Season 5 is actually my fav season. We get a first look in at Willow's huge power when she attacks Glory over Tara's madness which I thought was one of the show's best moments (Tough Love is def one of my best episodes). Season 5 has by far the best finale too

I owe you pain.

Scary Willow is lots of tonnes of fun.

Season 5 was great and very emotional especially;

'The Body' and 'The Gift' made me cry like a baby

After watching season 5 when it first aired, it definitely wasnt my favorites, but after watching it again on my dvd's i will admit that i really enjoyed that season, and although i dont really like dawn...at all season 5 was one of the better seasons.

I've yet to see season seven, but so far season five is my least favorite. It just felt like everything took a dive... for one, Willow. She used to be my favorite character, but... I get the whole now-that-she's-out-she's-more-confident thing, but confidence really does not become her. She just comes off as if she's the mother of the gang and they're her responsibility... I miss insecure Willow. Still, I at least commend the writers for letting her grow, even if not in a direction I liked.

Dawn... whatever. I didn't like her, but she wasn't so bad that she single-handedly ruined the season. She was an interesting foil for the gang. Glory, though... I hated her. She just annoyed me. Boo. I guess overall, I just didn't like the way they took a bunch of the characters. Xander became overly weak, to the point where when he split, the weak side of him was pretty much the same as the sum of his parts (can't tell you how happy I was at the end of season six), Willow became overly confident... well, that and Glory about does it for me.

Which is not to say it's a horrible season. The Body and Fool For Love were some of the best 45 minutes I've ever seen on TV, I loved Spike's character development (even if Buffy is meant for Angel), and Giles

Select to view spoiler:

killing Ben

at the end of the season was a great moment, in that disturbing way. Also, Giles in a robe and wizard hat :)
