What about Gunn's sister? That was surprising.
You're right -- War Zone, May 9th, sweeps.
Doyle and Cordy were the ones that really hurt me
I cried for Doyle, it was so unexpected. I didn't mind Fred, and the death was so overwrought. I disliked Cordy so much by that point that I honestly don't quite remember how she died.
I was surprised at how much I felt Fred's death, since the character wasn't doing much for me anymore. I think in a lot of ways I was hurting for Wesley more than Fred.
The last Cordy ep was a fun reminder, but I so loathed the character by that point that it didn't really have any emotional resonance.
I was just the opposite—she'd been dead to me at least since "Tomorrow," but Fury brought the real deal back just in time to make her death hurt. Thank God.
What Matt said. I was grateful to be sorry, rather than relieved, that Cordelia died. I was grateful to be able to miss her.
I was glad that she got a sendoff fitting her earlier incarnation better than her later, but I had used up all my sad. I was happy they did her justice, and that she was gone.
What Matt said. Plus, I was so happy that she got a good send-off.
