All 7 seasons of Buffy were good -- they were just all different. S6 was dark and depressing because it was SUPPOSED to be that way. Buffy's life sucked. BtVS was by far the most consistently interesting TV show ever. The fact that we're still talking about it 5 years after it was cancelled proves that!

I know most people hated the episodes "Gone" and "Double Meat Palace" but I found the episodes to be hilarious. To This day I can watch thos episodes and continue to LOL at moments. Especially DOuble Meat Palace, if you ever worked fast food you find humor in the whole situation.

Gone was hilarious because of everything going on in the episode, the social worker showing up and finding the "magic wheat" and believing it was pot. And then Buffy making the...

I'm horrible, I came to Buffy and watched seasons 1-3 on TV, and then fell out w/ watching TV in general for a couple of years. Later, I picked up the DVD's, and rewatched seasons 1-5. I let season 5 be the end for me, as I heard mostly complaints about season 6 and season 7. I have seen a few episodes from seasons 6 and 7, but to me, Buffy ended when Buffy died.

I too heard the same thing about Anya being killed off for the same reasons as PJ said. I would really love for a...

I've read that Emma Caulfield wanted off for no chance of spinoffs, and then I've read that Joss told her he'd never kill off her character.

As for why Anya, it pretty...

I'm not feelign the current arc in the cmic. Surprising since it's Jane writing it. Maybe the presence of Oz is killing it a bit for me. I'm glad though that (issue 30)

Reilly was a spy for Buffy and not evil

Anya claimed she wanted to leave the show so she insisted her character be killed.

I still find it funny that the villain/Big Bad in Season 8 is "Twilight". Take that Stephanie Meyer.

You should continue to read on. The current arc(Retreat) is pretty darn good.

I just started with the first volume (aka the first 5 comics). I finished it in like 30 minutes. Lol.

Is anyone reading the Season 8 comic book series?

Season 7 of Buffy started out great, though after the episode Showtime, where Buffy slays the Turok Hahn (Uber Vamp) things went downhill quickly. Once in awhile a good episode turned out but things didn't start picking back up until the last five episodes. Basically everything in between Showtime and Dead Girls felt like a filler.

S1 is kind of slow...mostly just mystery of the weeks. S2 builds and S3 with the Connor/Wes drama is amazing. S4 is the most epic season imo and is one of the best Buffy/Angel seasons ever. S5 is good, better than 5 but not as strong as the 3 seasons before.

And yes, S7 is probably the worst Buffy/Angel season EVER. Everyone is so out of character, the episodes are boring as heck (there was like five where they didn't even leave the house), it was cheap looking, Spike was...

I liked Angel a lot more once I saw it on DVD. The five seasons are kind of a U or V shape -- starts out good, gets kinda boring (esp S3), but recovers and gets better. S5 was epic. I thought the WWII episode was fascinating, and the epi where Spike and Angel look for Buffy (and find Andrew) was classic.

The last season is excellent but it's almost a different show from the first seasons, completely different cast, different premise, everything.

The last season has the awesome puppet Angel episode and the first season has that great episode with Pregnant Cordilia.

Angel is very uneven. The first seasons and the last season are very good. The middle ones aren't as good.

Coincidentally, the DVDs I bought are of the first and last season only.

Pencake has tried to get me to watch Angel, but I find it SO boring.

Its definitely one of those "love it or hate it" shows.
