When the episodes became all about the big finales they just all blended together in my mind.
3. 2 hour season finale.
I agree with this. More variety in storylines. That's what made the past seasons work better is varying stories that shook things up most of the season, plus lots of crossovers didn't hurt too.

thank you- could not remember her name...
why couldnt she die instead of Anya, Amanda and all the other potentials...I mean[qoute] ding dong the witch is deadany tips to get past this problem greatly appreciated
but hopeful!
one big shiny family
I totally agree. I just wanted to beat Rona with a bunch of those Slayer weapons everytime she opened her mouth. She is the main reason that they all turned on Buffy. Otherwise they could have all talked it out calmly, but she wouldn't let it go because she didn't want to be there in the first place! I hate that character!
Kennedy is my 2nd least favorite. And to think I used to hate Dawn.lol Dawn was wonderful compared to those two.
Also to add to my last post... I also think that Willow and Xander needed more screen time. Especially Xander after Anya dies, it was like oops she's dead ....awwww no, show's over folks!!!

1) Less Spike.
I love the peroxide head as much as anyone but I think this season shouldve been focused more upon Buffy's task wit the potentials.
2)2 hour finale
Chosen seemed a bit rushed and I think that there should have been a lot more Buffy/Willow/Xander time .
3)More fleshed out potentials
Speaks for itself.

I'd much rather have a 3 things you'd change about Angel Season 5, but okay.
1. Less focusentral on the big plotline. I always loved those stand-alones that still had ultimate plotline stuff oging on in the background (For example, Season 2, even as Angel, Spike and Drusilla are planning their big plane, they're still fighting Werewolves, Der Kinderstod and Fish-People). They could have done that.
2. Cameos by Oz and Drusilla. I don't mean The First DISGUISED as Drusilla like she did (THE FIRST IS TOTALLY FEMALE), or Drusilla in a flashback. Do you realize we never saw her in real time again after Season 5? And Oz never appeared again after Season 4. I am, in fact, working on a fanfic about Oz, who seems to have settled down in Seattle.
3. BRING TARA THE HELL BACK! Come on! They bring everybody back! Why not Tara? Of course, in my Oz Fanfic, Tara does come back. As a ghost, yeah, but she'll still be back. Once I finish, anyways.

Three things...hmmm...
1) Make Chosen a two-parter directed by Joss, instead of only one ep.
2) Have some more scenes for Xander.
3) ummmm....nuthin' more, I guess, I was pretty happy with the rest.

I agree with the making of SMG unfold her arms a bit more, and maybe perhaps saying less "mmm kays".
And apart from the obvious of seeing more of the core characters, maybe more andrew too????

1.) Anya and Andrew: Their potential as the perfect duo came way too late. The wheelcahir fight; inspired. The series needed at least 20 more eps like Selfless and Storyteller.
2.) Potentials = Bad. 'Nuff Said
3.) Buffy had to die. She had to, and not just for all the "everybody-sucks-but-me" speechifying. She should have finally been given peace. And it's completely un-Joss to not let her die. Back to heaven and all that.

Well, seeing as how I'm a hopeless romantic....
1) Bring Tara back. Kill Kennedy. Happy Willow.
2) Don't kill Anya - that was so sad - and if you have to, could you not make more of a deal over it? It was a pathetic attempt at dying if you ask me.
3) (Possibly at the end of whenever Angel SHOULD have finished) Buffy and Angel back together. I know it could never happen - but it would have been nice. And as I said before - I'm a romantic.
Realistically though - I would have brought Tara back (or preferably - not have killed her at all) - she was the only one for Willow (die Kennedy - DIE) and Willow was a better character with her around (although her geeky days were also fun).
The potential slayers thing didn't work imho; the acting was poor - and it was like having many (even more annoying) Dawns.
I would also have liked more character development - particularly with Giles, Xander and Willow - they were the ORIGINAL scoobies, but it seems like they were just left to stagnate as characters over s7. Anya was also a tad too whiny (which on top of the potentials REALLY annoyed me) - she would have been better if Xander and Anya had married - even if there had been constant arguments or whatever.
Basically - s7 wasn't my favourite - too many slayers- -not enough fun.
Would just like to add - I liked s4 - though s2 and s5 are my faves.
Does it really matter as long as you're having fun?
