That was just too, too sad. But it's the only way I can imagine the series ending. "If nothing you do matters, than all that matters is what you do." Sob.

Um.
Anyone else flashing on Blackadder?
Still too allergic from Wesleys death to compose my thoughts, but this was a fitting way for heroes to go out.

Thrive to spite them
I wasn't going to watch tonight. I was going to save it. I started in about 9:15.
OH MY GOD.
Before I watched this I would have said I wanted Spike to die. But now Wes dying is better. The original MOG are all dead.
I liked the touches of contiunity.
HATED the Thank you from the WB at the ending.
Loved the way it ended.

Is from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.The line was also used in one of the Pylea episodes, so it's a callback to the show, too.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Yup, and wrod. Still doesn't change the fact the simpleton in me wants closure. Everyone should be happy and healthy. But I'll deal with the angst. It's what I've been doing for the last 5 years.

It's a remora, dimwit.
I do feel a bit self-congratulatory that Angel would go for the martyr's death - it'd be the only thing that truly fitted with his morality and history. And of course the humans are the first to die.
Part of me wondered if the idea of Connor being Angel's shanshu was going to come up, that he actually couldn't be killed until Angel signed away the rights to shanshu - that he no longer owned the human life that was Connor's.

Brought no kleenex. Had to use my shirt sleeve when Wes died. How fitting for Illyria to ask Wes if he wanted her to lie to him. I flashed back to the Buffy episode and Giles telling Buffy that you can always tell the good guys by the white hats, the bad guys wear black and nobody ever dies. The whole package was just too much. Angel took that and subverted it even more than Buffy ever did. I guess they're all blue.
