I do miss Saskia. She brought some genuine teenage vim and pluck to the role.

I agree, I guessed her age at between 18 and 20, making her destruction even more poignant. For the same reason, my two favorite White Angels are WA1 and WA2. The actresses just looked so young and innocent!

One of the main problems I have with the 'Teen Bat' character (not the actresses themselves) is that, since Saskia left the role, the actresses who have played it have most definitely not been nor even looked like teens. I guess though that is a common problem and fault with the US Media, casting actresses in their 20's and even their 30's to play teens. The Asians (especially the Japanese) are able tog et away with it fine, western actresses less so.

It's Memorial Day here in the US today, so an appropriate time to observe that they do the same with actors in war movies, often casting 30 - 40-year-old plus actors as soldiers who would've been closer to 18 - 20 during the war. Tom Hanks was 42 when cast for Saving Private Ryan, while the average age of a Capt. at that point in the war was probably closer to 23. Too many never got any older. One of my greatest honors while I was stationed in the UK was to participate in the Memorial Day ceremony at Cambridge American Military Cemetery.

I will say that Sarah Michelle Gellar made a credible high school student despite being 20 when the series began... of course it took her seven seasons to get out of High School, so...
