katlinel for pointing me to this essay on BtVS, which is great account of a fan's ambivalent relationship with the object of her devotion.

Date: 2003-10-25 04:06 pm (UTC)but Season Four was the first time a sizeable number were trashing a whole season. What was it about Season Four? I have friends who say it was Angel's departure. These same people prefer Angel to Buffy. As they are clearly insane, I'll discount them. (They also think "Once More, With Feeling" 6.7 is the worst Buffy episode ever, so you can rest easy with my dismissal of their opinions.)
But then, I couldn't stand Angel the character. Ewwww! So season 4 - everything got a lot better for me. But then, I do think that 'Buffy' is the least interesting character in BtVS, as is 'Angel' in AtS.
As I'm sure I've ranted at you many times before. ;-)
