Favorite Season of Buffy?

[Figure this should be safe and won't get any pedantic arguments/fights. But you never know with the Buffy fandom. At any rate, mind my blood-pressure in responses, I have a sinus head-ache from hell and a hellish work week with crazy bureaucrats and pedants. This is a mild distraction.]

[ETA: Almost wish I asked where you are in the viewing of series. Are you brand new to the series, watched it live in the 1990s-2003 (and since seen it 20 times or more, okay that may be an exaggeration...then again maybe not), or only watched the first three seasons all the way through and haven't seen most of the later seasons yet...although not really sure it matters one way or the other..]

I love Doppelgangland and Lover's Walk. There are a lot of good episodes in Season three, but I was a person who was happy that Angel was gone and groaned when he popped back up. The Bangel stuff was unbearable that season. Everything else worked okay. I'm not a huge Faith fan but her arc was interesting. I love Oz. But it's not a season I re-watch often because there's no Spike in it. My fandom is mostly focused on Spike.

I've come to realize that a lot of my feelings regarding the series are associated with Spike. S1 and S3 have the least Spike. So being an insane Spike fan, it makes sense these are my least favorite. There are other reasons of course...but I remember when I did a re-watch about three-four years ago and thinking, whoa...there's no Spike, I'm bored. Angel is frigging boring.
LOL! In a couple of years, if I re-watch again, I may change my mind.
