Can people please explain why they hate Kennedy so much? I mean, I admit it took me a little while to warm to her, but I'm not in any hurry to see her get killed, (unlike the redhead with the pathetically fake English accent).
I think she'd make a great addition to any future spin-off. Maybe not as the leading character, but certainly one of the series regulars. Besides, no way would they kill of Willow's lover 2 seasons in a row. That's almost as unlikely as Buffy getting killed yet again.
And if you need any other reason to keep her in the show, the actress is fine-as-hell. (Seriously, anyone want to argue with me on that point?). Just give the character some time to develop a little more before signing her death warrant!
As for everyone else after the series finale:
Xander - I really can't see him making the transition to a spin-off. I just don't see what purpose that would serve. That doesn't necessarily mean killing him off, (I don't think the fans would forgive that one).
Anya - Probably gets killed off. There's really nothing left to do with her character.
Spike - Not too sure about this one. A grand sacrafice would be a great way to end the character, but I keep remembering an interview with James Marsters discussing the plans for the next spin-off. Which begs the question - why has he been told about it if he's not going to be invloved?
Buffy - Another death would just be completely unbelievable. I'm guessing they'll find another way to write her out.
Dawn - Again, could go either way. I don't see her in a future spin-off though. It would be too difficult to explain her presence in the absence of Buffy.
Giles - No way are they killing him off!
Faith - Much as I hate to admit it, I reckon she's toast.
Andrew - Killing him serves no real purpose, though I suppose they could just count him as collateral damage.
Willow - Definite survivor with spin-off potential.
So, who's spin-off do we think is coming first then - Willow or Giles?
