The problem with season 4 is that it doesn't really work all that good as a whole. Many of the parts are great, but they don't necessarily make any real sense together.

Select to view spoiler:


For instance, I liked the whole "The Beast"/Rain of fire/Apocalypse thing, which led to the return of Angelus and subsequently Faith. I also liked the Jasmine arc. However, those two made little or no sense together, and it almost seemed like the writers were just making it up as they went along. If you consider the fact that Cordy was under the control of Jasmine since she came back, or at least since the memory spell in "Spin the Bottle", many of her actions and reactions to things that happen during the season seems very strange



With that said, it's still very enjoyable though, just not quite as good as some of the other seasons.

I thought that was somewhat whiny. Agree on some of the points, but some others were kinda ridiculous. I especially don't agree on the comments about S6 of Buffy and the whole Lilah thing that the reviewer for some reason goes on about for half a page.
