Yeah, I love Joss but he is a coward.

Season 7 is now on Amazon! Currently it's 10th among all DVDs. Season 5 is 77th and Season 6 is 64th.

I have GOT to download Something Blue. Haven't seen it yet.


I like this ----> Because they have a unique and real love story

No more sex. It was too difficult to come back from the stupid attempted rape. But there was implied sex in the final episode of the series.

It's against FF rules to discuss downloading eps...

I agree. James and Sarah were amazing in that scene. You could feel the tension and pain throughout the whole thing.. but I didn't like that the writer's decided to use the AR as the catalyst for Spike getting a soul.

I think since it was a last minute write in the writers didn't truely realize what a huge out cry it would cause.. as seen in the next episode they show Buffy going to Spike's crypt .. she was going to let him take care of Dawn and she even inquires where he went to and how long he would be gone.. for me Rape or Attempted Rape are controverisal enough without making the situation so unclear. I beleive even Jane Espenson said she and some of the other writers were against it and she still till this day thinks the situation was tainted because it was made so unclear.

I would have prefered that the AR was not the catalyst chosen to make Spike want to seek out his soul... but I do see how the writers would have beleived that since this truely was Spike's lowest moment and after he almost hurt the woman he loved in that horrible way that this would be the most devastating thing that could have happened to urge Spike to see he truely did need to change. So while I understand why they chose to the AR I think they could have come up with something a bit less extreme. As it was said after this many Spuffies felt uncomfortable and outraged. Looking back it all folds into the amazing story Spuffy is... but I think they took an unecessary risk with that plot twist and almost lost a huge portion of their fanbase.

When I was on Amazon ten minutes ago, they didn't have an image for season 7. They've now added the Spuffy cover!
