SMG Returns to TV

Brillant news, the idea sounds intriquing too. I just hope they pick it up, seeing Sarah again would be wonderful.
 
Awesome! I'm so glad she's in TV again! I'm definitely going to watch, and I hope it goes well. sound interesting enough 😀
 
I just saw this on a website and had to get over here straight away, super excited. About time SMG, let's hope its a cracking series. SMG back on a regular basis, me like!!!
 
Does it make me a bad fan if I'm not overly excited yet? The premise of the show seems a little cliche and I get the feeling that it's not actually confirmed yet. I'm going to hope for the best for Sarah, she's had terrible luck (choices) with movies, so hopefully this works for her!

If that makes you a bad fan at least you're in good company. ;)

Now, I really hope it'll get picked up, but I really think she'll have luck with this.. she's an amazing tv actress, and I hope she realized that. I don't mind if I see her in a movie every once in a while, but I would really like to see more television work.

Kind of confused. It says SMG returns to TV and they call it the first picked up PILOT of the season, but pilot means kind of like the flagship episode, as in once the pilot is complete THAT is when they'll decide whether to pick up the SERIES. Any confirmation that the SERIES/SEASON was actually picked up by CBS and not just to greenlight the pilot?

That's what I'm confused about too: so they've ordered the pilot, right? That means the pilot hasn't been shot? So then they'll make a decision whether to pick up the series? Are we talking about for the fall '11 TV season?

I'm nowhere near excited at the moment. But I'm hopeful. That's good enough for me.

I'm trying not to get too excited either, Wash, trying not to get my hopes up LOL. However, I do like the premise of the show: I think I'd stab myself if it was another medical drama, supernatural/ghost/vampire show, or procedural crime drama. There are plenty of those. This sounds different. And twins! That could definitely be interesting.
 
This show seems VERY exciting. I can't wait to see it! Although, it will be so weird that she will be on TV again, and NOT playing Buffy. 🙁 Makes me a little sad.

Exciting new details have emerged about Sarah Michelle Gellar’s new CBS series, Ringer, which sounds potentially even more intriguing than the goings on in Buffy’s old Sunnydale universe.

If her pilot is picked up, Sarah Michelle will star as twin sisters, Bridget Cafferty and Siobhan Marx. Bridget, we’ll learn, is a recovering addict who is about to testify in court against a dangerous murderer. The morning of the trial, she slips away and goes on the run from the FBI. With no where else to go, she reaches out to her estranged sister, Siobhan, who seems to have it all: money, clothes, a ritzy Upper West Side apartment and a loaded, hot hubby named Andrew.

Soon after Bridget contacts her sister, Siobhan commits suicide — or so it seems.

This twist of fate allows Bridget to assume her “dead” sister’s identity, unaware of just how messed up Siobhan’s life secretly is. It doesn’t take long for Andrew to notice that something’s off about his wife.

Other characters Bridget (as Siobhan) will have to fool: Siobhan’s BFF, Gemma, an architect who has been renovating Siobhan and Andrew’s new, even more luxurious pad. Interestingly, Gemma has a pair of twins of her own. Could her knowledge of twins help her figure out what Bridget has done?

It also turns out that Gemma has a crummy marriage to Henry, an out-of-work alcoholic novelist who’d been having a torrid affair with Siobhan! Naturally, he comes to question why his mistress no longer seems into him.

Bridget must also steer clear of the muscular FBI Agent Victor Machado, who tracks his escaped witness to New York, where he finds only Siobhan. All this stress will test Bridget’s sobriety. Too bad her AA sponsor — good looking black community college professor, Malcolm Howard — is all the way back in Wyoming. Seems there may have been something more brewing between Bridget and Malcolm outside of their AA meetings.

So Buffy fans, does this storyline excite you enough to watch Sarah Michelle Gellar in this new role? Err… Make that roles because you know it’s probably just a matter of

time before “dead” Siobhan turns up very much alive.
