The next day Buffy is at Sunnydale high at the school corridors, Dawn and her 2 friends walk, she smiles, and then there'll be flashbacks of her starting Sunnydale high, meeting with Xander and Willow, and the rest of what's happened since then. Before the end credits, we see her smiling. The End.




Nice try but it ain't gonna happen. And I'm glad. Here's why:
Buffy has to die. If she somehow got out of it, it wouldn't be fair to the mythology. And I want her to go out in a HUGE gut-wrenching blaze of glory. Here's betting that she does.
Remember what Joss said after Tara died? Something like, "...what happened to Tara will happen to all of them, sooner or later. Tara just got hers sooner..."
BTVS and Joss have broken my heart over and over, and I want him to do it one last time, good and hard.
I also hope they finally show the Big Wiccans in England, with some fantastic casting. I don't give a rip about Dawn, and I hope Xander finally gets what he deserves for what he did to Anya.
Hopefully, Spike will go on in Angel, but he's the only character I hope does.
I like the idea that Dawn's part of Buffy, but if she becomes slayer I will really lose respect!

I've been thinking about this as Season 7 has unfolded and I came up with an idea -- a fairly big one, at that. But I had one huge problem with this theory and that was the continuing existance of the Angel series.

And then I read that the Angel series contract expires after this season so, if that's the case my idea COULD work, if it's not renewed.

Let me outline this for you.

Our apparent Big Bad (on Buffy) this season is The First, the source of all evil in the world. We have an Apocalypse on Angel. There are more than a few hints that these storylines might be related.

The head of the WB has said that if SMG is not coming back, he would OK a crossover with his UPN rival, which also helps this story.We already know Faith is gonna be on 3 Angels and 5 Buffys.

So, OK, Buffy & the Scoobs, assisted by the SITs and Faith go up against The First -- AND WIN!!!

When they win, any vampire or demon not currently possessing a soul disappears, vanishes, *POOF* -- eliminating the need for slayers. Additionally, any of these non-humans owning a soul when this happens become human.

Buffy and Angel ride off into the sunset and live a long and happy life.

Or Joss just kills 'em all off in a worldwide scenario of death and devastation and turns the earth into in The Road Warrior, which is why we have to leave and create the world of Firefly.

Hey, it could happen!

I think that Buffy should end by:

Buffy and Faith fight together to try and stop the first evil, but since he can't take comporeal form they ask willow to do some spells. After a big fight. The Seal of Danzarth??? is destroyed. Bringing the hellmouth to a close. 'This would not end the demons because of the hellmouth just being a mystical conversions place where weird things happen around. Buffy should be physically attacked by the first who found a way to take form of a human and start to kill Buffy, and in an attempt Spike should sacrifice his immortality to save buffy. (What if the Trials that spike had to endure at the end of season 6 aren't over and that is why the First is using him as his bitch)
After a blood hurling battle faith dies, like buffy but is soon revived. And when the slayer (faith) is pronounced dead the new slayer is Kennedy. Buffy and Dawn shouldn't move away but stay and They can live happily ever after...

My thoughts only.....

i agree. buffy shouldn't die, she's died 3 times already!! if she dies again, they should beable to just bring her back again. thing is, she's leaving after this, so how's she going to go. they probably will end up kiling her off. also, the big bad, i don't think they will defeat it. if it is "the source of all evil" what's going to happen with angel? and if they make a spin-off with faith? no evil to fight, i don't think so. it would be very cool if at the end, buffy and angel end up fighting the same thing.
if dawn is the new slayer, im not going to watch.

ehh, i so will be watching, but dawn!~!-NOOO

Giles: Dear god, Buffy, there's only so much I can take. We're going to have to change the system. A fourteen-year-old's too old to be babysat, and it's not fair on her.
Buffy: What'd she make you do?
Giles: Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance ... then we ate cookie dough and talked about boys.

My theory:-

Anya will be killed by the big bad and Spike will sacrifice himself to save Buffy, though he maybe resurrected at a later date.

Faith will not fight along side Buffy in the final battle; it will be Buffy fighting alone. Faith may rescue Buffy at some stage to create a bond between the two slayers.

In the spin off series Faith will become a roving slayer sent out on special slayer missions with Sander tagging along as Faith's right hand man/potential love interest. Sander will finally get some special powers.

Buffy will have temporary retirement in Sunnydale with Dawn and Willow after the Hellmouth is closed. Faith and Zander may drop in to Sunnydale and L.A. from time to time. Dawn, Willow and/or Spike may become regulars on the Faith show as well.

I think you're on the right track Selnyc. That's pretty much been my theory for several months now too. It neatly ties everything up so that he'll never have to revive the show no matter how much fans beg. (Look at the final episode of Forever Knight if you want to see what a writer does when he's pissed off at fans who won't let him stop.)

As for couplings, blah, whatever. No matter who ends out with whom some will be disappointed.

My fingers are crossed for this ending:

Buffy gets slayed by a vampire.

The End.

Crappy end to a crappy show. GO POST ON A BUFFY SITE! Move along ppl, nothing to see here, shows over!

Yikes! Harsh words from Zero! This thread was posted in the Buffy section of the forum you know! And most of us here are die-hard Whedonites as well as Browncoats!
Anyways, I think Buffy should end with Buffy succeeding in closing the hell mouth her and spike (or angel!) running off to be together. Setting the stage for the rumored Faith series, co staring Andrew as the comic relief, Wood as the new watcher, Willow as the Hot Witch, and Kennedy as the Hot Witch’s girlfriend/Slayer Sidekick.


Keep Flying!

I never really watched Buffy so much until Firefly pointed me in the right direction. But now I've come to really appreciate it, and I am sorry the end has come. I'm glad there are DVD's available.

I liked the recent episode where she turned down the extra powers offered by the Dances With Wolves guys in the portal.






Has YOUR mom seen Firefly, lately?

I want a nice, happy ending...

However - There have been pointers already about how it will go in the final episodes and anyone who has read the 'Fray' comic series knows exactly what is going to happen... I guess there is some wiggle room for what happens after the final episode, but really and truely, it's already a done deal.

Select to view spoiler:



According to Fray and to the few minor snippets in the episodes so far, Buffy is the last Slayer for 400 years. After she's done, no more will be called. There will be more potentials but no need for Slayers because all the demons will be banished. Unfortunately, she gets sucked into hell by the closing of the hellmouth.




Twelve spheres of unendurable brightness spalled the velvety blackness of space.
The silence on Lester Tourville's flag bridge was absolute
And then the spell was broken as Shannon Foraker looked up from her console from where she had just sent a seemingly innocent command to the main computers of State Security's finest Superdreadnoughts.
"Oops." She said.
