![]() ![]() ![]() * * * I find it amusing that I of all people am starting this thread, since I always used to make fun of fans of BtVS. What can I say? I have a pathologically addictive personality. ![]() I was looking forward to the series finale. [i ![]() ![]() "Chosen" reminds me of the DS9 finale "What You Leave Behind"... a finale with great plot, great character moments, great acting, that I absolutely hated. I can't stand that Spike sacrificed himself. I can't stand that Anya died just to save that annoying little hick Andrew. I can't stand that nobody seemed to care that this happened. It just plain stinks. I need to go read some Jane Austen... at least there, the good guys get rewarded and the bad guys get their comeuppance. Aside from my distaste of unhappy endings, my only two nitpicks for the final few episodes were that Angel's cameo felt way too forced ("Hey look, everybody! It's Angel! Aren't you happy to see Angel? Angel!") and the writers concealing Buffy's plan with regards to the potentials felt too forced. ("Wow, Buffy, that was a great plan you just explained to us in full during that commercial break.") I also liked that the finale kept the usual BtVS wit going. Three of my favorites were Giles, Xander, Amanda and Andrew playing Dungeons & Dragons (Giles: "I used to be a highly respected Watcher. Now I'm a wounded dwarf with the mystical power of a doiley."), Spike's "Angel" punching bag (particularly the spikey hair), and the banter about Anya and Andrew fighting together. [b ![]() ![]() [b ![]() ![]() [b ![]() ![]() [b ![]() ![]() I'd love that exchange if it weren't for the unnecessarily gruesome end of Anya. :crying: And a final thought: I've been informed by Zeke that James Marsters is supposed to be on Angel next season. That will sure be an interesting trick. Not only that, but Spike back from the dead-again and not tracking down Buffy? To that, I say pfffffffft.[/color ![]()
