The show peaked in S3
Probably, though I think season 2 is up there with it. I like every season of the show, even seasons 6 and 7, but the serialized plots and character drama started taking over the how more than I would have liked, and the balance of the characters started to get thrown off to accommodate it. I love the pulpy B-movie flavor of the first few seasons, and the characters hadn't become unwieldy. Spike is emblematic of where the show went wrong.
More and more I'm convinced that Cordy should have stayed on Buffy. She could have just been Anya but not shitty.
>>217813504Cordelia was great on Angel until the show self-destructed.
>>217813389Season 2 is my favorite. Still had that dark gritty 16mm film and Buffy was still wearing miniskirts. When they switched to 35mm it just wasn't the same, and Buffy started dressing like a middle aged wine aunt
>>217813567They tried their best to evolve her character but it was forced.
>>217813389a lot of shows peak in s3>Psych>Trailer Park Boys>Seinfeldat s3, they've done enough episodes to get a good grasp on how to play their characters without the flanderization that inevitably comes with later seasons.
>>217813567Not really, she was useless and annoying and the whole "half demon healer" arc in season 3 was fanfiction-tier trash. I was glad when they finally killed her off. She was way better on Buffy, serving as Buffy's foil and rival
Wish they did more with Faith, would have much preferred her to Spike S4 was just dumb with the whole underground base and Anya
>>217813389You fuckers watched that shit???
>>217814032I goon for she
>>217814032Yeah. It's a good show, coom-anon.
>>2178133895
>>217813389Great show, Veronica Mars
>>217814032I like adorably chubby Allison.
>>217813592yeah i love the look of season 2
>>217813389the movie was better and hand Rutger Hauer hamming it up exquisitely
3 > 1 > 2 > 6 > 5 > 7 >>>>>> 4spikes arc and willows / buffy's self destruction is the only good thing in the second half of the showthe show peaked hard on S3 as the dynamics between Buffy and Faith just carried the show. Villain is also the best by far. Still mad Faith didn't get a spin off or anything because of Dushku being such an arrogantbitch (tbf that's why the character works)
>>217813504Anya was awesome though
>>217813980don't know why they didn't give her a bigger role on either Buffy or Angel, one of the two, but I guess she was busy starring in B-grade horror flicks
