Origins

Writer Joss Whedon says that "Rhonda the Immortal Waitress was really the first incarnation of [the Buffy concept], just the idea of some woman who seems to be completely insignificant who turns out to be extraordinary."[7] Whedon developed Buffy to invert the Hollywood formula of "the little blonde girl who goes into a dark alley and gets killed in every horror movie."[8] Whedon wanted "to subvert that idea and create someone who was a hero."[8] He explained:
“     The very first mission statement of the show, is the joy of female power: having it, using it, sharing it.[9]     ”

The concept was first visited through Whedon's script for the 1992 movie, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which featured Kristy Swanson in the title role. The director saw it as a "pop culture comedy about what people think about vampires."[10] Whedon disagreed: "I had written this scary film about an empowered woman, and they turned it into a broad comedy. It was crushing."[11] The script was praised within the industry,[12] but the movie was not.[13]

Several years later, Gail Berman, a Sandollar Productions executive, approached Joss Whedon to develop his Buffy concept into a television series.[14] Whedon explained that "They said, ‘Do you want to do a show?’ And I thought, ‘High school as a horror movie.’ And so the metaphor became the central concept behind Buffy, and that’s how I sold it."[15] The supernatural elements in the series stood as metaphors for personal anxieties associated with adolescence and young adulthood.[16] Whedon went on to write and partly fund a 25-minute unaired Buffy pilot[17] that was shown to networks and eventually sold to the WB Network. The latter promoted the premiere with a series of History of the Slayer clips,[18] and the first episode aired on March 10, 1997.

Executive producers

Joss Whedon was credited as executive producer throughout the run of the series,[19] and for the first five seasons (1997-2001) he was also the show runner (a role that involves serving as head writer and being responsible for every aspect of production). Marti Noxon took on the role for seasons six and seven (2001-2003), but Whedon continued to be involved with writing and directing Buffy alongside projects such as Angel, Fray and Firefly.[19] Fran Rubel Kuzui and her husband, Kaz Kuzui were credited as executive producers[20] but were not heavily involved in the show. Their credit, rights and royalties over the franchise relate to their funding, producing and directing of the original movie version of Buffy.[21]




起源

編劇Joss Whedon表示"Rhondal The Immoral Waitress是真正第一個具體化的概念，一個平凡無奇的女人成為不平凡的人的概念。"Whedon讓Buffy顛覆了好萊塢"嬌小的金髮女郎在每部恐 怖電影中都會走進暗巷然後被幹掉"的公式。Whedon想要"推翻那個印象並創造一個英雄。"他解釋："這部戲就是想要表現出女性力量的樂趣：擁有、使 用、分享。"

這個概念第一次出現在Whedon 1992年的電影劇本，魔法奇兵中。這部電影由Kristy Swanson主演。導演視此片為"關於人們如何看待吸血鬼的流行喜劇"，Whedon不同意"我寫的是關於擁有強大力量女人的恐怖電影，結果她們把他拍 成喜劇片，真是毀了這部片。" 這個劇本在業界頗受好評，但電影則不然。

幾年後，Gail Berman，一位Sandollar製作公司的主管邀請Joss Whedon將他的Buffy劇本發展為電視影集。Whedon表示"他們問『你想要做個節目嗎？』我就想『高中恐怖電影』所以這個隱喻就變成Buffy 的中心概念。"影集裡面的超自然元素也成為暗喻青春期和成人期前期的個人焦慮。Whedon寫了25分鐘未上映的試播劇本，最後被WB電視網買下。之後 WB在宣傳時使用了一系列的剋星歷史影片，第一集正式於1997年三月十日播映。

執行製作人

Joss Whedon 在影集播映時在片頭名單被稱為執行製作人的身份。而在前五季(1997-2001)時他也同樣是節目執行者(同時為主編劇及負責製作的各部門)。 Marti Noxon在第六及第七季時(2001-2003)接管了節目執行，但Whedon依然負責寫劇本和導演Buffy同時的企畫如Angel，Fray及" 衝出寧靜號"。Fran Ruble Kuzui和她的丈夫，Kaz Kuzui同樣被列為執行製作，但地位較輕。他們的權利及版稅是特許的，因為他們負責製作和指導電影版的Buffy。


因為翻到Firefly所以稍微找了一下資料
