My problem with having Giles' grandmother as evil is (while I havn't read pretty maids all in a row in some time), she didn't seem evil. It doesn't really make sense for her to suddenly become this bad guy figure. Also, depending on when she was frozen she would remember Spike's slayer killing rampage during WW2.

The key was created to open the doors between dimensions, why would she be able to go all jedi?

If Willow can restore the soul of any vampire, why doesn't she just restore the soul of all vampires?

The hellmouth is a portal to the dimension all the pure demons go, why would all the old BBs be there?

I just really don't like the idea of Quentin as a demon, it makes the whole thing about the slayer being a person, not a tool of the council less important because he isn't human, which is why it's such a big thing that he can treat someone that way.

Why would Dru try and take away Spike's soul? Even without a soul he spurned her. She's insane, not stupid.

How does Kennedy know she's going to be the new slayer?

Why would Anya call her kid Dawn? When was the last time we saw a Anya/Dawn conversation (I mean a proper one, not like when they were talking about doing stuff to Andrew)

There's too many bads in there:
The council as a whole
D'hoffren
The Dark One
The Bringer
All the previous big bads
The pure-demons in the hellmouth (Even with superpowers, I doubt Buffy would survive 10 minutes in the hellmouth)
DemonQuentin

It's too complex, I think the bad guys need to be pretty simple. We should just pick one idea rather than trying to combine them all. Try and make everyone happy, and no-one ends up happy.

You know I am not fond of the Drusilla taking spikes soul and Anya being preg. but someone suggested it, and this post was set to combine everyones ideas in one post so we dont have to keep looking at all of these different posts. And when I was writing it, I was like, where would Andrew live? then I was like okay I'll just put him in the house for now....Shouldnt the housing authority be there or something!?!?! lol

I suggested Anya being pregnant, when someone else writes it, it sounds like a bad idea :)

If Andrew and all the SITs stay in the house, do you think Buffy's house could officially become a commune? It might help on the tax!

And hey! I just realised you didn't include my four horsemen idea.... although adding that into the list would just make it stupidly complicated
