The second part of season 6, is by far the best. The hate Doublemeat Palace is getting, is uncalled for. Dead Things is deliciously disturbing. With that hauntingly beautiful Bush song, during the Buffy/Spike almost late night rendezvous. But is cut short during one of the most intense scenes. While Older and Far Away, is a good filler episode, where all the characters get more build up, this season. As You Were, is a great episode. Everything make sense, and everything seems to be at the right place, at the right time. SMG's acting was a little off so far this year, but As You Were, showed her back to more nuanced emotions. Which fits her acting the most, I think. The part where Buffy finally puts an end to her toxic affair with Spike, is the most logical way for her to step into the light. Which she does, literally. And a glimmer of hope to viewers who thought writers lost sight of what these characters were, and what they represented.
