The only time I liked the character and what the did with him was when Buffy tormented him into crying to close the gate. It showed he had some realness to him but that was never displayed again. Anyway, I think his lack of fighting skill would have made it more believable if he did just get totally overwhelmed right off the bat in the big final fight.

Gosh, I guess the only thing we all have in common is love of the show. I liked Andrew a lot, and tho' I do agree they could have fleshed him out more, he seemed to get some of the funniest lines- i.e. to provide comic relief. I think for the sake of irony it was right that one of the weakest should survive, and it did leave Anya with hero status, as he described her as *saving my life.* Anya as a hero, _was_ ironic.
I thought it was too bad that other than the big eye gouging scene, they pretty much put Xander out to pasture. It seemed they did little with his character this season.
