Alyson Hannigan joins the Scoobies for PaleyFest

Weep no more: The artist formerly known as Willow is confirmed for the big Buffy the Vampire Slayer reunion at PaleyFest next month. Alyson Hannigan will attend the Buffy panel as part of the 25th annual event sponsored by The Paley Center, formerly known as The Museum of Television & Radio. (Thanks for the tip, AfterEllen.com readerlookherecheers!) Now officially confirmed along with Alyson for the March 20 reunion are series creator Joss Whedon, Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy), Amber Benson (Tara), Nicholas Brendon (Xander), Emma Caulfield (Anya), Eliza Dushku

(Faith), Charisma Carpenter (Cordelia), Seth Green (Oz), James Marsters (Spike) and Michelle Trachtenberg (little Dawnie). You know what this news means, right? Right? Yes, the Willow and Tara reunion we’ve been dreaming

about for six years could still happen. I feel like lighting an extra flamey candle to celebrate. Anyone else?

Alyson is one of the last Scoobies to sign on. Former Buffy beau Angel (David Boreanaz)told TVGuide.com he has a family commitment that day but will tape a special greeting for fans to air during the event. So that leaves Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) as the lone core Scooby holdout. No word yet on whether he’ll cross the pond for the occasion. Since Buffy left the air five years ago, Alyson has been on of its busiest former cast members. For the last three seasons, she has been gainfully employed on the CBS sitcom How I Met Your Mother. While the lesbian Wiccan lovers quotient on the show is sadly lacking (so far, at least), it does boast the hilarious Neil Patrick Harris (a gay man playing a ladies’ man), so that makes it fairly awesome in my book. So, who here already has her ticket? And will Miss Kitty Fantastico make an appearance?
