and those of Holland Manners and most of his Special Projects division in the wine cellar.
That gets my vote for Most Viciously Enjoyable Death(s).
Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Given that Angel 5 wasn't specifically intended to be the last season, I never felt that Fred was completely out of the picture. Certainly Illyria kept enough of her memories to imitate her that it was never seemed done deal. So I was never completely convinced that Fred was dead.

Worst death was Spike's, because it didn't stick.
Unlike Angel's after Buffy sent him to hell?

Angel didn't die, he went directly to Hell without passing Go. Buffy, Darla, and Spike are the only ones who've gone backsies on actually dying (unless you count all vampires).

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Angel didn't die,
"I kissed him, and I killed him."
That's as much as dead as the others got.

Darla staking herself to save her baby is a contender for best death, except I never could quite believe it. I mean, it's DARLA. I can only believe it if I believe she got magically brainwashed by her magical impossible baby.

"I kissed him, and I killed him."
That's definitely one of the best murders.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Her calling him dead doesn't make him dead. Are you saying that stabbing a vampire kills them, or that sending to another dimension does, or that it's the combination?

Going to Hell equals "dead" for whatever that means in the Jossiverse. He was expired on this plane, he was an ex-Angel, he was bleedin' demised.

Was Buffy dead in "Anne"?
