Why You Rarely Hear About Sarah Michelle Gellar

Sarah Michelle Gellar ruled the '90s as Buffy Summers, teen vampire slayer, but the decades since have been more quiet ones for her. Here's why you rarely hear about Sarah Michelle Gellar.

Buffy The Vampire Slayer, starring Gellar in the title role, ran for seven seasons from 1997 to 2003. It laid the foundation for the spinoff show Angel, plus a pile of comic books, video games, action figures, and plenty of other Buffy-related media and memorabilia. Needless to say, it's an extremely popular and influential show. While it's not impossible for an actor to strike gold twice and play the main character on multiple monster-hit series, it's certainly improbable.

Gellar did get more high profile post-Buffy jobs than most of her castmates, with some notable exceptions. David Boreanaz and Alyson Hannigan both remained major television stars on Bones, which ran from 2005 to 2017, and How I Met Your Mother, airing from 2005 to 2014, respectively. Both shows also lasted longer than Buffy, but it would be a stretch to suggest either left a cultural footprint as enduring.
