I'll defend Season 6. But I'll acknowledge that Jessica felt very differently, and I'll agree (both as to my opinion and the majority opinion of posters at the time) as to Season 7.
Zoe: Next time we smuggle stock, let's make it something smaller. Wash: Yeah, we should start dealing in those black-market beagles.

Really, my ONLY point was that negative feelings about a show/movie/book do not necessarily imply an inability to contribute to a discussion of said work in an intelligent and worthwhile fashion.
BtVS S6/7 was merely a handy example of an existing scenario where we, as a group, managed to intelligently discuss things that several people involved in said discussion did not like.
There are plenty of examples I could pull from Literary and Movies too (and probably Music, except I'm not in that thread) -- television is a weird exception because if you don't like a show, you'll probably stop watching it (and, subsequently, won't have an opinion on new eps). Unlike a book or movie, where once you've read/watched, you've got an opinion on the finished work whether you liked it or not.

Or music, where you occasionally get earwormed with the offense. Yes, I'm looking at you Scott Stapp.
