It was just one of those "Hi, I'm Julie Benz - catch all-new episodes of yadda yadda yadda" things, but it's nice that they chose her to make the pitch.
If you have the time and/or inclination, I highly recommend renting Season 1 on NetFlix of some other way. It was really a terrific show - well written, well acted and genuinely thrilling with a lovely thread of dark humour throughout. And I think this was probably the role of a lifetime for Julie Benz - and she takes full advantage. She's completely NOT Darla on the show.
