Eight whole years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: Sarah Michelle Gellar\u2019s Statement<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So what does he have to say about the writer-director\u2019s treatment of Charisma? Not much. Unlike other cast members who have hinted at other bad behavior, the vampire heartthrob isn\u2019t speaking \u2014 he\u2019s listening. He tweeted in response to Charisma\u2019s initial post on Sunday:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI am here for you to listen and support you.

Charisma actually responded:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI know you\u2019re there for me, David.

Good! After all, they only worked together for seven seasons, before Cordelia was written off the show, allegedly in retaliation for her daring to get pregnant while being an actor on a Joss Whedon show.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of which, we also heard from another vamp over the weekend.\u00a0<strong>James Marsters<\/strong>, who played the lovelorn villain Spike on both <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a>, wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWhile I will always be honored to have played the character of Spike, the Buffy set was not without challenges. I do not support abuse of any kind, and am heartbroken to learn of the experiences of some of the cast.

Boreanaz, Marsters, even\u00a0<strong>Anthony Stewart Head<\/strong>, who wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI\u2019ve been up\u2026 most of the night just running through my memories, thinking, \u2018What did I miss?\u2019 \u2026 I am gutted, I\u2019m seriously gutted.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>They\u2019re all men.<\/p>\n<p>Did the creator of one of the biggest feminist icons in TV history also have a problem with mistreating women?
