Dolly Parton will forever be an icon. The singer, songwriter, and country icon sadly died at age 80 on August 25, and the world stopped to reflect on her epic career that included smash hits like “Jolene,” “9 to 5,” and “I Will Always Love You.” A few years ago, we ran across a tweet that revealed something many fans didn’t know: Dolly Parton was a producer for Buffy the Vampire Slayer!
Though it wasn’t technically a secret, fans online were excited when it came to light that Parton’s Sandollar Productions was behind the massively popular 1990s supernatural series. Sandollar was established by the beloved singer and philanthropist along with her friend Sandy Gallin. The company is credited at the end of each episode, though most viewers didn’t know that Parton was part of the production team as she was uncredited (whereas Sandy Gallin’s name was used).
We were already huge fans of Buffy, but the fact that Dolly Parton played a part makes it even cooler. It all began when Sandollar Productions helped make a little movie about a vampire slayer dealing with high school that wasn’t the hit the studio hoped. A pivot was made to a TV show and the rest, as they say, is history.
If you’re more of an Angel fan, then you might recognize Sandollar Productions from that spinoff. It’s always nice to learn something new about what you love, but this really shouldn’t have surprised us as Parton was a truly wondrous woman who put her earnings into not only making incredible art but also into charity. One of her projects, the Imagination Library, promotes literacy by giving 100s of millions of books to children around the world.
Now feels like a good time to rewatch all of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and pay homage to the beautiful women both on and off the screen who made the smash-hit show possible.
