Do you have a favorite on or off screen, from your time on Buffy?
Juliet:After they hired me, they paired me with their two final choices for Spike. James [Marsters] came in and immediately we just bounced off each other. There was a moment during his audition-it was our very first scene of our first episode, and [Spike and Dru] are talking to the Annointed One. James came up to me as if we were going to kiss, and then we didn't and turned away from each other. And we ended up doing that scene, and it was kind of fun that it came in the inital meeting. They actually used it in the promo-"Evil has a few new faces." They used the actual thing.
Were you interested in horror as a child?
Juliet: No, actually, not really. But it's funny because the show doesn't feel like horror to me. The dark forces are used to show the high school expereince to the absolute extreme. High school is a horror movie, which we all can relate to. It's got humour, and a dark edge, and it bounces between scary and funny and tragic.
Drusilla is the most powerful female villian we've seen on television in a long time. How come Buffy has never beaten the crap out of you?
Juliet:Actually, what's interesting with Buffy and me is that (my character has)these visions and see's things, and her character has these dreams and premonitions. It's been sort of mind-to-mind combat, women battling wiht their minds. It's been interesting.
