Potential
Okay, I just realised how unfair I've been... considering I've written well over 500 words on the things that could have been better in season seven, and only 6 words on this thread... there are some good things about season seven that other people haven't mentioned yet. I do apologise for writing 'caleb and anya. that is all.' Wasn't really within the spirit of the thread.
-Great new characters. Principal Wood, Cassie Newton, and okay, shoot me, but I actually quite liked some of the potentials. Chloe and Molly, shame they died, but even Kennedy and oh boy, I actually liked Rona. They had there own voice, and I loved that Rona didn't give in to the whole 'your a potential for a reason' crap. Kennedy was -amazing-. She had a spirit, not a slayer spirit, or even a warrior spirit, but her own knowledge of herself was quite inspiring, for me.
-They really upped the volume on fight scenes. I loved in Bring On The Night, the confrontation between the ubervamp and Buffy- seriously, the moves that the Ubervamp had, were the best I've ever seen. The vineyard scene at the end of Dirty Girls was so clear in its action, I loved seeing the potentials tackle on the bringers. It really improved
-They kept the trio. Yeah, yeah I know most people hate them but Tom Lenk, Danny Strong and Adam Busch are fantastic actors. Acting was never a strong point for BTVS, so keeping three great actors was a smart move. I loved Storyteller coz of this.
-Dirty Girls, Conversations With Dead People and Selfless would definately make my best buffy episodes list
-Loved seeing Juliet Landau again, even if half the time, she was the first. She's a terrific actress and Drusilla is one of my favourite characters.
