For some insane reason, last night I sat through the whole of that film 'Kate and Leopold'. I felt like scrubbing my brain clean with a brillo pad afterwards. I was bored and I thought getting to look at Hugh Jackman for an hour and a half might redeem it. No.
On a different note, I've been thinking about the whole 'Willow getting away with torture and murder lightly' thing and was wondering what Andrew's feelings on the whole sorry matter were. We don't really get much interaction between Andrew and Willow in season 7 and I think that was a shame.
We know that despite everything, Andrew in S7 still has strong feelings for Warren, so surely Andrew would at least be a little bit miffed at his murderer. He makes a big deal about his own redemption so what does he think of Willow's? Perhaps Andrew being Andrew might believe that Willow has a get out of jail free card on account of her being one of the Scoobies but still, there has to be some resentment there. I don't think I'd enjoy living in the same house as the person that killed my lover.

Most likely that people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

As much as I like W/A it's not canon. The show couldn't deal with that aspect because the W/A relationship exists on a totally subtextual level. You and I may see it as being canon, but it's not actual it happened on the show and it should have been dealt with canon. Yes it does suck that the show never dealt with Willow's guilt over Warren's murder. The scooby double standard at play. However Warren did kill Tara and almost killed Buffy, his hands weren't clean.
As far as ME not being "brave enough" to tackle the complexities of Andrew/Warren gay male ships, vs Willow/Tara and Willow/Kennedy. Willow is a core cast memeber her relationships are important. Andrew and Warren were villains, reaccuring villains but villains none the less. In season six and seven the show was drowning beneath the various character threads, there wasn't enough time to go through the complexities of Warren and Andrew. Not only that but again, W/A is a fanon ship. It's fanon they were shagging.

Definitely! I'm sure that's the reason he never said anything what with him being a stabby murderer and all as well, I just wondered in an out loud pondery kind of way what he was thinking.

Totally. It can be taken as canon that Andrew followed Warren fanatically but not much more than that.

Not forgetting Katrina! I don't think you'd get many contradicting you there. Warren is not a nice chap.

And that's a whole different can of worms! As you say, too many characters, not enough time.
