Stupidist Curse Ever

[ithildin]

Yes. I realize I ranted about this ten + years ago, but it deserves a retrospective. We're rewatching Buffy, and we're at the end of S2. Now, I adore the angst and the tragedy, but that being said, the curse is idiotic, and no amount of reveiwing the series has changed my mind. Angel had nothing to do with what Angelus did when the demon took over his body - Liam/Angel was not in residence as it were. So they bring back Liam's soul, moment of happiness, yada yada. YERGH!! It drives me nuts, I must rant. Okay, I feel better. Not really, but you know :)

And (ten+ years so I could be misremembering) didn't the gypsies in question wind up basically enslaving their descendants to the maintenance of the curse? I thought that's why Jenny Calendar was there.

Yep, that's what they did.
