Alika King, 20, always gets Carl's Jr. French fries with ranch dressing and a large Dr Pepper at the Fashion Square mall. That stuff about those "old" movies being filmed at the Galleria doesn't impress her. "They filmed part of Clueless and Buffy the Vampire Slayer here at this mall," King points...
...Sarah Michelle Gellar movie." Indeed, the trailer for the film was in every commercial break of Gellar's Buffy the Vampire Slayer over the last few weeks, and the audience of that show is the best one for this overcooked Valentine. The plot centers around Gellar's Amanda Shelton, a young woman whose mother has died and left her to run the family restaurant.

Here, Doherty would seem to fit into the Jaclyn Smith mold--easily the most beautiful one but not necessarily the sexiest. (Alyssa Milano gets the Farrah Fawcett-Majors pinup part, while Holly Marie Combs...
...will talk about market niches, brand loyalty, cable affiliates and so on. All of which is very interesting and valid but misses the point. The key to the WB's success is this: babes, male and female. With the glossy yet smoldering Sarah Michelle Gellar of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the coltish Katie Holmes of Dawson's Creek, the Phoebus-like Barry Watson of 7th Heaven and all the rest, the WB has the best-looking stars on TV. Is this business really so very complicated...
