Reboot Fever Is About to Ruin 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer'

Just...no:
More from Page Six:

A TV reboot of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” is in development at 20th Century Fox Television, Variety has confirmed.

Original series creator Joss Whedon is onboard to executive produce, with writer Monica Owusu-Breen attached to write the script. The rebooted series will see a black actress take over the title role, which was played in the series by Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Gail Berman, Joe Earley, Fran Kazui and Kaz Kazui will also executive produce. No network is attached to the series, but it will no doubt stir up a bidding war among various networks and streaming services when it is taken to market.

The obvious first question that comes to mind here is "Does Joss Whedon really need the money that badly?"

The answer to that would seem to be "No":

AS a shut-in, I watch a lot of TV. I turn it on at 8 am and shut it off at 12 midnight. I have noticed a huge "Blackening" of the TV commercials. You would think our country was 50 to 60 % black. I have also noticed a dramatic increse of "Mixing the Races".
It is very alarming as to what Hollywood is trying to do to America. Our president has a lot of work to do to fix this country after 8 years of that black Muslim trash ruined it!
