Joss Whedon gave Amy Acker some of Illyria's first scenes while they were attending Alexis Denisof and Alyson Hannigan's wedding.
Alexis joked, "Joss never stops working."
Amy said, "We did these scenes, that were never in the show, and we kind of worked the character, which is something you never get to do. [Joss] was flipping the colors on the lights and we tried it with red and then we tried it with blue and he was like, 'Oh yeah you're gonna be blue.'"
Charisma explained, "I guess I had indicated in a way [that] I was sharing a loss, like I was sad. I knew what was coming. And they didn't want it to be given away."
Amy revealed, "I just remember that at the end of the day we all went for a drink and were sitting in a bar and none of us spoke to each other. Apparently the shawarma scene at the end of Avengers was inspired by us just sitting there not talking."
She said, "Cordelia is a huge part of my life. It was the best role I've ever occupied to date. She's was a big part of my life, like seven years of playing the same character isn't lost on a person."
Charisma said executive producer Jeffrey Bell visited her on the set of Miss Match and told her how Cordelia was gonna die and she thought, "If you're going to go that's the way to go."
Also, Joss never knew what to do with Spike's character when he first started appearing regularly.
He remembered thinking "this is bliss."
He explained, "When you're working 12 to 15 hours a day and you're doing 22 episodes a year, I discovered levels of fatigue, I had no idea existed. And my short-term memory evaporated."
Amy continued, saying, "He was under a desk and he had the dirtiest mouth...We would all keep talking to the puppet like it was a real person."
For "Spin the Bottle," Charisma explained that it was rare that everyone got to be in scenes all together.
