Well, I did it.
I saved the world.
Just kidding, that was Buffy.
I did, however, finish myBuffybinge which feels like it merits the same amount of praise?
Dare I say that season 7 finally figured outBuffy’s series-long struggle with big bads?
The start of the season was a struggle.
I’ve never struggled so much to simply follow the season’s story.
But how that connected to him going insane was … weird.
Andrew was my favorite part of season 7, hands down.
Andrew aside, the middle of the season does get a little too invested in the powerful speech.
Neither Buffy nor Xander is Coach Taylor, but boy did they try … repeatedly.
And that brings us to the finale, which I thought was a solid conclusion to this series.
I’ll start with the Buffy/Spike of it all.
It didn’t discredit their relationship that they weren’t madly in love or making out.
It made it sweeter!
And yes, I did scream when Angel returned.
And then they had their cookie chat, which was hilarious, and also perfect.
After all, he ain’t getting any older.
And, most of all, the final shot of the series.
Her life is now changed … for the better.
The one downside of that finale was definitely Anya’s barely-there death.
Thank god I didn’t look away for that split second!
For example, a montage of Anya, then Xander, then Andrew or Faith dying?
That would’ve worked in a very different, very devastating way.
All in all, the final season was better than I expected, once it got going.
And I was pleased with that finale.
Worst outfit choice:Buffy showing up to the fight of her life in a blazer and heels.
Favorite episode:That finale.
