Charisma Carpenter Reveals How She Thinks Social Media Would Have Impacted 'Buffy' and 'Angel' Fandoms Back in the Day

Charisma Carpenter revealed how she thinks social media would have affected 'Buffy' and 'Angel' fan culture had it existed when the shows initially aired during an appearance on the 'RE-VAMPED with Juliet Landau' podcast.

Carpenter sat down for a conversation about all things Buffy and Angel on the RE-VAMPED with Juliet Landau podcast, which published on March 27. During the discussion, the actress said that the shows were already getting strong audience responses on the internet back when they were on the air — and she thinks the presence of social media only would have heightened the intense fan culture surrounding both series. Turning the conversation to her career as a whole during her appearance on the podcast, Carpenter opened up about what she wished she had known when she first started out as an actress — and specifically said she would tell her younger self to have a “plan B” given the constantly evolving nature of the industry.
