POST-BUFFY SHOWS

Spotted in Chicago Tribune:

The fall TV schedule will have a distinct Sunnydale feel to it, Zap2it.com reports.

Alyson Hannigan (CBS' "How I Met Your Mother"), Nicholas Brendon (Fox's "Kitchen Confidential") and David Boreanaz (Fox's "Bones") are all starring in new shows, while Charisma Carpenter has landed a recurring part on UPN's "Veronica Mars."

Hannigan and Brendon will be competing directly for viewers -- their shows are opposite one another at 9:30 p.m. Mondays. The former Willow says "How I Met Your Mother" and "Kitchen Confidential" film on the same lot, so she and Brendon (Xander) have had the chance to talk some good-natured trash about which show will win the ratings battle.

She also says that at least in Brendon's mind, the two shows might have somewhat different audiences.

"Nick said to me, `I think your show goes for the younger crowd, and ours is sort of for older, gay men,'" Hannigan says.

Hannigan does say that she and Brendon have found one common cause: A plan is afoot to TP ex-Angel Boreanaz's car while he's shooting elsewhere on the lot.
