Best of 2003: Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season 7

It was always going to be a difficult season. And yes, parts of it didn't work; the main storyline dragged on somewhat; Caleb should have been introduced much earlier in the season. But episodes like "Storyteller", "Lies My Parents Told Me", and the heart-wrenching "Conversations With Dead People" showed that the writers were still able to produce fantastic television. The finale, "Chosen", ended too quickly, but it was a powerful hour, combining tragic loss, bunnies, the ultimate redemption of a character long lost, the amusing fate of Sunnydale, and an ending that promises that the story has only just begun. Yay for Joss Whedon!
