Yeah, I also didn't like how even though in the convos that the scoobs had in the premiere of season six that implicated that Willow, Tara, Anya, and Xander had been plotting the resurrection together, later in the season everyone acts like Willow did it herself. I can believe that Xander was probably confused or mislead but I find it hard to believe that a 1,000 year old ex-demon (who cast spells when she was human) and a hereditary witch were unaware of the ramifications of such a spell.
Very true. The addiction thing was hamfisted. Yeah, it had been used to get people high (ie Ripper) but it came out of nowhere.
It's that the writers gave her a bunch of scenes of brutality with next to no scenes to intellectually push her in the direction or argue her case.
Exactly.
It was a real shame that they never showed Willow with that coven, maybe going through a magic trial, or a trance-like ritual to face her crimes. Its like all this stuff must have happened off screen yet the show just ignores it. Though season seven's biggest problem is that it doesn't tie up the loose ends of season six so everyone's development is shafted.
Yeah, Kennedy is alright. I thought she was good for Willow. Its just too bad that the writers wrote the potentials as they did.
