Too much negativity is bad for the soul. Let's try to look to the good stuff, okay?

- It is the SCARIEST season. Despite being a horror show (supposedly), 'Buffy' was almost never actually scary. In season 7, we suddenly got the ultra-creepy First Evil, who scared the bejesus out of me in episodes like 'Lessons' and 'Conversations With Dead People'. Yeah, sure, he wasn't the most consistent villain, but when he was on his A-game, he was TERRIFYING. We also got Gnarl, which was actually a bit TOO scary for the relatively lighthearted episode it was in, but was still positively terrifying. And then we got Caleb, who beat Buffy like she was a ragdoll, and had a fondness for, well, this:

- It felt truly BIG and GLOBAL. More than any other season, season 7 really brought the sense of importance to Buffy's fight - we saw potentials hunted throughout the world (Istanbul, Germany, England...), we saw that council exploding over in Britain, we saw a huge army of vampire orcs waiting to sweep over the earth, we saw people from all over the world coming to Buffy for safety and to help in the fight... And in the final episode, we saw how Buffy's spell affected people GLOBALLY, as Buffy herself left Sunnydale behind her and went out to the world.

- The HISTORY. After seven years, every character had a ton of emotional baggage motivating him/her, and that made every single scene more powerful than it had the right to be. Something as simple as seeing Buffy looking at an old picture of her and her friends could make me cry. And when the past was tackled more directly, hoo boy:
