You know, I feel so comfortable coming out to you with my Willow hate that I shall share my totally unfounded AH/JB conspiracy theory. Well, not conspiracy, just uncommon interpretation.
So, everybody always points to this interview AH did where she said how mean JB was to her during S1 Buffy. I took that at face value for a long time. Then I noticed something.
JB attends fan events and everybody and their brother, fans and her co-workers alike, talks about how completely dollsome she is. It turns out she's married to the freaking Cryptkeeper, which indicates she's not interested in A. Looks or B. Money. So she must be an actual beautiful girl who fell in love with an actual not beautiful, not wealthy, guy. No one else ever says a harsh word about JB...
But AH has trash-talked other actresses in her interviews, while nobody has ever trash-talked her in theirs. What's up with that? If these were real people (well, they are, but I mean real as in real to me, people I know) AH would be the one who'd get the arched eyebrow from me.
Maybe I'm just assigning AH the same manipulative, whiny, shrill personality I've assigned to Willow, but it does sort of seem like Joss has ended up writing the characters to fit the personalities of the actors. JB could be a poser. But I suspect Hannigan is the bitca, m'self. =)
