Maybe that's the problem for her. Is there anything we haven't seen her do as Buffy and that doesn't remind us of Buffy?

Malcolm, I know what you mean. When I watched The Grudge, I kept urging her to kick more butt, as if me talking to the screen would make a difference. She just didn't seem like "herself" as Karen. I can't wait to check out her new flicks.

It's interesting she's taking that attitude compared to her cover picture from Rolling Stone in 1998, whcih was even racier. I'll be looking for that Maxim issue, and Southland Tales, whcih is coming to my neighborhood next week.

Sarah has mentioned (in her MArie CLaire interview) that she finds the roles in features to be very restricted versuss a part in an hour weekly drama, but she knows that's part of the medium.

She looks amazing, which isn't a shocker since I don't think she really knows how to take a HORRIBLE picture. Be snagging this up when it comes.

Looking good, Sarah. She could totally still play Buffy.

So it turns out stockings are sexy, who knew ?
(she's been air-brushed away to buggery right enough but I think that's par for the course with these sorts of magazines)
Also, in a weird convergence, Rachel "The Inside" Nichols was "Yesterday's Girl" apparently (I think they just mean "the day before today" rather than "Like, so yesterday" ;). If Eliza Dushku ends up "Tomorrow's Girl" it's a Whedonverse trifecta (sort of).

Maybe its my affection for the character she played in Sunnydale. Similarly, its the same for Aly Hannigan. When I see her in Maxim showing skin, it's like she's playing or pretending to be sexy. Whereas a normal shot of AH (like the recent one of her from the picket lines) is just way hotter. IMO.

This is a nice set though IMO (air-brushing aside). SMG's posing but not posed and that, for me, makes all the difference.

Yowza.

Uh, lots of us!

Double shower? Could be seen as TMI, altho not so much these days.
And her comments about where she is in life superficially sound like she's going wild but not if you read them with both eyes open. She's enjoying herself; as long as it's not interefering with ehr working or with other essentials, it's not a problem. And as long as she's the one making the decisions and not the activities themsleves. And knowing she's not quite ready to be a parent is good self-knowledge, it's not self-indulgence, and it can take guts to say. (Looking back I can see why Topping once described "Brit" as SMG's then-friend when writing about S-5. Sarah seems to understand most of the things that particular pop singer doesn't.)

Sexy to me, in man or woman, is always about complete comfort in your skin. Looking at these pics... it just doesn't feel like any truth of SMG is coming through, which is ridiculously high-minded on anything to do with a Maxim spread, but there you go. That's my brain in a nutshell.

(And if I could remember who posted it before, I'd give credit.)
(And if it shouldn't be posted for some other reason I missed, I expect to be rightly smacked down by a mod. =)
I think Sarah looks great and very comfortable in her own skin (in particular in that crouching pose with the bra and the heels and... whew, heart rate...). I think in the past few years she's developed a sophistication beyond "girl next door", even evident on Buffy (after Joyce died and she got The Weight of the World on her shoulders). I would prefer a little softer makeup on her, but that's about it.

Whenever one of our verse gals does these type of shots, I'm always supportive. You just know she had approval on the pics. I'm sure she enjoyed doing this and I hope that it made her feel very cool, sexy, and feminine.
The aspect of this I love the most is for when she's a granny. "Gather 'round, kiddos! See what a hottie Granny Sarah was?" Heee. Cute.

She looks hot and classy and that's all I have to say about that.
