Did Buffy 'jump the shark' with Dawn's intro?

She wound me up I'll admit but only in Season 5. Beyond that she was alright. In season 7 I even liked her... a little bit.
I agree with previous poster (*insert name here* 'cause I'm too lazy to check), Dawn wasn't added as a band aid so that in itself made her bearable.
Don't be put of Season 6+7. As numerous others have commented, Once More with Feeling is fabulous and one of my personal favorites appears in Season 7. (Selfless- lots of Anya's past with plenty of Angst and Witty writing).
Dark Angel, Firefly, Buffy, Angel, Enterprise, Farscape... anything else you'd like to cancel?

You're very right, she was sooooo annoying! And it took forever for them to figure out that she wasn't buffy's sister (dramatic irony should only really be used for comedy).
Dawn brings out a real inconssistancy in Buffy too. Throught the show Buffy was VERY quick to turn on her friends ( Angel, and Williow are the big ones) but she dies to save Dawn someone that was lying to her all season and she only knew for like a month or so.
and after Glory was killed she just had no purpose. She goes no to hog Buffy's best arc. She should have never been on the show.

I loved the character or Dawn, she was one of my favorite characters. I'm not sure why people have such a problem with the way she entered into the show. I mean we're talking about a universe in which demons walk the streets and there's a portal to hell in the basement of a high school. Is it that hard to believe that this universe also spawns a mystical key made flesh?
My one complaint is the writing for dawn, it was very inconsistent, sometimes she acted like an 8 year old, sometimes she acted like a 20 year old, but yea, I loved Dawn and have no complaints with her being added as a character.
