Dammit! You know what? I’m sick of this crap.

CaptainWacky

I want to smell dark matter
I’m sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it’s over. I’m finished being everybody’s butt-monkey!
 
The Chumash tribe will be disappointed to hear this.
 
The Chinaman won't!
 
Hey hey we're the butt monkeys, people say we butt monkey around.
 
I'll never tell.
 
I don't get why Buffy brought Anya, Andrew and Dawn along to the final battle at Sunnydale High when she had so many Ponetial Slayers (who were going to become Slayers.) Giles, Xander, Robin, sure they're all experienced fighters, but was it really essential to have fucking Andrew and Anya guarding a door? Plus, you know, it was DAYTIME so why the fuck were they guarding the doors anyway?

Yeah, Buffy just wanted them to die.
 
We have to try
We'll pay the price
It's do or die
Hey, I've died twice!


I think by that point, she came to see dying as a minor setback.
 
The Turok-Han army's performance in the final battle of the series is noticeably worse than the performance of the first Turok-Han. While the first Turok-Han nearly killed Buffy, forcing her to use every possible resource to defeat it the second time around, the later Turok-Han seem evenly matched against the newly activated Slayers and even normal humans such as Xander and Dawn. In the audio commentary for the episode, creator Joss Whedon explains he is aware of the continuity issue with the Turok-Han's powers. He acknowledges that early in the season the demon was nearly unstoppable, yet in the final episode the Slayers can defeat the Turok-Han much more easily. Whedon explains that the story behind the season/episode he wanted to get across to viewers was more important than the continuity.
 
(Bee tee dubs I have this theory that Whedon wrote "Lessons" and "Chosen [which incidentally I really rather would have been titled 'One Girl in All The World', but whatevs]" at the beginning of the year, then basically left to run Firefly and Angel and gave the writing B-team the assignment of figuring out how they'd get from point A to point B.)
 
That would explain all the sitting around the house episodes.
 
But not quite the "let's give Andrew a camcorder and maybe a spinoff" episode.
