I'm also a new Buffy fan. My boyfriend drug me into it, and it's horrible because as soon as I start to love the show it's over! (Although thankfully he's loaned me his collection of season 7 he taped from FX).
I was utterly crushed when Anya died. She was always the comic relief! I also thought that Xander would be just a tad more upset when he found out she died. I mean the "That's my girl" line was cute, but I still think he loves her.
And what was with Spike dying? I thought it was cool that he was the one that saved them ultimately in the end, but did have to die doing it? I really do think Buffy loved him. Does anyone think she'll go back to Angel now that Spike is dead? Guest appearances are always an option.
My boyfriend and I have discussed this, and he thinks there will be some kind of new slayer spin-off. He seems to think Kennedy will have her own show. I sure hope not! She was a bit to bratty for me.
I just can't believe it's over.
