Two
of the series favourites being killed off in heart rending scenes that
didn't leave a dry eye in my house led up to a battle royal between the
forces of god and evil as the series finale.
The gang are prepared to battle all manner of demon and it ends
there, just like a cliffhanger final episode should.
Apparently the ending is the one that Joss Whedon had decided
upon before hearing that his show had been cancelled.
I would have liked seeing the battle itself, given the computer
technology available it would have been fun to see the mythical
creatures and other demons that they could create.
Given
the quality of the majority of the Series 5 it was a complete shame that
they didn't have the chance to finish everything off the way that Joss
Whedon intended. Between
the Angel and Buffy series they have amassed 11 series , quite a feat
when you consider that the original Buffy movie was so completely
woeful.
ANY
SPECIAL FEATURES?
There
are the usual commentaries by cast, writers and producers, which are a
bit dry. The
featurettes were interesting with some of them being quite funny.
I was disappointed with the outtakes, as I would have liked to
see more of them.
Overall the special features were a bit of a let down as I
expected to see more considering it is the end of the series.
