  The Casual Watcher: Buffy | Studio23 | 07.05.2004
In last night's episode, Willow channeled the power of the scythe and dispersed Slayer power to all girls who had the potential to become Slayers, while Spike wore the amulet that caused the Hellmouth to close and killed the Turok-han, at the expense of his own (undead-wth-soul) life.
It was a fitting end to a ground-breaking series that helped shape lives and has firmly ensconced Buffy as one of the role models of a new millenium.
The last episode of Buffy was a blast, taken either singularly, or as the fitting end to a marvelous series.

 Watcher (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, a Watcher is a member of a secret organization, the Watcher's Council, devoted to tracking and combatting malevolent supernatural entities (and particularly vampires), primarily by locating individuals with the talents required to fight such beings and win.
More specifically, Watchers are assigned to Vampire Slayers, girls that are part of a succession of mythically powered individuals who are destined to face said foes.

Interestingly there is no music in the episode which increases how utterly sad the situation is. When Buffy tells dawn what has happened all we hear is Dawn's anguished crying rather than Buffy actually telling her what has happened.
The way in which we only hear what Buffy actually says to Dawn until after she has leaped into the vortex is a wonderful bit of writing.

The WB and 20th Century Fox, the studio that produces "Buffy," missed a mid-February deadline for reaching a compensation agreement that would have kept "Buffy" on the WB for another season.
"Buffy" is an ode to misfits, a healing vision of the weird, the different and the marginalized finding their place in the world and, ultimately, saving it.
And "Buffy" never takes advantage of viewers' suspension of disbelief; strange things happen in Buffy's universe, but Whedon and his writers don't screw with the mythology for the sake of convenience.

Subject: Re: BUFFY: Watcher Retreat My take on why Giles wasn't invited: There are, all over the world, apparently, slayers waiting to take over for slayers, waiting to take over for slayers (kinda like a royal lineage, they gotta be prepared!) and each slayer has her own watcher.
There are watchers all over the world because although there are potential slayers all over the world, it is never known until the last one dies which one will be called.
