Alyson Hannigan announces she's pregnantPeople magazine reported this morning that Alyson Hannigan and husband Alexis Denisof (Angel, Buffy) are expecting their first child, according to Hannigan's rep.
The Willow-Wesley spawn is due to enter this dimension this coming spring. As any real Buffy fan will tell you, Hannigan and Denisof met on the set during Season 3, when Watcher Wesley Wyndham-Pryce transferred to Sunnydale to keep a persnickety eye on that juvenile delinquent slash Slayer, Faith (Eliza Dushku). After a spell of bad timing (they were both dating other people) and Hannigan's adherence to some silly rule against dating people she worked with, the couple finally got together when Denisof's character was moved from her show to the Buffy spin-off, Angel.
Thank goodness for crossover episodes and low budget films like Beyond City Limits. Dating someone you work with? No. Working with someone you're dating? Sure! It's a fine line. There's not much to report when a celebrity becomes pregnant if we know who the father is and drugs aren't involved. But since we're here, let's take a look back through the years at Willow, I mean Alyson, from cute teen to hot soon-to-be baby mama.
The softer side of Sears, 1997.
Willow's idea of a hot Halloween costume, Season 2.
Getting flamey with Tara, 2000. Magic was a metaphor for the motherland.
Evil Willow, Season 6. What? You never went off the rails at some point in your life?
With Kennedy, Season 7. All grown-up now. Never did make it back to Boystown, did she?
Present day. Lovely — and about to grow. What was your favorite Submitted by on October 22, 2008 - 4:00pm. |

love her best now
she looks fantastic these days on how i met your mother! That last picture of her is gorgeous, and i LOVE that necklace she's wearing. cant wait to see how the writers of HIMYM are going to handle this - are marshall and lily expecting? alyson's always been a great actress with fantastic comedic timing, and i love that she gets to exploit that now. she and alexis make an adorable couple, and im genuinely excited for them!

Darn.
I'll admit I loved her the most when she was a hopeless nerd, rambling nonsensical statements. And I'm not really a fan of her in anything besides Buffy.. So, congrats. I'm not jealous -- honest..
Oh well. The baby will be cute. And they seem genuinely happy together, so I'm glad for them. :]
not to be nitpicky but....
her eskimo costume in season two comes from inca mummy girl, where they had the international party, not the halloween episode. in the halloween episode, she was the slutty ghost. and what a wonderful slutty ghost she was.
that being said, that baby is going to be really adorable. alyson is awesome.
you're right
Halloween ftw
Screw the shame Dara, because Halloween in season 2 gets my vote!!
dude...
sigh... that's our little babymama...
Congrats to Alyson and Alexis!
Kind of a head scratcher, that one. How does a son go about being a baby mama anyway? :p That's really what went through my mind before I figured out it was a typo. 0=)
As to my favorite Alyson phase? All of them. Hands down.
Also, loved the motherland reference!
Favorite Willow/Alison Phase?
Definitely the "Softer side of Sears" phase.
It's so weird because I was JUST thinking about that very scene the other day.
EVIL WILLOW
Vamp Willow!
What, no Vamp Willow? Tisk, tisk. Dara, I'm disappointed:-P But oh, God, she was hot in that episode. Vamp Willow + Faith = the hottest episode ever.
"It might make Elizabeth Hasselbeck cry, but we're gonna do it." - Tina Fey
Vamp Willow!
"Vamp Willow + Faith = the hottest episode ever."
I second that!!
Favorite Phase
My favorite Willow phase was the end of the second season and into the third season Willow, when she was still geeky but more confident....and dating Oz.
I think I was the only lesbian that could not stand Willow and Tara hooking up. I adore Oz with a fiery passion, and I was totally distraught when he left the show. The scene when he discovers Willow and Tara are lovers and goes all crazy wolfman ("Is that her sweater? You smell like her. She's all over you, do you know that? Are you two involved?! Is she in love with you? Tell me! Is she?") completely broke my heart. I teared up. I felt so sorry for him!
Why, Seth Green? Why did you leave the show?!!!!
In my eyes, no pairing on Buffy will ever trump the adorableness and pure awesome of Willow/Oz.
"You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have sharks with frickin' laser beams attached to their heads!"
You know, I think I'm going
You know, I think I'm going to have to change my answer to this era.
Oh, and don't worry, you're not alone.
I was SO upset when she and Oz broke up. I hated Tara for a while, then I really liked her, but started liking Willow a bit less. Don't even get me started on Kennedy though. Ugh.
Willow and Oz were probably my very favorite pairing of the whole series.
Hard to pick one favourite
I'm happy for this cute couple. With parents like that, it will definitely be a cute spawn (especially if it takes after the mother).
As for picking a favourite Willow quote....well, that's kind of like picking a favourite episode. You find one and determine it's your favourite...but then you watch another and now there is a new favourite.
I guess I would say these are my current three favourite:
Doppelgangland (S3) - "It's really nice that you guys missed me. Say, you all didn't happen to do a bunch of drugs, did you?" and "It's horrible. That's me as a vampire? I'm so evil, and skanky. And I think I'm kind of gay."
The Initiative (S4) - "Then, talk. Keep eye contact. Funny is good, but don't be glib. And remember, if you hurt her, I will beat you to death with a shovel. A vague disclaimer is nobody's friend. Have fun!"
Triangle (S5) - "It's so cute. He balances a bunch of stuff, including that fish in the bowl. And-- but don't try it for real when you're six, because then you're not allowed to have fish for five years."
I'm sure I could keep on going......I haven't watched Season Six in awhile so I'm rusty there. Now I have a task for the upcoming weeks.
A cat sees no good reason to obey another animal, even if it does stand on two legs.
Sigh
Not it the least bored now
I'm not gonna lie - I love
OMG
I have to say that she looks gorgeous on the first picture so I would have to conclude that I like her the way she is now...
You should have cut off the husband part of the picture though ;-)

I've had a major crush on
AHHH!
I squealed when I read this. Aly's going to be a great mom! And their spawn is going to have the funniest set of parents ever, Wesley (oh right... Alexis) and Alyson are so hilarious.
I happen to be very biteable, pal. I'm moist and delicious.
all the time!
I would have to say, I love her all the time! haha, her in buffy as well as in American Pie, she was funny in there. But the one that really gets me is when she's with Tara...
Picture of 'light is like water' author
yeah for her I guess.
yeah for her I guess.
-Nathiest
the devil is in the details
weeeeird!
cos they will always just be willow and wesley i'm afraid... but awww i'm sure the kid will be really cute.
fave willow phase - season 4. with the short hair, and the new witchy/lesbian stuff... i think she made me gay :D
Beyond City Limits
That's probably one of the worst movies I've ever seen.
Yet I own it on DVD. How sad.
Oh I remember when I first saw that episode with Willow and Kennedy...

I blog, therefore, I am
I thought it was his rule

Vamp WIllow
didn't like dark Willow or her and Tara so much at first.. well i didn't dislike it its just she wa less sweet herself, cus suddenly she wasnt the one being looked after
