The Mayor's plan made a lot of sense: attaining apotheosis into an ageless colossal demon that could push around anyone he wanted. He'd just been at it so long he failed to take into account the ready availability of modern explosives.
Well, except, didn't he want to eat the world? Which he seemed to enjoy. Kill everyone and there's no more miniature golf or icies. Which he may be beyond at that point, but still. But how sanitary is devouring creatures whole when you're not immortal anymore? Since he seemed to know his own weakness once ascended. Or was it only when ascending? It's been a while.
And, DAMN, I really need a rewatch!
I don't recall anything about eating the world in his plans. Presumable he would have gone around eating lots of individual people and generally doing whatever giant serpent demons enjoy doing.
Are you mixing his plan up with what Acathla was supposed to do once Angel woke him up?
I didn't get much idea of what the mayor planned post-ascension either, but I noticed on rewatch that in his video message to Faith he seemed to envisage himself still being mayor of Sunnydale.
I always assumed that Adam was another military Captain America, only made of and for killing demons...and other military applications.
From Mark Watches:
You know what comforted me? Darla. Because I really like her and I really like Julie Benz and I know it’s probably asking too much, but I’d be down to see more of her. I shouldn’t say that, should I? Well, she was already killed off, so it can’t get worse, can it??? WHY AM I ASKING THESE QUESTIONS HAVE I LEARNED NOTHING.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
Can't type. Still laughing. (Also, your Christian Hendricks thing was awesome. I didn't even know she was in that episode!)
The bit about Darla made laugh a lot too.
Darla holds the record for experiencing the most deaths in the Buffyverse, doesn't she?
I can't wait until he gets to the last minute of To Shanshu in LA.

Thanks! I'm kinda proud of it, actually. It is one of my better posts.

So her original one as a human, then the one on Buffy, then the one on Angel? Guess she's got Buffy beat.

His keyboard will break from the CAPSLOCK.
