   Heh! Notice I said "possibly to the death." I would NOT have wanted to   
   see Will leave the series. I was recalling S7 when Buff said she had to   
   kill Anya because she had reverted back to her evil self. And during the   
   fight Anya asked Buff if she had any friends that she didn't try to kill!   
      
   But Anya wanted Buff to kill her, that's why she kept goading her and   
   yelling at Xan to keep out of it.   
      
   It would have been interesting to see Will become an anti-villain for   
   several more eps and Buff wondering if she would have to kill her.   
      
   Yes, the season six ending was very good. Unfortunately we had to sit   
   thru three months of crap to get to it.

   Logic in the Buffyverse?!? Spike sacrificed himself and they still   
   brought him back.   
   Darla was killed off and they brought her back as a human and then had   
   her revert   
   to vampire. I was glad to see both of them return, but their returns   
   weren't logical.   
      
   Wasn't there some eps where they fought the "ultimate evil" who was the   
   source   
   of all things that were bad? I was thinking (maybe) make Drac the source   
   of the   
   vamp's powers. And with him gone then their power would vanish. Or maybe   
   there   
   would be no new vamps made.   
      
   At the very least I has hoping to see Drac for more than one ep. He   
   would've been a   
   great villain! Anyway I'm just throwing some random "what if" thoughts   
   out... :-D

   Me too, they had good endings...   
      
   Yes, some things could have gone better. Like the reveal that Buff's   
   friends pulled her   
   out of heaven. That should have been kept a secret from the viewers   
   until the 'OMWF'   
   episode. But overall I have no major complaints about the two shows.   
   They will go   
   down in tv history as classics.
