I'm betting Mr. Gordo and the family pictures were on the bus. If I ever have to make plans to flee a Hellmouth, Clovis is probably the first thing I'd grab (knowing that The Husband would be able to get himself on the bus).

OZ - "Oh."

Yes, this.

I kinda felt bad about the cemetery and that Dawn and Buffy wouldn't have anywhere to visit Joyce. Same for Tara if she was buried there.

Funny, I thought the same thing about Joyce. Totally forgot about Tara's grave... and Jenny Calender's for that matter.

"Oh well. Earth saved. Mom's grave sucked into Hellmouth. I guess we're a little ahead... Let's go shopping!"

{{tina}} I am so sorry that you had to go through this. I really don't understand why all civic and business activites didn't halt while the episode was playing in each time zone. Insensitive jerks!

I'd grab the computer. Don't have many pictures.

Ultimately I felt short changed on Willow, Xander and Giles.

I understand that, but still many classic scenes with them I wouldn't have missed for the world (Willow and Giles in England; Xander with Dawn, Willow as Warren, Willow and Xander arguing with Buffy in Selfless, Giles squeaky shoe story, everything in Chosen, etc. etc.). The season was not perfect-but I'm very glad to have had it. And I'll miss all the adventures we won't see.

5) I'd have paid good money to have had just one last scene before the Grr Argh!:A man carrying a backpack stands at the lip of the Sunnydale Crater. He has obviously walked a long way to get here and now facing the desolation he is practically dumbfounded. His face shows a little confusion and possibly regret. His eyebrow raises - OZ - "Oh."

This IS perfect. And now I'll just assume this is what happened after the closing credits.

I must be the only one. I just can't bring myself to be sad that Anya died.

Steph, you're not the only one. Not entirely anyway.

I mean, I'm sorry she's dead. And I'm angry at the way she died. The Anya we end Season 6 with should have had a really gloriously painfully angsty death, only slightly less resonant than death of one of the Core Scoobies would have been. She would have been more mourned by the characters.

The Anya we had for the majority of this season (excluding "Selfless") was little more than bit player (and one I really disliked), and I felt her death was only slightly more emphasized than an average citizen of Sunnydale. I wanted more for her. My issue.

This IS perfect. And now I'll just assume this is what happened after the closing credits.

Thanks. High praise. Hmm, this give me an idea...

"Dear Joss, please find enclosed an idea for something really cool to add to the Season 7 DVD...

My son, grumpily heading off to bed:

"Why did Spike have to die instead of Angel?"

BWAH! Pure BOMM (that is Beer instead of Coffee)

For all his big throwing around of the C-word, Angel is so not the type to actually DIE to save the world.

Well he's done it as many times as Spike. Maybe not voluntarily, but...

I adore Pete's take, but I seriously think Oz would have given us another pateneted "Huh." not "Oh." You all may debate that as you will.

Whoa! I was just going to post that.

I think we need to collect all the fanwanks in one place when we create the ultimate Buffista BtVS guide. Plus Anya-recaps for all of them.

and I'm already tired of telling my "I got arrested" story and having to explain why it matters what I was watching. And I am happy I can tell it here - where I don't have to explain.

Tina, that's AWFUL. You had to EXPLAIN?

Barbarians!
