This season of Buffy hadn't been the best, IMO. I have always felt that the honour went to the Buffy/Angel arc in the second year...
However, now I look at this season in its entirety, this perhaps comes close.
Some of the episodes have been simply brilliant. Some entertaining series openers, Buffy/Spike arcs, and then the masterpiece that was "The Body" and the episodes surrounding that. Then, the end of the series was also excellent, most notably the last two episodes.
"The Gift" aired tonight, and it was breathtaking. Buffy at its peak [only matched by "Becoming", and a few others]. Brilliant script work, brilliant acting, and a plot of plots... The episode was spellbinding from beginning to end, and had that 'Joss Whedon touch'...
This excellent year made up for the just slightly better than good season that was 4... The Initiative - Phooey...
So, Glory was perhaps a little weak mid-season, but her finale performances made up for it.
Still in shock from the episode.

That was an amazing episode and had me nearly in tears Indeed, the scene with Buffy's body at the end, and Spike breaking down... Unfortunately, I am without the magic of Sky... Still, S6 begins next month on BBC2...

I have watched Buffy since season 1. I have really enjoyed the show. Until this season that is. I don't want to get into it too much and ruin it for any of you that have not gotton to see it yet. How far behind is the show in the UK? Any way, I also started watching Angel since it started. In my opinion, Angel is by farrr the superior show.

I have to admit I do prefer Angel now, but not because I feel Buffy has gotten worse, I just think Angel is grittier and just a superior show. But I do still adore Buffy
