I think I could have liked Willow if they hadn't fallen into the trap of writing her as the jealous best friend of the hot girl. She was so obsessed with being desired and powerful because she was insecure and compared herself to Buffy. When she was desired or powerful, she always took things too far and she never stopped to consider other people. Even though Tara was apparently the great love of her life, she didn't behave any differently with her.

Willow and Xander both failed to mature as characters after high school. It's like the writers forgot to have them grow up and be more aware and critical of their own actions. You can kind of see them both looking like they are in the later seasons, but instead of actually being more mature, they just became more critical of other people and felt superior in their own judgements.

I think Whedon's quickly degrading talent and vision also had to do with that.

It's like he became a different man after all the success and even though it's so cliche it's still sad.

His Wonder Woman script was unhinged, could not believe the same man who wrote one of my favorite heroines of fiction would have Diana talked down to and degraded by fucking canonically-chronic-damsel Steve Trevor and some army goons.

Not to mention cheating on his wife or writing comics!Xander hooking up with fucking team little sister Dawn! (Seriously I don't know how fans of the original series can read that dribble and not weep at the "new canon".)

Thank god Jane Espenson is keeping the BVtS legacy respectable and brilliant, she's the true icon honestly.
