I did a ranking of the seasons based on their ratings average on my IMDB and S4 was one of the highest tbh. The story arc sucks but a lot of the individual episodes are great.

the lack of taste...

S6 was for intellectuals... S4 was goddamn awful, outside of Hush, everyone can be erased!

S1 is good-ish but still weak cause they were still trying to find their footing

[The Slayer]

Season 4 is easily the worst season.

 

I really enjoyed Season 7.

[Lion]

Nice! I want to do a rewatch soon in tandem with Angel (which I’ve embarrassingly never watched)

 Just my personal taste. I didn’t like the monster of the week concept & the graphics were terrible in season one

But that season wasn’t the entire season of disappointment like season one.

"Hush" and the Faith-centric episodes only can stay. Rest can GTFO! And maybe S04E21! But yeah. S4 is trash.

[sunbathinganimal]

just finished Conversations With Dead People, amazing episode

there's been a couple duds but so far i'm not understanding the S7 hate, maybe it'll get worse

As I’m rewatching season 4 of Buffy, I think something that also affects this season is that they don’t have a good hangout/research spot.

 

We had the library and then there’s the magic shop next season but this season is Giles’ house. And Xander’s basement? Does California even have basements? 

Point is, it doesn’t feel stable and a bit dangerous. 
 

On the plus side, seeing Tara again just makes me so happy!

Primeval and Restless are amongst the best BTVS episodes ever, what are you girlies on?

Season 4 was definitely messy, but in retrospect, I think it couldn't have worked any other way, it needed to be all over the place because well, most of the characters were all over the place. 

 

Giles didn't have a job as a watcher or librarian, Xander didn't know what to do with his life, Buffy and Willow were college freshmen and some of us know how complicated the first year of college/university can be, you keep trying to hold on to what you know from high school while trying to discover this new world, it can be terrifying. 

 

I think my true main issue with Season 4 is the main villains and The Initiative story arc are poorly executed.  Honestly, who the hell thought having Adam on the show was a good idea?
