Life is stranger than fiction department

Did you know that although she was not credited by name, one of the executive producers of Buffy the Vampire Slayer was none other than Dolly Parton? Really. She had a production partnership (called Sandollar Entertainment) with Sandy Gallin, who had managed Dolly’s career. You gotta love it.
I wonder if that is why Buffy has the same birthday as Dolly? That’s January 19 for the uninformed, which, by the way, is also our mother’s birthday. Sometimes life just really makes perfect sense.


Now that’s some serious trivia knowledge — how on earth did you come across that amazing tidbit?
I knew you’d be impressed. Actually I ran across the Dolly being a producer tidbit when looking for a Buffy quote on IMDB. I already knew that Buffy and Dolly shared a birthday with our mother, because we’ve been celebrating all 3 for years!
