OK, in Borders Book Store in Leeds today I was reading the latest Buffy/Angel magazine with David Boreanaz on the front cover.
As I was reading the updates of Whedonverse cast, I came across something that peaked some interest within me.
Apparently one of the Buffy The Vampire Slayer lead guys(a character who has had their name on the credits) is about to join the cast of ER.
I don't know much more because Buffy Mag didn't, but the ONLY people who they could see possible, as they don't have nearly as much work as DB and JM, was Marc Blucas and Nicholas Brendan.
They didn't mention ASH, but I don't think he'd join another American season mainstay show.
Has anyone got ANY information about this?
 
I think the rumor started on TV Guide,and it went like this. Oct. 18

Exclusive: Buffy Alum Rushed to ER?

You know that male-nurse role that ER is currently casting as a love interest for Linda Cardellini? I just heard that one of the finalists used to be on that little vampire show that Joss Whedon did a few years back. And this particular actor was not a mere guest star; he was a series regular. Name and face in the opening credits and all. He's up against some stiff competition for the plum ER part though, including a (Easter egg alert!) popular acting titan. A winner is expected to emerge by week's end. As soon as I know, you'll know (give or take a few seconds).

Then Oct. 22

ER Casting Update: Buffy Grad Drops Out

It appears Linda Cardellini won't be playing doctor with that Buffy alum after all.

The Whedonverse vet vying for the role of the new resident nurse and love interest to Cardellini's Sam on ER is no longer in the running, per a source close to the negotiations. An offer is now out to a certain acting [cough] titan who shall remain nameless until the deal is signed.

The waiting is always the hardest part.

Why anyone would want to join the cast of ER is beyond me. That show needs to hurry up and die.

I hear that. Remember the good days of Dr. Greene, Young Dr. Carter, and Dr. Ross. Man I miss that show.
Oh my oh my... I so completely and utterly agree. I watched that show for so very long. But only because of Abby. I was holding out 'till the end, my mantra was "I've watched for this long, I may as well keep watching".... untill Abby and Kovach FINALLY found what looked like a happy ending. At that moment, I gave in and tuned OUT. Enough. The end... at least for me, in my mind, that is the way it ended. Peace.

Sorry, I'm drunk... more than a little and I love me som elipese.
