I've just wasted way too much time on http://actualteenadultteen.tumblr.com/ lol, they put together a picture of an actor playing 16 or 17 alongside a picture of what they actually looked like when they were were that age. It's so weird to see Hollywood's example of what passes for teenage in tv and film










I always thought Sarah and Alyson passed okay actually (well Sarah was only 2 or 3 years older than the part anyway), but Nicky and Charisma were ridiculously obvious when they were both close to 30 and still playing 16/17 wtf. And Joss did hire an actual teenager for the part of Kendra unusually, but Bianca Lawson is 31 in the second pic and still playing a teenager...

they rarely include promo pics

I've always wondered why they never include trailers either. As a non-American who never got to see the original trailers I loved that the X-Files included the trailer for every single episode, I wish more shows would do that :/

And I like Joss's commentaries, and I remember liking Jane's, but yeah generally a lot of them were pretty dire. The commentary for Hell's Bells was particularly awful with them sshing one another not to talk over their favourite scenes wtf, instead of having notes prepared to actually talk about those scenes
