Oh and we had Angel and B/A shoved down our throats. B/A was dead and gone but it had to be dragged in and resurrected to delegitimize spuffy and to pander to B/Aers. That was almost as bad as the AR. But unlike the AR it wasn't in a season that was overall worthwhile. Season 6 was very faulted but it had a lot of positive in it, season 7 had tiny bits of good here and there swimming in a massive sea of sewage. Season 7 HURT me. Maybe I gave the show too much of my heart, that I could be hurt so by it. But that's how it was. Season 7 hurt me, scarred me and I've never recovered from that. It's given me a bitterness and cynicsm in how I view all tv shows ever since. You can only be stabbed in the back like that once, ever after you expect it.
And then Joss went on to totally shit on the character of Spike in season 5 of Angel and to give us easily the worst season in a show that had been declining badly for many seasons. And then we got Not Fade Bloody Well Away. Joss said he wouldn't end it on a cliffhanger and then he bloody well ended it on a cliffhanger. And a horrible episode that left me wanting to puke my guts out. It was as if he was trying to top the horribleness of Chosen and BTVS season 7. And now he wants to come back to the Buffyverse and ruin it more and we're supposed to accept these comics as canon. I say screw that! And screw season 7.
People who know me in Buffy fandom know me as one of the bitterest of Buffy fans. It was season 7 that made me bitter.
