Greetings, Curious Crowd! Well, it’s been quite the week as Jen and I are recovering from FanExpo Vancouver 2018 (it was quite the fun weekend and we have so much to discuss so let’s just dive right in with Day 1 of Panels.
Kristy Swanson
The panels kicked off Friday with the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Kristy Swanson. She credited Luke Perry for being one of the reasons why she got the role of Buffy, talked about her upcoming film involving a cursed voodoo doll, and gushed over her husband Lloyd, who happened to join us for the panel.
Fan Q&A: Who is the best kisser?

Jason David Frank
Rounding out Day 1 was original Power Ranger/Lord Drakkon himself, Jason David Frank. We chatted about the importance of having self discipline to be there for his fans, life in spandex, all of his current projects (Shattered Grid and Street Fighter Showdown) and how Tommy never dies (he just multiplies).
.@jdfffn has vlogs on Youtube so check them out! He's got a cartoon project on @cartoonnetwork, a @StreetFighter project, #ShatteredGrid, and a @PowerRangers graphic novel and a short film. And a ton more stuff! So keep an eye out on all the entertainment medias!#FXV18 #MMPR
