Grrr Argggh.... YAYYYYYY!!!

Last night's Buffy was amazing. A strong opening to the seasons, and a return to great characters. Joss Whedon wrote this episode, and it shows. Buffy was back to being a strong character, more focused than she was last season. Dawn was far less annoying, even endearing in some situations. Xander was looking suave in his suit and new car. The scenes with Giles and Willow in England were very well done. They've shelved the whole addiction metaphor, and they aren't punishing her. It's very encouraging
