The 25 Worst Seasons of Great TV Shows
23. Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Season 6
(UPN; October 2, 2001 - May 21, 2002)
Buffy's fifth season finale was one for the record books, but the events of that excellent
episode created some serious problems its following season. The result was a sixth
run that didn't quite fit the tone of a show that had built its reputation on its ability to shift
focus from deeply earnest scenes to more light-hearted moments. Yes, Buffy's weakest
season ended up earning more critical accolades than most of the other low points on
this list, but fans still feel some discomfort with its somber events.

Now everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I am tired of how some sites are down on
Season Six and Seven of BTVS. I think Season Six was amazing in how it handled life
changes of the characters. Depression is a fact of life. Many fans of the show found
Buffy's depression a bonding moment. She was so powerful, but deep down, she was
just one of us. Flawed and scared. Willow had her own arc of finding a way to deal with
her power as a witch and how her actions affected those she cared about in life. Xander
made grown up plans and then freaked out breaking Anya's heart. Giles left, came back
and left again. Spike finally got his crumb and his heart broken as well. Dawn came into
her own as a person. Season Six wasn't weak to me.
I find it interesting that this article didn't include Season Four of Angel. That was a horrible
mess. Cordy sleeping with Conner???? There isn't enough brain bleach in the world to get
rid of that image. Also the photo this site used for BTVS isn't from Season Six, it's from Season
Seven. Makes me wonder if the writer of the article isn't a Bangel fan and it colored their opinion.
