Season 8


Let me see:

The world can't handle there being more than one empowered woman (possibly two) in it. Such a thing  throws the balance of the entire universe so out of whack that a sentient universe convinces a man to think for the poor little woman, lying to and manipulating her,  while the universe places her in what looks a lot like heat so as to 'birth' an apocalypse that has extreme mommy-issues. 

And the only way to stop this apocalypse is to strip another set of women of their magical powers.

What's wrong with this picture?

It's awful. With #40 Joss has literally destroyed *everything* I loved about Buffy. It makes not reading s9 a no brainer, though. I have less than zero interest in this Buffy. :(

(I keep trying to pinch myself - Joss took a beautiful, complex, strong young woman and turned her into a self-centered, shallow brat. I'd not thought it possible.)
