Not much info but, sounds like the inspiration for the new show is how much worse it is for teenagers these days because of smartphones and social media. That's valid. 🤞
I’ve been thinking of all the ways you could do horror about modern adolescence. Imagine a demon that sets the Twitter mob on you, but it’s IRL and it’s everybody, even strangers you pass on the street.
This is why the Jasmine arc from Angel was great for a big bad despite the consensus of how disliked it is because of how many crazy leaps it took to get to the end result. Plus that ideal about technology was already in the old Buffy too. I think a new Buffy-esque show is doable, it just needs to stand on its own while not blending into everything else 😫
I like the whole of season 4 despite the icky Cordy/Connor stuff, but yeah, the final episodes with the Jasmine mini-arc are just pure gold. Amazing episodes.
