There's an alternate reality in which Angel Season 4 and Buffy Season 7 crossed over at the end for a gigantic extravaganza where they all took on the First and Jasmine together. Might not have worked, but I would have loved to see it.

It's that kind of meta that makes Supernatural a national treasure.
I adored "Alpha and Omega", I think it was the perfect finale. It wasn't a total fireworks factory, but neither was "Swan Song" and everyone loves that. It all came down to making peace at the end, and had the rare everyone lives ending, which the show had really earned by that point.
Honestly I think they should get to episode 300 (the stated goal of Jensen and Jared), and then stop. This can't exactly turn into the Simpsons. But on the other hand, this show is so amazing that just a couple of weeks ago, in the middle of their 12th year on the air, they aired an episode as good as any the show has…
Gotta love how in the comics they make one stray reference to Kennedy and Willow splitting up and then she never shows up again.
Maybe it would have helped if they had cast an actress with even a smidgen of chemistry with Hannigan, instead of someone who constantly came across as smug and judgmental.
Here's mine: 5, 6, 11, 4, 3, 8, 10, 2, 7, 9, 1. I regret nothing.
*looks off into the distance* I haven't heard that name in a long time…
I suppose just in terms of that then yeah, it matters, but it was literally just Joss Whedon thinking he was throwing all us gays a bone after killing off Tara and it was patronizing as hell.
I love Spike to death, he was my favorite thing about Buffy for a long time, and even I realized they were overdoing it in Season 7.
Some call it representation, I call it pandering to every straight guy who wants a girl-on-girl scene. Willow and Tara was representation, because they actually meant something to each other. Willow and Kennedy had no connection, no meaning, nothing except shallow sex shot like a porn film.
I think I was that person over at CT to be quite honest with you. "The Man Who Would Be King" is indeed one of the very best, if not the best hour the show ever produced.
Opinions vary. Personally I think Season 11 hit a peak of quality the show hadn't seen since Season 5, and the current Season 12 is doing a decent job of keeping up the momentum. I just respect Supernatural a lot because the actors have never gotten bored with it, never phoned it in, and they all seem legitimately…
So glad that happened, because Charisma Carpenter deserved it so much more than SMG. Cordelia needed to have *something* at the end, and thankfully they delivered.
Yeah, you got me there. I guess the whole mythology fits together just barely if you really give it some thought (and I should know, I've made sense of the entire X-Files mythology).
Still left a bad taste in my mouth. Why even include the scene? Comic relief? Buffy used to avoid lowbrow titillation like that (see also, the abhorrent Willow/Kennedy sex scene from "Touched")
Castiel's season 6 arc was so much better than Willow's season 6 arc. With Castiel the writers actually weren't afraid to pull the trigger on having him do terrible things, no drug metaphors required. And even better, I still think Castiel's motivation that season was entirely understandable and he legitimately chose…
In tone and characterization maybe, but there was no magical/paranormal component. It was definitely a successor in some fashions, but Supernatural did a lot of it better, and keeps on doing it to this very day, to the show's immense credit.
The first 9 episodes of this season were great. "Beneath You", "Same Time, Same Place", "Selfless", and "Conversations with Dead People" were all amazingly good. The last two of those belong in any Top 10/20 episodes of Buffy list worth its salt. "Never Leave Me" was the last episode where I still felt like I was…
Haha, I'm pretty sure I came close to getting banned a few times. I will have to disagree with you about Season 6 though, the other three episodes that got a perfect score on there ("After Life", "Dead Things", "Normal Again") really did deserve it. Of course that's probably just a matter of taste.
