Khali, when it comes down to it I just don't understand why'd the ANGEL writers would kill Darla when they haven't done the same for Spike or Dru, Drusilla especially and during a pivotal arc that she could have added more to.

I mean am I the only one seeing the potential Darla had in this Holtz plot? It just seems like a waste to put it mildly.

Concerning the Buffy similarities with the whole baby/Dawn thing, I think you've hit upon something Sherlock! I mean basically the only reason why I'm thinking Darla is gone for good is just to make it easier to accept.

But I still can't help but think it just doesn't make much sense concerning what this season is about.

I mean, you have Holtz but no Darla?

Maybe they'll start showing flashbacks like in season 1 and bring her back near the end during May sweeps as a brand new addition.

Plus, this will go hand in hand with those "Julie signed for the whole year" rumors.

Oo, check it out!

It's Darla v.3!
