V. good review although, kinda worried that you stuck a friends quote in it? why being the only unanswered question, you stick forks in cookies they go all crumbly...

Well, I'd just like to share my thoughts before I head off to my *gulp* dentist appointment.....

- Wood, I still can't stand him. And his whole "I'm way prettier than you" deal is just too much! AAARGH!! I kinda agree with J that the Faith/Wood pairing isn't as unbelievable as I thought it would be, but as I don't like him I wish Faith would do better....come on Fander....

- Am very disappointed how they handle Anya. She gets some nice lines (the cannon fodder one was particularly meta-ish...), but her death is just totally mishandled. She fights for a few seconds, then gets stabbed by a bringer.....and then the next you see is her dead body lying behind a Bringer or two, and THATS IT!! Come on! She deserves much better! Although the Andrew/Xander scene where he tells Xander about Anya's heroism is cute :)

- The cookie-dough speech plays better on screen than it does in the script. Really, I'm not joking, it does!!

- As much as some would disagree, from my non-Spuffyists POV, I'd say that Spike and Buffy get a nice resolution. Yeh, Spike dies, but for christ's sake it isnt permanent, he's on Angel next year!! The whole Spuffy issue gets an ending, which is more than I can say for the rest of the storylines...

- The "Hell's Deep" shot: I loved it. Personally, I loved seeing all the SITs going all out. Vi, Rona, Amanda, even Kennedy kicked major assage. And they all looked cute doing it too :) And, although I knew it was coming, I was still upset that Amanda died. Why not Kennedy? Please?

- Either Joss has forgotten how to write Angel, or DB played him wrong on purpose - either way, Angel wasn't the same in this episode. He was like Goofy-Beige!Angel....

- Caleb kicked ass, as usual, and I wasn't very happy with Miss Hacks-A-Lot for castrating him. Although the black stuff oozing out of his eyes and nose was just icky....


Overall, I liked this episode more than I thought I would. I didn't like that storylines of the season didn't get closure, or that some of the steps they took seemed illogical and Joss didn't bother to back them up with an explanation. Plus, where did The First go???????? But the episode had a lot of great moments, and the pizazz of the episode kept you hooked right up to the bitter, smiley end :)
