Nicholas Brendon, who you Whedonites will probably remember as Xander from "Buffy The Vampire Slayer", isn't exactly doing so hot right now. And by that, I mean he got drunk, defaced private property, and then got tased by the police and arrested. Oh come on, not Xander! Why couldn't it have been stupid Riley?
"Buffy the Vampire Slayer" star Nicholas Brendon fell short in the slaying department a few hours ago, after he allegedly swung at a couple of cops, and then went on a misguided foot chase.
Law
enforcement sources tell TMZ they received a call that a drunk man was
causing a commotion in Venice, CA. When police responded, sources say
Brendon took a swing at cops. (Source)
Ugh, really? Wasn't there a very special episode of Buffy where she drinks evil beer and gets turned into a caveman or something? Is that what this is about? Evil magical beer? Come on, man, BEER BAD! BEER BAD!!! And seriously, tased? They
tased Xander? I can't believe it ... He closed the Hellmouth for Christ's sake. You, my good sirs, have electrocuted an American Hero.
I saw him in some terrible Lifetime "thriller" not too long ago, and he looked rough, and I remembered hearing somewhere that he's an alcoholic, and I Googled it, and everything said he's in recovery now, so...
Goddamn. Poor little guy.
Well at least he hasn't has his eyeball poked out...
Dawn tased him for the finale. haha. Repeat, much?
