Joss may have been trying to tell us something with all the phallic snake business in Buffy. Subtle HoYay! as compared to that of Angel.

Grad Day gets docked for use of giant snake which is always a bad idea in the Jossiverse
I'm willing to give him a pass (mostly) on the giant snake because I just loved loved loved the Mayor/Harry Groener. "The Gift" on the other hand, had a crappy build up and a crappy resolution ("It's all Summers' blood" my ass) & therefore gets cut no slack. Loved the gravestone, but that lost most of its zing since we knew the show was moving to UPN & the chances of it doing so w/o the lead character were roughly... oh, ZERO.

Well, y'know, eponymous main character a girl, so appearance of phallic symbols not necessarily indicative of HoYay!.
Now Angel repeatedly getting penetrated by wood, I got no argument against.

Heh. Riley penetrated Spike with plastic. Which, going with this metaphor, makes Riley the lesbian he always claimed he was.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
The only finales I watched in real time were Restless, Chosen, The Gift and Grave, and I would rate them in that order.
Also, I swear to DOG! that I completely and totally beleived that Buffy was dead dead and that they would continue the show without her. It took me at least a day to realize that that wasn't true. I also thought perhaps SMG would leave the show and Buffy would end up in someone else's body.
