    I watched for Willow, Giles, Cordelia and Spike.

    Angel was better sans Buffy.

    Buffy got boring because they leaned into the child soldier and she just gave up trying to have any kind of normalcy in her life.

    Then again its been nearly a decade so I could be misremembering.

      I thought that from S5, after her mom and then she died, that it was the best part of the series. It stopped being as campy and showed much more character growth all around.

      I watched for Willow, Giles, Cordelia and Spike.

      I used to joke that spike should vamp faith, then together they kill buffy and rename the show: Faith and Spike, the Vampires.

        I’d be into that show for sure. Or Spike turns Faith and Buffy and they go off as a triad. Always thought Spike and Faith were better for Buffy than Angel.

          Faith and Spike were the much cooler bearded-evil-dimension versions of Buffy and Angel, for sure.
