New Day Dawns On Buffy

From SciFiTV - July 23rd, 2001

Buffy may be dead, but her little sister Dawn is alive and kicking, Michelle Trachtenberg told SCI FI Wire about her Buffy the Vampire Slayer character. In the show's upcoming sixth season--its first on UPN--"I would like to see Dawn again go through a whole rainbow of emotions, just like she did last season, except even more intense, and even, you know, more happier," Trachtenberg said in an interview. "Just a whole rainbow of emotions."

But the 15-year-old actress remained coy about her character's new season. "She's gone through a lot of changes," she said. "I never really like to suggest things that you can expect of my character, mostly because I really don't know, and secondly, because that way you're not surprised. ... It's kind of like, whatever you'd like to see Dawn do, think about it, and maybe she'll surprise you." Buffy debuts on UPN on Oct. 9.
