I really liked the 6th series. I liked it for no other reason than I am a bit of a quote buff-y (hehehehe) and I was reminded of William Yeats’ quote “Things fall apart; the center cannot hold\ Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world.” I loved the Trio as villains go. I am glad they were not really the TRUE villains of this season’s and then Willow really fills the role in a big bad kinda way. The whole progression of events is so slickly done, leading towards a very impressive climax. The characters are human and they do bad things. They are super heroes but they are not really heroes at all. It makes them all the better. Buffy is utterly without passion for life and falling into shadow, Dawn is falling apart, Willow is a junkie and then big bad and evil, Anaya and Zander’s love collapses, and Spike swinging from light to dark and back again. Yet in the end the series ends on a high note. Zander’s “use” is confirmed. Buffy regains faith, Spike gets a soul (eat that Angel!) It all works out very well. I wish the Warren hadn’t been so evil though, Willow flipping out and killing Warren would have made her a bit more complex. Those last episodes with Willow loosing it really makes this season. Whedon really knows how to end a season with a lot of power, energy, and grace. The last couple episodes of every season of Angel and so far every season of Buffy have all been amazing, carrying the needed energy right to the last few moments. Season 6 next, and then the final season. It is sad to think it will all be over soon. I have so enjoyed Buffy and Angel. I will have to have the DVDs the series are worth having saved.
