Secondly, from a completely tactical perspective, facing off against the First Evil, Tara is more useful than Joyce. Tara not only can help them magically, but she could also help Willow with her confidence, which was still pretty shot magic-wise until the very end of the season.
Well, and then Kennedy could have turned to the dark side, and we could have watched Buffy kill her, or maybe Willow could have just made her mute.

Or Faith could have stabbed her to death before making some quip about the difference between an actual tough rebel slayer and an really annoying brat.
Well, didn't Joss say we ended up with Kennedy because Tara wasn't coming back?
I think the character could have worked with another actress. Wouldn't have minded watching the character we ended up with die painfully, though.

Jesus, that photo is scary.
Did we pass, and do we get a gold star if we did?
