ruined Cordelia. Also I love how she doesn't like the Cordy/Connor fling!
