Alyson Hannigan Thought She Completely Bombed Her 'Buffy The Vampire Slayer' Audition

Alyson Hannigan thought she completely screwed up her audition for Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

In a new interview with People, the -year-old actress opened up about her chemistry read for the popular show.

“I walked into a door,” she revealed. “And I forgot all my lines.”

Alyson continues, “I had done the same lines for about eight call backs and for this particular time, it was a chemistry read with me, Sarah [Michelle Gellar] and Nick [Brendon]. Joss [Whedon, showrunner] wrote a new scene especially for this audition and it was all this computer stuff – my character was very computer savvy – and it was all this computer jargon.”

“We got to that part and the words just all started swimming, and I don’t think I was speaking English,” she added. “Joss later told me that ‘you couldn’t say the words to save your life, but I knew right then and there’.”

Alyson‘s new show, Girl Scout Cookie Challenge, premieres on Food Network tonight, February 3.

Just recently, Sarah showed her support for a Buffy reboot.
