A Buffy Christmas CarolDec 08 2009 05:42 am #1afgrulerofthepen
A few days ago, I watched "Mickey's Christmas Carol" and today I watched "A Muppet Christmas Carol." It got me thinking...What if there was a BtVS Christmas Carol? Who would you cast in each role and why? Whether it be because those characters' personalities match or you just think it'd be hilarious 

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
Holly has a really good "Christmas Carol" variation - but she uses primarily only Buffy in a loose connection to Scrooge and the three spirits are Doyle, Glory and an idealized third ghost.
With an entire telling of the story I would, in Season Six I would use:
Buffy - Scrooge
Spike - Bob Cratchit Buffy - Mrs. Cratchit post spirit reclamation
Dawn - Tiny Tim
Tara - Fred and Jonathan his wife (thinking personality not gender)
Tara - Fan and Belle
Anya - Jacob Marley & Joe
Clem - Fezziwig
Xander - Topper
Xander - Ghost of Christmas Present
Joyce - Ghost of Christmas Past
Giles - Ghost of Christmas Future

I remember that fic! I really liked it. Holly always writes great stuff.
Clem as Fezziwig, LOL! I love it!
Buffy would definitely be one of my top choices for Scrooge. Xander is another one, but it'd obviously go in a different direction then a Buffy/Spuffy focused Christmas Carol. Anya would be my third choice, just because of the whole money-loving aspect. Plus genderbending the characters would be hysterical.

My two favorite versions!
Yeah, Buffy's definitely a Scrooge potential.....just gets more and more negative with time and less social and nice.

maybe this should be the year that I watch the Muppet version - My Holiday Season begins every year with watching the Geroge Scott and Patrick Stewert versions of A Christmas Carol - I hate that I lost one of my audio tapes from Stewert's reading of this story - it is excellent.

Yeah, I love those, too. I'll watch just about any version on the Christmas Carol.
