I had a whole show figured out that ended with the return of Tara.

I really can't stand the thought of how much better this would have made Willow's arc in S7 for me. If I think about it too much - I get really really sad.

editted to say really one more time 'cause what the hell.

If skills sold, truth be told, I'd probably be lyrically, Talib Kweli. Truthfully I wanna rhyme like Common Sense But I did five mill' - I ain't been rhymin like Common since (Jay-Z)

He's a weirdo.

Yeah. This version doesn't really make sense in light of the CWDP shooting script.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I've heard that "alternate S7 with Returned Tara" thing before, and I don't believe a word of it.

I'm not sure I believe it, but still I find it touching.

I don't know what Jess' answer will be, but for me, they went through a LOT of trouble at the end of S6 to make it known that Tara was dead, dead, dead, dead as fucking stone and that there was Jack and Shit to be done about it.

I would have been very upset to have that nullified, no matter how happy the return of Tara would have made me.

Mostly because it sounds a lot like some of the bullshit he and Marti and SG were making up on the Wild at Heart commentary.

And because I can't believe that they'd cap off Buffy's year of post-mortem depression by rewarding the woman who put her there with the return of her true love from the dead. The show's always been about forgiveness, but it's generally people forgiving each other, not the universe handing out candy and flowers.

[And What Sean Said, too.]

It's not so much the return of Tara that would have made me happy, but the lack of Kennedy. Or the full-on humiliating slap down of Kennedy that would have accompanied the return of a triumphant Tara. (OK - unlikely, but a girl can dream.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

If Tara had come back as a zombie, and eaten Kennedy's brains, I would have cheered.

Tara returned to life fully human and normal and happy and 4EVAH!!!! with Willow?

They wouldn't have needed Spike's Big Gay Amulet at all -- Sunnydale would have spontaneously collapsed from the complete undermining of what Tara's death meant in the first place.
