I remember thinking she was the perfect actress to portray this character. And I still do. Season four is a real journey. So many things happened there. My favorite parts are clearly those involving the return of Angelus. Bringing back two Buffyverse characters, before their finale battle in the original show's finale episodes. Was a great way to build momentum. But I like the one involving Utopia as well. It is clearly done to bring closure, to that crazy ride fourth season has been. Even crazier than season 3. It also the moment where lines are blurred, which led to the heroes working for the series former big vilain. I can see ressemblances with previous plot lines, especially those of season two. And some from BTVS as well. But the Jasmine storyline, was like a breath of fresh air, in a very suffocating season. We know is obviously a trick, but that's what makes it so good and intriguing. Personally, I couldn't stand Cordelia, long before she turned evil. So people can say whatever they want, her leaving the series was the best decision. And gave her character a well deserved rest, after everything she went through.
