I can see the comics involve lots of benefits such as ; no-one will age faster than their character, I can imagine Joss has more creative control & can take things wherever he likes without blowing the budget e.t.c. I hadn't heard the SMG pregnancy rumor, though I must say though I keep tabs on many of the Whedonverse actors she's not really one of them. Great actress, but as a person she doesn't really interest me.

And yes Xander/Buffy/Willow/Dawn are family (as was Tara *Sniff*).

Yes I hope to Gods Willow has broken up with Kennedy. And not just 'cos I loved Tara (and Oz) , but because I disliked Kennedy & I felt they never had any chemistry. It kind of felt like 'hi I am gay' 'oh i am gay also. Lets make-out' :/
