Ever found a story, be it a book, a movie or a TV-series, that was good in just about every way except that one element that just happened to be one of your berserk buttons? Or perhaps that element doesn't cause enough rage to stop you from watching but you still grit your teeth every time it's in the forefront. Perfect stories are so few and far

When it comes to Joss, I'm not really mad at him for killing Tara (I love her and it's tragic but that's what I love about Joss: he's not afraid of killing off his characters). And he did say that if Willow had still been with Oz, he would have killed Oz, so the death is Willow-focused. I actually love Tara's death b/c it's so shockingly realistic, a bullet amidst all the usual magic chaos. Imho it's a genius idea, on par with Joyce unexpectedly dying after she'd just got better. Storywise, it's rather brilliant. BUT - Kennedy? The quick fix-it? Seriously, Joss? WHY!? At least he didn't have Willow forget Tara completely. I don't know, maybe it's even realistic. Maybe Kennedy was like a crutch Willow needed at that moment (they did break up in the comics, from what I understand...). But heh, it doesn't mean I like the way their relationship played out. It was rushed and felt more like a hole to fill than an actual love story.
