"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Yes. She also lived like the selfish, vengeful bitch she was for a thousand years. Die Anya! Die. Die again!

Tsk, look what happens when the hate festers in your heart? Crazy talk.

What is even happening?

Well Kennedy wasn't 15, so it wasn't an issue. But Amanda was. It would have been gross. It's not the 7 years, or whatever size the gap. It's which years are at either end of the gap. 18 and 25 doesn't bother me. 15 and 22 does.

Hee! I actually enjoyed Anya when they weren't having her be a one-note joke. I may have cried when she died. I didn't feel like she was robbed of a full life, the way I did about Tara, though. I also thought the show built a funny morality around her, that didn't fit with her character.

Spike was written to be bad for Buffy, and I get that, accept it, agree with it. But somehow, it was fine for Xander to be with someone who was so unrepentant, for so long. Anya didn't even start to become one of the good guys until she was devengified in season 7's Selfless. Until then, in my book, Anya was a dry drunk, in much the same way Chipped!Spike was, but she was generally written as a white hat, a clueless-not-getting-it-all white hat, but a white-hat, still.

Up with the sun

SMG looks REALLY skinny in the last pic. I know it's a matter of contrast, but ... wow.

She likes the quiet.

Thank the lord for that.

Seriously, the meta issues would have made my rage on something wicked huge.

She always lost weight during the course of the season. She's small to begin with and that schedule always wore her down and she's usually drastically skinnier in the season finale than she was in the opener.

Xander as avatar of Joss, getting the girl, in the end.

Thus reducing seven years of story telling to masturbatory fantasy.

In my head.

And there's no way of fixing that.

Brave, the not going there thing.

So glad they didn't.
