Well, I contemplated going straight into the bathtub with a toaster, but settled on sinful amounts of chocolate ice cream, instead.

But didn't you see how happy he looked when he "saw fred" and knew he would be with her once more?

Couple of my fav. lines that haven't been mentioned yet were Connor's (which is weird, because I never really though his character was all that great):
Angel: "I have really great handwriting."
Connor: "You girl."
Connor: "You stop by for a cup of coffee and the world's NOT ending? Come on." --classic Joss dialogue
"You didn't have to wound that man."
"Yeah, I know. It was just funny."

Their are ways of filming to make one look bigger than the other... i know that Adam Baldwin is quite strapping, but it could be possible that they filmed adam a lot closer than they did David.... just a thought.

To add another favorite line that hasn't been mentioned (and could be paraphrasing slightly here, since if I go rewatch it I'll start crying again) --
Angel: "You people who don't care about anything never understand the one who do."
Hamilton: "Yes, but we don't care."

re: the end
It was perfect. absolutely perfect. I suppose I can see why some might be mad about it, thinking it lacks closure, but I think it couldn't and shouldn't have been any different. Just as Buffy and the Scooby's were talking about going to the mall right after the apocolypse in "Chosen", which is so very Buffy, this ending was unique to AtS. And, btw, it's gotten me off the spoilers for good. Because omg was it an amazing feeling to see
Select to view spoiler:
"Guest stars- Vincent Karthesier (or however it's spelled)" and have the reaction be "omg! omg! Connor! Connor's gonna show up!!", as opposed to knowing beforehand. Or, you know, going "omg! omg! it's Anne!! that's AWESOME!" when she showed up. (I did quite a bit of omg-ing tonight...).
Anyhoo, kudos to Joss and everyone else at ME. oh, and a huge thanks to Jeff Bell, for (co-) writing and directing a great finale.

And speaking of lines, don't forget:
"I want you, Lindsay."
Okay, maybe it's just me, but I couldn't stop laughing at that one.

What a great ending! The only thing that was missing was Buffy at his side. OH and another fricken season!!
Firefly, Angel, Farscape... all gone. Sniff, and yet ER, and Everyone Loves Raymond is going to back, no justice. That's it, no more TV (except for CBC hockey and Olympics coverage. Oh OK, and Stargate...
"Well personally, I want to slay the dragon. Let's get to work!"

I don't get how Gunn took on a whole room of vampires and won. I mean, even Buffy never took on more than a room full of vamps alone and she's a freakin' Slayer! What's his power?
Gunn mentioned his peeps coming along to help out. Gah, what did he call them, the fang gang? There was a subtle reference to them when Gunn asked Anne about whether they were keeping the vamps in check around her halfway house. It was yet another loose end thread which needed to be tied up, Gunn's street roots.
I honestly had a dream with Adam Baldwin in it *last* night. I can't wait to see what I dream about tonight.
