sombrefanWe move onto what could have happened in season 5:
It was not Charisma they wanted for the 100th episode, it was Sarah Michelle Gellar. Thankfully Charisma was the right choice in the end. Though it would have been interesting to see Buffy put Angel back on the right track.
Sarah wanted to be in the finale, Joss wanted her in the Rome episode. Schedules, a death of a relative, and too high a price for Fox to pay all played apart in the no feature of Buffy. Meanwhile the fans nearly tore themselves about the thought of her appearing.
In the Rome episode, Dawn opened the door to Angel and Spike. Not Andrew.
The finale was always intended to be written as a season finale, not a series finale.
There is other stuff but its minor. Those are the big ones.
