Prime Time Players by April P. Bernard

From Teen People - October 2001

Exhale - Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) will be back. 'Death is not the largest obstacle in Buffy's world,' says executive producer Marti Noxon. As for the rest of the Scooby Gang, they'll experience growing pains: Willow (Alyson Hannigan) and Tara (Amber Benson) help Buffy play mommy to Dawn (Michelle Trachtenberg), who is in adolescent hell, while Xander (Nicholas Brendon) and Anya (Emma Caulfield) take steps toward wedded bliss. Watch for more Spike (James Marsters), whose love for Buffy won't die as easily as she did; less Giles (Anthony Stewart Head); and a foe who's not so otherworldly as last year's freaky demigod, Glory. Set your VCRs: The sixth episode is an all-singing, all-dancing extravaganza.
