Interviews | Michelle Trachtenberg
Maintaining the myth
Michelle Trachtenberg Does the amount of continuity in Buffy ever cause problems?

Actually, one of my favourite things to do whenever I'm on the set, whenever I'm reading a script is to go through each and every part, no matter what it is, every single detail I pay attention to, every single word, because each and everything is very important.

I love finding little references to the past seasons in the script, because I know exactly what they're talking about. I'm like, "Oh, I understand why, all those seasons back, that person decided to move to this town, it's because of what's happening now."

Continuity-wise, we have pretty good continuity girls, and our scripts advisors are always watching out for silly things like, in one scene, I was turned around this way and my hair was here, then when I turned around [it was wrong]. Things like that they catch right away, they're really really great about that.

I'm usually the one who leaves a water bottle on set, because it gets thirsty under those bright lights.
